1. The Call of the Wild by Jack London

We start our list of the best books for a dog lover with this all-time classic. Jack London introduces us to Buck, a dog who succumbs to his most primitive instincts when a series of events befall him pulling a sled in frozen Alaska during the gold rush.

2. White Fang by Jack London

How to forget the most famous of Jack London's books. While White Fang is half dog half wolf, it's worth making this list. His story shows us different facets of the human, including those that we would rather not know, through the life of an animal that cannot find his place in the world.

3. A Dog's Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron

This wonderful New York Times bestseller tells us the story of Bailey, a puppy who discovers the meaning of his life through the impact it has on the humans that make up his family. The story is as endearing as it is unforgettable.

Without a doubt, it is one of the great classics of children's literature. If you didn't read it, don't let anything stop you. This is an emotionally powerful book about a boy and his hunting dogs. We can not anticipate anything else. Go ahead and read it!

5. The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski

The arrival of Claude, his uncle, shortly before his father's death and Claude's sudden interest in winning the affection of her mother leads Edgar to believe that his death was no accident.

When his plan to prove his guilt backfires, he is forced to flee with his three big furry companions... and to find a way to survive.
