A Big Little Life

a Memoir of a Joyful Dog
Jun 18, 2015vv11 rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Dean Koontz and his wife lived a quiet, happy life as a family of two for more than thirty years. Then in September 1998, Trixie Koontz, a three-year-old golden retriever, recently retired as a service dog with Canine Companions for Independence, turned them into a family of three. In this book, Koontz describes how their precious "daughter" changed their lives. For nine years Trixie was a member of the Koontz family. During that time she taught her "dad" how to trust his instincts, make time for play in a busy work schedule, and most importantly renewed his sense of wonder in the world. Whether or not you're an animal lover, you should enjoy this memoir.
