๐I am in absolute awe of Cara Sue Achterberg. She, and other dog rescuers like her around the country, are absolute angels on earth. They are the voice for the countless stranded dogs in our nation and are warriors in what seems to be a never-ending battle to rescue these helpless, abandoned animals. Ms. Achterberg's book is enlightening and chock-full of resources and information to make a change in how our society views and treats dogs (and cats).
๐The journey Cara em"bark"ed on (couldn't resist๐) was one of sadness brimming with hope, and one that underscores the importance of knowledge and compassion in any crisis. There are shocking revelations of underfunded dog shelters and success stories of efficacious rescue organizations begun by people willing to make a difference. It was a story of wonder, with regard to both the misinformation that many people have about dogs, as well as the people attempting to change the shelter landscape. It's a book that will leave you recognizing our duty as humans to care for the voiceless companions that bring so much joy if only given the opportunity.
๐This book was so well-written and engaging and I highly recommend it to all you animal-lovers out there, as well as to any of you wanting to learn more about a very worthy cause.
