Top Ten Tuesday: Animals from Books

Join in the Top Ten Tuesday fun! Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.


I love animals.  And when a book includes a beloved pet which is just there for the characters, it just warms my heart.  Here is a few books I've read which immediately came to mind when I saw this topic.


1.  Without a Trace

I just love Samson, Bree's Rescue Search Dog.


2.  Distant Echoes

Trained Dolphins who saved the day!  Since Dolphins is my favourite animal, I don't really have to say more 😍


The next three I loved because it is about military working dogs and the author did a great job of showing what challenges they also deal with:

3.  Trinity: Military War Dog


4.  Talon: Combat Tracking Team


5.  Beowulf: Explosives Detection Dog


6.  Ocean's Apart

Sometimes, a dog is the only friend who can provide comfort and companionship.


7.  Love at first bark

If you enjoy sweet romance, this was a sweet novella with a small doggy creating a few laughs.


And some books I still need to read which includes some animals as important characters:

8.  Hunted


9.  Winning the Gentleman


10.  Justice Mission

  4. Dolphins are definitely intriguing animals! I've read a few books about whales, but I'm not sure I've ever really read one about dolphins.

    Happy TTT!
