When you say, “We may have lost stamina temporarily, but we gained endurance” … so good! Beautifully written <3

Andrew your writing is so poignant. It was just hours after attending a funeral for a family member that I read it and so much of it rings true and gives hope. Thank you.

The only way I could get through losing my Soul Dog was bringing in two more. A totally different and extremely rewarding experience and with shows daily. Great. Until they go back to back in two years...I'm trying again with a now 9 month old rescue from Louisiana. All my dogs were Black Labs and this one is Black Lab and pretty sure Border Collie mix. I do believe she needs a partner...right now I'm lucky I was allowed to bring another one in at all.

Beautiful stories and writing. I'll be buying the book. Thank you, Andrew.

Thank you Andrew for your stories about your boys. Having lost my Ollie a month ago I'm just now beginning the path to healing. I appreciate your heart and willingness to share your journey.

This was really beautifully written. "Grief is a terrible friend, but a great teacher" - So bittersweet and true.

Thank you Andrew. We adopted Karma into our family October 2023, 10 months after losing Moira’s sister Katie. Both exceptional adventure dogs whom we miss daily. Karma is an amazingly smart dog who we love and who takes us on many adventures. We are working on finding an adventure partner fir her. She is different than Momo and Katie but it is fun figuring each other out. I look forward to reading your future adventures.

Best prose I've read on grief - ending with a positive is always good! Love it

I just binged Momo parts 1-5. You are just as brilliant a writer as you are a photographer. I have an 11 year old border collie mix who has been slowing down for the last couple of years and I know my time with her is limited. Reading this has been a nudge to more fully embrace the time we have left together instead of hiding from the fact that it will eventually come to an end. <3 Thank you, Andrew.
