A dog adjusts to a growing family

Dorothy is used to being an important part of life with her two dads, from walks and baths to dinner parties. When a baby arrives, those familiar routines give way to noise and disruption, and Dorothy tries to help bring back the household order she misses. Her changing relationship with the new arrival frames a picture-book story about adapting to family change, welcoming a sibling, and the bond between a dog and her family.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A picture book option for children ages 4–8.

Book overview

A heartwarming and hilarious picture book that celebrates the joy of family!

Meet Dorothy, a loving dog with two wonderful dads. Her life is filled with long walks, bubbly bath times, and splendid dinner parties. She takes pride in helping her dads with everything, ensuring their days are filled with fun.

But everything changes when her dads bring home a new addition--a noisy, floppy, screechy, smelly baby! Dorothy's world is turned upside down as the family's routine is thrown into chaos. No more long walks, no more relaxing baths, and mealtimes become a whirlwind of activity.

Determined to restore order, Dorothy tries her best to help her dads around the house, but nothing seems to work. The baby continues to disrupt their lives, and Dorothy misses the calm days when it was just her and her dads.

All it takes, though, is one sweet moment for Dorothy to realize that the baby might not be so bad after all. With newfound love and understanding, Dorothy embraces the baby as her best little buddy and proudly parades her family's excellent training to the world.

Proud Dog is a delightful tale of love, adaptation, and the unbreakable bond of family.
