I just read 'The Art of Racing in the Rain' by Garth Stein. The book is not about a sheltie but the entire story is told by the dog Enzo, and is his perspective on his life and how it plays out. It is one of the best books I have read in a long time, and I recommend it to anyone who likes stories with a dog. It made me laugh, made me cry and made me smile which in my world usually means it is great!
