Home Sweet Home: Arkansas Rescue Dogs & Their Stories

Dogs don’t care what you look like, what you do for a living, or how old you are. They’re most interested in what’s in your heart. Sadly, all dogs aren’t treated they way they deserve to be. Many suffer abuse, or roam the streets and woods alone. With the hope of encouraging adoption and fostering of rescue dogs, and generosity of time and treasure to local shelters and organizations, Home Sweet Home shares the images and stories of 25 Arkansas rescue dogs. Inspired by her own furry family members, author Grace Vest shares how a simple choice to adopt can rescue canines and humans alike.

Through 25 beautiful images and stories, you’ll meet dogs like Frankie, the first dog trained to detect thyroid cancer, found in a shopping center parking lot in Little Rock; Rocky, a shining soul found in a New Orleans attic following Hurricane Katrina; and Teddy, surrendered by three families, who found his match in a woman who depends on him to calm her during panic attacks.
