As an esteemed veterinary oncologist with nearly two decades of experience, Dr. Renee Alsarraf knew a lot about treating cancer, healing, and grief. Then she was given her own cancer diagnosis and she learned that our furry, four-legged, slobbering animals have so much to teach us about healing, positivity and unconditional love. Renee turned her experiences into the heartwarming book, Sit, Stay, Heal: What Dogs Can Teach Us About Living Well, where she shares life lessons about perfect dogs and their imperfect humans.
