Patrick the Wayward Setter — Diane Ganzer

Patrick is an English setter puppy with a penchant for mischief. His newly adopted family adores him-all except for Mike, the family head. He thinks Patrick is just a maladjusted dog who refuses to act like the dogs Mike used to raise. As Patrick grows, his antics don't improve much, even with training, and Mike is exasperated; until one day a large, temperamental dog moves in next door. Then it is up to Patrick to prove himself when a little boy is attacked. Can Patrick save him, or is he just...a wayward setter? What is the price a dog is willing to pay to prove himself to the ones he loves the most?
