Recommendation: Saved: Rescued Animals and the Lives They Transform

Those of you who followed my last book a week series might remember my post about Emily, my dog, that had to do with one of the books in the series. My gal turns seven on November 30, and I wrote up a post about her on my other blog.

If you’re an animal lover — especially a rescue animal lover — you might want to check out the new book Saved: Rescued Animals and the Lives They Transformby Karin Winegar. I’m not including it as part of this series, but it is a fine piece about how saving animals can save yourself. If you know anyone who’s thinking about getting a new pet and waffling on the shelter issue, give them this book. It could change their minds.

Here’s Emily’s shelter picture:

It was taken three years ago back when she was too scared in the shelter to eat. Can you imagine that someone hit this dog? So very sad. So very glad I found her.
