Almost Too Many Dogs
Author: Charlotte Higgins-Lee
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1460259033
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 61
Book Description
This uplifting little book tells the true life stories of a few dogs who were lucky enough to be rescued and fostered until good homes could be found. TOLD SIMPLY, MOSTLY FROM THE LOVEABLE DOGS' POINTS OF VIEW, THIS DELIGHTFUL BOOK SPEAKS ALSO FOR CHILDREN WHO GO THROUGH THE FOSTER CARE/ADOPTION SYSTEM. Some kids and pets have a rough journey before they get a safe, loving home. Some have to be placed a couple of times before getting a good fit. We wish all of them could be born lucky and always be happy! There needs to be enough good, "forever" homes for every pet that is born. ('FOREVER" MEANS "FOREVER," NOT "WHILE IT IS CONVENIENT." IT MEANS "EVEN WHEN THE PET GETS OLD OR SICK." IT MEANS, WHEN YOU MOVE, YOU TAKE THE PET WITH YOU.) Until then, good and kind people need to provide rescue, shelter, foster, and adoption services for those who get an unlucky break. For pets, MUCH of the answer is taking the responsibility to protect them, not let them run loose, vaccinate them, and to spay or neuter them. (A neutered or spayed pet lives a longer, healthier life and does NOT create MORE pets that need homes.) Rescue, fostering and adoption are hard work. Sometimes sad. LOVE is what keeps those animal welfare people trying. Most are volunteers. They LIVE for the happy endings! A loving heart is a loving heart, no matter in what chest it beats.

Sick Puppy

Publisher: Vintage Crime/Black Lizard
ISBN: 0375412735
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 625
Book Description
Brilliantly twisted entertainment wrapped around a powerful ecological plea—from the New York Times bestselling author of Squeeze Me. When Palmer Stoat notices the black pickup truck following him on the highway, he fears his precious Range Rover is about to be carjacked. But Twilly Spree, the man tailing Stoat, has vengeance, not sport-utility vehicles, on his mind. Idealistic, independently wealthy and pathologically short-tempered, Twilly has dedicated himself to saving Florida's wilderness from runaway destruction. He favors unambiguous political statements—such as torching Jet-Skis or blowing up banks—that leave his human targets shaken but re-educated. After watching Stoat blithely dump a trail of fast-food litter out the window, Twilly decides to teach him a lesson. Thus, Stoat's prized Range Rover becomes home to a horde of hungry dung beetles. Which could have been the end to it had Twilly not discovered that Stoat is one of Florida's cockiest and most powerful political fixers, whose latest project is the "malling" of a pristine Gulf Coast island. Now the real Hiaasen-variety fun begins… Dognapping eco-terrorists, bogus big-time hunters, a Republicans-only hooker, an infamous ex-governor who's gone back to nature, thousands of singing toads and a Labrador retriever greater than the sum of his Labrador parts—these are only some of the denizens of Carl Hiaasen's outrageously funny new novel.
