This book was everything!! I knew I would adore this since i too can't resist the urge to pet dogs. The art was absolutely adorable and the ending had me beaming. I can not recommend this book enough for dog lovers or those who want a dog, or get get enough of dogs. Basically if you are obsessed with dogs like me this is the book for you!

Is there an English word for ‘boliao’? Cos that’s what this book felt like. It was a cute read, but not particularly funny or endearing. I suppose this collection is meant to celebrate our love for doggos and I appreciate the introduction, but personally I’m not a dog petter and I would hesitate to interact with/feed a stranger’s dog. 2 stars for the illustrations.

Cute, comical, and with a good message! This book was a little out of my usual reading zone, but I love dogs, so of course I wanted to give it a try! The art is wondrous, it’s imaginative and just plain silly, but also wraps up nicely. I 100% let out an audible “Awwww” at the end that disturbed my sleeping partner.
Thank you NetGalley for the digital ARC!

Totally adorable series of illustrations -- as a runner, I frequently described my goals as "dog-lek" -- and would run along Mission Bay from the dog park to the Embarcadero, stopping to pet ALL the cute dogs and take their photos. For a San Jose "Rock-n-Roll" half marathon, I petted 89 dogs and still finished the half maraton in 2h 21m! I have cats but I pet ALL the dogs. This book was awesome and I would love to get it for my nephews.

Even if you don't have a dog, you'll find Can I Pet Your Dog humorous. It's a tickle to your funny bone!
The illustrations are cute with a narrative to match. Though I didn't find it laugh out loud funny, Can I Pet Your Dog is still a comic that will put a smile on your face. Four adorable stars.

Thank you to Netgalley and BookBuzz.net for an ebook copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I'm a dog lover so when I saw the title of this book I wanted to check it out. This is a cute, fun book about the lengths people could go to in order to pet a dog. For me, I would pet any and every dog, but there are times when it's not appropriated or acceptable. The illustrations showing all of the crazy ways you could ask someone to pet their dog are adorable and fun to look at!

Can I Pet Your Dog starts off by giving people a big caveat: make sure to ask before petting a dog which I thought was a great reminder for people. The book goes through some hilarious and unbelievable ways to pet someone’s dog. It brought some laugh out loud moments, which my own 3 doggies did not appreciate as it disturbed their precious 20 hour nap. A funny cute read that also provides a nice message about pet adoption.
