Ellis Weiner, author of How to Raise a Jewish Dog"Tracy Stopler has written a compassionate, entertaining, and thoughtprovoking novel that pulled at my heartstrings.

You will laugh and cry as you discover your own strengths to overcome lifes most challenging circumstances. This story will inspire you to rescue a dog or two. Dr. Noah, VeterinarianJavi weaves a hypnotic, fairy tale thats strong enough to transform darkness into light. TaliThere are no words in any language to describe the love between a dog and his human. If only humans knew with certainty that their beloved best friends remain with them always in some way, in some form, for their existence here on Earth. I believe that now. JavierA Message from the AuthorThis is my love story to Javi and Binah. If you love animals, especially dogs, youll understand.In all great fairy tales theres always a plotline where some dog goes beyond his perceived limitations. You dont have to be a superhero in order for your dreams to come true. You just need the courage to break free from your comfort zone. Its the only road to happily ever after.
