"Lassie, go home. Ginny is the new wonder dog for those who love heartwarming, heroic canines." -- Kirkus Reviews

"There is an angel living in Long Island....The beauty of Ginny's rescues is that each is directed toward an animal desperately in need -- disabled, neglected, abused or on the narrow edge of survival." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune

"A true, heartwarming story about a dog who gave her owner a new lease on life and taught him how to love again...Endearing and unforgettable." -- Library Journal

Philip Gonzalez and Ginny live on Long Island, New York. Leonore Fleischer is the coauthor of The Dog Who Rescues Cats and lives with five cats of her own in upstate New York.
