We explore Moose's habits, routines, and experiences which become windows through which the reader can see clearly the character of this remarkable companion and the quality of the relationship between us that continued to build throughout his life. Even Moose's death became a dramatic expression of his affection for me, a description of which inspires beyond tears. Moreover, it compelled me to reflect more seriously upon the issue of whether our pet companions share in the immortality that we human beings desire and expect and how we think and talk about that in ways that make sense and give meaning to our lives.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt is my hope that readers of \u003cem\u003eMy Love Affair with a Dog Named Moose \u003c\/em\u003ewill be encouraged in developing a more meaningful relationship with their pet animals in such a way that they are better able to work through the grief process that follows their loss, even to the point of experiencing the therapeutic value of writing about the experience.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Love affairs are not always positive and life-giving but this story is one that meets both expectations!\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James D.
