A Dog’s Promise – The Newest in the “A Dog’s Purpose” Series!
This is the highly anticipated third book in the A Dog’s Purpose series.
A Dog’s Promise continues the story of Bailey, the good dog whose journey started in A Dog’s Purpose (the international hit film) and continued in A Dog’s Journey (now also a major motion picture). This time, Bailey is joined by another very special dog, who helps Bailey fulfill his promise over the course of several lives.
This charming, wise canine soul brings joy, laughter, and comfort as he unites a family fractured by life’s inevitable obstacles. The love and loyalty of these two memorable dogs shows us the incredible power of hope, truth, and unending devotion in this moving novel by award-winning author W. Bruce Cameron.
"A Dog's Purpose/A Dog's Journey" Teaching Guide
If you’ve read Dog's Purpose or the sequel A Dog's Journey, you are aware of the potential for using these novels to seize the imaginations of your students, and to get them thinking beyond the written page and into the deeper, more profound aspects of the story. Indeed, both books have been successfully used in grades as young as 5th and as old as 12th. Using feedback from these real world experiences, a pair of educators has created a study guide to assist teachers in using both books in the classroom. This study guide is available for download, free. The guide has been aligned to the CCR national standards and specific comprehension questions have been designed to meet these standards. Vocabulary development has been pre-leveled for students as: middle school level, high school level, and advanced level.

Such a heartfelt and emotional story—A Dog’s Promise really captures the power of love, loyalty, and second chances through Bailey’s journey across different lives. It’s touching how the bond between dogs and humans never fades, no matter the obstacles. Reading it gave me the same kind of focus and emotional flow I feel when playing space waves—simple on the surface, but surprisingly deep and meaningful.
I like how eggy car free runs smoothly in the browser without any setup. It’s one of those games you can instantly jump into without thinking.
I loved reading this book and so many others and the fact it includes a service dog for the boy in a wheelchair and his struggle to be able to bring him to school is amazing
