Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Retells the true adventure of Max who becomes lost and severely injured but makes his way over rugged terrain reaching a cabin where he is befriended and rushed to a vet. Almost totally emaciated from his ordeal, Max's chances for recovery are slim. Still, his indomitable will bolsters him against all obstacles. A tag with his owner's telephone number allows the kindly strangers to notify the owners of Max's condition. Helped by several specialists and the devotion of his family, Max eventually recovers. Pepper's Ordeal is the true story of another of Kyra Wayne's beloved Dobermans. An open gate leads Pepper to a sinister character and rusty cages full of raging pitbulls. After some shrewd detective work, Kyra and a pair of courageous boys rescue Pepper from a dogfight training farm, but not without an encounter with the woman with 'one long earring'.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Max, cause celebre, a true story
What would you do if you went on vacation and your dog disappeared? Just disappeared into nowhere. First here, then gone.

What would you do if you were a dog and endured a terrible calamity, resulting in horrible injuries and near starvation?

This is the story of a family, a dog, and how the two got back together. It is the story of survival, endurance, abiding love, and a will to live. It is heart-rending, but not heart-breaking. The complete title hints to the reader ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for dog lovers & kids
I read this book as a little girl (I think it might have come from some kind of book club) in the late '70's/ early '80's and the power of the story has stayed with me since then. This is a wonderful and moving tale of a dog who faces incredible odds and a potentially life-threatening injury to try and find his family. It's a wonderful story for kids, for doberman lovers, and dog lovers. A bit of a tear-jerker at times, but well worth it!
