What if the clearest path to joy, presence, and radical love wasn't found in a temple - but in a muddy paw print?
In the spirit of The Tao of Pooh and The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, The Tao of Dogs offers bite-sized, tail-thumping truths from two unlikely sages: Groot, a cuddly black Lab who treats joy like a mission, and Rocket, a zoomie-prone Jack Russell with no off-switch and zero regrets.
This is not a novelty gift book. It's not about training your dog, either. It's about un-training yourself - from anxiety, from perfectionism, from the endless chase for more - by learning from those who've mastered the art of now.
Each short, poetic chapter distills one dog's-eye lesson in how to live:
- Zoom when they expect you to nap
- Circle before you settle
- Trust the leash sometimes
- Let joy be loud
- Don't fake sleep when you're sad
- Say yes with your whole body
Wise, irreverent, and unfiltered, this book belongs next to your meditation guides, not your chew toys.
Whether you're a dog lover, a spiritual seeker, or someone trying to find your way back to joy - The Tao of Dogs is a nuzzle, a nudge, and a reminder:
You don't need to be calmer, wiser, or better.
You just need to show up,
tail wagging.
