At many animal shelters, older pets are often overlooked in favor of puppies and kittens. But you'll find only dogs over the age of six at the Senior Dog Sanctuary of Maryland. Mino, Jack, and Buffy are three dog roommates at the SDS, each having a unique personality but all of them in need of a new home.
For every dog at SDS, the road to release is a different one but always features rescue, recovery, rehabilitation, and ultimately release. Join Mino as he shares stories about Buffy, Jack, and the SDS staff they get ready for their forever families. Other books in the photo-packed Sanctuary Stories series include Welcome, Wombat.

My Review: This multi story book has a lot of photos in it. I really enjoyed seeing the dogs that the stories were about. It was a very easy read to get through. I think the age group 7-10 is pretty good but I think that 10 year olds might get a little board with this but me being 8 it was great. I didn't have any issues with words and I read this in two days.
The stories were really good. I loved learning about different dogs and just because a dog is older doesn't mean that they don't have love to give.
Go Into This One Knowing: Great for younger kids
