This is the inspiring account of a family's struggle to break into their son's autistic world - and how a beautiful retreiver dog made the real difference. Dale was still a baby when his parents realised that something wasn't right. Worried, his mother Nuala took him to see several doctors, before finally hearing the word 'autism' for the first time. Scared but determined that Dale should live a fulfilling life, Nuala describes her despair at her son's condition, her struggle to prevent Dale being excluded from a 'normal' education and her sense of hopeless isolation. Dale's autism was severe and violent and family life was a daily battleground. But the Gardner's lives were transformed when they welcomed a gorgeous Golden Retriever into the family. The special bond between Dale and his dog Henry helped them to produce the breakthrough in Dale they had long sought. From taking a bath to saying 'I love you', Henry helped introduce Dale to all the normal activities most parents take for granted, and set him on the road to being the charming and well-adjusted young man he is today.This is a heartrending and fascinating account of how one devoted and talented dog helped a little boy conquer his autism.

A remarkable book which gives a small insight in to what it must be like to live with someone with autism & be that person with autism & a remarkable fight that Nuala took on for her child.I cried and smiled loads throught the book and could not put it down.

 Inspiring

Such an amazing story and written in such a way that you feel so much for the people. Nualas fight for Dale is so inspiring and proves that autism does not have to stop sufferers doing what they dream to doand have what they want to have from life. A must read for anyone who enjoys a good cry at a true story.
