About this listen
Dylan Mint has Tourette's. His life is a constant battle to keep the bad stuff in - the swearing, the tics, the howling dog that seems to escape whenever he gets stressed. But a routine visit to the hospital changes everything. Overhearing a hushed conversation between the doctor and his mum, Dylan discovers that he's going to die in March. So he makes a list of things he must do before he dies: First, he wants to have real sex with gorgeous Michelle Malloy; Second, he's got to find his autistic best friend Amir a new best bud; Third, he's got to get his dad back home from the army so they can say goodbye properly. It's not a long list, but it's ambitious, and he doesn't have much time. Sometimes you've just got to go for it - no holding back - and see what happens....
This is the launch of a major new writing talent. Brian Conaghan makes you travel every step of the way in Dylan's shoes, laughing and crying - often at the same time - as Dylan faces the twists and turns of an unfair world with glorious optimism and wit.

Didn't take me long to listen to this book, I couldn't put it down (except when sleeping).
Taking a peep into teens with various disabilities was an eye opener.
Narration by Julian Elfer was brilliant
Reason I didn't give this book 5 star rating was that the production needed to be turned up a notch, I had to listen to it on full volume.
When Mr. Dog Bites - what a brilliant funny, sad, warm book

What made the experience of listening to When Mr. Dog Bites the most enjoyable?
The narrator was wonderful. While the subject matter is not funny at all, the self depracation of the writer is brought out by the narrator, giving the listener some extremely humerous events, calamities and catastrophesAbsolutely Hilarious!
