Maurita Motland's Newly Released "MacHaven: A Journey" is a Moving True Story of a Family Whose Lives are Transformed by Adopting a Labrador Retriever Named Mac
"MacHaven: A Journey" from Christian Faith Publishing author Maurita Motland is a heartwarming memoir that chronicles the life and times of Mac, a Labrador retriever who had been adopted as a puppy into the author's family, unaware that he would open them up to the fascinating world of the American Kennel Club activities and the training of professional service search, rescue, and hunting dogs; in the process pushing his owners to stretch themselves and fill their lives with love, fun, and fulfillment.
MEADVILLE, Pa., Sept. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "MacHaven: A Journey": an unforgettable true story of a Labrador owner's adventures in the world of professional dogs. "MacHaven" is the creation of published author, Maurita Motland, a passionate writer and lover of Labrador retrievers who resides in Enumclaw, Washington, with her husband.
Motland shares, "Over twelve years ago, we brought home our lovable bundle of yellow fur, Mac. As we cuddled him, trained him, and played with this little pup, we had no idea about the new world that was to be opened before us: the world of the working Labrador retriever. We, of course, fell in love with Mac but also the breed. Labrador retrievers are awesome dogs, and I love watching them work. Whether it's hunting, search and rescue, being a service dog, I love to watch them perform. They are even being trained to alert their owner of medical conditions. That is amazing to me. They are fun, versatile dogs. They love to work, but they'll also hang out with you and lie around with you. I enjoy taking pictures of them, and for some reason, I think I could sell books of all the pictures I've taken of my Labradors, even though they are not professional. I'm in love. Talk to me about your kids, and I'll talk to you about my Labradors. I won't skip a beat, and it will relate. Really! Friends and family will confirm this."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Maurita Motland's new book is an enthusiastic story of the precious bond between dogs and humans not only in the personal sphere but also in the professional.
Just as the author had been surprised to find herself growing personally as she takes care of her Labradors, readers can benefit from these lessons—and maybe consider adopting a puppy themselves!
