I love this book! It is a must have/read for anybody involved with animal rescue or for someone who has the desire to get involved with saving unwanted animals. This book does a great job of bringing shelter dogs to light and helps educate those that read the book about what it is like to try to save these wonderful animals. It's a great gift idea too!

Pros: inspirational, motivational

Cons: none

The authors did a great job on this book. They feature a shelter animal and tell its story. Some happy endings, and some not so happy.
More of a day in the life and portrays the truth of what is happening with pet overpopulation and the shelter environment.
Actually, the shelter they visited was a rather good one--if they would have come to my area or other states, there would have been a lot fewer happy endings.

Pros: Focuses on individuals

Cons: Sad--but isn't it supposed to be?

I love stories and books like these. Those that buy from stores and breeders need to read this. Hopefully it will encourage them to adopt.

Pros: Inspirational

Cons: none

this is good to educate people and children about what goes on at shelters. no one really has any idea. i didn't until i started working there. this would be very good reading for school children

Pros: very educational

Cons: n/a

I requested this book form my library and was so glad I did. i loved reading the stories about the dogs even though they made me cry. A great format to educate the public on the joys of adopting a shelter dog. i am always on the lookout for informative and interesting adoption stories.

Pros: Informative and heartwarming

Cons: none
