It's Just A Dog (English Edition) Formato Kindle
AMAZON KINDLE BESTSELLER!
What if your dog died and then came back as a ghost…that could talk? Would you welcome him back with open arms, or run away scared to death?
This is the premise of IT’S JUST A DOG, a humorous, heartwarming new novel about love, pet loss, and one man’s ghost dog who rises up yapping from the grave as a talking dog.
Charlie Keefe is not just your typical dog lover –– he’s a world famous dog painter, a.k.a. “The Picasso of Pooch Portraits”. Unfortunately, Charlie’s beloved muse, Pete, his lovable Jack Russell terrier, has just died. And he’s totally grief-stricken by the loss of his furry best friend.
So, after months of suffering over his dearly departed soulmate and wondering if he ever made it to The Rainbow Bridge in Dog Heaven, Charlie reluctantly agrees to foster a new puppy –– a cute Cavalier King Charles named Brownie from the local animal shelter. Soon after, Charlie is surprised to find himself falling head over heels with this new puppy girl, his ‘Rebound Dog’, as he calls her –– as well as being romantically attracted to Janelle, the head hound at the dog rescue.
But then complications arise when the ghost of his old dog, Pete, mysteriously reappears one night and comes back to haunt him and the new puppy –– setting off a bizarre chain of events that throw Charlie’s life, career, and entire belief system into chaos!
If you like funny dog movies and have enjoyed such classic dog books as Old Yeller, The Art of Racing in the Rain, Marley and Me, A Dog’s Purpose, or other animal fiction by Karen McQuestion (HELLO LOVE), Catherine Ryan Hyde (WHERE WE BELONG), Susan Wilson (ONE GOOD DOG) and Dav Pilkey's DOG MAN books, then you are bound to find a place in your heart for IT’S JUST A DOG.
It's Just A Dog is for anyone who has ever lost a pet –– and learned to love again. Regardless of whether you're a fan of literary fiction, women's fiction, or just yearn for an old-fashioned love story with humor, you will find something to smile about in this laugh out loud romantic comedy -- an Amazon Kindle Bestseller!
*A portion of the proceeds have been donated to Muttville Senior Dog Rescue (in San Francisco, California), a rescue which believes that every dog deserves a happy ending.

I enjoyed the book. I like the idea of Dog talking, not JUST A DOG, a dead dog. I actually had to stop reading because the story called my attention to MY OWN DOG, who is 11 years old papillon.
Now, I am closing the book, wishing for a swift end to the spread of COVID-19.

Although some found "Ghost Pete" obnoxious, I found him to be smart and comical.
The book starts with a middle-aged man losing his dog of 13 years. It's at this point, I cried through several chapters. Books rarely make me cry, heck, it takes a LOT to make me cry! But, this is so well written and so close to home, it was impossible to keep my eyes dry!
Our hero is an artist who's devastated when his beloved Jack Russel Terrier dies and he's forced to come to terms with this fact. The characters are believable and definitely not the current influx of two dimensional characters found in so many books theses days. The people he comes into contact with say and do some of the real and sometimes thoughtless things a lot of people do when one loses a beloved pet. I.e. "So, are you going to get another dog?" One of my favorite "least favorite" comments people often say. As if his dog was a broken vase or torn sock.
His success comes from paintings he's done of his dog and sell for thousands around the world. When Pete dies, he can't paint, he can barely breathe. Anyone whose lost a long-time pet, in his case, 13 years, knows the grief associated with losing such a love.
One particularly moving comment (I shared on Twitter) was: "Don't cry because you lost him, smile because you had him" It took me years to stop grieving over a very special black cat, named Amy, who was more like a dog than a cat. She got me through cancer and always waited for me at the door when I came home from work. Seven years later, she's still a loss, although I resolved the typical "NO MORE PETS, IT'S NOT WORTH THE GRIEF". But I married into two and a starving kitten arrived almost two years later and he's a joy!
People start thinking he's nuts, because in his small town, everybody, knows every thing about every body! When word gets out about Pete showing up, four months after his death, it stays a secret for about nine seconds. Thanks to his Art Manager. Although only he can see or hear Pete, the other animals can too and makes a believer out of several.
The book doesn't focus too much on the antics of Ghost Pete, it's just enough to give this book an added flavor. Basically, it's definitely the meat of this book. The rest is realistic, sometimes quite funny and an excellent read. I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves animals, and will also show that the love of a pet, any pet, is worth the grief...even if it doesn't seem to at the time of their passing.
