The Visit

"Discover the Healing Power of a Wagging Tail"

What if a dog's compassion, approachably calm, confident way combined with his sheer strength and stature could assist a precious 4-year-old to take her first steps in her braces? What if a dog's soulful gaze could touch grieving hearts in ways no words ever could? And what if a dog's gentle spirit and humorous antics would speak volumes to the motorcycle accident victim, who feared acceptance of his greatly maimed appearance? In The Visit: Tails of the PAWS-itive Healer, Janet Myers takes readers on an unforgettable journey of love, resilience, and healing through the eyes of her extraordinary therapy dogs, Maggie and Bentley.

Janet, a seasoned nurse and lifelong dog enthusiast, never imagined that her deep connection with her canine companions would spark a movement that redefined care for patients, families, and entire communities. Together, this dynamic trio ventured into hospitals, schools, and homes, spreading joy, comfort, and often, miraculous healing. From heartwarming moments of laughter to profound instances of soul-stirring connection, Maggie and Bentley proved time and again the incredible depth of what dogs can offer to the human spirit.
