The dog who was (almost) perfect / by Jack Kurland.

Kurland, Jack, (author,, artist.).

Summary:

There once was a dog called Doris who was practically perfect in every way. She woke up on time every morning, never forgot to fetch her owner's slippers, and could perform all her tricks flawlessly. Doris loved being perfect. Until one day, something not-so-perfect happens and Doris panics. Will my owner be sad? Or angry? Or think I'm a bad dog? For the first time, Doris feels unsure of herself. With a little help from some kind new friends, Doris begins to see things differently. She discovers that it's okay to get things wrong sometimes, and that being imperfect doesn't make her owner love her any less.
