Overview

This is an illustrated book about the special dogs that find the artist throughout her life. None of the dogs belong to her, but different occasions and opportunities bring them to her: in childhood, when a neighbour finds a puppy by a country road and brings it home; when she moves to a cabin in the forest that includes the neighbours' free-roaming border collie and pampered shepherd-mix; and in her various jobs: dog sitting in the Mediterranean, volunteering at a jungle lodge in the Caribbean with beach dogs, at a dog shelter in Sicily where she learns about pack mentality, and in India, where she helps a mange dog survive. While she cares for the dogs, they also protect and guide her as she searches for her own place in life - through pilgrimage, love and loss, loneliness, questioning, faith, laughter, pastoral landscapes and wilderness. She honours each dog with an oil pastel painting.
