There lives in the minds of almost every boy and girl a memory of love and friendship indelibly etched by a dog. No matter how old we grow, those fond memories can still stir our souls and bring tears to our eyes. They harken us back to times of joy and times of trial our beloved canines saw us thorough. In those special relationships, we learned volumes. Not only did those relationships mold us and help us to grow, they gave us insight into the world around us. Interestingly, parallels exist between childhood development and canine development. This book is directed to our learning from these parallels and being better able to communicate with our canine friends by understanding them more fully. It is based on a true story and gives helpful suggestions and training tips to assist you with your dog or child. Just as there are obstacles to overcome in dog training, so there is a parallel that can be drawn with learning for troubled youth. Through the course of this story, actual experiences will point to real solutions. One entire chapter is dedicated to canine ailments and how one can identify and treat them. This is not to act as a substituted for professional veterinary care but could be considered a good lesson in dog first aid. In a new and revealing way, this book seeks to broaden how we see the world in which kids and dogs grow up. It points to instances where we can be of benefit to these two groups and no longer be in the presence of "Angels Unaware."
