Stay: A Dog's View of Love, Grief, and Ordinary Days - Paperback

What if the wisest voice in the room wasn't human?

Stay is a tender, funny, and unexpectedly profound book about love, grief, and everyday survival, told through the eyes of Buster, an ageing, observant, slightly opinionated dog who takes his job of staying very seriously.

Through short, intimate chapters, Buster watches humans navigate loss, memory, change, and the strange rituals of ordinary days. He offers commentary on attachment, presence, ageing, sorrow, snacks, loyalty, sun puddles, difficult cats, and why being followed to the bathroom is a legitimate form of emotional support.

This is not a training manual.

It is not a self-help lecture.

It is a companion.

Blending warmth, humour, emotional honesty, and quiet philosophical insight, Stay sits beside the reader rather than instructing them, especially those living with grief, love that continues, and lives that did not turn out as planned.

For anyone who has loved deeply, lost someone important, or been rescued by a four-legged witness who refused to leave.

Come sit.

You're not doing this alone.
