Heartwarming journey through grief with a dog's love.

Judith Summers shares a vulnerable, yet uplifting narrative that mirrors the messy, unexpected path of coping with bereavement, and how the antics and affections of a furry companion can lead to a rediscovery of joy. Beyond a pet memoir, it's a raw reflection on love, loss, and the quirky comfort of canine quirks amidst life's darkest moments.

Description

When Judith Summers' husband and father both died within the space of two weeks, she found herself floundering. Life for her and her eight-year-old son Joshua seemed relentlessly bleak. Then George bounced into their lives. A loving Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with film-star looks, George reawoke their joie de vivre. Yet Judith soon discovered that living with George had its drawbacks. He was a full-time job and as expensive to run as a Ferrari. Wilful and badly behaved, he refused to eat anything other than roast chicken, preferred travelling by car to walking, and became as jealous as a spurned lover if any man dared show an interest in her. And when a near-death tangle with a Staffordshire Bull terrier resulted in costly sessions with an animal psychologist, Judith found that it was she who was put on the couch.
