Breaking the Chain: The Guard Dog Story

1 minute 3 comments

Patrick McDonnell’s Mutts Comics site is promoting The Guard Dog Story for preorder.

This book features the seven-week-long tale of Guard Dog’s unchaining and adoption, an illustrated history of Guard Dog (written by Patrick), real-life rescue stories, and empowering information from voices in the animal welfare community.

A Patrick McDonnell signed edition is exclusive to Mutts Comics orders.

Some details:

The hardcover book is published by Abrams ComicArts

The 43 three-panel daily strips (my count) will be printed one panel per page showcasing McDonnell’s art!

Barnes & Noble states the pages are 7.75″(wide) x 6.75″(high)

Amazon has the book at 192 pages, leaving plenty of room for those extras noted above.

$22.99 whether the signed edition or unsigned.

Available September 3, 2024.

    It’s not a question of IF I buy it, but whether or not I can buy it for my wife before she buys if for herself!

    I ordered it as soon as it became available. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever seen in comics.

    Thanks. I have been doing animal rescues for over forty years. Thanks for letting us know about this book. (I preordered!)
