From the publisher

From the award-winning author of Shelter Dogs and Rescue Cats, this beautiful animal photography book introduces a new collection of dogs and the heart-grabbing stories of transition to their forever homes.

Bold, retiring, serious, sparkling, quirky, or lovable--the dogs in Traer Scott's remarkable photographs regard us with humor, dignity, and an abundance of feeling.

Scott began photographing dogs in 2005 as a volunteer at animal shelters. Her first book, Shelter Dogs, was a runaway success and, in this follow-up, she introduces another collection of canine subjects, each with indomitable character and spirit:

  • Morrissey, a pit bull who suffered from anxiety-related behaviors brought on by shelter life until adopted by a family with four children.
  • Chloe, a young chocolate Lab mix, surrendered to a shelter by a family with allergies.
  • Gabriel and Cody, retired racing greyhounds.
  • Bingley, a dog who lost his hearing during a drug bust but was brought home by a loving family that has risen to the challenge of living with a deaf dog.

Through extended features and arresting portraits, we become better acquainted with the personalities and life stories of these courageous animals and watch as they experience the sometimes rocky and always emotional transition to new homes. For dog lovers, photography enthusiasts, and advocates for animal welfare and pet rescue, Finding Home is a poignant and eloquent reminder of the urgent need for more adoptive families as well as a loving tribute to dogs everywhere.
