Spot and Smudge series by Robert Udulutch (Books #2-3)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 1.3 MB
Overview: Take 27 years and multiply it by about 10 hours a day, to be conservative. My quick napkin math comes up with about 100,000 hours, right?
Well that’s the number of hours I’ve spent with two consecutive pairs of black dogs, and all of the stupid, loving, smelly, tender, infuriating, amazing things they’ve done.
These rescued littermate pups have been fantastic companions, whether running with me through the woods of the South Shore of Massachusetts, or putting up with my gigs at Sony and Microsoft, or keeping my feet warm as I stare at the computer, or escaping with me to the garage to tinker…and most importantly, wagging their tails at the eye rolls of my wonderful wife and our two beautiful daughters.
As I watched these complex and noble dogs charm their way out of punishments, sneak hot dogs off picnic tables, comfort sick people, and wipe away a gray day with just a wag, I started to wonder what would happen if they were smart…really, really smart…and then I wondered what would happen if someone threatened their family.
So I sat down one day and the 400,000 words of my Spot and Smudge trilogy just seemed to fly out…and I still can’t stop them.
I truly love the process of writing these books. If you’re enjoying the process of reading them please let me know.

2. The Glasgow Gray
To Ben Hogan, great Uncle Hamish’s reputation is as big a mountain as the man himself. His family’s rollicking tales of the brawny Scot’s Canadian adventures are Ben’s favorites, and he thinks he’s old enough to travel alone to the ranch in Quebec for a visit.
His grandmother Mimi agrees, and thinks a break would be good for him. Their family has been through a tough year, one that has forced Ben and his smart dogs to overcome some deadly obstacles. She also knows her grandson is missing his grandfather. Getting away and spending time with Hamish might be just what Ben needs, but convincing his concerned parents won’t be easy. The cold north can be a tricky place in the middle of winter, but Ben’s amazing pups would be there to help watch over him.
Spot and Smudge are looking forward to the trip, too. They enjoy the Hamish stories as much as Ben, and equally exciting for the pups is the prospect of meeting one of the animals on their bucket list…Canis lupus, the gray wolf.
Ben’s parents are right to worry, but not because he’s too young to take the trip alone. The family had thought dispatching the deranged Dorschsteins would be the end of their troubles but those murderous opportunists were just the tip of a very large evil iceberg now pursuing them. The hidden criminal organization behind the pups’ dark secret will stop at nothing, and it’s clear they are willing to unleash indiscriminate hell to find what they seek.
Ben and the pups soon find out the dead of winter in central Quebec can be a very dangerous place. The nights are long, the snow is deep, and exposed skin can freeze in minutes. Just to survive takes brains and balls…and when you’re being hunted it also takes grit. The kind of grit that sometimes only comes from the cunning and loyalty of a unique pack of allies.
3. Let Slip the Pups of War
Fisho Mwale is a noble, simple farmer. A little shake-shake beer and a few of his daughter-in-law’s corn biscuits are enough to put a smile on his lined, dark face. He and his son Fulfort toil over a patch of rocky dirt in northern Zambia that until recently had provided well for them. It’s been full drought for going on three years and now they’re struggling to keep his young son’s wife and children fed. The father and son are forced to travel far south to find paying work. In the slums of Lusaka they sign on with a pair of animal parts traffickers and are sent to the most prominent, most lucrative, and most dangerous animal preserve in South Africa, as poachers. In his youth Fisho had been on hunts, and been hunted. He’s also seen security men and their dogs up close in the mines, but he’s never seen police dogs like the ones at this preserve. They aren’t like other dogs. They don’t hunt like other dogs, they don’t move like other dogs, and they don’t look away when they lock onto you with their too-smart stare. Fisho soon realizes he and his son are trapped between men they can’t trust and these insanely effective hunters…and he wonders which will be the end of them first…
Tian and Harley Tzeng are inseparable cousins who have had each other’s backs since primary school. They are also members of a lethal family who run the underbelly of Hong Kong and are bent on avenging their fallen. Something has gone horribly wrong in the states. Both of their mothers and Tian’s brother Liko have been taken out by an unknown clan from a small town in Massachusetts. Grandfather is sending the boys and the rest of their equally deadly cousins to hunt down the perpetrators and to exact the appropriate payback. Backed by unlimited funds and weapons most armies can’t get their hands on it appears nothing can stop them…nothing but this underestimated little family…or perhaps the traitor in the cousins’ own midst…
FBI director Douglas Barton doesn’t like what he sees. Some of his sensitive internal files have gone missing and his own organization is giving his most heinous corporate scumbags a free pass. He’s been trying to nail the criminal organization behind Orthus but the slick psychopath Semion Mogevich and his deranged daughter Katia are always one step ahead of him. Barton hasn’t played all of his cards yet, however, and with the Mogevichs’ turning their attention to Pembury that little family and their special dogs might just be the bait he needs to get the upper hand this time…and flush out a rat in the process…
