Have you ever read David Rosenfelt mysteries?

 I can't get enough of them!

The main character is Andy Carpenter, a lawyer in Patterson N.J. who helps run a dog rescue organization called the Tara Project. Tara is one of his dogs.

He is independently wealthy--due to inheritance and some high paying cases--and keeps a staff though he always wants to stop being in court.

If you like dogs and mysteries and quirky characters, you'll love David Rosenfelt novels.
