MOONLIGHT OF THE TALKING DOG
True Tales of the Broken-Heart Whisperer
“Prepare to laugh, cry, and smile with satisfaction as you follow Fitzgerald’s heartwarming stories. Hilarious, playful, and outright adorable…the book has an instantly uplifting effect that keeps you floating every time you remember it.”
Returning with the highly anticipated follow-up to her 2016 memoir, The Sun Orbits My Dog, former journalist J. B. Fitzgerald plunges fellow dog lovers back into the exciting exploits and harrowing hardships of a dedicated pup-parenting life. Continuing Georgiana’s story and introducing a German shepherd-beagle named Maisie, these anecdotes explore the wonders and humor of everyday dogdom while also delving more intimately into grief, healing, and the effects of a loyal canine companion on both.
Still struggling to cope with one tragedy, only to find herself beset by a series of others, Fitzgerald's recovery began, simply enough, with words. They were not her own words, committed to paper and publication, nor were they the sage observations of a traditional therapist. These musings came instead from the amazing, talking mutt who would repeatedly turn the phrase rescue dog on its irresistibly floppy ear.
By reader request, this second illustrated volume of the Operation Wigglebutt Chronicles boasts hundreds of new photographs. For those who give their hearts utterly to their furry friends, Moonlight of the Talking Dog is a veritable feast for the eyes and a salve for the soul.
