The Dog in the Hollow is a very well-written book about a pit bull named Goose who has a chance encounter with a man who may just need him as much as Goose needs a kind-hearted human. This book deals with a serious topic and isn't for the faint of heart. It is gritty, honest, and beautifully written.

If you love pit bulls and advocate for them, this book is a must read!

Somehow this didn't post when we first published it in July! First it was #Scandoval and now it's a #Grahamdal?? We don't usually talk reality TV here, but when the story about a dog belonging to James Kennedy and Raquel (Rachel) Leviss, reality TV stars from Vanderpump Rules, hit the news, we had to look into it. There are two sides to every story and we're trying to get to the bottom of this one.
What's most important is how Graham is doing and what caused his behavior issues. Have you had a dog act out in this way after a break-up or divorce? What about another drastic change in your dog's life? We'd love to hear about your experience in the comments and how you were able to help your dog cope.

Here's the news story we referenced from Entertainment Tonight:

And here's the rescue group where the article says Graham ended up:

We often get asked how we were able to get our dogs to the ages of 17.5 and 15 years old. While we can't be entirely sure, we've compiled a list of things we think help contributed to their long lives. Remember, we are not veterinarians so this is not to be used as medical advice, just things we think helped our dogs remain active and healthy well into their senior years.
