I fell in love with Trixie Koontz when I read "Bliss To You". This book (audio CD) is the story of how Dean Koontz and his wife Gerda acquire Trixie. She had been trained as a companion dog but because of a problem with her elbow she had to be dropped from the program.

Right from the beginning the Koontz's knew this was a special dog. Actually an amazing dog. I loved this story. I have the book as well as the CD and the pictures in the book are priceless. You will love this very unique dog and some of her antics.

The ending broke my heart but I was crying and smiling at the same time. I highly recommend this book to all who love animals more than people but realize that in all likelihood they will preceed us to The Rainbow Bridge.
