Three Wild Dogs (and the Truth)

Book • 2025
In this poignant, funny, and disarmingly honest memoir, Markus Zusak tells the story of his family’s adoption of three big, wild, street-hardened dogs—Reuben, Archer, and Frosty.

The narrative delves into the chaos that ensues, including street fights, public shamings, property damages, and hospital visits, but ultimately highlights the explosion of love and the joy of recognizing family.

It is a love letter to the animals that bring hilarity, beauty, and the visceral truth of the natural world into our lives.
