The Hallelujah Chorus

Sequel to The Maxim Chronicles, A Year with a Champion Poodle, this book continues the story of the Jordan family and their beloved dogs who gave so much richness to their lives. Follow Hallelujah, the beautiful white bitch, as she herself goes to 'The Show', wins armfuls of ribbons and prizes, then retires to making puppies. The journey repeats as Halle's best black bitch, Valmara's Highland Fling Bonnie Doon, also wins Best Puppy in Show, and thrills her family all over again. You'll learn more than you ever wanted to know about Poodles, grooming, breeding, obedience training, encounters with vermin, and vets. But this is not just a book about dogs. It is also about people, families, and relationships, laced with irony and humour. Interspersed in all this dog lore the author explores ideas in philosophy, religion, consciousness and life. Anyone who has ever owned a dog knows already the truth of Will Rogers declaration: 'If there are no dogs in heaven, I don't want to go there.'
