Table of ContentsReviewsAbby and her service dog Amigo have been together through good days and bad. But Amigo is getting older; he does not have the energy he used to, and he spends most of his time sleeping. Abby's worries are giving her severe adjustment issues, but her family tries to prepare her for the inevitable. Losing a pet isnt easy, and for Abby, who is on the spectrum, coping will be hard. When Amigo gets sicker, Abby decides to run away with him before her parents can take him away from her. Eventually, Abby discovers how much Amigo was loved and how many people were touched by his life. Occasional black-and-white illustrations compliment the text, adding cues for more visual readers.
