A few weeks ago
I was visiting the TRIPLE A facilities for the first time and was deeply
impressed by the enormous amount of work that a few altruistic persons are
carrying out there in the benefit of abandoned animals. And all that with very
few means
That is why I
felt the need of doing something for this association and, as a writer, I
thought of writing a book on dogs which profits will go to the TRIPLE A. So I
wrote “About dogs and men”.
“About dogs and
men” is a
compilation of short stories telling about moving experiences that happen to
human beings and their beloved pets. The leading role is always played by the
dogs, so under their points of view they tell us about their experiences, their
beliefs, their sorrow, their joy, their daily life, sometimes happy and
wonderful, sometimes miserable.
It is my wish
that this little book serves those who love dogs to strengthen their affection
and appreciate even more their loyalty. I also wish that these stories help
those who have not had the chance to connect with these extraordinary animals
yet, to learn to love them.
Several persons
from Marbella are helping out in the production of this book. The painter Agustin
Casado is drawing illustrations for each story. Radio speaker Concha Montes wrote
the prologue. Literary critic Sara Roma did the spelling correction. Regina
Ugarte and Beryl Weima are translating the text into English and the editor Andrés García Baena
(Ediciones Algorfa) will take care of the layout and printing of the book.
The Marbella
Town Hall and particularly the counsellor Carmen Díaz are also
actively participating in the project.

Also attached an entry with a couple of stories, one sad and one happy, to give you an idea of the online book.
Thank you very much to all, on behalf of the dogs.
