I find not that much cute what that cute puppy faced after her rescue from that cliff.
I mean, TV interviews with the rescuers, and the foster family ? Bleahh...

Either I chose wrong, or the most (if no all) of these short stories with puppies that are fostered by the Petersons are only with girl-dogs.

Lizzie and her younger brother, Charles, are in elementary school. Their family, the Petersons, have a puppy named Buddy plus they foster dogs and help them find homes.

Lizzie is on a hike with an environmental club when she sees a puppy alone of a cliff. The group leader calls 911 and Lizzie calls her father, who is a fireman. Help arrives and the Havanese puppy, who Lizzie names Angel, is rescue. The Petersons foster Angel until they can find her a home. When the rescue is covered on the local news, there are lots of people wanting to adopt her.

Though this book is a quick read and directed at elementary-aged children, I found it entertaining. There is a learning experience and a puppy tip at the end. It is written in third person perspective and first person from Angel's point of view. It is the forty-sixth in the Puppy Place series, which currently has 66 books in the series, and works as a stand alone.

Love angle is the best it is so good
That it is sad that owners are letting them lose and other people find them are sad because you should not let your dog lose at all it is not safe and sad.
