By the Author of A Dog Like Ralph & The Diary of a Human and a Dog. For the first four years of her life Peggy was one of the thousands of greyhounds who are forced to race - long dogs born to run as fast as they can to make money for those who own them. Once she was no longer winning she became useless to the industry. Fortunately for Peggy, however, she was one of the luckier ex-racing dogs, and was placed in the care of a greyhound rescue charity. In rescue she waited another year for her forever home. Clare spotted her picture on the rescue shelter's web page and immediately knew Peggy was the dog to join her family. And so, Peggy became the trusted canine companion to their other dog, the very nervous, sort-of-greyhound, Ralph. In this book, Peggy narrates her own story, taking us from the harrowing days on the track, to the life she now has living with Ralph, and not forgetting Lucy - the little dog with the teeth. This is a story about the bonds between dogs, and the many ways in which humans influence their lives. It is a book suitable for dog-loving older teens... but will be enjoyed by anyone who has ever loved a rescue dog.
