- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Heartwarming stories of shelter dogs lucky enough to be saved. Some of them made me cry, such wonderful sweet dogs, given a second chance by such wonderful people. Miracles really can happen.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The photo and title say it all.
I love a happy ending for a shelter dog - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Each of the eight chapters of this book is about a dog who was rescued from shelter and went on to become an outstanding pet or service dog. There's Zorro, who endured lonely months before being adopted, but went on to become a champion at flyball. Bridgette journeyed from abandonment to a shelter through training at a women's prison with the Prison Pet Partnership Program (PPPP) to become a seizure-alert dog. Tyler, a border collie, was blind until a shelter volunteer adopted him and paid for the surgery to remove his cataracts. Each dog is unique in its personality and gifts. The people who adopted them exemplify mercy and caring. Dog and owners come together in these pages to make a joyful and inspiring read.
