A Dog’s Purpose—the #1 New York Times bestseller—is now a major motion picture!Based on the beloved bestselling novel by W. Bruce Cameron, A Dog’s Purpose, from director Lasse Hallström (The Cider House Rules, Dear John, The 100-Foot Journey), shares the soulful and surprising story of one devoted dog (voiced by Josh Gad) who finds the meaning of his own existence through the lives of the humans … meaning of his own existence through the lives of the humans he teaches to laugh and love. The family film told from the dog’s perspective also stars Britt Robertson, KJ Apa, John Ortiz, Peggy Lipton, Juliet Rylance, Luke Kirby, Pooch Hall and Dennis Quaid. A Dog’s Purpose is produced by Gavin Polone (Zombieland, TV’s Gilmore Girls). The film from Amblin Entertainment and Walden Media will be distributed by Universal Pictures. Screenplay by W. Bruce Cameron & Cathryn Michon and Audrey Wells and Maya Forbes & Wally Wolodarsky.
Heartwarming, insightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, A Dog’s Purpose is not only the emotional and hilarious story of a dog’s many lives, but also a dog’s-eye commentary on human relationships and the unbreakable bonds between man and man’s best friend. This moving and beautifully crafted story teaches us that love never dies, that our true friends are always with us, and that every creature on earth is born with a purpose.
Bailey’s story continues in A Dog’s Journey, the charming New York Times and USA Today bestselling direct sequel to A Dog’s Purpose.

This book was great
I loved it. It made me want to cry. But, in the very end it was worth it.
OMG! LOVED this book! much better than the movie. this should be a must read with a box of tissues close at hand!
Loved it, loved it, loved it!
Very good book.
A dog lovers book. The author writes as if he is the dog, providing explanations and bewilderment about human behavior. I have a new puppy and im certainly more patient now I know how a dog thinks! A dogs purpose is a beautiful thing, cheaper than therapy and alot more fun. My puppy speaks to me just by looking at me, and now I know what he is thinking.
To a life-long dog lover, this book afforded great insight into the ways my dogs see the world and their place in it, as well as their relationships with their human families.
A very fresh, fun read for me! A great summer beach book!
