"When Owen met new people and felt worried, he would stand too close and lick too long. Sometimes he climbed onto people's laps, forgetting that he weighed seventy-five pounds."

Owen has a job to do. As a new therapy dog, he's supposed to help kids when they feel sad or mad, scared or worried, lost or lonely. But what should he do when he feels sad or mad, scared or worried, lost or lonely?

Nothing seems to help until one day Owen visits a children's hospital and meets a very special boy who might be able to help Owen with his big feelings . . .

With inspiration from a much-loved fellow therapist--who happens to be a dog--veteran counselor David Thomas shares an engaging adventure of a furry friend who finds the courage to do hard and scary things.
