As Fielding Marshall hikes on the Appalachian Trail, his beloved dog--a six-year-old golden retriever mix named Gonker--bolts into the woods and vanishes. And Gonker has Addison's disease. If he's not found in twenty-three days, he will die. The search begins. With a big heart, intelligent humor, and a deft touch, Pauls Toutonghi tells this true tale of loss, love, and resilience. Dog Gone is a story about how a family comes together in a crisis, and how heroism can assert itself in the little things we do each day"--Back cover. 20161107. Marshall family. Golden retriever.
