Finding Home

Dixie didn't know what happened. The wire cut deep into her leg. She was alone and scared, unsure if anyone would find her. By the time her leg was finally treated, the veterinary staff didn't know if they could save it. They took a risk, performing their first-ever skin graft on a dog. Left without a home, the young pup needed a safe place to heal--that's when she met the Carter family.

Cora, Wren, and Hazel had been begging to foster a dog. They'd cared for countless kittens, but never a dog. When they finally convinced their mom, and brought Dixie home, something magical happened. But there was one rule the girls knew they couldn't break: foster dogs don't stay forever.

As Dixie's leg heals, so does her heart. She learns to trust again, to play, to love. But healing means she's ready for adoption. The Carters will have to say goodbye, even though it feels like ripping their family apart.

Can a dog who's lost everything ever find her way home?

Based on the true story of Dixie, a rambunctious red heeler who refused to give up on a forever family.

Perfect for readers ages 8-12 and animal lovers of all ages. Fans of Because of Winn-Dixie and A Dog's Purpose will fall in love with Dixie as they join her on this life-changing journey.
