Chasing Bocker’s Tale is the true story of an exceptional Labradoodle named Bocker.

From his deep questioning mind, he shares his insights, and his goals to lend a helping paw to all in need. His amazing career includes being a model, an actor, and a celebrity. When not on the set, he is the therapy doodle helping children and adults; and on his days off, he attends fundraisers to help shelters and rescues, all the while sharing love wherever he goes.
“Like anyone who’s met Bocker, I’ve always wondered, “What’s going on in that Doodle mind, behind those beautiful eyes?” and now I know! Those who haven’t been fortunate enough to meet Bocker in person finally get a wonderful perspective into the mind of a special animal who realized he was ‘different’ right from the start. Through Chasing Bocker’s Tale , we can finally HEAR what Bocker has been telling us (without words!) all along. This reluctant celebrity dog is simply happiest watching and learning, pleasing those around him, warming hearts and making others happy just by being Bocker.”
Greg Kleva – celebrity dog trainer & host of ‘It’s A Dog’s Life’ on Sirius XM

Four Paws Up for Chasing Bocker’s Tale!
Hi, I’m Zelda. My mom and I have known Bocker and his mom, Marie, for many years and we’ve watched his story evolve. Bocker is a remarkable dog who also happens to be an adorable Labradoodle. His ‘tale’ is a fun, fact-filled account of his life from pup to famous pooch. Bocker shares what it takes to become successful. With effective storytelling and savvy insights, Bocker will take everyone on an interesting walk of self-discovery. Like any dog who wants off the leash, Bocker holds nothing back and covers everything from being a precocious pup to that later time in life when we start losing friends who’ve crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. So let Bocker be your ‘guide dog’ because he has something valuable to teach. Bocker’s story is sweet and funny. He gets people to laugh at themselves through his wit and wisdom. Though Bocker is a BIG DOG, his heart is even bigger and he is both a model and a mentor for all of us. A doggone good inspirational read! Bocker’s Buddy and Gal-Pal,
