  DOG’S BEST FRIEND

  (with Chris Tebbetts)

  My name is Rafe Khatchadorian, and Trouble’s my middle name. From my very first disaster, when I tried to break every rule in my school’s Code of Conduct, to my newest catastrophe in this book, when I start my own dog-walking empire and it goes horribly wrong, I can’t seem to keep from ending up in deep dog doo-doo. But if my crazy adventures make you laugh, then hey—it’s worth it!
