Empty Collars

Author

By David A. Webb

Description

These words of George Bird Evans capture what is at the heart of Empty Collars, a collection of writings about gun dogs, their owners, and the immutable bond between them. Losing a pet is never easy, and the connection between gun dog and owner seems to have an added intensity. Studies show that after losing a pet, owners need to go through the same stages of grief that they experience with any human loss. This anthology was created in an effort to provide empathy and comfort during this time.
Hardbound. 143 pages.
