Making a Difference: With Three Paws and a Heart

This is the story of a dog who went from being a stray, to living in a shelter, to becoming a tripawd and finally being adopted and becoming an amazing certified therapy dog. Her unique experiences prove to be an inspiration and provide hope to other shelter dogs, tripawds and humans alike. Buffy makes a difference everywhere she goes and with everyone she comes in contact. Her stories of providing comfort, unconditional love, joy, compassion, support and hope apply to both canines and humans.From the infant in the NICU that had never experienced the feel of a dog's fur to the staff, visitors and patients in the hospital who look forward to having their own "Buffy time" to get them through their day - she makes a difference. From the veterans and their families who appreciate the loyalty and support that comes from an unusual source, a dog - she makes a difference.From all the children that have benefitted from Buffy's participation in reading programs to the frightened child who has to testify in court - she makes a difference.Buffy doesn't look at her therapy duties as a "job" but rather an opportunity to make a difference in someone's life.All proceeds from this book will be donated to the Tripawds Foundation.
