Hobo Hudson is The Richest Dog in Town | A Book Review

Have you ever tried your hand at being an entrepreneur? I hope that everything worked out great if so, but if not maybe you can give it another try after reading The Richest Dog in Town: The Adventures of Hobo Hudson. The book is written by Hobo Hudson, a small terrier living in Florida with his mom and dad. He shares several short stories of how he came from rags to riches. It wasn't easy, but with hard work and dedication Hobo was able to become a successful business-dog.

I was absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to read and review The Richest Dog in Town! Hobo's life starts out rough, but he finally manages to find his perfect family and trains them to match his needs. He's also able to work out some compromises with his cat sisters, who also meow their own opinions in the book.

After getting settled into his forever home, Hobo becomes an entrepreneur and successfully runs several growing businesses. He's always looking for a good way to make a buck. He's a millionaire in no time! Running a business can be hard work and he does run into a few unfortunate events along the way.

Here are some of Hobo's fun business endeavors he shares in his book - The Richest Dog in Town: 

  • A successful clothing store on Ebay. 
  • A cruise ship for people and dogs. 
  • Smuggling Cuban cigars into America to sell on the black market. 
  • A university for dogs. 

Hobo has many more great business ideas, which you can read about in the book. Who knows - you may just be inspired to start your very own business! However, Hobo isn't all work and no play - oh no. He travels the world to visit his friends and shows them all how to have a good time. 

The Richest Dog in Town by author Bruny Hudson is a wonderful collection of stories from Hobo's point of view. If you're looking for a good dog book with a fun twist, this is the one for you! I found that I was smirking and chuckling to myself quite often while reading it. 

If you'd like to purchase The Richest Dog in Town: The Adventures of Hobo Hudson, it's available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble as a paperback. You can also download a copy to your Kindle. You can visit Hobo at his mom's website - News and Tales - and his blog if you're interested in reading more of his fun adventures.

  8. It looks like an interesting book, although I'm sure not enough room is left for the cat sisters' ideas.

  11. Heh heh, if I was a successful entrepreneur do you think I'd be doing this blogging thing? I'd be relaxing by the pool with a niptini in one paw and a smousy in the other. I've told TW I need a swag shop but she's too lazy. Sigh!
