I know Sparks was hinting that The dog wa the spirit of the heroines late husband watching over her, but that wasnt really necessary. All us dog people know that dogs are great judges of character. If your dog doesnt trust someone,, you shouldnt either. If Julie had listened to Singer from the beginning, she would have saved herself and her friends a lot of grief. Too bad that this author tends to kill off some of his best characters just to make his books tearjerkers. But, yeah, he suckered me in again.
