Good Dog. Stay. Anna Quindlen

Yesterday I read two books, obviously neither was long. The first one was Good Dog. Stay. by Anna Quindlen. Mostly it was a talk about her beloved dog Beau, but anyone who has had a dog, raised children along side the dog, and then had to watch that dog sink into death, will really find themself in her story. There are a lot of pictures of various dogs, and not much text, but it made me laugh , cry, and sigh. It occcured to me after I finished reading it that the title, and the way it was punctuated, could just be obedience commands, or the wish for the good dog to stay longer.
