About this listen

Get ready to laugh and cry, and fall in love with a very special little dog called Nelson!

Told in his own voice, this funny, moving and heartwarming memoir captures the mayhem, misadventures and magic of a dog who lives by his own rules – and loves with his whole being. From the moment he struts into the lives of his unconventional, wildly loving human family, life is never quite the same again – for them or for him.

Through every up and down, every happy moment and every calamity, they are always right there by his side, loving him come what may. Even when he misbehaves – which, admittedly, is most of the time.

For anyone who has ever loved and lost a dog, this beautiful book is a heartfelt reminder that love doesn’t end with goodbye. It’s a funny, tender, and hopeful journey that shows the bond between a dog and his humans is forever and leaves us with the hope that there is life after the rainbow bridge.

Poignant, hilarious, and unexpectedly profound, this is the story of one little dog who might just change how you see life — and what comes after!

This is an unusual and heart warming story of unconditional love. Nelson is quite the character and he is accepted and loved just as he is. His observations about his human family and the wider world are hilarious, perceptive and at times heart breaking. There is sadness in the story but it is treated with such warmth and love that I came away with a laugh and a tear in my eye in equal measure. The narration does justice to the beautiful and insightful writing and makes this a real gem to listen to.

An absolute gem!
