Summary

As a Sister, I have rescued different dogs and kept themuntil their journey to the Rainbow Bridge.At present, the dog at the heart of this book is a flat haired fox terrier. He was adopted from a Terrier rescue couple at age 8.Rocky's situation was similar to that of a foster child.He was passed around multiple times, placed insituations beyond his control and he struggled to makeadjustments. Now, he is a 10 year old loving, intelligent terrier keepingthe sisters, elderly people, and youngsters all enchantedwith his unconditional love, protection and antics.The book is a profound mixture of compassion, concernand love for God, children and canines.The need for security in a world of furry creatures and little people is apparent and sadly missing in our lives.Neither children, nor dogs understand the why of lackof concern and feeling unwanted. Feelings such as:anxiety, exclusion, unlovability, loneliness and inferiorityare threats in their lives.So this book came to be in order to create awareness ofthe need for love, care and concern in the lives of children and dogs.The innocence and unconditional love of a dog is areflection of an anonymous quote which says, God didn'twant man to live alone so He created the dog.Rocky and all animals are a daily presence of the Lord'sdesire for us not to feel abandoned.
