SSharing grief is always a challenge
because it requires more than one person to feel the pain. However,
if it can be a strengthening force, it becomes a noble deed. By
sharing not only her pain but also the testimonials and stories of
others who have lost pets and, more importantly, still felt and
witnessed their continued presence in their lives, this book can
serve as a great comfort for anyone dealing with having a sick, old,
or recently deceased family pet. Heartwarming photos, personal
recollections, and even bits of poetry will open up the readers’
hearts and give them the opportunity to fully reflect upon and
appreciate the myriad ways that dogs, cats, or other pets can teach
valuable lessons about love, service, and joy.
-US Review of Books -Review by Michael
Radon
“Following up on Walking With the Shadow
of Love (2013), her tribute to her dog Zeak and his ongoing presence
after his death from cancer, Bowblis…sketches a loving profile of
Lakota, her black Labrador.…Lakota was athletic…yet so gentle with
children and older people that he became a beloved therapy dog.
Lakota succumbed to…ailments but he consoled the distraught author
by contacting her from the beyond in dream visitations, waking
apparitions, ghostly outlines in photographs, and a fleeting sense
that he was lying beside her in bed….Bowblis…delivers stories from
animal lovers like Samantha, whose cat died… but then returned as
the sensation of an invisible feline rubbing against her legs. The
author paints richly textured portraits of relationships between
very involved owners and their pets…She conveys it all in prose
that’s vividly evocative and emotionally stirring…This engrossing
and luminous account of how canines weave themselves into people’s
souls will resonate with dog lovers.” –Kirkus Reviews
