A 100-page softcover book in which the author happily recounts her experiences with the dogs she has shared her home with for most of her adult life. She speaks with love for her dogs and explains her fascination with their varied personality traits and behaviours. A nationally recognised expert in thanatology (the study of death and dying), the author also explores the delicate subject of losing a beloved pet and offers understanding and support for grieving pet owners. The book includes appendices: Funeral Services for a Pet and The Rainbow Bridge, a poem about the joyful reunion with our pets in the afterlife.
