Dog Lost by Ingrid Lee



I read this book and, I admit, it made me tear up a little. This is the story of Cash, a pit bull puppy, that is given a very mixed lot in life. She is given love and affection (and patience) by a very special boy, then turned out on her own by a very selfish and immature father.

Cash must learn to survive in a world set against pit bulls. There is cruelty and crime in this story, but there is love and justice, too.

I recommend this book for readers 9 or 10 and older. Beware that it contains some foul language - but I believe it is an important part of the story, in this case. If you love dogs, it may be hard to read a few parts, but it is worth it in the end.
