Dogs I Have Loved
A Collection of Stories
Last night I dreamed about the most beloved dog I’ve ever had the good fortune to share my life with.

Then, this morning, my Facebook feed was filled with dog memes and photos, so I thought it might be time to put together a collection of my dog stories, in case anyone finds canine companionship comforting as we slide into the cooler fall weather.

Happy reading, preferably by a warm fireplace with a four-legged snoozing at your feet!
