Hugger to the Rescue
Grade 2-5-An interesting story of the training and work done by Newfoundlands, a breed of rescue dogs that has natural lifesaving instincts. Susie and Murphy Foley of Bigfork, Montana, raise and train Newfies and have started a volunteer organization called "Black Paws Search, Rescue & Avalanche Dogs." The care, training, and uniforms for these big, lovable canines are described in Patent's conversational, anecedote-filled narrative. Mu?oz's good-quality, full-color photographs are attractive and informative. Children will enjoy seeing these hard working animals in action.Carol Kolb Phillips, The Library, East Brunswick, NJCopyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.
