“His eyes are talking to me” - with these words, Zen entered the lives of his two humans in Singapore in 2016. A few months later, the author, his wife, and Zen, their one-year-old Labrador Retriever, relocated to Stanford University. In the summer of 2017, the trio set off on a two-month, 10,000-mile road trip across America covering 29 states.
‘Angel Wings - Paw-prints on Three Continents’ is a humorous narration of Zen’s adventures and misadventures. Told from his unique perspective and inimitable style - ardent, conversational, and touching, the meaningful connection he enjoys with his humans surfaces time and again.
He encounters a security robot in Mountain View with hilarious consequences, bonds with a burly Harley biker in Custer City, and meets a grizzly bear in Glacier National Park. It is a story of making new friends and learning new skills while on a journey to understand America’s culture and history. An easy, engaging read about how a dog-loving nation embraced a goofy pup and his human companions.
