The Man Who Learned to Talk to Dogs
Bill Schweitzer
- The
- Man
- Who
- Learrned
- to
- Talk
- to
- DogsEveryone
- loves
- dogs,
- and
- that
- love
- runs
- strong
- in
- our
- family,
- so
- I
- set
- out
- to
- write
- a
- story
- for
- them.
- I
- wanted
- to
- get
- inside
- the
- mind
- of
- a
- dog
- and
- imagine
- what
- it
- would
- say
- if
- it
- could
- talk.
- You
- may
- be
- expecting
- a
- Dr.
- Dolittle
- sort
- of
- tale,
- but
- somewhere
- along
- the
- way
- my
- story
- took
- a
- left
- turn,
- and
- the
- result
- is
- no
- Dr.
- Dolittle
- type
- of
- story.
- It's
- 4,867
- words,
- the
- story
- of
- how
- a
- dog
- can
- save
- a
- life
- (or
- two),
- just
- by
- being
- a
- dog,
- and
- teach
- us
- how
- to
- be
- better
- humans
- in
- the
- process.Bill
- Schweitzer
- is
- a
- well-seasoned
- individual
- who
- is
- a
- fledgling
- writer
- of
- fiction.
- He's
- written
- scores
- of
- business
- publications,
- one
- prize
- winning,
- a
- play
- (eons
- ago),
- and
- a
- self-published
- short
- story
- that
- imagined
- the
- horror
- of
- Donald
- Trump
- being
- reelected.
- He
- has
- a
- first
- novel
- and
- a
- few
- other
- short-stories
- underway
- as well.
