Good Boy is a universal account of a remarkable story: showing how a young boy became a middle-aged woman--accompanied at seven crucial moments of growth and transformation by seven memorable dogs. "Everything I know about love," she writes, "I learned from dogs."

Dogs enable us to pull off what seem like impossible feats: becoming brave, becoming loyal, and, most of all, becoming our true selves. Spanning the realms of relationships, gender identity, and, of course, the pets that shape our lives, Good Boy is a mirror for self-reflection and a beacon of authenticity and acceptance.
