The dog lover unit

lessons in courage from the world's K9 cops

An up-close look at the lives and work of the brave men, women, and dogs who serve and protect citizens around the world. With insight, humour, and awe, this book reveals the feats that these human and canine teams accomplish, and the emotional and physical risks that they take for one another, and for us. Residence: Vancouver, B.C.

Rose introduces readers to police dogs and their handlers in the United States, Canada, Britain, and France, where their group's official name translates as "the dog lover unit." She went on the ride-alongs, training runs, and other challenges that these courageous people and canines face on a daily basis. Now Rose reveals the feats that these human and canine teams accomplish, and the emotional and physical risks that they take for one another, and for us.
