ReviewsPraise for Going Home "[He's] probably my favorite dog writer, although I will warn people that he's such a lovely writer that he ... tends to make me cry. I have at least twice ended up in tears on an airplane reading a Jon Katz book."--Julie Rovner, NPR "For the country's 77.5 million dog owners and 93.6 million cat owners, this account of the essential grieving process should be extremely helpful." --Library Journal "(R)eaders will find this book refreshing in its honest depiction of grief over pet loss." --Kirkus "(A) must-read while your pet is vibrant and healthy...the perfect guidebook for both preparing for and coping with that eventual loss most painfully approach with trepidation."- -Seattle Kennel Club Praise for Jon Katz "With wisdom and grace, Katz unlocks the canine soul and the complicated wonders that lie within and offers powerful insights to anyone who has ever struggled with, and loved, a troubled animal."--John Grogan, author of Marley & Me "Katz's world--of animals and humans and their combined generosity of spirit--is a place you're glad you've been." --The Boston Globe "From Toto to Marley, our canine friends are a sure bet in the literary biz. But no one seems to speak their language like Jon Katz." --San Antonio Express-News "Katz proves himself a Thoreau for modern times as he ponders the relationships between man and animals, humanity and nature." --Fort Worth Star-Telegram "I toss a lifetime award of three liver snaps to Jon Katz."--Maureen Corrigan, National Public Radio's Fresh Air, Praise for Going Home "For the country's 77.5 million dog owners and 93.6 million cat owners, this account of the essential grieving process should be extremely helpful." --Library Journal "(R)eaders will find this book refreshing in its honest depiction of grief over pet loss." --Kirkus "(A) must-read while your pet is vibrant and healthy...the perfect guidebook for both preparing for and coping with that eventual loss most painfully approach with trepidation."- -Seattle Kennel Club Praise for Jon Katz "With wisdom and grace, Katz unlocks the canine soul and the complicated wonders that lie within and offers powerful insights to anyone who has ever struggled with, and loved, a troubled animal."-John Grogan, author of Marley & Me "Katz's world-of animals and humans and their combined generosity of spirit-is a place you're glad you've been." -The Boston Globe "From Toto to Marley, our canine friends are a sure bet in the literary biz.

Highly recommend this compassionate book to ease in pets’ aging and death
I have read this book several times and gifted copies to friends and family as their pets approach death or have died. Compelling content about how we as humans can navigate the process and make sound decisions to save our pets from suffering. Jon Katz writes with lots of heart that helped soothe me as my pets aged and passed on. Highly recommend.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
