 I wanted to love this book August 27, 2008

I am dog lover and animal rescuer, have been through the horrendous anguish of having beloved animals die or be euthanised....I wanted so much to cry my way through this book. But it was a dispassionate laundry list of "how I felt" and "what we did". Instead of investing the writing with the gut-wrenching feelings that we go through, Mr. Levin wrote these third party "through the retrospectragraph" descriptions. "We were saddened." Yeah well duh - pull my heart out, make the tears fall - give me the words that provoke the feeling - don't tell me what you felt....make me FEEL IT for pete's sake. The cover of the book was more passionate than the writing.

This was a great book. Even though it was very sad, it was also very touching. It was very sweet to see how attached to Sprite the author was. It was nice to know there are other true dog lovers out there!

Wow what a lovely and touching journey of a man's relationship with a very special friend and an integral family member. Mark bares his soul to his readers as he copes with the passing of Sprite a dog who was with them for such a short time but had a profound effect on his life. Anyone who has loved and lost a beloved pet can empathize with his story. I highly recommend this book to any and all pet lovers and especially to those who have never let an animal into their life -- they have no idea what they are truly missing.
