What a touching memoir about a rescue doggy. The family thought that this dog was a pit bull but it turns out he is a Dogo. Oogy was used as a bait dog in dog fights when he was a little puppy. It's horrifying that this still happens and Oogy's case is not like many (he was rescued by a family willing to put in the time to rehabilitate him). Many of these dogs are euthanized because they are so aggressive. I will say that reading this book opened my eyes and does point out that pit bulls and other similar dogs have an unfair prejudice against them in many cases. I see that it can be nurture vs. nature now.
I want a puppy!!! :)
