Beautiful and insightful

As someone who has worked with people grieving the loss of their beloved dogs, I highly recommend this book. The illustrations wrap around your grieving heart, as the words give voice to feelings so hard to express. Thank you x

Grief is a Dog

A beautiful book that explores Grief and Memory and the words are supported by the most evocative drawings. This book touched my heart and soul. Each time we give our love to a dog we know we will have to travel through Grief and Memories in the future. This book helps the process.

I lost the love of my life dog Maverick Elizabeth in July. This book has helped me grieve for him. Not going to lie, it made me cry my eyes out but it is 100% what I needed.

Eloquently describes and illustrates the grief experience

This book 'hits' for me on so many levels. Elspeth perfectly describes the universal grief experience in words and illustrations (if you've lost a beloved pet and/or human). We've lost four dogs in the span of 1.5 years and this book is already a cathartic tool for me. I plan on sharing this book FAR and WIDE!! Thank you for writing this book Elspeth, it will bring comfort to so many!!

Beautiful and heartfelt

This book’s so beautiful. I love the illustrations.
The book really tugs at my heart strings, having lost my dog, my best friend, last year. My tip: Bring tissues when reading this book.

Lovely book

I was so excited to get this. It was lovely to see my rainbow bridge dogs on the dedication page. I have just read it or should I say cried through it. You have said so well how it feels. Grief never leaves it just gets easier to live with as your memories shine through. Thank you for writing this book and while it makes me cry I love it. It will be going on the shelf with the dogs that have gone before.

My grief explained so eloquently…

Elspeth, you have so eloquently explained my grief in this precious book. I began reading, and my heart was jumping from my chest with an overwhelming amount of emotion. You have put my feelings into words, and I can’t thank you enough. Literally, every word, every sentence, every illustration resonates with me so deeply. I am so thankful to have a copy and to see my most goodest boy and soul dog, Thunder Jett, on the dedication page. It’s so special! Thank you again, and I pray you will have continued success with your book, and hopefully more books to come. <3

This book should be read by everyone who has sadly lost a pet. The words describe the feelings we all go through so well and the illustrations depict them perfectly.

Such a poignant book

This is a lovely book particularly for anyone who has lost someone close - obviously especially a dog. It looks at both grief and hope in a very visual way with beautiful illustrations.
