Description: Rex and the City by Lee Harrington. A Memoir. Rex and the City tells the story of a young, hip city couple whose lives are turned completely upside down when they adopt a shelter dog. The author and her boyfriend, Ted -- both of whom fear commitment -- bring their new pet home to their three-hundred-square-foot New York City apartment, expecting to be flooded with doggie gratitude and exuberance. Instead, Rex terrorizes everyone he encounters and runs away every chance he gets. Every effort they make to train the dog, or even placate him, seems hopeless. Lee and Ted begin to wonder if they are responsible -- or dedicated -- enough to handle this problem child. But they refuse to give up on their dysfunctional dog, and eventually their efforts pay off. As Lee and Ted witness their pet's gradual transformation from a traumatized, fearful puppy into a confident, free-spirited dog, their relationship is also transformed: Their commitment to Rex seals their commitment to each other. A hilarious and riotous romp of a memoir, this is ultimately a love story for humans and animals alike.
