The death of Moose, the family dog, inspired author Jack Cotton to compile for his children a series of lessons gleaned from their canine companion of many years.

What does a dog know about living life? As this wise and warm new book explains, Moose understood quite a lot: from "Love Unconditionally" (I'm not always in the best mood....but that never affected Moose") to "Take a Nap in a Sunny Spot" ("every now and then find a nice, warm spot....and just snooze. There is no better way to reset the stress meter we all carry with us.")

The lessons Moose shares were written for children, but they will resonate with everyone who loves a dog or know someone who does. A Dog's Guide to Life, Lessons from "Moose" is a Chihuahua size book inspired by St. Bernard-size ideas and readers everywhere will be "woofing" about it.

About the Author

As a single dad trying to make joint custody work, I brought Moose into our lives as a puppy some nine years earlier. He made the difficult process of the children going between homes a lot easier. Over the years, he was an integral player in many happy times. He especially loved the outdoor shower, passing gas during movies, and samples from the grill. The main focus of his attention was the burgeoning squirrel population in our yard. Several times each day, a carefully calculated attack ended in a breathless standoff of locked, odious stares between ground and treetops. As reflected on the blessings of a wonderful relationship with my fabulous kids, I realized how much I owed Moose.

After he passed on, I wanted to write something for Melissa and Andrew to remember him by. I also wanted our newborn son, Maxwell, to get to know Moose. The lessons contained herein center on his little quirks - some typical of dogs, some not. I think of these lessons daily and try to live by them. I sincerely hope you will enjoy reading and sharing them as well.
