Karen Davison grew up in Bedfordshire, England. She has been both an avid reader and a lover of animals since early childhood. When she was eight, the family got their first dog, Scamp, whose great character started Karen's lifelong devotion to dogs.

Since qualifying in Canine Psychology in 2001, she has worked as a professional dog trainer and canine behaviourist. She went on to study Wolf Ecology in 2009 and was lucky enough to spend time with the wolves at the UK Wolf Conservation Trust in Reading.

Her first publication, The Perfect Companion: Understanding, Training and Bonding with your Dog, a comprehensive guide to canine psychology, training and problem solving, was published in June 2012 and won an IndiePENdants' award for quality.

I have tried to find the person who did, but have been unsuccessful, so I am unable to give permission. However, the quote was obviously written by someone who cares deeply about rescue dogs, so I feel sure that they wouldn't object to you using it!

Hi Annette,
Many thanks for your message. Unfortunately, that quote wasn't written by me, although I am often accredited for it. I have tried to find the original author, but have been unsuccessful, so I am unable to give permission as I don't own the copyright.
Not the answer you were hoping for, sorry!
I love the idea of a children's book promoting rescue, good luck with it.
All the best, Karen.(less)
