Description
100 real-life stories of canine heroism from around the world, including an New York police dog and a bomb-detecting dog in Northern Ireland.
Hero Dogscelebrates the noble traits of man's best friend-smarts, guts, devotion, perseverance, and intuition-in an extraordinary array of true stories accompanied by evocative photographs. Among the many adventurers: Mimi, a tiny peach-colored poodle, who saved a family of seven from a fiery death; Weela, an American pit bull terrier, who rescued thirty people, twenty-nine dogs, thirteen horses, and one cat from the perilous water of the swollen Tijuana River; Reona, the astonishing Rottweiler, who jumped three fences during an earthquake to come to the aid of an epileptic child. Everyone loves a hero, and everyone loves a dog. Here is a book that unites the two.
