The Life of One Gentle, Great Pyrenees Giant: The Story of Moses Published by Outskirts Press
Author, dog owner and perpetual dog lover Jennifer Ross celebrates the individuality, intelligence and unconditional love of man’s best friend with the story of these five unforgettable canine friends and, in particular, the tale of that most distinguished Great Pyrenees gentleman, Moses.
Fort Worth, TX, February 04, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Author Jennifer Ross today announced the release of The Story of Moses, published by Outskirts Press. Ross’ genuine and poignant work tells the story of Moses, a splendid Great Pyrenees, who arrives an orphan from the wilds of the Texas hill country, earns the love of his new two and four legged family, but succumbs far too soon from a devastating battle with cancer.
The Story of Moses is not only a tale of that final sorrow, however. Ross tells of the joy and the hope that Moses brought to her family and that she hopes they brought to Moses. It is the story of survival -- despite a great loss -- and of the immortality Moses and his forever family will share because of their love and devotion to each other.
It is also the story of four other remarkable canine characters who prepared the way for Moses or shared their home with him. First came Cleopatra, the matriarch of matriarchs, whose grace and intelligence immediately won the author’s heart. Then came Odin, a loyal, protective, large mountain of a dog who grieved deeply and hauntingly when his love, Cleopatra, passed on. Finally, there are Moses’ three siblings, Bess, Samantha and Pax, who provided the next generation of antics and challenges for their gentle friend, Moses.
The Story of Moses is a story about real people, real dogs, real sorrow and real spirit, but Ross’ tale also dispels the myth that shelter and rescue dogs are undesirable.
Animal lovers, of course, will delight in this authentic and touching tale of five unforgettable dogs, but readers who have not yet had the joy of pet ownership may be moved to “adopt” and revel in the soothing balm of such trusted companionship.
The Story of Moses is available on-line in paperback through Amazon and Barnes and Noble and at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore for a maximum trade discount in quantities of ten or more.
