Rememberer with Dog

An unforgettable story of self-discovery while caring for family and pets through all seasons of their lives.

"I looked down at the puppy on my lap... For reasons unknown, I felt responsible for him the moment that I met him. There was also something else I didn't realize at the time that I can say now without hesitation: I needed him."

With his career successfully underway, Ben buys a house and gets his first dog. As their bond strengthens he meets Cheryl, and they begin a relationship with the potential to be the one that lasts. The future looks promising.

But as they consider next steps together, her mother passes, leaving behind a farm, an older husband suffering from dementia and four dogs who need a new home. This unplanned situation is not part of the fresh beginning the couple have in mind for themselves. What should they do, and how will the choices impact their relationship and the rest of their lives?

Balanced with depth and humor, Rememberer with Dog is a story of finding purpose and direction in circumstances that seem overwhelming, the emotions inherent in making sacrifices, and the stirring hope that exists on the far side of the big questions that ultimately face everyone.
