New York Times bestselling author Maria Goodavage takes us on a thrilling, delightful, globe-trotting journey to discover the heartwarming and fascinating new world of doctor dogs. In this groundbreaking book, Goodavage brings us behind the scenes of cutting-edge science at top research centers, and into the lives of people whose well-being depends on their devoted, highly skilled personal MDs (medical dogs). With her signature wit and passion, Goodavage explores how doctor dogs are becoming our happy allies in the fight against dozens of physical and mental conditions. We meet dogs who detect cancer and Parkinson’s disease, and dogs who alert people to seizures and diabetic lows or highs and other life-threatening physical ailments. Goodavage reveals the revolutionary ways dogs are helping those with autism, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder. And she introduces us to intrepid canines who are protecting us from antibiotic-resistant bugs, and to dogs who may one day help keep us safe from epidemic catastrophe. Their paycheck for their lifesaving work? Heartfelt praise and a tasty treat or favorite toy. The emotional element in Doctor Dogs delivers as powerfully as the science. You don’t have to be a dog lover to care deeply about what these dogs are doing and what we are learning from them—although if you’re not a dog lover, you probably will be by the end of the book.

After eight years together, Mum and Dad finally married in Clapton on 4 April 1956. Apparently it snowed. After the ceremony at St Andrews Church, photos were taken at Auntie Gertie and Uncle Oliver’s house in Loughton. Gertie’s daughter (Mum’s niece), Janet, was chief bridesmaid, and both full families were in attendance with one exception. Not long before the wedding, Grandma Edie had died. In the wedding photographs, whilst Dad looks full of pride and happiness, Mum appears sad but radiant. She was given away by her brother John. The reception was at the rambling King’s Head pub in Chigwell. Mum and Dad were a good match. Dad was highly sociable and could talk to anyone. Mum was naturally shy, unusual in the Kirby family, but she gained in confidence as she got older with Dad by her side. Mum covered up her shyness by talking a lot, and she said a lot of funny things. Dad was placid, with never a bad word to say about anyone. He hated confrontation. Mum was emotional at times, and I’m the same. Mum used to say the reason we argued was because we were so alike.

Many people probably think that all the fuss that breeders and fanciers make over their purebred dogs how they look, how they move is unnecessary. Why do the teeth need to be just so? Why does a judge do such a thorough hands-on evaluation of twenty dogs that to most of us look so much alike? The answer lies in the fact that purebred dogs are bred for a specific purpose and that the structure of the dog impacts its ability to do what it has been bred for be it retrieving game, guarding livestock, tracking lost people, or pulling sleds full of supplies to a snowed-in village.

It doesn’t matter that I don’t have a Daddy for real. I spend a few nights a week at Surrender setting up scenes to exercise my brat. But now my life is in danger. Letting Colton move in with me to protect me puts a cramp in my style. How am I going to be myself around him and fulfill my own desires? He’s not even a club member. And Colton is certainly not a Daddy. Or maybe he just doesn’t realize it yet. Colton I’ve worked undercover for a long time. I’ve seen everything. Or…maybe not. The gorgeous woman I’m assigned to protect has two sides. I’ve always known I’m rather dominant, but a Daddy? This is new to me. I need to play the role to keep her safe. It’s just for a few weeks. I’m shocked when I tap into a side of me I never knew existed. Evelyn tugs at my heart. Both her little and her adult. It doesn’t take long to know she is mine. Undercover work is not conducive to long-term relationships. Eve deserves more. When this assignment is over, I’ll never see her again. I’m treading on thin ice. Now what?
