'Spud the companion.

'Spud the work dog.

'Spud the wild dog.

'Spud the mother.

'Spud the hunted.

'This dramatic and compelling tale of a blue heeler will touch the hearts of all readers. John Heffernan's vivid portrayal of life in the bush is written from first-hand experience. Spud is the author's own loyal companion on his property in northern New South Wales and was the inspiration for the story.'
