The Dog That Talked to God by Jim Kraus is about a woman named Mary who decides to get a dog for companionship after her husband passes away. She names the dog Rufus and what a tale tale they tell! This book starts out a bit slow, but stick with it. I loved Rufus and I grew to like Mary too as the book went on. It has some good stuff that I did not see coming and a great ending! It's worth the read!(Gerard's review)The Dog That Talked to God by Jim Kraus is about a bitter widow who blames God for taking away her husband and son who died in an auto accident when hit by a drunk driver more than about the dog. Mary doubted her faith and stopped praying to God for a long time. She got a puppy she named Rufus and used it as a sounding board. Then one day the dog talked to her. This Christian fiction book dragged along for me but at least had a good ending. I preferred the author’s other book better—The Cat That God Sent. (Karen's review,3 stars) I really enjoyed reading this book. Rufus was my favorite character and he made me laugh on several occasions. I liked how the main character Mary narrated the story. Her perspective on life and God was an eye opener. Change can be scary, especially moving away from family or friends. Mary proved that it can be done but the transition wouldn't be easy. I wish Rufus would have talked more. I have a schnauzer and I can just imagine her saying the same things to me. The ending was sweet however I was disappointed that Rufus changed. Overall this book was pretty good and I had a good time reading it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved Mary's quirkiness. I'd highly recommend it!
