Duffy: The Tale of a Terrier is about a rescue dog named Duffy who arrives in Heaven, but neither limitless bowls of chow nor bottomless barrels of rawhide can take away the longing for his “folks” back home. Then he meets Rex, a literary easterner of the Boston Terrier persuasion, who encourages Duffy to write his life story. From a harrowing start in a hayloft, to a prolonged stay in a shelter, to his new life with an adoring childless couple, from puppyhood to neuterhood and beyond, Duffy relives his tale through the written word with the help of his new cultured friend. But how do two dogs –let alone two no longer even residing on earth – find a publisher?

In real life, Duffy Porter was born in a barn. He lived a happy full life with is adopted parents, prior to publishing Duffy: The Tale of a Terrier posthumously. Gary Porter was not born in a barn, but rather in a hospital in Iowa. He is a retired professor of accounting and an author of numerous textbooks. He lives with his wife Melissa in Hudson, Wisconsin, where they actively support animal rescue and welfare organizations.
