Reba before her accident
Book Title: One Paw at a Time
Book Blurb: How would you cope if your dog suddenly became disabled after an accident? This is the situation Jo Sellers found herself in when her beloved dog Reba ran into a tree in her garden in the dark. She found herself in her worst nightmare, with her dog hanging onto life by a thread, with a broken neck making her body unresponsive. From that moment, her world turned upside down and she has chronicled her emotional journey from the moment of the accident, the surgical interventions, and the long process of helping her dog heal not only from the physical injuries, but the emotional ones too. She is an expert in canine separation anxiety, but had never had to nurse a dog back to health before. Follow Jo through the steps she took to adapt to her dog’s changing needs, how she helped to teach her dog to stand and walk again, and how you can find inspiration from any similar situation of rehabilitating a dog after spinal injury.

MY THOUGHTS
I am a real animal lover. I am even a vegetarian. Having read many nonfiction animal books with sad endings I haven’t read a nonfiction animal book in years as I am very hesitant to read them and get sad. But……….. for some reason I was drawn to this book. Little Reba is adorable, and I really couldn’t resist reading her story.
After Reba’s accident her owner is highly dedicated to her. And we follow along on her journey to wellness through many sleepless nights for owner and her dog both. It made me happy to see the devotion the owner has to her dog through good days and bad. This little dog is so smart and gave it her all trying to heal and get back to normal. Very encouraging book! Highly recommended book, I just loved it!
I was given a complimentary copy of this book.
