– an excerpt from the book

Author Reputation Press is honored to publish “The City Dog and The Country Dog” by Kent Satterlee III. The book is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and the ARP website.

This is the story of a dog who was rescued from an abusive situation and loved his new home but did not understand how to live within the boundaries set for him. He somehow felt it was okay to bite people, even his new master. 

The dog learned from his new master that obedience was hard for the moment but was a much better way to live. The dog’s new master learned from the dog about companionship and the joy of being in the presence of his master. They both learned that true freedom comes from knowing they can trust their masters.

“In the beginning, God created…” That is how it all began. In his infinite wisdom, God created animals before humans. Why? Could it be that he needed the animals to explain creation to us? Or rather, to explain the Creator to us? Could it be that God knew that our intellects would try too hard to understand something very simple? 

In “The City Dog and The Country Dog”, the man learns that all of creation is yearning for freedom—freedom to enjoy his Creator and all the benefits of creation. There is just one big problem: we are held captive by our cruel masters. They keep us bound up, and they lie to us about who we are and what God thinks of us. 

Boone is an Australian Blue Heeler whose owner is a cruel master. He is always trying to escape to get his needs met. After being taken by animal services for neglect and abuse, Boone is adopted by a good master. His new master must endure the bad habits and behaviors that Bonne learned under the cruel master, even being badly bit. 

When his training is complete, Boone is a new dog and readily submits to his master. He never leaves his master’s side. By watching Boone’s transformation, his master learns God’s plan for him and all of creation—to be set free to experience the love of their Creator, to return that love, and to receive their inheritance.
