A Dog called Harry

Newspaper editor Jill Baker arrived home to find her husband George dead on the bedroom floor. Then - while still in shock - she was diagnosed with breast cancer and given odds on being alive in five years' time. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation followed during Jill's extraordinary year from hell. It took a huge toll. Some days Jill barely recognised herself. A doctor thought a dog might heal her so Jill took a chance. She needed something to make life worth living but could that really be a crazy, snoring, howling, digging, chewing, barking, orange pup like Harry? Harry and Jill are an unlikely duo. Jill is quiet, Harry is loud as hell. She meticulously plans the day while Harry says let's wing it. She sips pinot while Harry is an espresso martini guy. Turns out Harry and Jill were made to be together. Theirs is a beautiful friendship, an unbreakable bond. A Dog Called Harry is the moving story of a dog dubbed Dirty Harry who helped Jill love life again.
