This was in my pile of kids books to read that I'm trying to diminish during this quarantine. Had gotten this book a number of years ago, mostly because of the character's name, and it being about dogs. A bit predictable, but enjoyable

I picked this up at random from the library. I like Russia, I like dogs, and I like a strong willed female lead so why not?I'm aware that this is young adult/written for kids..
