Dr Bruce Fogle MBE said A humorous and heartfelt chronicle about two individuals learning to dance together in perfect harmony!

It’s amazing what you can achieve with persistence, a bit of chopped liver and a second hand teddy bear….

New Forest author Michael Forester began losing his hearing at the age of 30 due to a genetic condition. By the time he was 46, his hearing was all but gone and he was ready to try anything that might help. Then someone suggested that getting a dog might be a good idea – not just any dog, but a Hearing Dog from Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. And when, two years later, Michael was presented with a Hearing Dog of his own called Matt, he just knew life would be so much easier. Amazing how wrong you can be, isn’t it!

This is the story of Matt’s first year with Michael, the challenges and accomplishments of climbing the Hearing Dog learning curve, the profound changes he stimulated and the inestimable joy he confers magically on everyone who meets him. But most of all it is the story of the strange power of meaty treats to work miracles in doggie behaviour.

Sir Anthony Jay, writer of Yes Minister said said: A delightful and hugely enjoyable true life story of how an assistance dog changed a life - I loved it!
