Buddi is an undefeated greyhound racer who makes a rash decision when he hears about another undefeated greyhound he’s scheduled to race. Buddi has nothing but contempt for families, but he puts himself up for adoption and leaves the dog-track and the only life he’s ever known just to keep his winning streak intact. On his way out of the track, however, Buddi discovers he’s not fooling anyone and that, instead of retiring as a champion, he’s seen as creeping away like a coward. Much to his surprise, Buddi discovers he loves his new family and his new life and he soon finds himself forced to decide between returning to the track to regain his honor as a champion or losing his new family!
Follow Buddi in his first of many adventures in a world as new to him as it is familiar to us. Buddi is based on the author’s beloved pet, who found his way into her home and heart through a national non-profit greyhound adoption organization. In purchasing this charity-supporting book, you will directly contribute to finding loving homes for other retired racing greyhounds like Buddi.
With a strong, positive message and large, brightly-colored illustrations, The Adventures of Buddi The Greyhound: Finding A Family is destined to become a classic.
