I was one of the lucky stories in this book. We adopted Klondike, a cream Chow from Alabama. This book was so touching. I am so glad there are good people in the world like this and I am glad that the writer was able to write about it.
Great Stories
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is a great book for the holidays. What could be better than reading about dogs who made it out of shelters and puppy mills and got the homes they deserved all along. The stories are short so the book fits a lot of "happy tails" between its covers. Petfinder has been revolutionary in getting so many dogs rescued and it's great to read some of their "alumni" stories. One quibble is that they do not include photos for most of the dogs. The key to Petfinder's success is people can see the dogs and make a connection. I don't know why the author didn't include pictures for all the dogs so you could see the animal behind the story.
