<p>Saving Sadie and Sasha is a funny, suspenseful and emotionally powerful look at what it takes to work and volunteer in the animal rescue world. In these pages you'll find the absorbing story of Sadie and Sasha's complicated journey from abandoned dogs to beloved pets. It wasn't easy, and the outcome was never certain. Part memoir, part how-to, and part call to action, Saving Sadie and Sasha is both eye opening and joy filled. Jones weaves her personal path to becoming a foster parent with a broader examination of how the best animal rescue organizations operate, and she spikes her narrative with plenty of humor. The story of Sadie and Sasha proves that damaged dogs can recover and heal, and in the process, heal us. They won't be perfect, but then again, neither are we. What Others Have to Say: "Laura Jones tells an inspiring story of relentless hope, unconditional love, and how dogs and people find their home. It's a story that made me laugh, cry, and cheer. A great book!" Lynne Cox, best-selling author of the memoirs Swimming to Antarctica and Grayson. "If you love dogs and good writing, you have to read this book." Pam Wahl, Publisher of Virginia Maryland Dog Magazine. "Totally enjoyed the book." Susanne Kogut, Executive Director of the PetCo Foundation</p>
