Another good dog : one family and fifty foster dogs / Cara Sue Achterberg.
A warm and entertaining memoir about what happens when you foster fifty dogs in less than two years--and how the dogs save you as much as you save them. When Cara felt her teenaged children slipping away and saw an empty nest on the horizon, she decided the best way to fill that void was with dogs--lots of them--and so her foster journey began. In 2015, her Pennsylvania farm became a haven for Operation Paws for Homes.
