An inspiring memoir that “shows how service dogs can save lives . . . Hardiman shares his story of faith and perseverance” (North Dallas Gazette.com). A dog. A man. A miracle. In Bailey’s Remarkable Plan, David R. Hardiman shares his poignant story of struggle, prejudice, and pain. But this is also a story of perseverance, triumph, and love. Hardiman discovers that his four-footed companion, delivered to him by chance, is more than his best friend. Bailey is also his service dog, a shih tzu with an extraordinary gift—part of God’s “remarkable plan”—that allows her to assist, to protect, and to love. Bailey’s Remarkable Plan will inspire you, inform you, and challenge you to feel compassion for those suffering silently among us because of circumstances beyond their control. God sent Bailey to this earth as part of His plan, an angel in the form of a remarkable dog. Not the typical service dog, Bailey performs a miracle in the life of her owner and friend. And Hardiman’s story will touch your heart as you journey along with the boy who became a man encircled by love. “This book takes the reader on the author’s decades-long journey living with a rare medical condition coupled with post-traumatic stress disorder and Bailey’s intuitive ability to help him cope.”—Fort Worth Magazine “Bailey’s Remarkable Plan is a powerful, true story about a service dog that breaks all stereotypes and reveals a timely message of hope.”—Mike Norris, film director
