Keith Robinson, author and journalist

The little stray beagle who became known as Harriet wasn’t just any homeless dog wandering the woods and neighborhoods of Fairfield Glade, Tennessee, in the spring and summer of 2021 looking for tidbits of food.

She appeared mysteriously during an unsettling, even tumultuous, time for our country. The lingering COVID-19 pandemic still was keeping us apart, and controversy over the outcome of the 2020 presidential election between President Donald Trump and Joe Biden was tearing us apart.

The timing was right for Harriet to enter our lives.

An uplifting story of benevolence

"I read it from cover to cover. . . . I cried and I laughed. I don't know what higher praise I could offer. Thank you for sharing the story of this brave little dog and the wonderful people across Fairfield Glade and the Plateau who have come to love her. But I fell in love with her through your words."
