As mascots, messengers, rat-catchers and even spies, animals have long marched into war alongside servicemen and women. Dogs, horses, cats (even birds, camels and elephants) have saved thousands of lives through instinct, intelligence, courage and devotion. Like Rip, a dog who searched through ruins during the Blitz bombings to find survivors, or Sergeant Stubby, a dog who caught a spy. Or the pigeons who braved hurricanes, hawks and even snipers to help during WWII...
Engaging, uplifting and deeply moving, Rip the Rescue Dog tells the stories of these brave, silent heroes with sensitivity and gentle humour.
Black and white illustrations throughout.
