Sandy Paws: Dogs and Cats on Delmarva

by Nancy Sakaduski (Editor), D.M. Domosea, Adrianne C. Lasker

Whether they pilfer your socks or steal your heart, dogs and cats are joyful parts of our lives. In Sandy Paws you’ll meet a cat who thinks he’s a dog, a dog who thinks she’s royalty, and people who are amused, confused, and consoled by their pets. Whether they are rescues or rescuers, these dogs and cats will win you over with skills that range from matchmaking to crime solving and from heart mending to life changing.

A collection of short stories and light verse about dogs and cats at the beach. Stories are set in Rehoboth Beach, Lewes, Bethany Beach, Ocean City (MD), Cape May, Chincoteague, and other seaside towns in the Delmarva region.
