spanial while she went on vacation. Since Eddie loved dogs it was an offer he couldnt refuse he couldn't refuse so he went to his Aunt Mabels house the next day when Aunt Mabel left that day Eddie called his friend Annie. When Annie got there they started talking all about dogs Annie that she got a new german shepherd his name was rocky and she asked is that cocker spaniel your dog but Eddie said know it was his Aunt Mabels dog.When his Aunt got back from her vacation she suggested that Eddie should be a dog holder so when he left he went to go make some fliers that said Eddie the dog holder. When he put them up he got a lot of calls so when everybody that called came to drop there dogs off he had like 8 dogs. But he did so well with the dogs that he thought imgoing to keep doing this and make my own company.

I read this book, or it was read to me, in the 1970's. I have no memories of it. This time was better. Back in the day, I can see myself taking it at face value. Now I see the humor and humoring to the kids that was done. I am glad I revisited a book I have no memories of.
