Rating: 5 out of 5

I was touched by the depth of commitment Mr. Rodgers had for his children first of all when his wife left him.  His commitment to Conan was above and beyond what many people will give to a dog but his was 100 percent and I admire that very much.  The ups and downs with Conan make an interesting read and I had trouble putting it down to the very end.  I knew what was coming and it just happened that I read that part just days after having to make that decision about my own dog.  Oh yeah, the tears flowed but that's part of the healing process.  Jim Rodgers is a special person, a devoted father, a well loved teacher and has made his mark in the world in my opinion.  This book included details about his life and his children and, of course, a very special dog named Conan.  Anyone who has loved a dog would enjoy this book. I know I did.
