True Tales of Rescue series.
Photographs by
Virgil Ocampo.
Three senior dogs "tell" their stories of abandonment, rescue, and (hopefully) finding a new home. The dogs' "voices" sound similar, but the content--about older-dog rescue, ways the dogs and caregivers accommodate "senior ills," and rescuer Val Lynch's Maryland sanctuary work--is compelling. Plenty of engaging photos in a friendly design make for an accessible presentation. An author's note and additional resources appended. Websites. Bib., glos.
