One mild February day in 2013, in the Welsh village of Devauden, Kate Humble unexpectedly fell in love. With a ginger and white Welsh sheepdog puppy.
Learning how to train Teg to become a fully-fledged working sheepdog, Kate began to discover the extraordinary relationship that can be forged between a human and a dog when the two are working together in partnership.
Inspired by that special connection, Kate wanted to find out more: how did this extraordinary animal evolve from predator to lifesaver? What happened to allow a fearsome hunter to be invited onto our sofas?
So begins a journey that takes Kate from rural Wales, to the mountains of Afghanistan, a prison in Scotland, and a unique research centre in Austria. Meet Ex-Royal Marine Jon with his chocolate Labrador Jester; Marjory with her beloved ex-guide dog Mouse; Colonel Neil Smith and his retired IED detection dog Fire and many more people whose dogs have changed and saved countless lives by working together with their owners, handlers and human companions.
Inspiring, eye-opening and heart-warming, Friend for Life is the story of how dogs became essential to our lives and why they really are man's best friend.
