2026 by the numbers!!

Every year on February 14th, the anniversary of Mungo’s Books, I share which anniversary we’re celebrating, and the other interesting numbers that the year brings.

This year…I was so excited about celebrating 20 years of Mungo’s Books that I forgot to share the rest.😁

So here are ALL of the numbers for 2026!

20 years of Mungo’s Books for Dog People
24 years as a professional dog trainer
29 years as a bookseller

Wren is 16. (She’s actually now 16 1/2!)
Wilder is 2.
(Nobody has ever asked my age, so it’s not on the list.😉)

So if you want experience and education…you’re in the right place.🙂

BACK IN STOCK!!

It is NOT normal for me to be out of this many core titles, but crazy, NOT normal things have just happened with three different publisher orders.

I can’t really complain, though. I’ve been dealing with most of the same publishers - and often the very same contact people at those publishers - for 20 years…and they’re all great!🙂

Sometimes weird things just all happen at the same time.🤷‍♀️
