Healing is a common theme in human existence. Healing is rarely, if ever, accomplished in isolation. In healing, there is a reaching out, a connection, a coming to terms.
The inspirational stories in Afternoons with Puppy are all about recovery. Dr. Fine’s journey with his animals has enriched the lives of many patients. The subtle interactions, the soft touches, the silent signals of Fine’s unique therapeutic process have led to awe-inspiring successes.
Afternoons with Puppy is a compelling story of discovery – the discovery of a brilliant process of learning and relearning from therapist to patient to animal. Within the pages, Fine and Eisen reveal how more than twenty years of continual engagement has uncovered new paths, connected hope and healing, and renewed meaning and purpose. Afternoons with Puppy returns again and again to the fundamental and deeper elements of life by portraying how our bond with animals centers our being. These interactions strip away the unimportant and provide the ground on which healing can take place. Healing is compelled by certainty. Afternoons with Puppy is an emotional journey that will continue long after the last page.
