About this product
Product Information
Finding hope out of shame's transgenerational grip The younger of two siblings, Wright is raised on a central Wisconsin dairy farm. She lives isolated in a chaotic, dysfunctional environment pummeled with name-calling, belittling, and anger. She is sexually molested and made to carry out acts of violence against animals by her father who threatens her. Sworn to silence, this is her normal life; take it and shut up. Her only true friend is the family farm dog. Her mother provides a foundation of faith. Wright's adult life is one broken relationship after another. Not understanding why relationships are so dysfunctional, she feels targeted. Love is abstract. Deep within her, she knows something is not right and struggles to identify what it is. More than fifty years later, entering her life, is Saxon, a Golden Retriever who shows her a spiritual pathway out of her mental turmoil. Through his own rehabilitation from inter-dog aggression and the threat of being put down, Saxon and Wright form an unbreakable bond. Saxon teaches her about the matters of the heart. Because of God and Saxon, she discovers transgenerational shame is the foundation of the spiritual battle within. Saxon teaches her that if he can release his anger, she can overcome and heal from shame. It's a rough-and-tumble near-death struggle for both. There are roller coaster moments of deep sorrow, hilarity, compassion, introspection, and inspiration. The dogs in this story will grab your heart.

Reviews
Bonnie, I have endorsed many books over the years, but none as powerful as yours "An amazing book, truly. I actually sneaked away from family gatherings to keep on reading Digging Up Bones. It's that good! And I'm not even a dog person. But Bonnie's complete openness about her battle through shame and rejection, her journey to faith and healing through the dogs and the Lord that have changed her life, had me crying and clapping. Bonnie writes like a poet, with crystal-clear images and raw emotion, so every story has a powerful unforgettable message for the reader. If you or anyone you know has need for healing, encouragement, and a better life, please get this book." DR. ALAN ZIMMERMAN, CSP, CPAE SPEAKER HALL OF FAME, AUTHOR OF PIVOT, PAY OFF PRINCIPLE, THE CHAMPION EDGE As Marion Roach Smith says in her Foreword, "Do not mistake this for a mere dog tale. It is nothing of the sort." She is correct. While there is a dog in the story, the true story is about faith and hope and healing. And this is a love story. We know, maybe directly and maybe anecdotally, the damaging power of shame and its sneaking ways in shrinking lives and drawing us down. But we can now learn from Wright and her magnificent story ways other than therapy or drugs to heal hearts and be expanded back to wholeness. When love arrives to help us heal we may not choose its form or its species. But love it is and Wright shows us how very powerful it can be. This is a great book. DIANE CAMERON, WRITING COACH, SPIRITUAL DIRECTOR AND AUTHOR OF NEVER LEAVE YOUR DEAD Ah, the power of pets... They can get us out exercising when our body says no, make us laugh when we didn't think that we had anything to laugh about, get us up in the morning when we would rather cover our head with the blanket, and, like Bonnie Wright, be a reason to take better care of ourselves and heal a broken spirit. As this gifted author shares her path of recovery, she artistically unveils the heart of her beloved canine companion, Saxon, and realizes that the rough beginnings of this dog parallel her own broken life. It is then that she recognizes their destiny as soulmates, not only to mend the spirit of one another but also to provide the gentle guidance to do the same for others. Making a difference in the lives of others makes life worth living. Bonnie and Saxon do this with abundance, touching-and making a difference-for all who read their story.
