Dinah, a golden retriever, is Tom Sullivan’s guide dog whose time to retire has come. Down and out and at wit’s end, he turns to his friend and fellow animal lover, Betty White for help in finding a new home. Surprising them all, Betty volunteers to have Dinah join her household. This heartwarming story described Dinah’s days as a Seeing Eye dog and her days of retirement. ( ) Read by the authors, this audiobook is well-produced, entertaining, and informative. It tells the story of Dinah (the leading lady, not Betty White), and amazing guide dog who influences the lives of first Tom Sullivan and then White. We get a glimpse into the day-to-day life of a blind person, as well as the training and accomplishments of guide dogs. A heartwarming story, this is a great foil for much of the angst I've been reading. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Hollywood icon Betty White and actor Tom Sullivan present the story of a guide dog named Dinah and the extraordinary difference she made in every life she touched. Beloved actress Betty White is a bona fide television pioneer, but throughout her life, her heart has always been with the animals. One of the most enriching episodes in her career as an animal-rights advocate arrived with actor Tom Sullivan. Blind since birth, Tom was one of Betty's closest friends and professional partners. Their dearest collaboration was a mutual devotion to a golden retriever named Dinah. This first-class guide dog was more than Tom's best friend, she was a source of unqualified loyalty and love. Most important, she enabled Tom to be truly independent for the first time in his life. However as Dinah got older, as her faculties weakened and her confidence faltered, Tom had little choice but to get a new dog. The effect of losing her purpose was devastating to the once-gallant Dinah. Then Betty gladly stepped in to give this great Lady a new lease on life. What would transpire is a heartening and inspiring story of a dog who made a difference and who, in Betty White's words, "helped Tom grow up as she has helped me grow older." It is for all animal lovers, for all Betty White lovers, and everyone who can relate to the unconditional devotion of dogs and the people who love them.
