Chicken Soup for the Soul: Lessons Learned from My Dog with Amy Newmark

This New Year is a great time to reflect upon how our dogs make us better people. If we rescued them, they rescued us back. If we’re sad, they comfort us. If we need to have more fun, they show us how. Join Amy Newmark, Chicken Soup for the Soul publisher, and I on Wednesday, January 25th, from 10 AM -11 AM CT U.S. We are discussing how dogs are our protectors, role models, and best friends! 

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Lessons Learned from My Dog has 101 stories of how much we learn from our dogs - from keeping us company to providing unconditional love and sharing in the ups and downs of our lives. Attention dog lovers, you will be laughing, tearing up, and nodding your heads in recognition as Amy and I dive into these 101 touching, inspiring, and sometimes mind-boggling stories about all the ways in which our dogs enrich our lives, become part of our families and make us better people.

Chicken Soup for the Soul is donating royalties from the book to American Humane. In keeping with Chicken Soup for the Soul’s support for pet adoption and shelters, the 101 stories chosen for the book from thousands of submissions are not only inspirational and fun, but also feature rescued dogs, including black dogs, senior dogs, and pit bulls, the categories of dogs that are often left behind at shelters. Chicken Soup for the Soul’s mission is to make people think “shelter first” when they’re considering adding a new pet to their families.
