The human relationship with dogs is older and more unique than that of humans with any other animal. This book is an exploration of this relationship from the personal perspective of the author, with the added insight of others who lovingly testify to the many ways dogs have enriched their lives. It includes stories of the roles dogs have played in the lives of saints and details the many services they render to human beings in general. Finally, the text explores the virtues, (yes virtues) dogs can teach us which have such immeasurable capacity to enrich our lives.
