An unexpected gift turns one best man's life upside down - in the best way possible.
Dogs aren't often considered as a gift for a best man. But for two lifelong friends, the unexpected choice proves to be the right one. When lifelong friends Vern and Wendall reunite for Wendall's wedding in the Outer Banks, Vern is presented with an unexpected gift - a Jack Russell Terrier puppy named Bella. With a crazy work schedule and very little free time, Vern doubts he is a good match for Bella, and Bella seems to agree. But with encouragement from the bride and groom, he agrees to take her home. Unlikely roommates, these two unique personalities learn to navigate life in each other's orbit, as Vern begins to understand just how powerful a connection with an animal can be. From travel adventures to heartbreak, their journey from Bella's puppyhood to old age is a moving testament to the strength of the human-canine bond.
A heartfelt memoir, Tales from the Heart examines the physical and psychological effects of pet ownership, highlighting both the good and bad. Reflecting on his friendship with Bella, Anderson shares the ups and downs of raising a spitfire Jack Russell while balancing his own life. Appealing to dog owners and pet enthusiasts, the book serves as a useful reference for anyone considering or questioning the benefits of canine companionship.
