About this listen

Ishbel Rose Holmes was adrift and alone when she set out to bicycle across the world. She was pedaling across Turkey when a street dog, Lucy, crossed her path and changed her life forever.

Ishbel did not want anything or anyone to slow her down, but when she witnessed Lucy attacked by other dogs, Ishbel rescued her - forming a deep bond between the pair. Ishbel recognized her own vulnerability in her new canine friend and launched a heartfelt mission to find Lucy a home and give her a happy life.

Their adventures took them to the Syrian border and into the hearts of everyone who met them. People around the world who followed the story on Ishbel's blog, World Bike Girl, watched as Lucy's unconditional love broke down the wall around Ishbel's heart. When Lucy died unexpectedly in her arms, Ishbel realized that Lucy had found a home after all - with her, and that Ishbel had been Lucy's happy ever after.

I’m tough, as a Vet tech you have to be. This was too much. It’s wonderfully written & told. Beautiful & exciting . A tale of much more than a dog. But I wish I’d stopped with the last 25 minutes.

Appreciated a display of “the best” and “the worst” of humanity between species, religions, cultures + sexes.

No true resolutions or answers become of this documentary….Yet, personal activism, empathy + action is the message of hope.

The remarkable transformation in this young, unloved girl thanks to the dog she saved is inspring. She learned love from a street dog and became healed and whole, God bless her.

Beautifully written story of a woman in her first year of cycling the world. A stray street dog starts following her somewhere in Turkey. After the dog was viciously attacked by a pack of other street dogs, Ishbel seeks care for the dog. She discovers that there is a dog sanctuary a few hundred miles away, so sets out cycling with Lucy in tow.

This is a true story and told so lovingly and brutally honestly by World Bike Girl herself. Don't do like I did and go and read her blog before finishing the book...it will spoil it. Go on the journey with her and Lucy. I highly recommend.
