a good one I recently read is called "dog capers"? something like that I cant find it right now, its a memoirs but more like an adventure novel about this woman who feeds and rescues abused dogs after finding a german shepherd tied to a oil barrel on her way to work, which a huge gash in his shoulder that looked like someone had taken an axe to it, and when not a single person or organization was willing to help, it drives her to start helping these dogs herself, it is an exelent book, kept me very interested.
