A Footprint on Your Heart is a Keepsake for Dog Lovers who Lost Their Best Friend.

It is one of the worst moments in our lives when we have to say the final goodbye to our beloved dog. Losing our best friend brings a time of pain, grief and emptiness in our lives and sometimes it seems life becomes unbearable.

My own pain was the reason why I wrote this little book. Writing and remembering about the good times I had with my best friend had a wonderful healing effect on me.

So I decided that maybe what's good for me works for others too.

I know you won't forget your companion no matter how many years passed by. So why not treasure the wonderful time you spent with your friend in a book that is just waiting to keep your memories.

A Footprint on Your Heart was created for dog lovers who lost their friend and want to create fond memories of the time with their companion.
It is combination of a photo album, a journal plus my short story of the dachshund girl Greta in one book.
It is a keepsake that becomes something personal, because YOU fill it with your emotions, your photos and memories.

It consists of three parts:

Part 1: Memories

In the first part of the book you'll find 10 lovely background illustrations for the photos of your four-legged companion like a doggy basket or a meadow of Forget-me-nots.

Part 2: It's All Yours

This is the diary part of the book.
The space for your emotions, your feelings and also the place to remember the wonderful time you spent with your dog.
Tiny tracks of pawprints and illustrations accompany you through the whole colored diary part. There are no lines in this part. So when you want a space for more pictures just go ahead and put them in! It is your diary and you decide if you write, draw or put pictures in it.

Part 3: Greta's And My Story

And finally I want to share the story of Greta, the little dachshund girl from Ohio, with you. Just that you can see: You are not alone! Many others like you and me go through this and I hope this comforts you a little.

Excerpt: "...If you like you can read Greta's and my story, maybe it is good for you to know that you are never alone with your heartache.
Many others, like me, share this with you. So when I was crying about my loss I sat at my desk lonely, tired and sad and I thought: What comes now?
I lost the only thing that counted for me, what is left? But it was like Greta spoke to me: Think of our good times, the fun we had together
and I began to remember and all the wonderful days with Greta came back to life again..."
