When I first saw the book I thought that it was going to be good because I like dogs. From the very first page I thought Lulu and Mellie were nice. I liked that Mellie and Lulu had lots of pets. I liked it when the dog from the sea knocked the bins over and made a mess. I did not like it when the dog catchers where trying to get the dog from the sea. I liked the end because it was a very happy ending. I think everyone who likes animals and a happy ending would like this book.
