A primary goal of mine, through writing Watson's Way, is to convert people into dog lovers. Why? Because I believe that dogs help us connect better with other people. This happens, in no small part, because dogs are (with few exceptions) incredibly generous, patient and forgiving. And what's not to love about that? I hope you enjoy this excerpt from Watson's Way and consider grabbing a copy for the non-dog-person in your life. You'll be glad you did. And so will they. #dogs #connection #generosity #patient #forgiving #laughter #awesome

Book Excerpt

Watson's Way

EVEN THOUGH HE WAS generally the first in our family to be fed in the morning, Watson would often be the last fed in the evening because his feline brothers were far more insistent about being waited on. The cats yelled. Truth be told, because of Watson’s very good manners, the bipeds in our house would sometimes entirely forget to feed him his dinner. Watson would wait until his persons were done eating before coming over to one of us. Then, he’d gently nuzzle one of our arms, grateful that we were taken care of. “Perhaps now you could take care of me?” he seemed to be saying.
