Fixing Freddie

A true story about a boy, a single mom, and the very bad beagle who saved them

by Paula Munier

The millions of readers and moviegoers who enjoyed Marley & Me, A Three Dog Life, Merle’s Door, and Amazing Gracie will bark out loud to this memoir too! In this hilarious and heartwarming memoir, single mother Paula Munier takes on the world’s worst beagle—and loses every time. The puppy that destroys her kitchen cabinets, bites her dates, pees on her neighbors, and bays at the moon is her worst nightmare—and her son’s best friend. She tries everything to fix him—from obedience training and an animal behaviorist to contemplations of puppy Prozac and, well, fixing him. But nothing really works. As Mikey grows up and prepares to leave home, Paula’s worst fear is that after more than thirty years of raising kids, she’ll be left all alone—with Freddie. But by the time Mikey graduates from high school, Freddie has howled his way into her heart—and earned a lifelong place in her empty nest.
