About this listen
This is the story of a springer spaniel and her half-sister, who set out to discover the reason their owner meditates and is so interested in the teachings of the Buddha. Ably assisted by a bookshelf, who holds a fountain of knowledge, they embark upon a quest to discover the secrets of meditation and uncover the path to ancient wisdom. As they progress along the road to enlightenment, they not only transform their own perception of life, but also the lives of those around them. The journey is a challenging one, but is held together by Half-Sisters wicked sense of humour and a desire to enter into spaniel folklore.
The Enlightened Spaniel is a wise tale, filled with insights and humour, that celebrates the connection between all beings that reside on Planet Earth.

One of the best books on meditation, acceptance, compassion and kindness.
This book is narrated by a dog and het half sister. It made me laugh out loud throughout the story because it’s so relatable. I got the audio version. The reader was perfect to bring the story to life. I’ve listened to it about six times and enjoyed it every time. I highly recommend it for any age. It’s very insightful and well written. Thanks to the author. I’m hoping the other two books in the trilogy will come to audible soon.

Sweet Simplicity
I liked learning about the Buddhist faith in such a sweet and simple way. It can seem like a lofty and difficult discipline to learn.

Loved this story
This is a light read, however, lots of interesting and lightening things in it. Although it’s told from a dog’s perspective, humans could gain a lot from it as well. I think anyone that loves dogs and is interested in Buddhism would enjoy this book.

DELIGHTFUL INTRO TO SPIRITUAL PRACTICE
In its bones, this is a how-to book. Fundamental instruction in meditation and the elements of living a spiritual life are well documented. But it’s the presentation that delivers the magic. A charming story told in a voice one might yearn to hear at breakfast for a lifetime.

Weird
I did not like the reader and the book is pretty weird mixing the views of a dog with a serious spiritual quest.
