Jim Fraser is known to many as a Socceroo and goalkeeping coach with a ton of energy, but he was also a professional dog trainer and handler for more than two decades, who worked with dogs - and owners - large and small in and outside the home. In this charming collection of short stories, Jim shares some whimsical and heartwarming tales of our four-legged friends that celebrate the unique bond between humans and dogs.  Whether youre a dog lover or simply appreciate a good story, this collection is sure to wag its way into your heart.

Jim Fraser was a professional dog trainer for more than two decades, after resigning from the NSW Police Force to establish a private security company utilising dogs. This evolved into an interest in kennels and dealing with behavioural problems for domestic pets through home training programs at which he had a close-up look at dogs in a family situation. He operated a canine behaviour clinic for the NSW RSPCA and was a consultant to the Guide Dogs for the Blind. He co-authored My Dog, a canine behaviour guide with veterinarian, the late Dr Pam Tinslay. Jim’s work with dogs was brought to a sudden halt after a motor cycle accident. He also runs a successful goalkeeping clinic, and oversees the Women’s NPL, Academy and Goalkeeper development programs for Western Sydney Wanderers. He has previously worked with the Australian and Philippines national football teams. He played football in the NSW state league and played ten games for the Socceroos from 1973-74. 

* Author worked as a professional dog trainer for more than two decades. The author is a natural storyteller and raconteur who is also a former Socceroo. 
* The book shares short stories of real life situations of guard dogs, pets, show dogs, and more that he has helped.
