At times hysterical, tear-jerking, always enthralling, Real Dogs Don’t Whisper is more than a book about dogs – it’s a book about life. Read about four rescue dogs with special needs teaching their human about life, all on a discovery.
Meet a family like no other: Kelly, Mr. MaGoo, Buffy, Carla Mae, and Betty Boop. A girl, her two Lhasa Apsos, one Cocker Spaniel, and one adorable mutt – each with his or her own challenging set of difficulties to overcome. One puppy has serious neurological disorders. Two were severely abused. All are on a journey of discovery. Together, learning love and patience along the way, they have grown and thrived, perhaps none so much as the girl:
“Dr. Hilinski turned to me and said gravely, ‘In thirty minutes, we’ll have to call it, Kelly. I’m sorry.’ I wanted to cry but knew I had to be strong. I just knew that Betty Boop would be able to feel my energy. When it was Gizmo’s time, I told her it was okay to go. Maybe the opposite approach would work this time. With two minutes left in the doctor’s grace period, I leaned in close to Betty Boop. ‘Mommy's here,’ I whispered. ‘It’s not your time to go yet. Not yet… not yet, my Betty Boop.’ Suddenly she inhaled deeply, and then began breathing on her own. It was a miracle. ‘Amazing,’ Dr. Hilinski said, and then he repeated: ‘amazing.’”
Real Dogs Don’t Whisper: Life Lessons from a Larger than Life Dog! (and his Owner), is the true story of a remarkable family as told in a unique way by both Kelly Preston, the owner of the household, and her spunky, hilarious, nine-year old Lhasa Apso, Mr. MaGoo.
