Canine Heaven

Gary Woodson

Sinossi

Canine Heaven is an endearing story of hope fulfilled in the lives of Quito and Ben, two canine friends for life. 
Canine Heaven is based on Gary Woodson’s real-life experiences with two of his family’s nine dogs. It is told from the dogs’ perspective and is engaging and sweet and resonates with young readers. Canine Heaven is designed to help children identify with the life and longing of every dog to unite with a canine-loving family where they may live out their life happy and healthy. In Canine Heaven, two dogs – Quito and Ben – search for a new home after having been abandoned, again. Recognizing the poverty and frailty of Ben, Quito sets out on his own to find a dog-loving family who will adopt the two of them.  
Through a series of trials and disappointments, Quito meets a man in a cowboy hat whom he hopes will offer him and Ben a permanent home. When the man informs Quito that he already has six dogs and could not adopt him, Quito’s hopes are dashed. Why couldn’t he and Ben be as lucky as the other six dogs? Or, would an unexpected guest change this cowboy’s mind the following morning? Themes of friendship, perseverance, compassion and sacrifice abound as Canine Heaven celebrates the experience of coming home.
