    I do feel that the seller responded immediately concerning the problem and issuing a credit. The delay in delivery was not her fault, USPS gave me 3 different delivery dates before I finally received the package. The outer box was badly crushed by USPS. I think that they tossed it around and possibly stacked much heavier package on it causing the item to break.

    I can't say enough good things about the seller - saucers are perfect, as described - packaging was so good I think the box could've survived a fall from a 10 story building - the pricing was absolutely fair. I would buy from her again. She shipped the package in a very timely manner.

    comforting and easy read for children.

    My granddaughter is five years old and after 16 years she lost her little Yorky Pooh. It is very sad for the whole family but I believe this book comforted her a little. I’m sure she enjoyed it and her mom and dad were pleased that I sent it to her. Thank you very much

    Dog Heaven

    This book was recommended by an APHE member and I just lost my baby so I purchased it. I was shocked to read God feeding ham sandwiches to the dogs. Don't all animals become living beings in heaven or is God slaughtering pigs? I know there are kids bright enough to question this as I teach gifted. This us the reason for my okay ranking.

  • Out of Print, but NOT out of Sincerity

    I found this book years ago in the kids section of a bookstore. Basically it’s a kids-eye view of what heaven is for a dog, but I found it so touching that it is my #1 gift for friends who are grieving the loss of their dog. This particular book, purchased on EBay, was advertised as used, but it was like new, and much cheaper than I could find anywhere else. It was a great purchase.

  • Great book for difficult period

    Bought this book for our daughter-in-law who lost her 14 year old companion suddenly. She fell in love with it, crying yet healing. She said it brought her comfort during a most difficult time. Highly recommend it.
