A Dog Named Chuck was inspired by her daughters. When they were in pre-school, Alisha would make up stories to help the time pass in the car while driving between activities. One daughter would provide two animals and the location for the story, the other, two animals and the weather for the story. A Dog Named Chuck was born from this simple but fun formula, along with many other stories. Some were good, and some were not so good — the ‘unicorn’ days were a BIG challenge!
A Dog Named Chuck became a favorite story and Alisha knew she wanted to share it with the world, hoping other young children would enjoy it as much as her twins did. Alisha lives in Texas and has two goofy, lazy dogs. Moose is an enormous chocolate lab at 136 lbs. Scout, a typical golden retriever, is the small dog at 84 lbs.
