Hero Dogs: Remarkable Stories of Courage and Devotion

“This book is sure to uplift anyone with a warm heart, particularly if you’re a dog lover”. Scottish Field

“A wonderful book of canine courage.” Dogs Today

“This beautifully illustrated book is full of moving and inspirational stories of gallant canines.” Kennel Gazette

The author, Janet Menzies, is donating all royalties from the first impression of this book to Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, and supporting this remarkable charity is reason enough to buy it. The ‘Best Friends in Burgandy Coats’ have been helping deaf people for over 30 years and their behaviour and the support they offer changes lives in extraordinary ways. The charity has paved more than 1,600 hearing dogs since it began in 1982, and there is an increased demand for these exceptional canines. The book does not just focus on hearing dogs. There are chapters on pet dogs and their ‘Lassie’ moments, search-and-rescue dogs, dogs honoured for their bravery on the front line. From dogs awarded the Dickin medal for services rendered at the World Trade Centre site to those which helped after the Haiti earthquake, it is hard not to feel awed by these special animals and their silent heroics –The Field

As well as tear-jerking and admirable true-life tales gracing the book’s pages, there are lots of clear and colourful accompanying images… A brilliant tribute to some amazing dogs which makes you appreciate just how wonderful and unique these animals are. 10 out of 10 –Your Dog
