The Mugged Pug

Welcome to Sally's book-a-day-for-2017 blog. If unfamiliar with the blog, scroll down.

The Mugged Pug- 2005 (Post 211)

The Mugged Pug is the third story in the Jack Russell: Dog Detective series. This one finds Jack involved in a mystery concerning collars... not to speak of the fearsome Pink Stink. Then there is the affair of the pie...

 The dogs of Doggeroo are mysteriously losing their collars. At first Jack assumes they are being careless, but it soon becomes obviously there's more to it than that. Jack goes undercover as a careless, trusting dog to try to uncover the culprit, but no matter what he does, he can't seem to lose his collar. That is, until Sarge borrows it to put on Shuffle the Pug! Finally, Jack discovers the truth and he and the dogs of Doggeroo take action.

The Mugged Pug is available as an audio book from Bolinda Audio Books. The UK edition is called "Pug in Trouble", and French Canadian children read about "Vols a Val-Cabot". 

Throughout the Jack Russell series, we kept to things that could legitimately concern dogs and tried to look at matters from a dog's point of view. Having Jack Russell Terriers ourselves made this a lot easier.

The goal for 2017 is to write a post a day profiling the background behind one of my books; how it came to be written, what it's about, and any things of note that happened along the way. If you're an author, an aspiring author, a reader or just someone who enjoys windows into worlds, you might find this fun. The books are not in any special order, but will be assigned approximate dates, and pictures, where they exist. If you enjoyed a post, or want to ask about any of my books or my manuscript assessment service.
