Description
|
|
|
|
In her memoir You Had Me at Woof, Julie Klam shared the secrets of happiness she learned as an occasionally frazzled but always devoted owner of Boston terriers. Here, with the same humor and poignancy, she offers real-life stories about how rescuing troubled dogs can also help us save ourselves. Klam describes finding a home for the world's sweetest pit bull, fostering a photogenic special-needs terrier, and diving under a train to save an injured stray in New Orleans, and finds that their struggles gave her new perspective on her own problems. A hilarious and moving testament to the powerful bond between people and dogs, this is a book for anyone whose life has been changed by an animal. "Julie Klam is like Proust, if he wrote about dogs instead of madeleines, wrote in English instead of French, had better hair—and wrote exceptionally hilarious books that you can't help reading all at once."—Patricia Marx
