EVER BY MY SIDE A Memoir in Eight [Acts] Pets

Listening to EVER BY MY SIDE will evoke equal amounts of happiness and sadness for anyone who has ever shared life with a dog. Stories of dogs and the people who love them brighten Trout’s wonderful memoir of his life as a veterinarian and lifelong dog owner. Narrator Simon Vance describes the English countryside where Trout raised his four-legged companions. The dogs are not always perfect, but they’re real. And it’s that veritas that makes this book sound like Trout wrote it as much about his listeners' lives as his own. Listeners will laugh . . . cry . . . cheer—and be inspired to hug their dogs within an inch of their lives. M.S. © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2011]
