"Paw & Order is about the human-animal bond drama that takes place on the streets of NYC. Society wants to return to the `good shepherd' ethic for animals, and NYC has special agents with the ASPCA that have become the protective stewards for its animals. Despite the crimes and neglect that certain less conscious people foist upon unfortunate animals, people like Tina Salaks work with NYC's animal lovers, who rescue and restore and, hopefully, rehome them."
Book Description
Paw and Order is a sure bet to create the animal book buzz of 2008. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad,but always vivid, these twelve fascinating stories are filled with all the variety, color, and tempo of life in New York City, these true vignettes of animal jeopardy and rescue are drawn from the files of ASPCA officer Tina Salaks and take the reader through a full gamut of human--and animal--emotions with surprise endings, and linger in the mind's eye long after the book has been put down.
