Mis-Chipped is yet another fun addition to the Doodlebugged Mysteries series. This well written book will delight any dog lover as it is seen through the eyes of Doodle, a labradoodle owned by Molly and her Dad. Doodle sniffs out bedbugs for his family's bedbug detection business but rather than following his work, this book highlights adventures and mysteries that are encountered by Doodle and Molly and her friend Grady and his dog Snippet. Humor is often inserted as Doodle tries to understand why humans do and say the things they do. Every good mystery has to have a few good villains and this one has several. You just have to find out who they are. There is also some good teaching on the importance of microchipping your dog. I've read all six books in this series and have become fond of the reoccurring characters that surround the lives of Molly and Doodle. What mystery will they uncover next?

I have read all of her books, and they are so very enjoyable. I will never look at my dog the same way any more! Susan is so very entertaining, you don't want to put the book down!

A readers delight!

Each of the Doodle books was a delight!
Well written, well woven plots plus
Daddy-daughter relationship that keeps on growing. I will patiently wait for December when #7 Doodle is published.
Thank you Susan for the nourishing entertainment!

Perfect

I think that justice was served, and maybe adults need to give children more credit for being model citizens. I like it when evidence puts the crooks in jail and makes the world a better place.

"Mis-Chipped", the number six in the delightful series of Doodle mysteries, successor to Susan J. Kroupa's "Bed-Bugged", "Out-Sniffed", "Dognabbed", "Bad-Mouthed", and "Ruff-Housed", is entertaining, thoughtful, and a book you can't put down!
"Mis-Chipped" is as important as it is fun.
Doodle, the skilled, perceptive, and tolerant Labradoodle, more poodle than Labrador, once again observes and comments on the often incomprehensible actions of those around him. People are simply not as astute or logical as dogs, much to Doodle's confusion and dismay.
This is an exciting book, full of useful information for those who aren't as familiar with the world of dogs or with dog flyball or with chipping pets. Perhaps more importantly, it is also truthful in its description of human relationships, not sugar-coating any problems but offering a hopeful optimism that everything can turn out all right at the end. Kids are able to persuade clueless adults to listen to them.
This is a book for everyone, of all ages, whether living with or without housepets. It is thrilling and heartwarming, entertaining and comforting, while at the same time informative and optimistic. Do yourself a favor! Buy this book, read this book, and then buy it for others and tell them to read it.
