JFB continues to amaze. While it’s probably safe to say she isn’t ready for a career in dog training 😉 she definitely has nailed how dogs are so central to our lives and vastly improving our own mental wellbeing in times of great stress. As a LGBT person, I know my dog is the most important creature in my life and I would be devastated to see him pass. Measuring our lives through the dogs we have shared this pass through life is a heartwarming approach to memoir. For those who have followed Boylan’s evolution over the years, this book brings you up to date. My heart goes to Zai as she navigates life; I’m so happy that your generation finds a smoother path through this than earlier generations.
