Summary
’Are you ready, Max? If anyone’s going to help me do this, it’s you.’
The heart-warming tale of a life-saving friendship.
In 2006, a traumatic car accident changed Kerry Irving’s life forever.
Suffering from severe neck and back injuries, Kerry was unemployed and housebound, struggling with depression and even thoughts of suicide. He went from cycling over 600 miles a month to becoming a prisoner in his own home.
With hope all but lost, Kerry’s wife encouraged him to go on a short walk to the local shop. In the face of unbearable pain and overwhelming panic, he persevered and along the way, met an adorable yard dog named Max. As the Spaniel peered up through the railings, Kerry found comfort and encouragement in his soulful brown eyes. This chance encounter marked a turning point in both their lives.
In Max, Kerry found comfort and motivation and in Kerry, Max found someone to care for him. This is their remarkable, inspiring story.

Heartwarming
I already read this book a year or two ago but, as a fellow Spaniel lover, wanted to listen to it on Audible too.
It’s extremely well narrated and the author is living his best life after a bad road accident that left him in a lot of pain.
You can tell the author is a really nice guy, and I’m glad he recovered from his trauma. It’s a really lovely story.

Lovely steady voice
Loved this measured account of the deep downs and final ups of this man’s life. The story is engrossing without needing to resort to the usual engineered plot twists and breathy, dramatic, grabbing narrator. Heartwarming.

Heart warming and a must for dog lovers.
Fantastically touching book. An inspirational tale of recovery from mental illness and the magical, restorative powers gained from dog ownership.

Heartfelt and poignant
What a lovely factual story…….did wonder at times when Max would appear but the lead up to his appearance was very logical. Difficult to put the book down as we can all learn a lot about ourselves from the close relationship between Max and Kerry and indeed Angela. Most enjoyable, tears and laughter throughout. So impressed with this story I am on my second read of this book.
