Reseña del editor:

Superb photographs and a fascinating cast of people and dogs make this book irresistible to anyone who s moved by the human-animal bond. The dogs included in this book were abandoned in animals shelters, at racetracks, or just by the side of the road. They were found and given a second chance by their current owners, but you ll wonder why they were ever lost when you meet these characters, from the mixed breed service dog with a vocabulary of over 300 words to the tiny furball companion of a female pilot who accompanies her everywhere on the ground and in the air. Renowned author and dog lover Peter Mayle is contributing the forward and celebrity contributions by the likes of Jamie Lee Curtis and Vice-President Albert Gore make this a top-notch collection. The exquisite black and white photographs capture the bond between these people and the dogs they love with incredible emotion and sensitivity. Elise Lufkin is a writer and

Nota de la solapa:

Found Dogs Every year, millions of dogs are abandoned?at racetracks, animal shelters or just on the side of the road. Although many of these animals end their days without ever experiencing a loving relationship with a human being, a few are fortunate enough to be found and given a second chance. And these dogs, many rescued from death's door, seem to have even more than the usual canine capacity for love and loyalty. You'll meet found dogs who are service dogs, protectors, and friends, offering solace, aid, companionship and inspiration. Like other dogs, found dogs give all this and more, but, ever grateful, they often seem to give 110 percent. Found Dogs is a moving tribute to the power of love between people and dogs?how that love has transformed dogs who were lost, and the people who were lucky enough to find them.
