“Relish the day. If you’re not in awe, you’re just not paying attention.” She hadn’t even been in the crowded pound a week, but she’d already developed a nickname, “Knucklehead.” As a puppy she destroyed property and precious clothes; as an adult she injured her owner, ruined romances… and changed the world-views of those around her. Have you ever watched an animal and wondered how it thinks, how it sees the world, how it views you? And have you ever wondered what wisdom you might learn if you could see things as that animal does? This unique book is many things: an amusing and moving memoir about a memorable dog, a poetic ode to a human-animal connection, and a serious philosophical, psychological, and spiritual inquiry into the lessons a man gleaned from the simple-minded brilliance of a teacher, a lover, a liver of life to the fullest… a Knucklehead. There has never before been a book like "The Teachings of Shirelle." Take a walk with this pooch, and you might never look at life, love, or yourself the same again.

Review "Douglas Green's book is a warm, engaging, deceptively simple tribute to the innate wisdom of his beloved dog. May we all learn from such loveable teachers." --Dennis Palumbo - screenwriter My Favorite Year, author of the Daniel Rinaldi mysteries, and licensed psychotherapistA beautiful, heartfelt, and entertaining book, that gives the reader a deep understanding of the profound relationship between the human psyche and the souls of other animals with whom we share this planet. --Linda Buzzell, co-editor Ecotherapy - Healing with Nature in Mind, author How to Make it in HollywoodWith humor and candor, Douglas Green delightfully explores the extraordinary relationship between a man and a goofy, irrepressible, and unexpected best friend. His keen observations of Shirelle s remarkable, high-energy life and the blessings of meeting up with this amazing creature make this account both inspiring and, at times, laugh out loud funny. --Jane Hammerslough, author Dematerializing: Taming the Power of Possessions, The Search for Vile Things, The Home Alone Survival Guide

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Wonderful Book! By Melissa Martin's Reading List Blog This book just broke my heart. It's such a touching and funny story of a man and the dog he rescued as a pup right before she was doomed to be put down.The story of their lives together is filled with fun, anger, love and many.. what the.. moments.Shirelle was so funny and sweet and crazy all in one. She learns like they all do how to do things the right way and how to do what she wants. She was a great companion in therapy just by knowing what each patient needed from her. She was another brilliant soul and did nothing but give undying love to her person just like all wonderful doggers do.This story is also sad, it just about killed me what she had to go through. It brought back sad, crying memories of what my own dog and son Dakota went through, but not as long and not as bad as Shirelle. Shirelle was a fighter until she couldn't fight any more.I love how the author wrote out the different things he learned through Shirelle, to use in the real world.God bless all of the wonderful dogs and any other animals in all of our lives that love us unconditionally. We are all given a privilege if we are allowed to love all of these wonderful animals.*I would like to thank NETGALLEY and SMITH PUBLICITY for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review.*MY FULL REVIEWS:[...][...]

Blotzer If you love dogs, this book will deliver a story that will have you shake your head in recognition, laugh at the relationship between the two, and cry as they go through their lows. Shirelle is a dog that has problems from the beginning. She is slated to be destroyed when the author finds her and from there begins a relationship that will impact not only Mr. Green's life, but also many others around him.I was blown away at how fun and wonderful this story was. Shirelle reminded me of a dog I once has so it was even more personal to me than I would have once thought. I cried and laughed at the stories and the lessons she taught him. I received the ebook first and then was blessed by the publisher with the physical copy. If you are incline to purchase this book, buy the physical copy. The colored photos inside will make the book come alive even more and really make you connect with the characters.Bring a tissue and wag a tail, this is a book that will definitely make you think.

By Ray Morton The stated purpose of this book is to impart the life lessons that the author Douglas Green learned from his beloved pet dog Shirelle. The book accomplishes this task wonderfully well -- the lessons this "divine knucklehead" of a dog imparts to Green and therefore to all of us are sometimes right on the nose, sometimes wonderfully sly and oblique, and always full of the joy and wonder of being alive, being present, and being pure. I loved the book for these lessons, but I also loved it because it is a wonderful love letter from one living being to another and in writing it the author reveals the depths of his love, warmth, and capacity for caring and engagement and transformation. I came away from this book learning as much from Doug as I did from Shirelle and that made me treasure this sweet, sometimes sad, always touching book even more.
