Publisher's Synopsis
This book was written in honor of Misty Rodriguez. She lived to be seventeen years and seven months old. It is about the love, joy and challenges she gave me. The main character in this book is Misty. About our love and experiences together. I wanted to tell the world how our pets communicate their feelings and desires to us. It is therapeutic when you have a pet. She had her own personality, she was a happy dog who made me and others happy also. She was well behaved and never hurt anyone.
It is about how smart she was as to give me her other paw when I had cut the hair on one paw while grooming her. So smart to listen to the commands and obey them. Especially when I would say, "You have to eat more than that." She would obey and go eat more.
Misty was potty trained in a pee box which I built for her, because I lived in an upstairs apartment. I had real dirt and real grass set in a plastic inside the box to prevent any leaks. People would say, I should design a box and sell them. The dirt and grass were changed often. Her pee box was placed on my open patio outside.
She was known by all the family members and also had friends and their dogs come visit her as you will see when you read this book.
Misty had her four-generation pedigree on her mother's side. She had two siblings but one died at birth. The story of her siblings is in this book.
I invited family members and five of Misty's friends to participate, in the stories in this book, sharing stories of their own special dogs.
The book is not only about my precious dog Misty. It is about the stories of family dogs and their experiences and the love they share with us as humans. All based on our relationship with "man's best friend."
She was loved by many people and I received condolences and flowers when Misty left this earth.
Included in this book are three other special dogs we had in our family and the special dog sitters Misty had.
