    "The Purloined Poodle" by Kevin Hearne
    https://www.amazon.com/Purloined-Poodle-Kevin-Hearne/dp/1738279243

    A novella added to the ten book Iron Druid fantasy series. There are
    several other novellas for the series also. I read the well printed and
    well bound POD (print on demand) trade paperback published by Horned
    Lark Press in 2024 that I bought in 2026. I own one of the other
    novellas and plan to read it soon.

    The Iron Druid Series starts with "Hounded" released in 2011:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051XU2PE

    Atticus O'Sullivan is a 2,000+ year old Druid living peacefully in
    Arizona, USA in modern times. His Irish Wolfhound Oberon is also many
    decades old due to Atticus's special teas. They are in a dog park one
    day and pick up that several prize winning dogs are missing. Atticus
    and Oberon decide to investigate the mystery.

    I really enjoy the humor, interaction, and telepathic talking between
    Atticus and his dog Oberon. Being a dog person, I often wonder what my
    dog would say when I walk with her every afternoon. Probably how she
    really wants to chase the squirrels and rabbits in our country area. I
    also enjoy the constant thoughts about different kinds of sausages and
    gravy from Oberon. I was also surprised that Oberon cannot
    telepathically talk to other dogs without Atticus being around.
