Story of Love Beyond Measure

This is truly a wonderful book. Altho about a Border Collie - anyone who is guardian to a dog will enjoy this book. With compassion and Love, Elizabeth Rose tells her story about a dog with epilepsy. Forewarned, it will make you cry, but the tears are well worth the read. I Loved the book.

"For the Love of a Dog" is for those of us who relate better to pets instead of people. This is a riveting book that is hard to put down. It is a very well written and heart-felt story about a Border collie.

For The Love Of A Dog

This book is worth reading if only for Kierney, the beautiful, tragic, brilliant dog who stole the author's heart as a tiny puppy and died at only four years of age. Despite what some people might say, I think Lisa did the best she could for Kierney. She made some mistakes, but we all do that, and when it counted, she was there for her dog. I have a Heeler mix with a congenital spine defect that keeps her from walking and also affects her brain in some ways, and I think that as long as she can be happy, it is worth whatever it takes. Kierney's story is heartbreaking and there is no happy ending, but the book is worth reading so you can get to know this dog. She is incredible, and Lisa truly loved her. For a story of a very deep, moving relationship between woman and dog, read For The Love Of A Dog.

This book is a splendid work of art

This is a stunning memoir of all the animals Elisabeth ever loved and/or interacted with. Especially dogs(via the title). But,as I was quite suprise,it is not just dogs. There are horses involved in this book too. A must for animal lovers, FOR THE LOVE OF A DOG, tells of the immense complexity that is the amazing relationship with and attachment to animals. It proves that animals really do have souls. Amazing book.

Good stuff - Recommend you read it!

A very good book. I normally do not like this sort of book/story/work, but this is different. Very well written and is great food for thought. Well done. Hope we see more of this writer.
