Green knows, his life began during those dog days in the summer of 2005. From the very beginning he had to fight to survive, and now, he tells his story. In this book Green, a Golden Retriever, from Mesa, Arizona tells his touching story of survival. Green tells of his rescue at less than two weeks of age and of the volunteers that saved him. He tells of his brothers, sisters and of two other litt
ers of puppies that were rescued that summer. He also tells of the medical condition that threatened his life and of the treatments that saved him. Green tells all this with the help of his foster/forever Dad, Paul Lockinger. Green and Paul added seventy five full color puppy pictures to this book. For some that have read the book it has been hard to decide which is better, the story, or the pictures. One thing is for sure though; this is a double delight. Grab a tissue before you start reading; I have been told it can be a tear jerker. This book makes a perfect gift for anyone interested in animal rescue, animal stories, dogs, and especially Golden Retrievers. It will be enjoyed by men, women, and children of all ages.

Within days of having been rejected by their mothers many puppies had perished. Bonny, a volunteer for a Golden Retriever Rescue Organization, appeared out of nowhere with a basket just big enough for the remaining nine puppies. It was July 31, 2005 and Bonny was there to save us, but she could not do it alone. It takes a dedicated group of volunteers to rescue a litter of puppies. I was about to find out if they were up to the task.
