When all the humans in his world disappear, Max, a yellow Labrador Retriever, begins the search for his family. He knows that if he can just find Madame Curie, a wise, old black Lab, she'll be able to help. Madame had a premonition of astonishing events to come -- she might know where Max's family is.

But Max can't make the journey alone. Joined by friends Rocky and Gizmo, Max sets off to find Madame. Along the way, the trio must face a pack of angry wolves, forage for food in a land where kibble is akin to gold, befriend a house full of cats, and outsmart a gang of subway rats. Ultimately, they'll have to escape from the biggest threat of all: the Corporation, a "perfect" society for dogs and by dogs, where nothing is quite as it seems.

The Last Dogs: The Vanishing is a thrilling adventure and a tale of three unlikely friends on an epic quest to find their people -- and bring them home.

The Last Dog is all about a dog named Max, it's up to him and his dog friends to find out where all the people are because they have vanished. When he goese to get his friends they are in cages, they break out just like a prison break. They start their journeybut on the way the run in to problems like other stray dogs and wolves. They went through towns, cities and still there were no people. They begin to discover it happened all over the state. Until they stuck on a bridge between the stray dogs and the wolves, They had no choice but to jump into the water when they saw a boat. They jumped onto it and there was a human - it was a miracle! They didn't check one place the island. That's where wall the people were. I loved it and can't wait to read other books by this author.

I am in love with this book! I absolutely love all the characters and the story line was organized in a wonder way. I would recommend.

When all the humans in the world dissapear, Max sets out to find his family. He tries to find Madame Curie, a big Lab. But Max can't do this journey by himself, with 2 friends helping him, they all venture out to find Madame Curie.

A dog is at the vet and he has a friend, a black poodle, who is very wise. She leaves when he's asleep and all the dogs are gone but him. He finds her later in the book and she says to follow the three rings in the sky. Read the end if you want to know what happens!
