TV: "Bull," "Gossip Girl").

"LIKAH! is based on the real-life adventures of my own dog, Likah. As with most pet owners, I believed my pup was (and is) the cutest, smartest, and most adorable dog in the universe. And so, I began taking notes of all things LIKAH! from her joyful day-to-day discoveries to her relationship with my older female dog. As the diary continued, so did life itself. My own sister lost her battle with cancer, a month later, so did my older dog. As I chronicled Likah's life's journey, I realized the significant message within this sweet pup's story, and what I was documenting was actually my own experiences through Likah's eyes. Loss is difficult to deal with on any level, whether it's a pet, friend, or family member through illness, accident, or other difficult circumstances. But it's particularly difficult to process and comprehend for a child. My hope is LIKAH!'s enchanting spirit will encourage and inspire those who may need a hug from LIKAH!" LIKAH! creator Deborah Haber.
