Book Project: A Dogs Purpose

A Dog's Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron

If you are someone that couldn't get enough of a dog's perspective in this book, then here is a little more from A Dog's Purpose.

Become part of the action in Bailey's life as he explores his purpose in his world. Meet his owners, his friends (human and dog alike.) Follow along the journey to his purpose, learning various skills along the way, ultimately reliving the book in its entirety. Run from the dog catchers as Toby, save Ethan as Bailey, do Find as Ellie and wander the woods as Buddy in search of Ethan. With Ethan, learn "love and companionship... just by accompanying him on his daily adventures." Go with Ethan into the woods and find your way back home by following the river. Be a front seat dog as Ethan takes you into town and help him pick out fun things to do. Go to Ethan's football games and learn more about the sport than you ever had by playing along with the boys at practice. Save Ethan as he dives into the water over and over. Hone this skill to re-use later when you do Find as Ellie, the German Shepard. Be Ellie as she learns her "clear purpose- to Find, Show, and save people." It will surly be an exhilarating experience. Find the little girl that's hidden inside of a torn up house. Sacrifice yourself for the little boy who had hidden inside a sewer and keep a sturdy finger on the swim button as the current sweeps you both down the sewer and to a river where you are saved. You're sure to be exhausted just as Ellie was.

If you were ever curious as to what it would be like to be this dog searching the world, fighting off evil and saving the good, playing this game will certainly be the answer. Relive the heartwarming story through this video game and go through the life of this dog as it searches for a purpose.
Explore the neighborhood as Bailey, meet new dogs and become friends. Then come home to save your family and fight off the evil forces of Todd. Bite his leg and hold on tight!

Ultimately answer the question Bailey returns to, "where's my boy?" Keep this question in mind as Buddy is released into the wild by his abusive owners. Search for Ethan, use your nose and follow the scent colors on the ground. Come across familiar scents and find out what they mean in order to learn where the boy, Ethan is. Don't forget determination as you try to get into Ethan's house. Just remember to never forget the power of the Flip to make Ethan understand you're Bailey, the dog that came back to him to make him happy. Relive the heartbreaking scene where Ethan passes away, but be comforted by the fact that you made him a happy old man by finding him Hannah, his high school love.

The game is based on the multiple things the dog accomplishes in his life. Essentially it's playing through the life of the dog that is reborn into a new dog over and over trying to find its purpose, which was ultimately to make Ethan happy and bring him together with Hannah in their old age.
