Are you struggling to feel happy and hopeful? Breathe. Slow your pace. Experience God day by day with Pawz and Pray—a feel-good devotional for women wanting more peace and joy in daily life!
Everyone needs joy! It's fuel for our journey. But sometimes, we find ourselves running on empty. Thankfully, God made dogs and countless other gifts to reveal his love, lift our eyes, and restore our soul . . . if only we would slow down to notice. In Pawz and Pray, author Leila Grandemange talks from the heart about the things that keep us busy, burdened, distracted, and disconnected from God, and turns our eyes heavenward where lasting joy is found. Whimsical, genuine, and uplifting, the insights drawn from Leila's journey, accompanied by her furry friends, will lead you down peaceful paths where you can hear from God, fill your tank, and move forward with peace and joy!
Pawz and Pray is a collection of 130 feel-good stories and life lessons from dogs, interwoven with scriptures, prayers, and fun photos of pets doing what they do best, making us smile! As you read, you'll be encouraged to:
- Slow your pace, be present, and appreciate the gifts along your path;
- Steal away for quiet time, enjoy nature, and be refreshed;
- Speak to God often, listen for his voice, and live secure in his love;
- Surrender your worries to God, and feel hopeful about tomorrow;
- Seek God above all else and discover the secrets to a more meaningful life!
The 1st edition was nominated for excellence in books by the Dog Writers Association of America. In this new edition, Leila once again reminds us that choosing joy is possible, as we walk and talk with Jesus, and focus on what matters most.

Editorial Reviews
Review
In Pawz & Pray Leila Grandemange shares both her devotion to dogs and her love of God in a warm tapestry of observations, narratives, quotations and biblical extracts. She illustrates so clearly how sharing love for one another, and caring for animals can be so richly rewarding and honoring to God. Beautifully illustrated, this is indeed a trove of profound inspiration. --Dennis Homes
Pawz & Pray is delightful reading that moves us and leads us along good paths to walk. Through Leila's conversational narrative she opens her life and shows us how God has been changing her and enriching her life to his glory. She takes us in life-giving directions that we should all want to go. It's as if she has invited us for tea on the porch or for a walk, always with at least one dog on leash, to hear meaningful stories and valuable insights about God's abounding love for us. But she doesn't just point the direction ahead and then leave us to figure out the journey for ourselves. Rather, Leila helps us know how to stay connected to God in our everyday lives with all our responsibilities, family, friends, and of course, our dogs . We could hardly hope for a better human companion. Unleash the insights on these pages into your life.
--Scott Stewart, Editor, Devotions and The Quiet Hour
Paws & Pray beautifully illustrates the healing power of being in communion with animals, weaving together the spiritual and therapeutic lessons our pets bestow upon us. It is in "relationship" that we collectively participate in one another's salvation (or destruction), and these insights are vividly depicted in her stories about devotion, forgiveness, patience and the cultivation of empathy. I am grateful that Leila has shared her experience and wisdom in this book, her prayer that we can all learn from our animal friends to be kinder to ourselves and each other. Now more than ever.
-- Malissa Feruzzi Shriver

The range of different topics in Pawz and Pray belies the simple premise of "comparing our relationships with our dogs to that with God"... war dogs, homeless people, recovering from surgery, dog (and child) training, lost and found, just to name a few. This book leaves no stone unturned.
I loaned my copy of Pawz and Pray to a friend who is "a cat lady and atheist" thinking it might help her with her severe depression. She said the book "helped her a lot" as we proceeded to discuss several of the many topics covered in the book.
I keep my copy by my bedside, and refer to it frequently. Whether my life is going smoothly, or I run into the inevitable challenges we all encounter, particularly during these troubled times, Pawz and Pray gives me wonderful insight and comfort. I feel refreshed, and my spirit renewed each time I read it.
This is a book for the lifetimes, to occupy a special place on your bookshelf or bedside table. It is a book to cherish, embrace, and share with those you love. Yes, it definitely needs more than 5 stars.

This book is not just for pet owners though. I enjoyed it so much that I gave it to my neighbor and she said she reads a devotional a day and it lifts her spirits.
Who couldn’t use an uplifting start to their day. Or better yet a quick devotional To re-center your day.
Pawz and Pray has made a positive and constructive impact on my life. Highly recommend it!
It's the type of book you can pick up and put down as needed or one that you can read every day.
If you have a dog, you'll enjoy it all the more!!!
Very glad I bought this book!
