Bad Dog

 

Written & Illustrated by Mike Boldt

When a little girl finally gets the dog she wanted for her birthday she tries to teach it all the dog tricks she know. But Rocky is a bad dog. Rocky doesn’t listen or obey like a dog should. Instead of running and barking, Rocky lies in the sun and howls. What is the problem? You will have fun reading this story of Rocky who, although his new owner insists is a dog, is really a cat!
