This is the extraordinary story of one man who has driven more than 1 million miles to rescue thousands of dogs from hunger, abuse and neglect and give them a second chance at life and love.For years, Greg Mahle struggled to keep the last of his family-run restaurants afloat in Ohio. When it finally closed, he was broke and unsure what to do next. Then a stranded van-load of puppies changed his life forever.Join journalist Peter Zheutlin as he travels with Greg from Ohio to the Gulf Coast on his Rescue Road Trips to bring hard-luck dogs from the deep South to loving \"forever families\" up north looking to adopt a pet, with the help of many selfless volunteers along the way. From Houston's impoverished Fifth Ward--where thousands of strays roam the streets--and high-kill animal shelters in Louisiana, to joyous scenes of adopters embracing their new pups in the Northeast, Rescue Road is full of heart: an inspiring story about the unique bond between dogs and humans, and how going the extra mile can make a life-changing difference for these loyal canines-and for us all.A heartwarming, awe-inspiring story of how one man can impact so many lives, human and puppy alike. Fans of Marley and Me, Oogy: The Dog Only A Family Could Love, and You Had Me At Woof will be inspired and touched by this story.What readers are saying about Rescue Road:\"I stand in awe of those who can do this kind of rescue work, for their persistence, compassion and willingness to get dirty in the service of animals.\"\"a heartwarming \u0026amp; eye opening journey into the world of dog rescue.\"\"I highly recommend this book if you are looking to restore your faith in humanity.\"\"a heart-warming story that reaffirms there are many compassionate people who work tirelessly to save dogs.\"What reviewers are saying about Rescue Road:\"An unabashedly sentimental and affecting portrait of a modern-day animal-loving hero.\" - Kirkus\"a canine caravan with heart and soul…\" - Teresa Rhyne, author of the #1 NYT bestseller The Dog Lived (And So Will I) \"Heartwarming doesn't suffice to describe it… restores faith in humanity.\" - Alexandra Horowitz, author of Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know\"A tender, inspiring homage…\" - Matthew Gilbert, author of Off the Leash: A Year at the Dog Park\"Inspiring and riveting new book...a must-read...\" - The Bark\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Zheutlin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52368575987994,"sku":"9781492614074","price":107.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2699\/9322\/files\/81O8vG66GPL._SY522.jpg?v=1781755427","url":"https:\/\/medicampus.store\/products\/rescue-road","provider":"medicampus.store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
