 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.

Things
By Buster with Assistance from Roger W. Hite, Ph.D. November 2008
publication. 140 page paperback.
Buster's Spirit is a story told through the eyes of Buster, a Golden Retriever.
In his lifetime Buster spent many evenings with his philosopher friend, Roger,
sitting on the sea wall overlooking the Monterey Bay. There, Buster and Roger

and death and published a book of their thoughts ―
Buster at the Wall.

his former master's current Golden Retriever. Buster assists Toby through the
final days of his cancer and introduces him to the reality of The Grand Scheme
of Things. It is a heartwarming story about the life of a Golden Retriever and
the unconditional love he shared with Roger, his wife Debby, and a Main Coon Cat

now out of print..
Second book in Buster trilogy. This

insightful, and intelligent story about a dog's quest to help the Creator
perfect the Grand Scheme of Things.*Also signed by author.
