Editorial Reviews: Product Description T homas Healy was a drunk, a fighter, sometimes a writer, often unemployed, no stranger to the police. His life was going nowhere but downhill. Then one day he bought a pup?a Doberman. He called him Martin. Gradually man and dog became unshakable allies, the closest of comrades, the best of friends. They took long walks together, they vacationed together, they even went to church together. Martin, in more ways than one, saved Thomas Healy?s life. Written with unadulterated candor and profound love, this soulful memoir gets at the heart of the intense bond between people and dogs.

Customer Reviews: Read 4 more reviews... Healing powers of animals August 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Thomas Healy is a hard drinking, hard fighting man - not much different from other hard drinkers, I suppose. On a whim, he buys a Doberman puppy, Martin. The responsibility of caring for Martin seems to awaken a sense of responsibility in Mr Healy. As Mr Healy takes care of Martin and Martin takes care of Mr Healy, the relationship blossoms into a best friend relationship. So what if one of the friends has 4 legs instead of two? This is mostly about Mr Healy's transformation to a drunken fighter to a more gentle soul but it is an amazing transformation. If you ever have doubts that animals can heal, you should definitely read this book. I recommend it highly and I'm not even a "dog person". This is not a dog story July 22, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful This book was recommended in the Best Friends Sanctuary publication. It was compared to "Marley & Me". I was disappointed that there were very few details about Martin, the dog. Martin was a crucial part of the story, yet we never really got to know Martin. I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for a good dog story. The story is more about the author's struggle with alcoholism and his relationships with women. It was just not what I was looking for. A Touching Story July 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful As an animal lover and dog owner, I was drawn to this book. As a mental health professional who regularly works with people struggling with substance abuse issues, the book also appealed to me from that aspect. I completed my Master's Thesis on Pet Therapy, so I already know the powerful benefits one could get from pets. This book confirmed it all for me. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. I laughed, I cried, I thouroughly enjoyed the book! Inspiring book you will never forget. July 10, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I am a big fan of autobiographies and Thomas tells his story like no other. Thomas shares his intimate feelings and how he overcame his downward descent with the help of a puppy. Anyone who has been down and out knows that sometimes you need something to grab as your life preserver, for Thomas it was his puppy Martin. Anyone who deals with alcoholism, wether in their own family or within themselves, will benefit from reading this story of triumph and overcoming the clutches of alcohol and how it effects us and everyone around us. An inspiring read you will not soon forget. Dogs, faith, and love March 31, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful I finished this book last night and was sorry to have it end. I had really enjoyed looking forward to picking up where I had left off the previous reading. This story was well written because it was from the heart. An honest look at oneself by a man who was redeemed and given a second chance by his love for a dog. His deepening faith over a long period of time, as a Roman Catholic, was beautifully depicted, as was his love for his mother and his wonderfully supportive sister, Mary. I would recommend this book for anyone who loves dogs; has an addiction; or wants to read an inspiring story of increased faith by a very beautiful author. Hope you keep writing more for us!
