I want to have the Heart of a Dogis an amazing text. Perhaps it is a collection of significant life history vignettes, stories which show powerful and dramatic moments and events in the lives of the author, Genie Gabriel, and her loving fur babies. Perhaps Heart of a Dog isa powerful Reikie(an ancient method for channeling life force energy for relaxation and healing) manifesto, a calming book that celebrates the spiritual connections between humankind and dogs—and the complex journeys we share daily. This book will make readers smile, laugh, perhaps even weep– but everyone will come away enlightened and joyful.  All the wisdom and positive influences of the author’s canine friends are “channeled” in each chapter. The emotional and spiritual power of this book is obvious– and refreshing. Hopefully, each person who enjoys this lovely text will come away with “the heart of a dog”—and a new understanding of life’s ultimate and profound meanings.

BLURB: I Want to Have the Heart of a Dog

One woman’s journey that started with murders of passion in an Egyptian-like civilization two thousand years ago. After suffering betrayal, abuse and violent deaths through lifetimes of atonement, she comes to the present day realization that dogs are much more than furry companions. They are protectors, comforters, and teachers whose hearts contain the simple and miraculous knowledge of the Universe—if only we listen and learn.

EXCERPT: I Want to Have the Heart of a Dog

Fur against my face and the soft smell of a dog curled protectively around me existed before my first memories of this life.

Mom used to tell stories of me as a toddler, sleeping with my head pillowed on our Collie’s belly; of my brave furry protector forcing an uncle back into his car because I was outside without a parent. Never mind we lived out in the country where only relatives or nearby neighbors came to visit.

Tippy took his duties seriously, and executed them well. For ten years, he was a companion, a pillow, and a protector.

Under this seemingly idyllic existence, something dark was happening to me that my child-mind didn’t understand. My ignorance allowed me to form loving memories of my early years with Tippy.

As our beautiful boy neared his transition over the Rainbow Bridge, I caught a glimpse of something I hadn’t previously seen in my young life—a look of helpless grief on my stern, stoic father’s face. I didn’t completely understand it then, but I knew it was somehow momentous. Perhaps there was more to this man than he let us see.

Though I didn’t realize it at the time, Tippy was the beginning of my life-long love of dogs, and set the standard for all the furbabies who would be part of my journey.

~ Wisdom from Tippy ~

We will always be with you—your furry angels who you can love and trust unconditionally and feel safe with. Though you won’t put this together until well into this lifetime, Collies will carry a special message for you, as do I. You will feel drawn to them, and they will appear at critical times to guide and support you.

But don’t overlook the other furries who appear in your life, for they also bring messages—to hope, to play, to love, and to look for the joy in this lifetime. For it is there, sometimes buried and forgotten in the angst of your self-punishment, but it is there. Good-bye for now, my beloved. I will always be available to you and now entrust you to another set of paws to share your journey.
