      A hilarious and heartfelt chronicle of a woman's journey to discover love, health, and happiness through her unexpected teachers: her dogs. At thirty, single, and working part-time in an insurance company, Julie Klam wondered if she would ever find lasting love. Then she met Otto, her first Boston terrier, and fell head over heels. This story reveals how she learned life's essential lessons from her canine companions. Otto taught her what it felt like to find "the one," and she began to share her home, heart, and resources, gaining an authentic friendship in the process. As her family grew to include a husband, a daughter, and several Boston terriers, Julie faced the challenges of pet care—late-night walks, vet visits, and behavior issues. Yet, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that her dogs had more wisdom to share than she ever imagined. Caring for them transformed her into a better person and opened her heart completely. This narrative is both riotously funny and unexpectedly poignant, exploring the hidden joys and revelations that come from allowing any dog—be it a mutt, beagle, terrier, or bulldog—to charge into your life.
