Produktbeschreibung

Praise for "Saving Gracie" ""Saving Gracie" is heart-rending but also wonderfully stirring and empowering. The operators of puppy mills are arrogant, greedy, and cruel, but the people committed to putting them out of business make you want to cheer--and they restore your faith in humanity. Carol Bradley does a great service to dogs by telling this story." --Dean Koontz, "New York Times" bestselling author "Carol Bradley seizes a national moment in "Saving Gracie." With deft investigative skill and a loving heart, she tells the story of Gracie, and her sojourn from a puppy mill. If we are judged as human beings by the way we treat our animals, this is an eye-opening account, direct and informative, one you will not be able to put down." --Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of "Very Valentine and Big Stone Gap" ""Saving Gracie" is one of those rare books that will at once disturb, inspire, and move you to action. Read this outstanding book about the enduring strength of the human-animal bond and share it widely. It is that important." --Marc Bekoff, author of "The Emotional Lives of Animals, Wild Justice, and The Animal Manifesto" "In this book about the best and the worst of human behavior, we see that the best in both humans and canines prevails. Bradley's cast of angels will fill your heart with joy and gratitude that such souls exist. This book is essential reading for anyone who loves dogs and thinks justice matters." --Susan Richards, author of the "New York Times" bestseller "Chosen by a Horse" ""Saving Gracie" is a story told with verve, with compassion, with style, and with marvelous intelligence. Any dog lover will be happy to add this to the growing list of wonderful books about dogs." --Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson, bestselling author of "Dogs Never Lie About Love" and "The Face on Your Plate"
