Pick of the Litter: Oogy The Dog Only a Family Could Love

Steve Dale’s Pet World Pick of the Litter: Hear an interview with Larry Levin, author of “Oogy: The Dog Only a Family Could Love.”

I think any family would love Oogy.

Oogy – like many “Pit Bulls” – has been the victim his entire life. As a bait dog, his face was nearly torn off when he was found by police during a drug bust. There was no one to pay for the life-saving effort, but still a veterinarian performed 3 1/2 hours of surgery. Oogy soon came to live with author Levin.

Lots of lessons in this book, lessons about adoption, lessons about the will to to live…Turns out, by the way, Oogy is a Dogo Argentino and not really a Pit Bull.
