A Dog and His Best Friend
|
A fellow dog lover gave me Merle's Door for my birthday. I hesitated at first knowing that eventually Merle would be joining my past dogs waiting for me in Heaven. But, I dove in mostly because of the fetching photo of Merle on the front jacket.
Ted Kerasote is a supremely engaging writer. His powers of observation and ability to get it on the page is an absolute pleasure to read. Ted's love of the canine, and all the natural world is embracing, immense really. How the relationship begins is astounding, as Ted makes it abundantly clear that was the dog who chose the man, not the other way around. Poetic and simply beautiful, Kerasote takes us on their journey of life together.
When I got to the part when inevitably, Merle's health is on the wane, I had to put the book down for a few weeks. I sent an email to Kerasote and expressed my feelings for the book and how many recommendations I had made to all my dog loving friends. Ted wrote back a few days later, thanked me, and I gathered my strength to complete the book, which was difficult I admit.
Merle's life with Ted has stayed with me as if I was physically present for all those years. So, assuming I get to Heaven, I hope to see Merle along with my beloved pooches - Bert, Spike and Pepsi. |
