More Shelbydog Chronicles: Reflections on a Dog's Life by Her Friend, Knowing Your Pet - Paperback

by Mark G. Boyer (Author)

This book continues The Shelbydog Chronicles by Shelby Cole, in which Shelby, a sixty-pound Labrador-Boxer mix, narrates the events of the first ten years of her life. As she approaches her twelfth birthday, she has delegated her friend, Mark G. Boyer, to write More Shelbydog Chronicles. Boyer shares the experiences he has had with Shelbydog in twenty-seven short reflections with the goal of fostering reflection on how one's life intersects with one's pet. At the end of each chapter are reflection questions designed to help the readers get to know their pets better and get to know themselves better, too. Just as Shelbydog has changed Boyer's physical and spiritual life, the readers will become aware of how their pets have changed their own physical and spiritual lives.
