In the first book in this new series, golden retriever Ginger, born in a puppy mill, endures several unfortunate encounters with humans before landing with a responsible owner. In book two, German shepherd Buddy tells the story, based on actual events, about her rigorous training as the first guide dog. Pleasing black-and-white illustrations (and in Buddy some archival photos), breed history, and rescue information enhance each story.
