This memoir of a dog mama is a tear jerker, you can just tell. Martha is in the market for an older bull terrier when a friend of a friend puts her in touch with Carol. She’s terminally ill and needs a home for her bull terrier. You know from the start that Martha will take Harry the dog and that Carol will die; you find out in the first look that Martha had her mother’s dog put down after her mother died so best of luck finishing the intro without sobbing.
