Book Synopsis

Dogs come into our lives and give us some of our best days. And then, one of the worst. There's a special kind of grief reserved for the loss of a beloved dog, and we may have lots of questions, like Why does it hurt so much? When will I feel better? and Will I see my dog in heaven?

Heartwarming and hopeful, Goodbye to a Good Dog is your compassionate companion for that worst day and all the days that follow it. Written with empathy and insight from the author's personal experience rescuing (and saying goodbye to) senior golden retrievers, this unique resource covers everything from practical tips on dealing with grief, ideas for memorial services, paths to emotional and spiritual healing, and ways to cope when others don't understand the depth of your loss.

Nothing enriches our lives in quite the same way as a good dog, which is why nothing hurts in quite the same way as losing one. Whether you or someone you love has had to say goodbye to a faithful dog, this book answers our questions, soothes our souls, and offers hope that we will see our dogs in heaven one day.
