About a year ago or so, maybe not quite that long ago, a great man and fellow author by the name of Squire Rushnell wrote to me; asking me if I would consider allowing him to add my dog Faith's story to his new book "Dogwinks". Oh, but of course I would! I love being asked questions like that; for me, it's a no-brainer. You want to talk about my dog Faith? You want to spread her great story and do so in a book that you wrote about her and other dogs? You bet! I couldn't say yes fast enough.
Squire and I talked a few times over the next month or so, he was trying to get all the details of Faith's story so he could combine them, condense them, and add them into the book alongside other great stories about other great dogs who, like Faith, had amazing stories to tell. One of his stories about a sweet Beagle named Ruby is even being made into a Netflix movie. I love that. Faith's story has always been a fan favorite too; and who knows, Squire may have friends out there who think Faith needs to have her story told on film as well. If that happens we'll be sure to throw director Michael Givens a bone, so to speak, so he too can be a part of the mix. He's been a dear friend (wanting to get Faith's story in front of millions) so we hope he'll accept the challenge when or if it arises.
You can easily pick up a copy of "Dogwinks" at any of your favorite bookstores, you can buy it on Amazon, or order it online through another source, but please buy a copy! It's choke-full of great tales of dogs who met changes and challenges head-on, who took on impossible tasks, who served, and who survived. Dogs (and other animals too) show us, humans, what it means to love unconditionally, and without restraint. This book is a solid tribute to 20 dogs including a Husky named Hunter who literally saved the lives of his owners. It's a wonderful book -- one you'll want to share and give as a gift to anyone who you know who loves dogs. (which should be like 1000 people right?)
Again, when someone wants to share the best part of your life with others, just say yes! It can only bring a smile to someone and of course, to you too! Thanks again Squire!! You can do a little research on Squire to find out he's really cool, and he's been an author and producer for years and years. If you have an opportunity to do so, please pick up his other books too!
