A moving, delightful collection of stories that celebrate the canine-human bond. In this heart-warming work, we reunite with the lovable rescue dog and subject of the cherished book Arthur as he settles into his new life abroad. As we follow Arthur’s ups and downs with his owner, author Mikael Lindnord, we also meet sixteen other rescue dogs, each with a surprising story of how they found their forever home. From Ecuador to America, Australia to the Yukon, and everywhere in between, remarkable canine encounters prove that dogs really are our best friends—and that their journeys to find love and acceptance are as compelling as our most famed human tales.

“No Dog Should Die Alone” was the attention-grabbing — and heart-stirring — headline of journalist Laura T. Coffey’s TODAY show website story about photographer Lori Fusaro’s work with senior shelter pets. While generally calm, easy, and already house-trained, these animals often represent the highest-risk population at shelters. With gorgeous, joyful photographs and sweet, funny, true tales of “old dogs learning new tricks,” Coffey and Fusaro show that adopting a senior can be even more rewarding than choosing a younger dog. You’ll meet endearing elders like Marnie, the irresistible shih tzu who has posed for selfies with Tina Fey, James Franco, and Betty White; Remy, a soulful nine-year-old dog adopted by elderly nuns; George Clooney’s cocker spaniel, Einstein; and Bretagne, the last known surviving search dog from Ground Zero. They may be slower moving and a tad less exuberant than puppies, but these pooches prove that adopting a senior brings immeasurable joy, earnest devotion, and unconditional love.

The tides of dog ownership are changing, and thanks to Hollywood A-Listers like George Clooney and Sandra Bullock and music icons like Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift, animal rescue has become as fashionable as the latest Valentino or Armani. Millions of ordinary Americans—heroes one and all—have opened their hearts and homes to rescue dogs, and fewer abandoned pets are euthanized in the U.S. than ever before. And still, a look at HSUS statistics reminds us how far we have to go: an estimated three to four million pets are euthanized annually, a very significant improvement from the 1980s when the number was closer to sixteen million.To keep America's adoption trend moving forward and to guarantee that rescued dogs stay in their new forever homes, Tracy Libby's The Rescue Dog Problem Solver seeks to make the story of every adopted dog a predestined success. While most dogs wind up in shelters due to no fault of their own, many rescue dogs develop unwanted behaviors while living with their previous owners. To assure their success with their adopted dogs, rescuers must be prepared to handle and confidently resolve behavioral problems that arise through proven positive-training methods. This eye-opening problem-solving guide, filled with empowering stories of rescued dogs that defied the odds, is dedicated to the success of every rescuer and his happy, health companion dog.INSIDE TITLE OF BOOK50 ways rescuers can overcome potential challenges with their adoptive dogs200 training and behavior tips for a well-mannered dog25 secrets to unraveling common behavior issues, from house-soiling and escaping the yard to biting, barking, and hyperactivityA dozen heartwarming stories of real-life rescue dogs and their adoptive parentsCountless ways dog lovers can raise awareness about animal rescue and responsible pet ownership in their communities

Do you know what grief therapists recommend when you lose love of your life--talk to your family and friends. But what do you tell them when your only family and friend is your dog, the one you just lost? Will they understand? Will anyone understand? Pet loss can expose you to tiring explanations. You must explain to your boss that you need some time off because you lost your (special) family member. You must explain to your friends that there is only one friend who never left your side, your best friend. You must explain to your social media followers that a sad face emoji does not lessen the pain. Pet loss can also be the greatest spiritual experience that you’ll ever go through. But to experience something great, you first must heal, and healing is possible only when you allow yourself to be shaken to the core. Do you believe in the Rainbow Bridge story—the magical place where pets wait for their humans until they all meet again? If so, that’s heartwarming, but this is not such a story. This is a story about angels called pets who never leave their humans behind. The angel in this story is called Rocky.
