Loving Edie: How a Dog Afraid of Everything Taught Me to Be Brave Audiobook

From the author of The Honey Bus, Meredith May, comes a heartfelt memoir about raising a loveable but anxious golden retriever puppy named Edie, a wild and emotional journey of self-discovery and unconditional love, perfect for fans of Marley and Me and Dog Medicine.

When Meredith May’s beloved dog Stella passes away, she thinks she’ll never love another dog the same way again. Then she and her wife Jenn adopt Edie, a sweet golden retriever puppy with saucer brown eyes and buttery white fur. She wins their hearts immediately, but it isn’t long after Edie joins the family that the problems begin.

Edie is an unusually anxious dog. She cowers around most people and the slightest noise sends her into a frenzy. Edie’s fears become so intense that Meredith and Jenn can’t leave the house. Is this normal puppy behavior or something more? Meredith grows determined to fix Edie, but what will she do if Edie can’t be fixed?

In this poignant and heartfelt memoir, Meredith shares her wild journey with Edie, and the lessons about selflessness and unconditional love that she learns along the way. From treating Edie with CBD gummies to visiting a dog medium, Meredith shows just how far she is willing to go to save her dog. But maybe Edie is secretly the one doing the saving—if Meredith could only open her heart.
