Shelter Dogs: Amazing Stories of Adopted Strays

136 pp. | Whitman | March, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-8075-7334-5 $$14.95
(4) 4-6 Photographs by Greg Farrar. Kehret tells the stories of eight dogs, rescued from animal shelters to go on to bigger and better things--like Tracker, who became an animal actor, and Ivan, who alerted his hearing-impaired family of a fire. Each chapter begins with a black-and-white photo and ends with a sidebar on a profile-related topic. Despite the often melodramatic tone, these tales will beguile dog-loving readers.
