The Sense Of Smell In All Dogs

I Had A Big Akita, Yoshi, Who Was Fabulous. I Loved Him. We Lost Him When He Was 12, And I've Never Been Able To Replace Him. Normally, Most People Lose A Pet And Get Another And Keep Going On. But It Just Felt Wrong To Me; It Felt Disloyal.

My Fiction Is Almost Always Inspired By A Character's Need Or Desire To Rise Above Him- Or Herself. No One Is Perfect And Some Of Us Have Much Adversity In Our Lives; It Is Those People Who Struggle To Rise Above Their Nature Or Background That I Find The Most Interesting And Heroic.

At Lackland Air Force Base, They Make An Effort To Retrain Military Dogs That Suffer From Ptsd. It's A Lengthy, Long Process. The Treatment Is Much The Same As It Would Be For People, But It's A Difficult Road Back.

The Sense Of Smell In All Dogs Is Their Primary Doorway To The World Around Them.

When Dogs Fulfill Their Roles They Are Ecstatically Happy.
