Why read it?
1 author picked Another Good Dog as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Fostering dogs is an important part of dog rescue, and Achterberg perfectly captures the joy and heartbreak of fostering. Her devotion to dogs became her family’s shared passion, which beautifully demonstrates how when we rescue dogs, they rescue us in return.

Fostering saves lives, and Another Good Dog is a brilliant testimony to this fact.
From Teresa's list on rescue dogs.
