A gift in the mail from a dog lover (and author)

About a month ago, I was feeling a little bored and took a photograph of some of the books in my bookcase and ended up posting it on my blog. How boring, I thought. A picture of my bookcase? To my surprise, a reader e-mailed to tell me that she saw her border collie book on my bookshelf.

When she looked closer at the book, however, she realized that it wasn’t hers. But what a surprise she had for a moment there. She introduced herself, telling me that she’s a freelance writer with a specialty in canine welfare. She said that she’d stumbled upon my blog about six months prior and enjoyed the photos of George. And then she offered to send me a copy of her book.

And just a few days later, this gift came in the mail.

There’s a wealth of information on the breed, and some excellent advice. Tracy Libby has written several books for both the Terra-Nova Series and the Animal Planet Pet Care Library.

And I’m always surprised at who’s out there reading this blog.

Published authors, no less.

I’ve said it before Tracy, and I’ll say it again. Thanks so much for the gift. Love it.

Until tomorrow, my friends . . .

Hope your Wednesday’s a good one.
