Conversation with a Dog
A book that will ask you many questions, but will also help you find answers! It will challenge you to look around the world around you and...in yourself! The inspiring stories of the heroes of Conversation with a Dog, as well as those of over 50 exceptional dogs that life has met me with! Each of these stories evokes a sea of emotions and prompts us to look into the reality that we ourselves have created... Each of these stories is a life lesson! Given to us by beings so underestimated, but coming into our world and lives precisely to leave behind another of the great lessons! Will we see them? Will we learn them? Each of these stories paints a picture of a sick society, of its silence! It describes the image of the anonymous culprit, who is always and inevitably distant, without a face and identity!

Dear Mira, I allow myself to address you like this because after meeting you with the book I feel close to you! Very recently, during the Christmas holidays, a sweet little boy, impressed by my dog, gave me this book to read. I promised to give it back to him. I didn't know what to expect, and Kaloyancho didn't say anything either... I started reading... I read and the tears kept flowing from my eyes! The emotions changed quickly... the book and all these stories took my hand and led me along the path you walked! I smiled and cried... over and over again! I experienced every written line! The book grabbed my throat... I thought I wouldn't be able to read it... but I pulled myself together and did it! Thank you for the big heart you have! Thank you for all the hours you dedicated to writing this book! Thank you for being you!

Hello Mira! The book is wonderful! I read it in one breath... it filled me with so many different emotions. Exceptional stories, real... I cried, I experienced each story as my own! I will read the book at least once more! This book made me think about many things... I needed to turn to myself, to discover things within me that I didn't suspect existed deep down... Mira, thank you for this book! It is unique! I believe it will touch many people! I believe it will influence their thoughts, their actions, the way they raise their pets, their attitude towards all living beings... I believe that one day we will live in a better world!

There are stories that make you empathize with them because they are real. There are people who give meaning because despite everything they are ready to help and do not give up no matter how hard it is...You, Raleigh and all the angels on your path - you are wonderful! Thank you for teaching us to be good people! Mira, I hope more people read your book and think! With your deeds the world changes, because the world of someone in trouble changes!
