Dogs are the purest form of love. They bring us joy every day until their very last.

Oh Julie. I’m late reading this one…tears everywhere. So tender, so beautiful. Oh, my heart - it’s almost too much (in the right kind of way). ♥️🙏♥️

Thank you, dear Julia. I totally get the "almost too much" feeling. Touching that live wire can be so overwhelming sometimes, but I like to remember it's all because there was so much love. It's not lost, it just moves into energy, and we can still find it there.

You made me teary. You've expressed so clearly what all dog lovers experience sooner or later, with simultaneous grief and gratitude. I loved Dog Medicine and identified with so much of it. Thank you for sharing your journey with your beloved pup.

Julie, I’ve just checked out your book from our library, so I’m happy to spend the weekend reading it. I was also loved by a dear stray named Meggie.
