Going Home

'McNish weaves a magical tale of hope, disappointment, love, loyalty and friendship - all in a wonderful read that'll keep you captivated from start to finish.' Dogs Monthly

'Dog books can easily be formulaic and twee, but Going Home is a fresh 'buddy movie' told with smart repartee.' Nicolette Jones, Sunday Times

'This book is a must for animal lovers ... amusing and heart-warming.'  The School Librarian

At the Happy Paws Rescue Centre, every pet dreams of one thing: going home.

But Ralph, Mitch, Bessie and Fred are the no-hopers: dogs so difficult or troublesome they aren't expected to ever go home.

Ralph's face is scarred. Bessie can't stand to be touched. Mitch can't stop chasing cats and Fred . . . has just given up. Who'd want to adopt any of them instead of a cute little puppy?

But when Happy Paws reviews its policy of never putting an unwanted pet down, time starts running out for the dogs. Can they prove that they're worth a second chance? Will there be hope for the no-hopers after all?
