The story is told from a pup' s point of view so is just as precious as a pup, once we get past Jessica the puppy' s early days. This is NOT a book for, or to be shared with a child, as her owner, a grown man, abuses and neglects her. I learned a new, sad fact from Jessica talking about another, adult dog after she is taken from the bad man; humans with ugly hearts "dock" (shorten) the ears of dogs they intend to fight so the other dog in the fight can't clamp their teeth onto the first dog's ears. So God bless the fosters, the no-kill shelters, the volunteers, and the adopters and rescuers, along with those who exhort others to adopt rather than shop. A short and good read.
This story is written from the perspective of an abused puppy who gets a chance at life. At times harsh, I cringed at some of the misery the puppy endured. In the end things turned out well. I am one of those people who cover my eyes with my hands during the scary part of a movie and I felt a little like that reading this book. I love the creative focus from which the story unfolds.
I loved this story about Jessica told from her point of view. Her horrible beginning to being saved to having to have her leg amputated to a happy ending. It was so beautifully written and I cried at her abusive treatment and again at her happy ending. To share her feelings was a unique feeling. I have often wondered what my animals are thinking and Jessica gave me insight into this. I highly recommend for any age.
At first I didn't know what this book would be about. I was crying by the end of the first page. But...as you can imagine, there is a happy ending. The way the book is written, from an abused puppy's perspective, is an awesome way to get the information out in the open that animals do have thoughts and feelings, just like we do. This is a short story, but you won't be able to put it down. I wish everyone could read this book and put their feelings into action to stop all animal abuse. Kudos to the author!
I gave four stars because it was interesting and I enjoyed the story. To start life and be treated so mean was sad. For Jessica to get rescued from the abuse and find her real home was heartwarming. I especially like the way Jake and Nina came to her aid when the stranger tried to grab her. I really liked this book and would recommend it to anyone who has a soft spot for animals in distress.
I cried my eyes out for the first few chapters. I had to,put this book down w mms several times it hurt my heart so badly. But then it got happy. I am,so glad that the little 3 legged dog was o no. My cat has three legs and like humans the rain bothers her lost leg.I would recommend this book to people with a strong stomach as, the beginning is brutal.
This book really tugged at my heart strings and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Everyone should read it, but especially those looking to get a pet. An easy read with a happy ending.
THIS IS A VERY TOUCHING STORY!! IT TELLS THE STORY FROM THE DOGS POINT OF VIEW! SHE IS ABUSED FOR SO VERY LONG, AND LOOSES ALL HOPE! THEN THERE COMES A WOMAN WHO MAKES LIFE WORTH LIVING AGAIN! AND FOSTER PARENTS THAT MAKE EVERY DAY A SPECIAL DAY FOR ALL OF THE DOGS IN THEIR CARE! AND SHE FINALLY FINDS HER FUREVER HOME AND PARENTS!! IT IS A GREAT STORY!!
