Description

Considering the relatively short life expectancies of dogs, most people assume that their dogs will pass away before themselves. But what if that doesn’t happen? What if you pass away before your dog?
Many people do have a plan as to who should take on the responsibility of caring for their dog after their death. However, even under those circumstances, that may lead to a dog being placed in a home where the new family is totally unfamiliar with the dog. That may create a difficult situation for both the new family and the dog.
All About Amber is an open letter to the people who would take care of Amber in the event Amber’s parents pass away before Amber. The book is written so that in the event Amber’s family passes before Amber, Amber’s needs and desires would be fully understood by her new family.
The book is a detailed examination of every aspect of Amber’s life. It is written as a model for others so that everyone has a plan for their dog in the event they pass away first and that the new family is not unfamiliar with the personality and needs of their new family member.
Besides providing a history of Amber’s life and stories about Amber, the book examines Amber’s personality as well as her likes and dislikes. It discusses basic issues such as Amber’s health issues, hygiene, food, equipment, and toys. The book looks at how Amber reacts with people and other dogs, and outlines the activities in which Amber likes to engage. The aim of the book is that if Amber were to go to her new family, her new family would be familiar with Amber, easing the transition for both Amber and her new family.
While the topic of this book is serious and provides some common-sense advice on dog ownership in general, the authors attempt to write this book in a light-hearted style. While dog ownership entails some responsibility and those responsibilities are outlined in this book, the book is aimed at conveying the joy and fun Amber has brought to her family.
Charlene Densen is an administrator of a not-for-profit corporation serving people with disabilities, and Robert Schonfeld is an attorney representing not-for-profit corporations serving people with disabilities. Amber is a large seven-year old spayed Pomeranian. She is cute, beautiful and smart, loves people, and loves to explore and watch activity. They live in a building on the ocean in Long Beach, New York where Amber is often referred to as the “Mayor” of the building.
Both Charlene and Bob have had dogs prior to Amber, but none of their previous dogs was anything like Amber. Charlene and Bob’s favorite hobby is observing Amber and trying to understand the things she does.
Charlene, Bob and Amber are constantly looking for dog events sponsored by charitable organizations. They are especially involved in the activities of the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, which operates a no-kill shelter in Wainscott, New York. Ten per cent of the profits of this book will go to the Animal Rescue Fund.
