How my dog saved my life : thirty tales of courage and compassion / by Cochran, Cate.;
"Dogs are deeply empathetic and able to understand humans in ways that surpass language. Any dog owner knows how comforting it is to have their dog nuzzle them at just the right moment. Dogs can also act in ways that are at times astonishing -- not only sensing danger, but actively finding ways to help in an emergency How My Dog Saved My Life is full of stories about clever and courageous canines -- dogs that save people from a burning building, run a great distance to bring help to the scene of a car crash, or guide rescuers across the freezing tundra to save their owner in the nick of time. These heroic rescue stories are here. But rescue goes beyond world-altering accidents -- often, it's in the everyday. Dogs and people share a mysteriously communicative bond. Dogs' unique capacity to intuit the needs of their humans and respond equips them to be trained as sophisticated service animals. Most people are familiar with seeing eye dogs, but there are myriad other types of service dogs, perhaps as many as there are people whose lives are improved by them. You'll meet some of these remarkable dogs in this book. How My Dog Saved My Life brings you stories of dogs that change the course of their owners' lives through their physical bravery and uncanny, unwavering commitment to their person. These stories will remind you why the love between humans and their dogs is so enduring and has the power to profoundly change someone's world. This book is for all dog lovers. It will pull at your heartstrings and teach you a little bit more about the animals that share our homes and lives"--Library Bound Incorporated

Life's too short / by Jimenez, Abby,author.;
"When Vanessa Price quit her job to pursue her dream of traveling the globe, she wasn't expecting to gain millions of YouTube followers who shared her joy of seizing every moment. For her, living each day to its fullest isn't just a motto. Her mother and sister never saw the age of 30, and Vanessa doesn't want to take anything for granted. But after her half sister suddenly leaves Vanessa in custody of her baby daughter, life goes from "daily adventure" to "next-level bad" (now with bonus baby vomit in hair). The last person Vanessa expects to show up offering help is the hot lawyer next door, Adrian Copeland. After all, she barely knows him. No one warned her that he was the Secret Baby Tamer or that she'd be spending a whole lot of time with him and his geriatric Chihuahua. Now she's feeling things she's vowed not to feel. Because the only thing worse than falling for Adrian is finding a little hope for a future she may never see"--Amazon.com.
