I did not want to read a book about an abusive relationship but I did want to read about the dog. Unfortunately, the dog is more background to the author's story, which is well-written. As the author's self-esteem grows, the writing subtlety changes to to reflect the author's growing confidence and determination to leave her abusive partner (they were not even married). Disappointed that there was not more dog in the story, but a worthwhile memoir to read if you want some understanding of the thinking process that keeps an abused person in a relationship that is not healthy.
