this book was excellent. some of the science was a little fuzzy, but the important part of the book, the loyalty to one's pet was beautiful. i also had a problem at the end of the book where the dog was kept alive so that Logan could say goodbye. i thought that this undermined the plot a little. keeping a dog alive just to say goodbye is incredibly selfish. however, despite this, i really liked the characters and the book overall. i appreciated the character of Logan's stepfather, who trul More...

Logan Moore has an evil stepfather who clearly wishes Logan's mom was single. The feeling is mutual. Logan is filled with hate for pretty much everyone he comes in contact with until he gets a kennel dog who he names Jack. Jack is the only one who accepts Logan the way he is, and the two are fast friends. However, a virus breaks out in the canine community, one that can jump to humans and kill quickly. Dogs are being executed out of paranoia. How will Logan protect Jack?

A dog disease has been spreading around, targeting all dogs, turning them into vicious raging predators. But that was before Logan got a dog, before Logan got a dog from the shelter instead of the purebreed dog his step-dad wanted, before he got sent to a camp and escaped only to find that his dog found him before Logan found his real dad, before they found that Logan's dog was the only dog that was immune to the disease, before people shoot dogs once they see them. Yes, before everything happen More...

In the book "The Last Dog on Earth" there is this dog who has a special disease treatment and all the other dogs have died because of this disease. And its spreading all around and its getting to the humans. So the dog with the treatment ends up having to treat all the humans to save the world and when he treated everyone he was best known as the best dog ever. And the family who owned the dog were really recognized because of the dog.

'The Last Dog on Earth' is all about this awful disease spreading to dogs and slowly killing them.
This book I love/hate. I love it because it's about dogs, and is really emotional. I hate it because when I opened it up and started to read, I was horrified that all the dogs were dying!!! (But I kind of loved that, too, because it's emotional.)I guess it kind of made me scared this was going to happen in real life! I also thought it was selfish that they kept Jack(the dying dog) alive in he More...

Logan Moore, a young boy who thinks he has the worst life. He hates his father for leaving him. He hates his stepfather for controlling what he has to do. Also, he hates other kids for thinking they are better than him. When Logan gets a dog he learns how to act in a responsible way.


This is a book you can count on to be the book that you would want to read.


Everyone should read this book it really teaches you a lesson on how to act, and be a better person.

But a strange disease is sweeping through town making dogs attack anybody with no mercy. Jack is not affected but that won't keep her safe. People are shooting dogs and asking questions later...

This book is really creepy. It kinda made me have second thoughts about getting a dog. Anyhow, I think this is a very good book. It tells a couple of different stories at once. It begins with Jack as a wild dog puppy, then starts with Logan's point of view of the story, then adds in Westerley, who later comes out to be Logan's father. I would recommend this book to all my friends.

begin: i keep running into books where the male character is SO MAD at the world! is this what angry young men really feel? why isnt this being addressed by more people? that level of anger only leads to angry adults, and they pass it on to others, including the next generation. anyway, it's got a dog and a loner boy, so you know the dog's going to be dead at the end of the book. what was i thinking?!

end: it ended as i expected and yet not. touching, poignant but could have gone dee More...

WARNING-SPOILERS!!!!!
I loved this book. I gave it to my friend to read and by looking at the cover guessed that the dog would die, because evryone knows that if the dog is on the cover it will die. Well i didnt want my friend to miss the bond you join with the characters and the dog, so i lied to her and said that the dog didnt die. Very good book!

I like this book because it highlights the relationships that people buildwith their pets, as well as a divorced family struggling to understand each other. This is a good chapter book for middle school kids with family problems, or for any middle schooler in general. The writing was a little dry, but the different perspectives throughout the book changed it up enough to read the whole way through.

This book is about how a contagious dog disease made dogs sick and have rabie like reactions.All dogs are either getting it or getting killed for safety.The last dog and her owner run away so that they can both live but they have many obsatcles in their way.Can they make it and reproduce or will the end of the dogs, The Wolf's decendants begin?

Very sad. I wasn't expecting the ending, but im glad it ended that way rather then what i was afraid it was gonna happen. Jack is the coolest dog ever, and sometimes reminds me of my dog, though my dog does NOTHING right, but i love him all the same.

I read this book for Battle of the Books in 5th grade, and I absolutely loved it! In fact,once I finished it, I just picked it up and read it again. The Last Dog on Earth is a hear-wrenching and intelligent story that I would recommend to everybody.

This is a cool book, I really enjoyed it-although I did read it a few years ago. If you have or wish you had a dog and don't have anything against dogs that aren't purebred you may enjoy this book as well.

A student recommended this book but it took a while for the librarian to find a copy. The students have been checking the book out too fast! (She's ordering a few more copies.)

When I first began reading the book, I thought it was just another hateful, angry, and bitter book. The only noble, good character was the dog. I'm glad I stuck it out.

The story had two morals which I liked: adopt a shelter animal and anger is pain in disguise.

I would recommend this book to th More...

One of the best books I ever read. It's funny, dramatic, exciting, and sad. It kept me turning pages, even when the story was at a calm place.
Good book for the average reader that likes action.
