"This feel-good, easy-to-read book...is sure to inspire many readers" as Eric meets Peety and their journey together saves both of their lives and creates a lifelong bond (Booklist).
Eric was 150 pounds overweight, depressed, and sick. After a lifetime of failed diet attempts, and the onset of type 2 diabetes due to his weight, Eric went to a new doctor, who surprisingly prescribed a shelter dog. And that's when Eric met Peety: an overweight, middle-aged, and forgotten dog who, like Eric, had seen better days. The two adopted each other and began an incredible journey together, forming a bond of unconditional love that forever changed their lives. Over the next year, just by going on walks, playing together, and eating plant-based foods, Eric lost 150 pounds, and Peety lost 25. As a result, Eric reversed his diabetes, got off all medication, and became happy and healthy for the first time in his life-eventually reconnecting with and marrying his high school sweetheart.

Walking With Peety is for anyone who is ready to make a change in his or her life, and for everyone who knows the joy, love, and hope that dogs can bring. This is more than a tale of mutual rescue. This is an epic story of friendship and strength.

Peety has a place in my heart too as does Jake. This book will inspire you and hold you captive as you receive much enlightenment. Thank you Eric for you & Peety rescuing each other and sharing your journey.

very inspiring

I found this story so inspiring! As an animal lover, I expected the dog in the story to be my favorite part. That relationship was just a wonderful as anticipated. I was surprised and inspired by the way Eric's life was transformed by his adoption of a new lifestyle as well as his adoption of Peety. The way Eric and Peety inspired others and continue to be so, is what truly made this story 1 I would recommend.

Best book I've listened to in a long time

The author has a very easy to listen to voice, he's funny, he's real, and I quickly came to love him and Peety

Great story, great inspiration

This story of Eric and peety is so inspirational and familiar to me. 5 years ago I went vegan and with the help of my 2 dogs,parker and barrow, I am still doing great and weigh the same as when I was on the wrestling in high school. they are just shy of there 16th birthday and we still go on our 2-3 mile hike in the hills behind our house every day. in fact we haven't missed a hike since we started. it was really enjoyable to read about someone else's journey that was similar to my one. if you're sick of being unhealthy and overweight let this book be your inspiration to start your new life. I've been a chef for 40 years and I can vouch for the author, vegan food can be the most flavorful food you've ever eaten and you won't miss all those foods you think you can't live without. just check out the vegan chefs on YouTube, they're incredible and will inspire you down your new path.

What a Gift!

This is such a wonderful and story of healing, and on so many fronts! When spirits connect anything is possible.
