Bo and Rico are two puppies
who meet at a pet store. The puppies are dognapped from the pet store by two
goons. Realizing they are in danger, Bo and Rico must work together to escape
the dognappers. After their escape, Bo and Rico find themselves scared and alone
on the mean city streets. They are rescued by a streetwise stray named Tank.
Tank takes the puppies under his wing and teaches them how to survive on the
streets. Bo and Rico embark on several adventures including avoiding the local
Animal Control officer, Jimmy; several run-ins with a pack of dogs led by a
stray named Mongrel; and rescuing a beautiful lost Poodle named Pearl. Through
it all, Bo and Rico form an incredible friendship that will last a
lifetime.
"When I
started reading this book, I already had an idea formed in my head. I mean the
book summary is quite detailed and it provides a very good outline of the story.
I mean I already knew that Bo & Rico are going to be ‘dognapped’, they’ll
escape, meet Tank, get in trouble with Mongrel and Jimmy, rescue pearl and will
emerge as the best buds at the end of the story. However, the book still managed
to surprise me. The author takes you through a lot of emotions – amusing, gloomy
and thrilling – it a full rollercoaster ride. The ‘adventures’ that Bo and Rico
get into actually teaches them a lot about themselves, each other and working
together. And though Bo and Rico are definitely takes the center stage and the
spotlight is on them, Tank too is sure to make his own place in your
heart.
This is the third book that I have read by this author
and all three of them are about dogs. I think that being a veterinarian; she
really understands dogs and her true passion for these animals are reflected in
her books. The best part is that this could be used to teach kids a lot about
finding their own strength, about working together and about
friendship.
I loved it and you will too… "
