Readers will meet dogs who are smart, heroic, funny, loyal--all sorts of special pets with extraordinary experiences to share. There's the young Saint Bernard who was adopted from a shelter at the eleventh hour and went on to become the mascot for a professional football team...the neighborly golden retriever who was abandoned when her owner died and soon afterward saved a toddler from falling off a cliff...the elderly blind mutt and deaf old mongrel who found each other near the end of their lonely lives and remained soul mates forever.

These and scores of other tales are sure to make the reader laugh, reflect, admire and, perhaps, swallow hard when an unexpected lump wags its tail in the reader's throat. Disposable Dogs celebrates the meaningful, wondrous lives that have been rescued by good people who make a difference.

Worthwhile reading. Very touching.

I found the stories touching and at the same time heartwarming. In a time when the world as we know it can be cruel to mans best friend, it lets the readers know how kindness and compassion is still prevalent. It makes you realize how much hope and love abandoned dogs and cats can still give us after their hard and sometimes heartbreaking events.


Special stories of special dogs!

For the dog lover - an insight in to the stories and lives of very special dogs.A must read for dog lovers.


If we could forgive like dogs

These stories show the way dogs think, love, forgive, learn to trust again after horrible abuse and that there is more to dogs than we think. This book touched me, made me angry, made me cry, and made me cherish and look at my four dogs in a completely different way. I thank the author for showing me that the bond of love between humans and animals is something I had been taking for granted. And for those who haven't experienced it, they are missing something more precious than any gem on Earth.

Disposable Dogs

To think that these dogs were disposed! How many more have died suffering or been euthanazed - what wasted lives! But their luck turned around and for it, both people and these dogs lives were enriched; some even saved their saviours.

I think the message this book tries to send out is: next time you see a stray, don't think of it as a nuisance but a life that has value and deserves to be on this planet; a life that could have given so much love and care, if only his/her circumstances were different.

It's a good read, if only just to enlighten people.

DOGS ARE MAN'S BEST FRIENDS

A very pleasant book for dog lovers. It's a rather simple book with a collection of brief stories about various dogs and how they have impacted the lives of humans in a positive way. Most of the dogs featured are rescue dogs and many have been seriously abused. Some were so abused that they faced euthanasia but a wag of a tail showed their determination to live. All of the dogs show love and compassion to their humans and some become true heroes in every sense of the word. Others simply give their humans a reason to live and to smile again. Most of the stories are about the unconditional love dogs give us even when humans have been far from kind to them. I'd guess the author collected a number of stories about dogs and combined them into a book. It's a nice collection of sweet stories where most, but not all, have happy endings, but in every story a human was touched by the love and compassion of a dog
