    The stars of My Life in Dog Years are, in order of appearance, Cookie, Snowball, Ike, Dirk, Rex, Caesar, Fred and Pig, Quincy, and Josh. Cookie was his lead dog when he did the Iditorod in Alsaka, Snowball was the first dog to matter to him, he had him at age 7, Ike he hunted and fished with, Dirk Paulsen had when he was homeless, Rex he had when he was 13 or 14, Ceaser is a Great Dane he rescued, Fred was sold to Paulsen by a little boy, Quincy becomes a sled dog, and finally Josh is a sweet dog that Paulsen currently owns. As you can see, the story isn't chronological, but goes with the story of the dogs, their personalities, and what they meant to Paulsen.
