Talking Dog $20

The Mulligan Chronicles – Doghouse Edition

A funeral director stops for a hand-painted sign that reads Talking Dog — $20 and expects a gimmick. What he gets instead is Mulligan—a talking dog with an outrageous past, sharp wit, and absolutely no intention of keeping quiet.

Off-the-wall, fast-moving, and unapologetically imaginative, Talking Dog $20 leans fully into absurdity while quietly exploring loyalty, friendship, and second chances.

About the Book

Talking Dog $20 is an off-the-wall story that began with a simple question: what if the dog really could talk—and what if he had a lot to say?

Told through humor, imagination, and moments of surprising sincerity, the story follows Mulligan, a talking dog whose past is as outrageous as his opinions. Along the way, readers are pulled into a world that refuses to take itself too seriously while still touching on loyalty, friendship, faith, and the idea that second chances often arrive when we least expect them.

At its heart, Talking Dog $20 is a tall tale—one that leans into absurdity, embraces imagination, and reminds us that sometimes the stories that sound the strangest are the ones that stay with us the longest.
