DESCRIPTION:
He also explains that a dog's love for its owner is always available to that person, even after the dog has died. He tells her that all dogs evolve to this point and that Ivan is almost there. One collie, who saved her life when she was a child, explains how a dog's ultimate goal is to serve humans in an exceptional way or to save a human life. The narrator is greeted by all the dogs she's owned during her life. Ivan remains in heaven, and the narrator must return to Earth.. An illustrated short story about the narrator and her dog, Ivan, who make a trip to dog heaven after being in a car accident
And when they pass, they know they won t be forgotten. Either way, every day they become our heroes. Why? Because they all have a special mission. As Susan Kelleher s delightful little book explains, the ones that came before are constantly training the ones that will be our next set of heroes. A SPECIAL MISSION Finding a place in your heart for this book should be easy. We all know what it s like to lose our best canine friend, but with this book nearby it will be a whole lot easier. Kelleher lets us in on a little secret, the love we feel for them when they are gone is just as special to them as what we felt when they were right there next to us. Their missions may be large, like helping rescue someone, or small, like that little tail wag that is meant just for us. --Donna Coomer, Between the Lines Reviews
A must read A Customer As someone who has gone through the trauma of losing two dogs, I was tremendously touched by this wonderful story. This is a book that should be available in every Veterinarian's office, every Pet Cemetery, at every Dog Show and every Dog Supply store. Dog owners who lose their pets need a book like this, particularly children.. "This is a book of warm and wise consolation with great art." according to A Customer. To read Spirit Dogs is to talk with your best friend at one of the worst times in your life: I lost both my cat and dog within the last six months--accident and wandering away--and the comfort I got from this book helped me through those rough times. You hear this person talking to you. Susan Kelleher has a way of writing that is so clear and straightforward that it seems she is sitting in a chair in the living room and helping you deal with the fact that your best friend has left you, but that the love is still there, the love that you got from your pet and the love you still feel. And it is alright to have those. A Customer said Have seen it work. I once witnessed a public reading by the author of this book. After it was over, virtually everyone left with tears in their eyes; not from discomfort, but from joy and relief. It was an incredibly moving experience. Certainly no book's approach to the loss of a pet is going to work for everybody, but this one has worked for hundreds and hundreds of people, and will hopefully continue to do so. I know that when I lose my beloved dog Brookie, I will be reading this again, searching for comfort.
