Description
A Dog's Promise is the heart-warming and uplifting story about one dog who fulfils his promise and helps a family who needs him the most.
The dog who thinks of himself as 'Bailey' knows one thing for sure: all dogs go to heaven after they have fulfilled their purpose on earth. But Bailey's work on earth is far from finished; there are still so many more humans that need a dog's talent for unconditional love.
There is one family in particular that needs Bailey's help, a family that is on the verge of breaking apart. But if Bailey helps this family, he won't remember his previous lives, the connections he's made, and the humans he's met and loved. Bailey must decide whether to sacrifice everything to heal this one, desperate family.
A Dog's Promise is a deeply emotional, beautifully told tale that will speak to dog lovers all over the world who wonder, could this dog have been sent to us specifically, for a reason? A Dog's Promise provides the answer to that eternal question with a resounding, and uplifting, 'Yes!'
