writers with dogs

[bbq13]

hi... i was wondering if you know of any writers who have or had dogs and really loved them...... just a thought...

Kipling did. Read The cat that walked by himself,from the Just so stories.

And Steinbeck- he wrote a book about traveling with his dog.I think it is called Travels with Charlie in search of America.

Schopenhauer. He despised women and jews, but he loved animals, specially dogs. Go figure.

Strindberg said:

" I despise people that keep dogs. They do not themselves have the courage to bite "

Jack London, though he is an *ss.

[Isagel]

Why so?
I remember liking Jack London when I was little, but I haven´´t read anything by him since then.

[sloegin]

He is an elitest f*ck, without merit.

[Isagel]

Mm, think I missed that when I was little.

Try him again, you'll see. That is, unless you are one too.
