Some years back we discovered the 1994 book, Buster At The Wall. Hungering for more from Golden Retriever author, Buster, we did some earnest detective work and finally located Dr. Roger Hite ─ Buster's talented co-author. We learned that Roger, recently retired CEO at Dominican Hospital, had published several books, his desire to truly comfort and inspire with his writing. Whether one is reading those written by Golden Buster (with Roger's help) or Roger (with Buster's help), the experience will be a unique and uplifting one. How can it not be with Buster's special brand of dog-philosophy?

Dr. Hite has been a great champion of our foundation's cause, donating several copies to us to raise monies for our mission of providing funding canine cancer treatment and research. And, we are so deeply humbled by his dedicating his final Buster books (BUSTER'S VIEW and BUSTER'S SPIRIT) to our foundation.
 

I finished my Buster book and found it a very enjoyable read. I also believe in the "grand scheme of things" philosophy and the book helped ease the hurt of losing my Bailey. ― Denise Mann
