A Happy Truth: Last Dogs Aren't Always Last - Paperback

by D. a. Hickman (Author)

A Happy Truth is about four spirited dogs, two clever cats, and fortuitous decisions. An intriguing story with lots of twists and turns and plenty of compassion for the splendid pets that grace our lives, getting from one beloved pet to the next can be an awkward and emotional transition for many. And that's what inspired D.A. Hickman's new memoir. Never "just a dog," "just a cat," after final partings, expected or otherwise, most people feel reluctant to begin anew. Yet, uncertainty creates a stalemate, and time, a precious commodity, slips by. So despite her lingering doubts and trepidation, the author finds a way to forge on until an inspired path emerges--until she finally discovers that last dogs aren't always last. Beloved pets keep us going through the maze of life. Guiding us, inspiring us, and teaching us to stop worrying so much--especially about the next pet. Will there be another cat or dog? Is it the right time, the right season, the right cat or dog? But when we watch a sleeping animal, we know our worries are mostly in vain. We know the story is bigger than yes or no. It's about love. And that's a happy truth.
