I don't review short stories period!  So, I make a liar of myself now.This makes Lassie Comes Home look mild.  It is heart warming and shows how the human and animal spirit can bind.  I am a dog lover and can identify with the pain of losing a dog, so beautifully portrayed here.  I also identify with the unconditional love between owner and dog, again portrayed here beautifully.This is a unique story for Rick and I love him for it.  Note two quotes from the book.Sometimes the heart knows far more than the mind can comprehend.  AndI think God helps to make up for our shortcomings by putting other creatures squarely into our life's path.Thank you Rick for this short story gift to us.Obviously, you must read this.  But, bring kleenex!
