My Dog, Moss by Alison Bellringer

Evocative, heartfelt, and tenderly told…

Bellringer captures the raw beauty of solitude, loyalty, and love in this moving tale. Set against the rugged backdrop of the rolling countryside, the story follows Jayden King, a hardworking farmer whose world changes after he finds a stray dog caught in a fence. A single act of compassion binds man and dog in lasting friendship. Together, they build a life of meaning and purpose. But a looming danger threatens to tear it all apart. 

Bellringer writes with a quiet grace that draws readers in. Rather than relying on flourish or high drama, she lets emotion rise naturally through simple, sincere moments. The dialogue feels real, the pacing unhurried, and the feelings genuine. Her empathy shines through—not only for her characters but also for the land they inhabit, the creatures that share it, and the small acts of care that make life meaningful. At its heart, this is a story about faith, endurance, and friendship, a reminder that love, whether human or canine, has the power to heal what grief has broken.

Libraries seeking heartfelt, animal-centered stories will find this a worthy addition to their collections.
