The Right Dog for the Job

I’m not going to lie; I judged this book by its cover. The Right Dog for the Job by Dorothy Hinshaw Patent has a cover with an adorable golden retriever on the cover; it was pretty hard to pass up. In this non-fictional story, the author introduces us to a puppy, and takes us through his “childhood” and training process to help those with disabilities. The text is rich, and the real-life pictures are very entertaining and cute to look at. Not to mention, this would be a great book to read to your class for them to learn about people with disabilities, and how dogs could be a great help to some.
