ebookYou wouldn't be the first person asking to "return" your pet. And dog rescuer Randy Grim has heard every reason under the sun. But before you load Fido into the back of your car, read this book.
In it, Randy addresses the concerns of dog guardians everywhere by responding to letters that he's actually received. With humor, and from his vast experiences with abandoned dogs, he reveals exactly what you can do to remain calm and fix every bad behavior problem. (Even if it means dumping your husband instead of the dog.)

July 1, 2009
Grim, founder ofa Missouri rescue agency for feral and abused dogs, has previously promoted his causein the popular pressand on TV (his own reality show is apparently in the works). In thisbook, he voices hisgreat frustration about pet guardians whose self-interest outweighs their obligation to their charges. Using letters from individuals who want to dump their dogs, and experiences hes had with his own pack of developmentally challenged pooches, he explains how to deal with the most common behavioral problems that rescued dogs take to their new homesincluding aggression, incessant barking, and separation anxiety.Much of the information will be familiar (think the Dog Whisperer), but Grim delivers an occasional surprise all his own (tequila-lime spray to discourage coprophagiaalso perfect for salad), while his sardonic, sometimes self-deprecating narrative manages to be funny, practical, and heartfelt all at the same time.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
