After getting their puppy as a wedding gift to each other, they experience the challenges of following career opportunities, moving to new homes, raising their three young children, and living the busy life of a dynamic family.

Always by My Side follows the natural life of a dog in the whirlwind of family life. In vivid and personable prose, Lianne highlights the joys, successes, and emotions that are involved in the everyday life of her family, while demonstrating the beautiful bond between dogs and their human friends. Told in a similar style to Marley and Me, this endearing dog tale will delight animal lovers of all ages and stages.

Without a doubt, Lianne is a dog person and plans to always have a dog by her side. Lianne is a community organizer and volunteer; an avid world traveller; and she loves to play as much tennis and golf as is physically possible. Lianne blogs about travel and life at Liannehill.ca. Lianne and her husband Paul, divide their time between their home in Toronto and their country retreat in the Caledon Hills, along with their two dogs, Scout and Coco. Lianne and Paul look forward to family dinners and travelling adventures with their three young adult children.
