Celebrity dog Elliott finds he’s up against a new challenge when his TV contract is suddenly dropped. Is he going to be just a One-Hit Wonder? Will he be sent back to the Pound now that his future is under threat? It’s all Jamie’s fault. He’s the smartarse adman Alpha Male in Elliott’s human pack of Timeshare owners. And it’s all because Jamie’s over-confidence gets the better of him. So now Elliott is no longer the star of the Biffo ChunkY-Yums TV commercial, and just when he was beginning to enjoy being a celebrity! What’s an out-of-work TV star dog going to do? Why, do his level best in the “Bring Back Elliott” social media campaign that Jamie and Timeshare off-sider Paul get going! For this Elliott is going to have to learn new tricks. It’s a risky business! But there’s even more trouble on the horizon! Elliott has to play a game of cat and mouse subterfuge. Tricky for a dog who doesn't really believe he's an animal. How does he do this? Why Method Acting, of course! He’s watched so many old movies. Nice one Elliott. But how will it all end? Elliott has all the answers waiting for you in “Wagging The Dog”, Book 2 in the “Reality Barks” satirical comedy series! If you like a funny dog that talks, an adult dog story with a twist, then you’ll love how Elliott, the stray mutt that was rescued from the Dog Pound, handles the human plotting and scheming in “Wagging The Dog”. It’s a cheeky non-p.c. laugh for dog-lovers.
