If you read "Short Funny Dog Detective Story" and think - Oh that might be nice, you will likely enjoy this book. If you think "Ee gads" you should likely skip it. I modestly enjoyed it. This is not quite a kids book (as it has slight adult humor) but you have to enjoy the story from the various humorously limited dog perspectives.

The narration is great (maybe the best part).

This was the second very short story from this series that I just recently read. Thankfully, I think I read them in the right order. That first one was listed as book # 0.1 and this book is # 0.3. Regardless, these two stories are the sort of "prequels" that give us a glimpse into exactly how Bernie and Chet got together.

It is truly hard not to completely fall in love with Chet immediately (he's the dog). He has that perfect balance of being cute, a bit of a smart aleck and just being so adorable as he tries to equate the human words he hears to things that he can understand in his dog world. Obviously, he tends to get things completely wrong a lot of the time, but to make it even cuter - he has a tremendous heart.

I have to say, from the little I've read, I would like to come back to this series and find out more about just how much trouble these two can get up to.

Sounds fun, right?

Too cute for words...really

If you’ve never read a Chet and Bernie book, you can start with Quinn’s short stories about them as an introduction. My other favorite is A Cat Was Involved, which tells a little bit more about why Chet was a last-minute washout at K-9 school (Chet refers to this incident a lot in the books, but usually can’t remember the details).

And of course, there are the Chet and Bernie fans out there who hate waiting for the next book - you will enjoy the short stories just as well!

Highly recommended.

Chet is always worth some chuckles

Nothing like a Chet the Jet & his pal Bernie Little of the Little Detective Agency adventure to put a smile on my face. And this novella was no exception. Bernie had just picked up another older model Porche (his favorite make of car) with Chet riding shotgun. Shortly after, a woman pays him a visit wanting him to take her case. She wants Bernie to find out if her boyfriend is cheating on her. Not really wanting the case, Bernie finally agrees & he & Chet start investigating. To make a short story short, the ending is quite humorous even if a bit unexpected. A great read!!

Porche surprise!
