I have included some terrifying, heart-breaking moments, alongside some of the best and most incredible moments too.

As some of my own dogs are in some of the chapters too, I have had a chance to relive those memories, cry a bit, smile a lot and laugh out loud too, when I remember some of their incredible antics. (less)
