The Truth About the Puppy

an honest picture book for begging children and tired parents

by Dr. Jay

You asked for a puppy.
You begged and you cried.

You promised you’d walk her.
You promised. You lied.

A picture book that tells the truth about getting a dog: the chewed shoes, the early-morning walks, the years of love, and the long goodbye at the end. For the family who has asked, for the family who is about to, and for the family who has loved a dog all the way through.

Coming 2026
