    About this ebook

    Swansea Jack, the Labrador who saved more than 25 people from drowning.

    Max, the police German shepherd who chased and caught two convicted criminals.

    Shadow, the Rottweiler that saved three young children from a pair of hungry wolves.

    These are just a few of the inspiring true stories in this collection of dog tales from around the world. Included are some astonishing first-hand accounts by people who have witnessed quick thinking and resourceful dogs in action.

    From trained lifeguard dogs and guide dogs to loyal family pets and unnamed strays, each of these courageous canines has shown true heroism – sometimes in the most surprising of ways. Heart-melting, dramatic and often deeply moving, Dog Heroes proves why dogs can save and change lives, and are truly our best friends.
