Angel Dog
A Dog’s Promise by W. Bruce Cameron is a perfectly charming contemporary novel and the third book in A Dog’s Purpose series. It can be read as a stand-alone. I had seen the movies of the first two books which were delightful, but you did need the tissues!
The novel is written through the eyes of puppy dog Bailey, whom we meet in book one. Bailey knows that he has been created for a purpose which will unfold as he moves from puppy to dog.
The reader sees the love and loyalty of Bailey (aka Cooper and Oscar) the bonds he makes will travel with him through life. He never forgets his owners.
We see the importance and the difference an assistance dog can make to those who are wheelchair bound. Lessons learnt as Cooper prove to be useful in other situations.
A Dog’s Promise was such a delightful read. It will warm your heart and leave you smiling, and wishing for a Bailey in your life.
