Rescue Road: One Man, Thirty Thousand Dogs, and a Million Miles on the Last Hope Highway by Peter Zheutlin
5.0
I hated that this book ended. I wanted to learn more about Greg, Keri, Tommy, Tom, Kathy and all of the other folks who keep this rescue operation going from Ohio to Louisiana to Texas back to Louisiana and across the southeast until Gotcha Days in Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. And I'm not even an animal person.
To be honest, not sure how I ended up with this book recommended to me but it's wonderful. From small town Zanesville, Ohio where we meet Greg, Adella, Connor and Tommy to Keri in Louisiana and Kathy and Tom outside Houston. This truly is a miracle network. As Greg said, hours ago, these dogs would have died and they were given new life in their forever homes. It's amazing and somewhat frightening to realize how many dogs need problems and that even an improved euthanasia rate is still a heartbreakingly large number of animals dying
I'm so glad the author adopted Albie from Labs4Rescue which led to the article in Parade and then this book. I felt as if I got to know these people and their dogs. I wish I had space to adopt because so many animals need homes.
