The Love of a Dog: A Chronicle of a Remarkable Retriever

Some dogs change your life forever. Tasha was one of them.

When Jo Prouty's family decided to get a dog, they had no idea what they were signing up for. What began as a straightforward decision quickly became one of the most meaningful journeys of their lives from the humbling reality of care giving, through the years of laughter, quirky adventures, and unshakeable companionship, to a love so deep it never ends.

THE LOVE OF A DOG is a warm, honest, and deeply moving memoir about one remarkable Labrador retriever and the family whose lives she transformed. Tasha was no ordinary dog. She was intuitive, joyful, full of personality and she loved her family with everything she had.

What started as a tribute to one remarkable dog became a reflection on love itself, its power to shape us, sustain us and outlast us.

A perfect read for fans of "Marley and Me" and "A Big Little Life" by Dean Koontz.
