Harry Howard: Memoirs of an Expat, Frequent-Flyer, Cross-Culture Golden Retrieve

When he was nine months old, Golden Retriever Harry Howard boarded a 747 in Canada bound for Hong Kong. This marked the beginning of his life as an expat, frequent-flyer, cross-culture dog. More than ten years and five countries later, Harry shares his story, recounting his unforgettable adventures in vivid detail. With a little help from his mom, Julie, he reflects on the places he lives, the people he meets, and the cultures and customs he discovers as he moves from Hong Kong to Hanoi, Thailand, Ho Chi Minh City, and Cambodia. This unique memoir based on actual events that happened during the course of Harry’s lifetime, is told with humor, sensitivity, and trademark Golden effervescence, offering invaluable insight into life abroad, especially as an expat pup. While trying to make sense of the ever-changing world around him, Harry provides his own interpretation regarding a “silent sickness,” he has observed through his own Humans and other expat Humans’ behavior, during his travels—a.k.a culture shock. For the millions of wary travelers and expats who leave their countries every year to become “strangers in a strange land,” Harry’s calm, “even-pawed” advice could well serve as a guide to make their transitions to new and often challenging environments, much smoother.
