 Did nothing for me......... February 11, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Not bad, as far as dog books go, just didn't make me want to keep reading. Foster did not hold my interest so he's 1 author I can scratch off my list.
It's OK, just not as good as others I have read. This book took me a while to read through because I kept putting it down and getting back to it later. Oh well.

Ken Foster manages to be poignant, moving, powerful, and hysterically funny all in the same book. The Dogs Who Found Me creates a strong voice for those animals - our 'best friends' - who have been lost and abandoned, and who are utterly dependant on our mercy. Ken pulls no punches - he tells the sad, hard truths with complete honesty - but he also makes your heart soar with joy. Read this book... you'll never forget it.

Not only are the dogs lucky by being "found" by Ken Foster, he is also lucky for having them in his life, no matter how short a time. This is a wonderful book that shows the compassion, understanding and bonding that connects a human being with a canine.
The dogs who found him... that "who" just gives him away. September 21, 2007

The grammar error in the title shows me that this book is written by a true dog lover. A charming collection of writings, it shows a man making a life for abandoned animals in the face of catastrophe, health trouble and money worries. He really does concentrate on the dogs... what they do, where they go, what they like, what they need. Most of all, this is a book about who they love. The author is overwhelmed at times, though he knows he's chosen (or been chosen by) his own troubles. I have misgivings about pit bulls as a breed, and it's clear that Foster is completely aware of the dangers himself, but what a lovely dog family he's assembled. Highly recommended, but only for those of us who see animals for the fascinating, complicated characters they can be.

All three of our pets found themselves in the frightening position of having been left behind (One in AZ, one in MA and the third in NH). How they found their way into our hearts and home is miraculous! Consequently, we have a very real fondness for the topic of this book. It's an excellent story and was packaged to arrive in excellent condition!The Dogs Who Found Me: What I've Learned from Pets Who Were Left Behind
