Sit， Stay， Heal: What Dogs Can Teach Us About Living Well by Renee Alsarraf made me cry and laugh。 I recently lost my 10-year-old shepherd unexpectedly， and this book was sometimes hard to read， but it also brought me comfort in knowing I did well for my doggo。 Especially encouraging was the first story of Daisy and the owner asking the vet/author if she did anything wrong to cause her dog to get sick。 It was comforting to know that I did everything for my dog and that she lived a very good life Sit， Stay， Heal: What Dogs Can Teach Us About Living Well by Renee Alsarraf made me cry and laugh。 I recently lost my 10-year-old shepherd unexpectedly， and this book was sometimes hard to read， but it also brought me comfort in knowing I did well for my doggo。 Especially encouraging was the first story of Daisy and the owner asking the vet/author if she did anything wrong to cause her dog to get sick。 It was comforting to know that I did everything for my dog and that she lived a very good life。 I so identify with the author's comment that dogs give us unconditional love when the world feels harsh and how we rely on and even lean on our pets。 We can learn a lot from our pets who truly live in the present and the deep bonds they create with us。The stories were very heartfelt， and the story of the author battling her own cancer was poignant。A very good book and a must-have for anyone who owns a pet。 A 5 out of 5 stars。#SitStayHeal #NetGalley @HarperOneBooks 。。。more

A terrific autobiography about a oncology veterinarian who not only takes care of dogs with the big C， but also describes her journey with the big C and how her struggles are different then the dogs she treats。 Even though the struggles are different， the stories of the dogs she takes care of are wonderful to read because even though the dogs come in sick， Dr。 Alsarraf treats them to the point that they can go home and be happy with their people as long as they are able。 I couldn't put this book A terrific autobiography about a oncology veterinarian who not only takes care of dogs with the big C， but also describes her journey with the big C and how her struggles are different then the dogs she treats。 Even though the struggles are different， the stories of the dogs she takes care of are wonderful to read because even though the dogs come in sick， Dr。 Alsarraf treats them to the point that they can go home and be happy with their people as long as they are able。 I couldn't put this book down。 I found the stories very touching and I felt for the owners who loved their pets so much that they were willing to do whatever it took to save them and also had to be brave to let them go。 There is one story that stood out about a client who would take no for an answer， and another that involves a rescue dog that was put into remission and was able to save more lives。 Terrific stories。I know this story maybe a little sad but this book is worth reading， it will make you happy to know that there is somewhere to go when a dog is ill and there are people who are willing do the job to help。 I also learned that dogs don't have the same side effects from the treatment that people do and that makes me feel that the treatments are worth trying。 I want to thank HarperOne and NetGalley for this wonderful， heartwarming autobiography about the big C。 。。。more

Reviewed for NetGalley:Sit， Stay， Heal is a hopeful and bittersweet memoir of a oncology veterinarian sharing her story of the powerful relationships her patients have with their owners， all while undergoing her diagnosis of cancer。Having had a dog with cancer in the past， and having seen a oncology veterinarian， the author really did present a positive message that I had not considered before。
