Max Edelman was just 17 when the Nazis took him to the first of
five work camps, where his only hope of survival was to keep quiet
and raise an emotional shield. After witnessing a German Shepherd
kill a fellow prisoner, he developed a lifelong fear of dogs.
Beaten into blindness by two bored guards, Max survived, buried the
past, and moved on. But when he retired, he needed help. After a
month of training, he received Calvin, a devoted chocolate Labrador
retriever. Calvin guided Max safely through life, but he sensed
Max's distance and reserve. Calvin grew listless and lost weight.
Trainers intervened-but to no avail. A few days before Calvin's
inevitable reassignment, Max went for a walk. A car cut into the
crosswalk, and Calvin leapt forward, saving Max's life. Max's
emotional shield dissolved. Calvin sensed the change and
immediately improved, guiding Max to greater openness, trust, and
engagement with the world. Here is the remarkable, touching story
of a man who survived history and the dog that unlocked his heart.
