One of my favorites in this series. It concentrates mostly on Lizzie growing up and figuring out to balance her passion for dogs with the other elements of her life.

I think it made me cry because it was so cute and so warm and so loving.

Their vet asks the Petersons to foster Teddy, a Pomeranian. He is a very yappy dog and his owners had asked that she perform surgery so he couldn't bark. Instead she suggested that another home be found for Teddy. As the Petersons discover, Teddy does bark A LOT and Lizzie is determine to teach him to not bark as much and find him the perfect home.

Though this book is a quick read and directed at elementary-aged children, I found it entertaining. There is a learning experience and a puppy tip at the end. It is written in third person perspective and first person from Teddy's point of view. It is the twenty-eighth in the Puppy Place series, which currently has 64 books in the series, and works as a stand alone.

This is a great kids book! It has a great plot. Would definitely not read when tired. Yesterday on March 3rd I was skipping a bunch of the pages and just quit reading it. I was close to rating it a 1 without really reading it (yesterday).

I would recommend this book to young readers that love dogs. There's an entire series of these books, of different dogs, and different characters.

Love that Teddy will be a hearing dog what a great training job to get him to stop barking. So much energy in something so tiny.

My son read this book at school and brought it home and said I had to read it. It was such a great book. I love the end as well. This is such a good book for young readers who are also dog lovers.

Another cute book read with Eliza. She adored this book, and I enjoyed it as well.

Teddy is a sweet little Pomeranian, but looks like a little orange teddy bear. His original owners were going to remove his vocal cords. The vet refused and decided to find him a new home. So, a girl cares for and turns him into a hearing dog.


I loved the book because Teddy gets to a lovely home where he will be happy.

This book was OK. It wasn't really wonderful. Nothing special. It would be great for starting reading.
