How about a Dog Philosopher?
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein.
A wonderful book about a dog who believes that when dogs die they are reincarnated as humans. He can't wait to die because he intends to come back as a race car driver. But first, he has a family to take care of.
My description sounds sappy as all hell, but the book isn't. It's a well written story about a dog and his human family and his reasons for his loyalty.
