Sommario/riassunto

Dana Perino was President George W. Bush's press secretary and is now a host on Fox News' The Five. She also knows who the real star in her family is: her Vizsla, Jasper -- a.k.a. America's Dog. In this new book, Dana tells stories about life and politics -- and how dogs can transcend rancor and partisanship. She also talks about how dogs bring families together--like Dana's own, from her career in Washington through her life as a TV star.--
