Hey guys, I just want to update this list with a VERY worthy book called "A Dogs Journey" by Bruce Cameron. I just finished reading it and cried my heart out. It was tears of happiness, so if you get a chance, check it out 🙂

I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us. Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.
Ted Karasote just wrote a new book called "Pukka's Promise: The Quest for Longer-Lived Dogs" with lots of information about dog cancers as well as feeding your dog the best foods and helpful info on extending your dogs natural lifespan. I don't think the story of his dog Pukka was as well touched upon but the book has amazing info on how kibble is made and tons of well researched information on dog food and how there is an explosion of cancer in the canine world.
I was kind of suprised when I read through the help organizations that Tripawds wasn't listed! You guys were my lifeline through all of Sammy's journey and then Titans.
I wonder if we could send him a link or something?

Elizabeth it's so great to hear from you! How are you and the pack doing these days? For anyone not familiar with Elizabeth and Sammy's journey, here is a link to Sammy's blog, "Sammy and Me."
Thanks so much for coming back to this topic to share more great dog books with us. We've heard about Kerasote's new book, would you be interested in writing a review for our Amazon blog ? PM me if you want to do that, we'd love it.
As far as thinking of us when it comes to being listed as a resource, THANK YOU! We would be honored if he would include us so if anyone wants to contact him to tell him about why Tripawds should be listed in the next edition of Pukka's Promise

I didn't know where to place this thread as there are so many good ones here but I wanted to recommend a great book!I love Merle's Door by Ted Kerasote. It is so wonderfully written. It is a story about the love he had with his dog. I read it right before my rottie/shepperd mix Jazzy passed away. I found it to be so comforting and I loved how he loved his dog. It's the kind of book that makes you reflect back often on it as you see a certain dog, or when I look at the mountains. I ended up with tears streaming down my face because of the love he shared with Merle. It makes me happy that I have that connection too.
