Publisher's summary

Cora Bellamy is a woman who thrives on organization. She's successfully run her own dog training business for years, perfectly content with her beloved rescue pitbull as the main man in her life. She's given everything to her business, and her lack of social life (or slobber-free clothes) has been completely worth it.

But all that changes when she meets Charlie Gill, the hottest client she's ever had. The only problem? Charlie's taken. Luckily, Cora has a new friend - the sweet, lovably geeky Eli Crawford. More loyal than a retriever, he's always there to help Cora with her problems, including her love life. That's why she's shocked to realize that even as things start heating up with Charlie, there might just be a more-than-friends spark between her and Eli, too.

As Cora's life gets more tangled up than a dogwalker's leashes - and as she prepares to audition for a dog-training TV show that may irrevocably change her entire life - she has to figure things out before it all goes straight to the dogs.

Charming, witty, and warm-hearted, Life on the Leash inspires you to cheer for every underdog looking for love.

Cute book ruined by questionable main character

This could have been a great story but the fact that the main character “rehomed” a few dogs without the owner’s permission really ruined it for me.

Who Let the Dogs Out!

I make a point of listening to one dog book every week and I was worried this would be one of those books that is basically a romance with an occasional reference to dogs, like the other book by this author, "Who Rescued Who". That was about 75% romance and 25% dog at best. I don't know how I ended up with this book after reading that one but this one really let the dogs out and flipped the ratio to about 75% dog. A little romance doesn't hurt because dogs bring people together but it can quickly suffocate the more appealing dog narrative if you're not careful. This one found just the right balance. Dogs have people in their lives so you have to spend some time with them too but the dog is what sells the book. This book had a rather large cast of dog characters and the main human was a dog trainer so dogs and dog issues stayed front and center.
