Summary

Children and dogs are often best friends. Many adults will fondly remember a childhood dog who helped them through a hard time simply by being a companion, or curling up with them when they needed comfort.

Sadly, though, dogs are often misunderstood by both adults and children; their behavior being misread. It is important to remember that dogs and children should always be supervised when together, so that everyone stays happy and safe.

In Worzel Says Hello!, Catherine and her Lurcher, Worzel, take you on a journey, where you will gain an understanding of how dogs think and feel, so that all children can have a wonderful relationship with the dogs in their lives, and all dogs can feel happy, safe, and loved.
