Dedication

From Michelle

For Bob B. Bridge—‟BBB” the best writer I’ve ever read, an amazing mentor, a great friend, and the only person I know who might love dogs more than I do.

Also, in memory of my late dog-loving mother Marion Medlock— who fed every stray in the neighborhood. I’m sure your heavenly home is flled with many fur babies.

From Wendy To all the dogs I’ve loved who’ve shown me God’s love and acceptance in its purest form. I truly believe dogs are God’s special gif to us.

They will almost always point us to Him if we take the tme to look.

And to my dad—the man who is always there when you need him. I’m proud to call you my Pop.
