A funny, profound book about the enduring wisdom of dogs, from the host of the enormously popular "National Dog Show" Charming and hilarious, "Its Okay to Miss the Bed on the First Jump" is more than a mere celebration of mans best friend. In this lighthearted and reflective exploration of how and why dogs have served as some of our most valuable and enlightened teachers, well-known and well- loved actor/show host John OHurley ("Seinfeld, Dancing with the Stars") shares lessons learned from his life with canine companions, including: "Every 15 Minutes Is a New Day; Never Miss a Nap; When One Person Stops Petting You, Move On; A Cold Can of Meat Is Still a Feast"; and "Youre Only as Big as You Think You Are," to name a few. Dogs, after all, have pure hearts, trusting natures, a zest for living, noble characters, and an ability to take things in stride, writes OHurley in the books introduction. They can be counted on, and are pleasant companions. They know whats important, always. How many humans do you know about which you could say the same? At once poignantly moving and laugh-out-loud funny, "Its Okay to Miss the Bed on the First Jump" is a book for the dog lover on everyones holiday shopping list.O'Hurley, John is the author of 'It's Okay to Miss the Bed on the First Jump And Other Life Lessons I Learned from Dogs', published 2006 under ISBN 9781594630323 and ISBN 1594630321.
