Affairs of a Dog Man

At a young age, Grew Tuckett turns to dogs for companionship. Born blind in one eye, he lives his whole life a bit differently from those around him.
As a young man, he is a bit naive about women; when a young lady named Marilyn befriends him, he is excited-even though he soon learns she is already pregnant by someone else. In the midst of the pregnancy, Grew finds himself drawn to another woman, a brief entanglement that ends as quickly as it begins. Meanwhile, after Marilyn gives birth and gives the baby up for adoption, she and Grew marry and start a kennel and dog-breeding business. But their lives are not without conflict. As they engage in separate affairs, their conflicts and emotions bubble over-until a battle with cancer changes their lives forever.
This novel follows the life of a young man and his questionable life decisions as he learns about sex, love, and coping with the end of relationships."
