Ever since his dog was killed, Chad has pulled away from his family and will barely acknowledge their new, undisciplined dog, Queenie. When animal trainer David Burton hires Chad to test his training methods on Queenie, the teenager discovers he can use the technique to effect change in his own life. Haas, who seems to get better with every book, uses well-chosen details to create living, breathing characters.
