Gaining a Leash on Life: Moving Beyond Surviving to Thriving with Lessons from Bud encapsulates the profound lessons learned through observation and interaction with the author's canine companion, Bud.

The book is meticulously organized into five thematic areas: awareness, acceptance, authenticity, celebration, and gratitude. It provides insights--referenced as "dogmas"--meant to stimulate contemplative thinking and inspire personal transformation. Each dogma is complemented by thought-provoking quotes, personal reflections, and actionable recommendations known as "Bud-isms," which encourage readers to embrace life enhancing perspectives and practices.

Gaining a Leash on Life is an ideal guide for those seeking to enrich their daily lives and engage in that which helps them move from surviving to thriving. Given its foundation in positive psychology theory and research, the book also serves as an ideal supplement to courses on psychology, veterinary studies, and human-animal relationships.
