Life After Lottie: Finding peace at The Soi Dog Foundation

This poignant book promises laughter, hope and joy. It is one woman's tale of love, loyalty, grief and giving as she battled loneliness and depression following the unexpected loss of her beloved labrador, Lottie.

Determined to find a purpose, Rachael, Lottie's doggy mum, traveled alone to the heart of Southeast Asia. At The Soi Dog Foundation, with the help of new friends in the international family of volunteers, she was able to pour her love into the dogs at the sanctuary in Phuket. She left England in search of peace, she found so much more. This story will resonate with any dog lover whose four legged friend is their best friend.

This book not only outlines the history and remarkable work of The Soi Dog Foundation but shares the fun and new friendships to be gained in its volunteer programme. It is an inspiration to other women that as we approach our golden years, we have the determination to travel solo, to set off on new adventures and still have much to give and to share.

Life After Lottie is brimming with colour photographs and makes an easy read and perfect gift for dog lovers worldwide.
