New Book Helps People Celebrate Their 'Soul Bond' with Their Dogs
Author and dog lover Jean Alfieri’s Blessed to Be Your Dog title is the memory book that immortalizes their pets
Jean Alfieri knew when her eyes locked with those of a smooshy-faced little dog who sat inside a kennel at the Humane Society, that it was love at first sight. After almost a decade of making memories, it was a labor of love for Alfieri to self-publish a collection of short story poems starring her precious pug named “Zuggy,” some years after he died. She wanted to ensure that her fondest memories with her beloved pet would not be forgotten. In doing this, the author realized how much of our human legacy is lost within a single generation. Inspired, she created Blessed to be Me and Blessed to be Your Dog, to serve as guides for capturing and celebrating the stories of people’s lives with and without pets.
Blessed to be Your Dog, her latest work, offers over a dozen major and minor prompts, inspiring quotes, and coloring pages that make storytelling fun and easy. Half the prompts are meant to be answered by the human part of the equation while the other half encourage that human to tell stories from their pup’s point of view.
