Rating:  Summary: Sherry's "Everyday Heroes" is splendid- cover to cover! Review: "Everyday Heroes" is filled with wonderful true stories of Guiding Eyes for the Blind's special creatures; those who have become successful guide dogs for the blind, and those who decided on a career change, be it drug sniffing, assistance, or therapy dogs. As the blind partner of a guide dog featured in the book (my second guide, Merlin, who has since passed away), I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Sherry for including our story in this lovely book- it is truly a tribute to my faithful friend. Anyone who loves dogs exhibits a level of compassion which is sadly uncommon in our world today- read this book, and feel that compassion within its pages.

Rating:  Summary: Heroes Indeed! Review: I'm a sucker for stories about dogs, whether fiction or non-fiction. If you also fall into that category, you'll enjoy "Everyday Heroes." This short book consists of brief "biographies" of dogs who provide great service and love to their masters. All of the dogs in these true stories were raised by volunteers from a great organization called Guiding Eyes for the Blind. Some of the dogs are not quite suited to life as guide dogs, but are perfect for crime fighting work. All of these dogs are truly heroes in every sense of the word.

Rating:  Summary: A wonderful and sensitive insight into some very special dog Review: Sherry Warshauer has written a wonderful book that gives a glimpse into the every day life of some extradonary dogs. She includes a wide range of uses of these specially trained animals from Guiding Dogs to drug and arson sniffing and special needs dogs. She also beautifully discribes the role of the puppy raisers as well. She has illustrated the very real need for these special creatures and made raising them even more meaningful for me and my family.
