![]() ![]() ![]() If you’ve been following my blog for awhile, or read any of the posts in the “Dog” category, you’ll know that we’ve fostered several wonderful rescue pit bulls, so this is what initially caught my attention and made me get the CD (although I thought I’d ordered the book from the library.) Later it emerged that he was a Dogo, a type of dog bred in Argentina to hunt mountain lion and boar. It was assumed that Oogy, as he become known, was a pit bull. When police raided the house some days later, Oogy, although horrifically injured, was somehow still clinging to life. A bait dog is exactly what it sounds like–a dog that is put as bait with a dog being trained to fight and the fighting dog is then encouraged/made to kill the bait dog. It’s the story about a dog that was rescued after being used when a puppy as a bait dog and, rather than killed by either the dog being trained to fight or the owner of the dog as usually happens, was tossed in a cage and left, barely alive. On the latest occasion, I picked up Oogy, the dog only a family could love, by Larry Levin. ![]() I’ve become addicted to books on CD while traveling between Cleveland and Naperville (or any other long trip.) There’s nothing better than a good book to make the time fly and since I can’t safely read while driving, audio will have to do. ![]()
