Zheutlin, Peter

"Interweaves stories and lessons from families who have welcomed rescue dogs into their homes with [the authors] own zany experiences adopting one for the first time in midlife to reveal what we can learn from these animals who were once lost and are now found"--Publisher.

The extraordinary story of one man who has driven more than 1 million miles to rescue thousands of dogs from hunger, abuse and neglect and give them a second chance at life and love.

Shares the story of Annie Londonderry, a young mother in 1894 who scorned Victorian notions of female propriety to accept a challenge to ride around the world on a bicycle.
