When Jon Katz got a call from an animal control officer about Simon, a neglected donkey who had been found on a failing farm in upstate New York, he wasn't expecting to add another animal to his already full life. But when he made the trek out to meet him, he couldn't help falling in love with the skinny, mangy donkey who had already suffered so much, and he ended up taking him into his home. It was Simon who listened in the fields as Jon read to him and discussed philosophy.

Story
In 2007, a few years after purchasing Bedlam Farm in upstate New York, Jon Katz met Maria Wulf, a quiet, sensitive artist hoping to rekindle her creative spark. Jon, like her, was introspective yet restless, a writer struggling to find his purpose. He felt a connection with her immediately, but a formidable obstacle stood in the way: Maria' s dog, Frieda. A rottweiler-shepherd mix who had been abandoned by her previous owner in the Adirondacks, where she lived in the wild for several years, Frieda was ferociously protective and barely tamed.

From the very beginning, Orson was a misfit. Like all border collies, he needed to work.

So Katz pulled up stakes and moved to a farm in upstate New York. There, Orson improved dramatically - until the day he started nipping people. The nips soon turned to bites, forcing Katz to face an incredibly painful decision.

Communications from beloved pets are seen by thousands every day. Some messages are given in ways that require an acute awareness and more interpretation as well. From the heavens above, signs are given by deceased pets to connect with their families they left behind. Oftentimes, the gifts they share are unseen or are difficult to identify. Learning to speak the language of spirit requires practice, but once identified, the joy of hearing from your pet in spirit can bring great comfort.

Our pets are part of the family. For many they're as close as children; for some they may be our only children. And while most of us can expect that our children will outlive us, sadly, our pets almost never do. Losing a pet can be as difficult as losing any other family member; we grieve, we miss them, and, mostly, we want closure, to know that our furry, feathered, or scaled friends are okay, wherever they are. For years, animal communicator Sonya Fitzpatrick has helped pet owners cope with the loss of their beloved companions. Many of them ask the same questions: Is my pet happy?

Story
At loose ends with her daughter leaving home and her husband on the road, Sue Halpern decided to give herself and Pransky, her under-occupied Labradoodle, a new leash - er, lease - on life by getting the two of them certified as a therapy dog team. Smart, spirited, and instinctively compassionate, Pransky turned out to be not only a terrific therapist but an unerring moral compass. In the unlikely sounding arena of a public nursing home, she led her teammate into a series of encounters with the residents that revealed depths of warmth, humor, and insight Halpern hadn't expected.

Every one of us sooner or later walks through hell. The hell of being hurt, the hell of hurting another. The hell of cancer, the hell of a reluctant, thunking shovel full of earth upon the casket of someone we deeply loved, the hell of betrayal, the hell of betraying, the hell of divorce, the hell of a kid in trouble...the hell of knowing that this year, like any year, may be our last. We all walk through hell. The point is not to come out empty-handed.... There is real and profound power in the suffering we endure if we transform that suffering into a more authentic, meaningful life.

In 2007, a few years after purchasing Bedlam Farm in upstate New York, Jon Katz met Maria Wulf, a quiet, sensitive artist hoping to rekindle her creative spark. Jon, like her, was introspective yet restless, a writer struggling to find his purpose. He felt a connection with her immediately, but a formidable obstacle stood in the way: Maria' s dog, Frieda. A rottweiler-shepherd mix who had been abandoned by her previous owner in the Adirondacks, where she lived in the wild for several years, Frieda was ferociously protective and barely tamed.

From the very beginning, Orson was a misfit. Like all border collies, he needed to work. But since there weren't any sheep available for herding in the New Jersey suburbs, Orson instead tried to corral school buses, garbages trucks, and skateboarding kids. So Katz pulled up stakes and moved to a farm in upstate New York. There, Orson improved dramatically - until the day he started nipping people. The nips soon turned to bites, forcing Katz to face an incredibly painful decision.

Very helpful for dealing with grief
I listened to this the day after saying goodbye to my dog of 15 years. It helped me acknowledge my grief and begin to heal. I recommend it to anyone with a pet, whether losing them now or not. Someday they will go, and this book may help you prepare for that inevitable transition. I highly recommend this book and can’t say enough good things about it.

Comforting to a recent loss of best fur-friend.
What made the experience of listening to Going Home the most enjoyable?
Good story.
What does Tom Stechschulte bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Comforting to hear an actual voice.
What did you learn from Going Home that you would use in your daily life?
It's ok to think about having another pet without guilt.
Any additional comments?
Well written using the author's own experience from another book, in which I was very curious and cannot wait to start this new book I just purchased. My beloved dog meant so much top me for so many years. I find myself at lost and cast adrift as she was our anchor of our life. Who am I going to come home for a loving walk with the summer breeze now??

Some people may not agree with everything in this book, as far as the difference between farm animals and pets. I don't entirely agree with it. The author's perspective is written in a grounded and compassionate way however, and is healing to listen to.

I am so thankful to have found this book. We had to let go of our 5-year-old dobie and were so broken. We’d never lost a dog before and our emotions are all new to us. Really appreciate this book and the writer for opening his heart to us to help us understand and heal. Truly brought some peace to our hearts

Awesome book!
What made the experience of listening to Going Home the most enjoyable?
This book could not have come at a better time. We just lost our beloved dog Dakota. We were in so much pain and sorrow and Jon Katz helped us navigate this difficult time with love, compassion and truth for our family. He validated our feelings and understands the grieving process. I am buying several copies of this books so my vet can give them out to his animals owners as they say good bye to their loving dogs, cats and horses. Ron
What did you like best about this story?
The similarity with regards to pain, and the grieving process.
Which scene was your favorite?
The entire book. Not just one. We savored every word.
What insight do you think you’ll apply from Going Home?
It's not good bye but until we meet again.

I wish I read this before my 17 year old pup passed away. I read a couple other pet loss books prior to this one but this one was the most emotional and hit me harder than the other books. I enjoyed the narration and the author put things into perspective that I wouldn't have otherwise thought about.

Going Home
After a lifetime of animals in my life, I am proud to have been a parent to One dog and over 20 cats. Currently have 13 living with me now. This book has taught me that the greatest pleasure in my life has been and is living with my animals. As a single person, they are my life and now I realize I have always treated them with great respect, as well as in life, death and euthanasia. I still feel and hear them sometimes and it makes me smile. Thank you for writing this book and confirming what I have always known. Animals will always be part of me. And I have not been imagining any of it. Thank You
