Beschreibung des Verlags
Maggie the dog is a walking miracle.
With her boundless energy, inquisitive snout and huge smile, Instagram sensation Maggie is the most recognisable rescue dog online. But her warm, playful nature masks a traumatic past. Maggie was shot 17 times and subjected to cruelty and torture, before being rescued from Lebanon and brought to live in the UK by a determined and loving young woman called Kasey. As Maggie struggled to overcome her injuries, every day was a fight to rehabilitate her. But Kasey was convinced that what she had found in this little dog was someone just as determined to live and love as she was. This is the incredible story of their journey together: a story of hope, unconditional love and never giving up.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Animal behaviorist Carlin debuts with a moving hard-luck tale about Maggie, a mixed-breed dog rescued from Lebanon. Found in Beirut by a local dog rescuer, Maggie was a street dog with gouged out eyes and a cut-off ear; she had also been shot numerous times and perhaps used for target practice. With the help of a British rescue group, Maggie was brought to the U.K. There, she was adopted by Carlin who describes in great detail the challenges of bringing a dog to England, in terms of both flight costs and the dog's comfort on a 2,000-mile plane ride, and details how she integrated Maggie into her life as the owner of a doggie day care in Brighton. Before long, the exuberant dog became a local celebrity, and Carlin recites a litany of Maggie's exploits: she visited local schools, nursing homes, and a university, and participated in a dog-walking club for students who missed their family pets. But it was when Carlin set up an Instagram handle for Maggie that her fame took off (she currently has 465,000 followers). Despite Maggie's grim start in life, this is purely a feel-good story: Maggie "takes everything in her stride, because she's had to handle so much in such a short amount of time." Animal lovers will be in heaven.
