Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS IS A true story that needs to be told and handed down to future generations of animal lovers and to people today who are thinking of bringing a four legged friend into their family. Looking back on all the enjoyment and pleasure that Bud brought to us and others who crossed his path, I find it hard to believe now that I initially rejected the idea of bringing another dog into our home to look after, much less an old stray one. My wife Nikki somehow knew that this old dog was special but at first I didnt care when he ran away. I felt he was an ingrate when the call of the chase was greater than our welcoming home. After a time of being patient with him and having him neutered, he became a loyal and obedient friend. There are a lot of Buds out there of all sizes that need the love and companionship of a caring mastereven if its only for a short time.
