Bill Wallace

Wallace also had collaboration in 2003 entitled “The meanest Hound Around”. It tells about a house dog named Freddy, who has a mindset of being of homeless and fatherless when he was abandoned in the woods. Freddy never learned how to fit in a society of junkyard where he hopes to find his own shelter and thus his story begins.

The best place to start is the Upchuck and the Rotten Willy series, the earliest of Bill Wallace's multi-book series: it opens with The Great Escape (1998) and runs to 3 books across 1998–2000, ending with Running Wild (2000). Bill Wallace's other series stand alone, so they can be read in any order.
