Walkin' the dog / Chris Lynch.

Lynch, Chris, 1962- (author.).

Summary:
Homeschooled his whole life in a seaside New England town he calls "a retirement home for pirates," Louis is used to sticking around home and being solo - but that's all about to change because in the fall he'll be heading to public school for the first time. When a favor for a neighbor and his stinky canine companion turns into a bustling dog-walking business, Louis winds up spending his summer out of the house and, in spite of himself, making friends, both human and canine. He's always been a pretty passive guy - there's a reason his mom lovingly calls him "the inactivist." In a family of big personalities, Louis would rather kick back than stand out. But when one of his new friends gets into trouble and truly needs his help, Louis will have to decide whether he wants to keep being a lone wolf or take a risk and finally become part of a pack.
