What if a dog’s love was so strong, it waited for goodbye?
Paw Prints on My Heart is a lyrical and deeply personal picture book inspired by the true story of a devoted dog who held on through her final days, waiting to see her person—her heart—one last time.
With a profound sense of love and loyalty, this tender story traces the quiet moments, shared memories, and unspoken bond between a family and their aging dog. When the time comes to say goodbye, it’s not the end—but the beginning of a love that lingers in every paw print left behind. A soulful, comforting read for families navigating loss, this book is a timeless tribute to the kind of love that never lets go.
