Book Description
To one that hunts, a dog is never just a dog. The partnership and bonding between owner and dog often cement to a point where the dog becomes as much of a hunting buddy as any of the two-legged kind. Simply put, the dog ultimately serves as confidant, comedian, and companion. And for one already in the midst of loss, the relationship is far deeper. It becomes one first of distraction, then of comfort, then of deep emotional bonding. Unfortunately, the relationship can end up as its own story of loss. It's, It's a Dog Named Blitz is the whirlwind story of a new puppy that came into a grieving young man's life, and how the relationship and adventures unfolded. It is a story about laughs, love, life, and loss, and how a rambunctious Yellow Labrador dog came to steal a breaking heart. 100%% of any profits generated by the sale of this book will be donated to The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration: ftd-picks.org and The Alzheimer's Association: alz.org.
