Leo In China: A Greyhound's 2nd Tale - Paperback

by Cindy Victor (Author)

In this sequel to Leo: A Greyhound's Tale, a retired racer called Leo must exercise his wits to survive the ego-shattering and life-threatening challenges posed by a menacing Rottweiler, a disdainful Pekingese, a seeming reincarnation of Al Capone, a dream visit gone horribly awry, and the Curse of the Ming Vase. Worst of all is his self loathing when in a moment of extreme frustration he is unkind. Lee Livingood, author of Retired Racing Greyhounds for Dummies, said of Leo in China: "Leo is back. And I'm delighted. . . . It's been too long since we first met Leo, and I forgot how much I missed him." Dr. Rodger Barr, veterinarian and founder of Northern Lights Greyhound Adoption, gave Leo in China "two opposable thumbs up for capturing the special essence of all dogs and what they do for their humans." And Rory S. Goreé, president of Greyhound Pets of America, commented: "From cover to cover I found myself rooting for Leo, laughing, giggling, and thoroughly entertained."
