Lost Souls: Found! Inspiring Stories about Pit Bulls, by Kyla Duffy and Lowrey Mumford (Happy Tails
Books, 2012 (PB), 144 pages, $12.95)
This little book, just 144
pages long is long on pit bull rescue stories – 46-plus tales of rescued pit
bulls from 11 rescue organizations.
What a Great Idea!
Kyla Duffy and Lowrey
Mumford have a unique idea going – that of using real-life rescued pit bulls
from several rescues to tell their stories. Duffy and Mumford’s Happy Tails Books was founded in
2009 to encourage adoption and raise money for pet rescue organizations. To
date, they have donated more than $45,000 to their partner rescue
organizations.
Looking for a New Favorite Breed?
Books in the series include
not only pit bulls but also Labs,
Sammies, Corgis, Bassets, Northern breeds,
Pets with Disabilities, Cockers, Beagles, Bostons, Doxeys,
Chi’s, Boxers, GSDs,
Danes, Goldens,
Herding breeds,
Pugs – and I’m sure I have missed some!
Some stories are a paragraph
in length but most are 2-4 pages – just the right length to take a break to
read about an inspiring dog and his adopted family. From “Passed up Pup” to
“’Precious’ Pit” to “Nothing a Cheeseburger Can’t Fix” and including several
Pit Stops, those one paragraph shorties, Lost
Souls: Found! will entice you to read more than one title in the series.
Caveat:
DogEvals purchased this book for review but now we want to read several others
(the Labs and Goldens, especially). You can find the series on Amazon.com
