description: The story of a dog his human and the friendship that saved both of their lives.When Ben Moon moved from the Midwest to Oregon he hadn't planned on getting a dog. But when he first met the soulful gaze of a rescue pup in a shelter Ben instantly felt a connection and his friendship with Denali was born. The two of them set out on the road together on an adventure that would take them across the American west and through some of the best years of their lives. But when Ben was diagnosed with colorectal cancer at age 29 he faced a difficult battle with the disease and Denali never once left his side until they were back out surfing and climbing crags. It was only a short time later that Denali was struck by the same disease and Ben had the chance to return the favor. Denali is the story of this powerful friendship that shaped Ben and Denali's lives showing the strength and love that we give and receive when we have our friends by our side.
