When this book was written, I suspect that there needed to be a lot of reform in animal shelters (seriously, they were just 'the pound' back then). And maybe we didn't understand a lot of things. But having taken in many rescues and strays over the years what I felt this book lacked was any kind of balance.

I read this story years ago and i found it a pretty good read. Personally I like happy endings and animal stories depending on what they are. My personal favorite is the dog.

I have always loved dogs, and when I saw this book in my fourth grade teacher's classroom, I grabbed it immediately and started reading it. It has now become my favorite book in the whole wide world!

This book is about a stray mongrel pup who has to survive on her own and face the many dangers of life. Some people are friendly to her, and some people are mean. All she wants is a home with love and care, and that's exactly what she ends up with. This is truly a heartbreaking and heartwarming story. Great job, Helen Griffiths!

I read this book as a child and it was a wonderful book.You really feel that you are there with the characters.I went on to read other books by the same author all were written with the same ability to take you to that moment and share it with the characters.Many years later I was fortunate enough to meet someone through our mutual love of horses,who became a good friend.She told me that she was a writer and yes she was Helen Griffiths.The main character of this book was a real dog who the family had adopted from the streets in Spain,I met her too and she was a fabulous personality in her own right.She died of old age surrounded by those who loved her.I feel privileged to have known her and her family,and having known what she went through in her earlier life makes it amazing that she was such an even tempered sweet natured soul.Highly recommended reading for kids (even grown up ones).A book that will definitely be on my sons' reading list

I read this book when I was a kid several times, I absolutley loved it. It kept me reading and also taught me valuable lessons. It teaches compassion- you are reading this with the perspective of a homeless abused dog. It has many adventures and is just a great book for the imagination and soul. I recommend it, as soon as my little boy can read I definatley want this book to be on his list!

This book is a wonderful epic tale with a message that tells you how strong a mother can really be when her children are on the line. It is a story that shows the ups and downs of motherhood, and childhood through a dog's perspective. One example of the ups of their lives were each puppy needed food from their mother, and every day the mother ventured out into the world to get it. Another example, but this time the downs were the mother left to get food,and the pups' got to excited and left the home. The went far away from their current position until their couriosity, and anxiety drove them so far away they couldnt find their way back. Now, this is where the proverb couriosity killed the cat, or in this case kills the dogs would come to place. Never the less, I thought that this book was wonderful, and it even made me cry at some parts. I recommend this book to anyone who is someone who loves epics, but still kind at heart.
