Sooner or later, anyone who has ever owned a dog has looked into those big brown eyes and wondered what he or she was thinking.

Many of us have also wondered about the meaning of life.

Strange Things People Have Said to Me - Greyhound Story

What is its purpose? If a human life has a goal, then does a dog's life have a purpose?

See a Problem?

Dogs serve many functions in the lives of their humans from companion, security guard, baby sitter, to guide and herder. This is the species that is referred to as man's best friend and also, when someone is working very hard, they are said to be working like a dog. So in our lives they serve many purposes. Perhaps the biggest question in life is, why are we here? Animal lovers may also ask, why are dogs here? According to author Cameron, it is reincarnation.

The main character in this book starts out as Toby a hard luck dog that winds up being rescued by an unlicensed rescuer, but that ends badly. Our hero returns in his next incarnation in a puppy mill and suffers again, this time at the hands of a thoughtless owner. Through each incarnation the main character suffers and grows through the experience just as those who believe in the many lives philosophy think each human grows from multiple lives.

For a dog lover, it may be a little difficult to get through some of the sadder parts of the book and rest assured there are quite a few of them. You will want to have a good hankie or two at hand. But in the end, the answer and meaning of all that suffering and pain is revealed. There are two cautions that should go along with this review, the first is that if you are deeply affected by the suffering of animals, this book may have a profound effect. Secondly, if your religious or spiritual beliefs find the idea of reincarnation as offensive or disturbing, you may also have a problem with this book.

There are quite a few books that try to tell a story from a dog's point of view. Bruce Cameron got it right with his first book. This reader is sure that people who love a good dog story and animal fiction will want to see more from this author. A good four star book. It's a story about an unwanted child and her animal friends finding a forever home.

When Meg dies in a car accident, but is then revived, she is changed forever. She now has the ability to talk to and understand animals. Posted by Lacey at 2: As I was walking in Stetson, Maine today, I found a baby snapping turtle. The little guy or girl was only about an inch in diameter.

Lacey Blue and the Rejects: Looking for a Home

It is October 4th, late for turtles to be born, in my opinion, but I'm no turtle expert. I've seen them hatch in September before, but never October. As I surveyed the weeds at my feet, I found three more of the little ones struggling through the weeds and along the road toward the pond just down the hill. In Maine, female turtles sometimes lay their eggs in the sand alongside roads that are close to brooks, rivers, and ponds.

Then, when the offspring hatch, they make a dash, if you can call what those little ones were doing a dash, toward the water and safety.

Unfortunately, they often wind up in the road and get killed by traffic. All four of the turtles I found were either on the tar or making their way toward it. If they don't get killed by an automobile they often get eaten by a predator. While I have no business coming between a predator and its meal, I do think I should help baby turtles across the road or along it to the water.

I carried my four charges to the water's edge and let them go. They scurried into the water. They will soon burrow down in the mud for a long winter's nap and emerge next spring. Some people do not like turtles and blame them for eating baby ducks and fish. While it is true that baby ducks and fish may be on their menu, who are we to tell turtles what to eat?
