More Shelbydog Chronicles

“For those who enjoyed the first volume of the Shelbydog Chronicles, this latest offering not only continues the story but brings fresh dimensions to the relationship between a dog and her friend Mark Boyer. It quickly becomes clear that the bond between pets and people is both a physical and spiritual one. The added feature of reflection questions draws the reader into common health issues and personalizes the story of their life together. Highly recommended for all pet lovers.”
