Terrified Cent Jane; brassy but filthy Dixie Lou; tough-guy Dingo; and the crazed, nippy jester, Walter Joe. They are not your average cute-and-cared-for, well-trained pups - they are shelter dogs. Scared, intense, so painfully shy that they can't look you in the eye, they have languished so long without attention they are slipping into a dark place, and soon won't have the ability to bond with people.

Rescuing Cent Jane is the story of her adventures with these exceptional pet dogs, from working at a shelter, aiding dozens of pets or animals discover that the right person can give them love, desire, and a complete new lease of life, to implementing two rescue pet dogs of her own and fostering six more.
