>   Due to its visages of fiction, such as a dog who
> writes letters, the book
> can be catalogued as fantasy.  However, it's based
> on our experiences
> together, real facts such as her life as a working
> dog and the pet of an
> animal lover mommy.  Suzie and I have had a very
> close relationship and we
> were so tuned with each other that I have been able
> to translate her
> feelings and thoughts into words.  For that reason I
> sincerely can state
> that Suzie and I wrote this book together.  We began
> writing this story soon
> after I brought her home, full of hopes and plans
> for a future that I
> imagined endless.  Life is unpredictable, my Suzie
> departed unexpectedly and
> I had to walk alone the rest of the road.

> 
>   Suzie, a gorgeous and clever German Shepherd

> of an animal lover mommy
> who stimulates her emotionally and intellectually. 
> The reader also learns
