stories.
Doghero.com features the book Canine Courage: The Heroism of Dogs,

"Canine Courage includes dozens of these stories and retells them is a
straightforward, entertaining, and refreshingly unsentimental
manner...Canine Courage would be an enjoyable read simply for the
retelling of the stories of dog heroics. Add to that the author's
examination of why dogs act heroically and it becomes a
thought-provoking journey. - "Paws in Review" DogWorld, August 2003,

"I chuckled, I laughed out loud, I marveled, and I shed a few tears
reading this book." -- Marilyn Runyan, Ruff Notes
