Be Their Voice: An Anthology for Rescue

by Rogena Mitchell-Jones (Editor), Pat Adams-Wright, Keith R. Baker

An anthology containing 42 stories and poems by 26 contributors spread over 300+ pages (85+K words) about cats, dogs, horses, pets, and all things companion animals. Proceeds go to animal rescue. This particular volume will help an organization called Reggie's Friends Animal Rescue (Houston, TX.)

About Reggie's Friends:
Reggie's Friends was founded out of our love for helping dogs. Living in a city of 1.2 million homeless animals, rarely a day went by when we didn't see a dog in need of help. Instead of just wanting to do something, we figured out how to do something! Reggie's Friends is dedicated to the health and welfare of dogs in and around the greater Houston, TX area. We focus our attention on helping dogs who have been abandoned in boarding facilities, shelter dogs, and street dogs find loving, forever families. We also believe in helping people with their pets by hosting low-cost vaccination and microchipping events. We live and love by our motto #streetlife2sweetlife!
