Ken Foster likes what are commonly called pit bulls, those ugly dogs with the bad reputations. I didn't know it, but apparently there is a great deal of interest in fighting pit bulls against other dogs and animals. So pit bulls come in for a lot of abuse and neglect when their vile owners decide they have outlived their usefulness. These dogs end up on the street or abandoned to shelters. This book is about Ken Foster and his encounters with stray, lost and abused dogs. It was quite enlightening to read if you are not familiar with the plight of these poor dogs. We humans come off as a pretty heartless and disgusting lot in our neglect and abuse of creatures that give their whole loyalty and love to us. Whatever you do, don't get a pet unless you are willing to consider your pet as part of your family and not just as a piece of property or a commodity. And if you are one of these soulless bastards who uses dogs to fight in the arenas for gambling and amusement, well, then shame, shame, shame on you.
