{"product_id":"dog-year-book-jon-katz-9780812966909","title":"A Dog Year","description":"\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eChange loves me, defines and stalks me like a laser-guided smart bomb. It comes at me in all forms, suddenly and with enormous impact, from making shifts in work to having and raising a kid to buying a cabin on a distant mountaintop. Sometimes, change comes on four legs. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn his popular and widely praised \u003ci\u003eRunning to the Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e, Jon Katz wrote of the strength and support he found in the massive forms of his two yellow Labrador retrievers, Julius and Stanley. When the Labs were six and seven, a breeder who'd read his book contacted Katz to say she had a dog that was meant for him--a two-year-old border collie named Devon, well bred but high-strung and homeless. Katz already had a full canine complement, but instinct overruled reason, and soon thereafter he brought Devon home. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Dog Year: Twelve Months, Four Dogs, and Me\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of how Devon and Jon--and Julius and Stanley--came to terms with each other. It shows how a man discovered a lot about himself through one dog (and then another) whose temperament seemed as different from his own as day is from night. It is a story of trust and understanding, of life and death, of continuity and change. It is by turns insightful, hilarious, and deeply moving.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49564661678353,"sku":"GOR013484500","price":3.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49598553293073,"sku":"GOR001629681","price":20.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50008266309905,"sku":"CIN0812966902G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50329449857297,"sku":"CIN0812966902VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50362820264209,"sku":"CIN0812966902A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50514960089361,"sku":"GOR002349946","price":7.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51269081956625,"sku":"NIN9780812966909","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0812966902.jpg?v=1751456160","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/dog-year-book-jon-katz-9780812966909","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
