Product Description Penelope thought moving to a new neighborhood would be exciting, but she didn't expect to be bullied because she was different. She befriends Chloe, a homeless puppy who is also bullied for being different. When Chloe is taken from Penelope to a dog shelter, Penelope must find a way to rescue her new friend. Will Chloe and Penelope be able to change their bullies minds and save each other? About the Author Andre Gatling has had a long and successful career in the entertainment business as a stand-up comedian, among other roles. But his real love in life is rescuing and training an array of animals, particularly pit bulls. Andre has spent well over 25 years working with animals and much more time growing up around pit bulls. He realized he had a unique approach to changing the behavior of aggressive dogs from his personal experiences with dogs and his time working with quarantined dogs in animal shelters. In his own words, Andre will tell you, "Aggression in a dog is similar to aggression in a human. We're both scared of what we don't understand, and our need to protect leads to aggression. Changing that aggression in a dog is more complex because the dog doesn't speak English, so I had to learn to speak dog." Andre lives in Potomac Falls, Virginia with his two pit bulls, Chloe and Jordan, both of whom have American Kennel Club (AKC) accreditations. Chloe who Andre calls a Ball Addict has an AKC Canine Good Citizenship Title, while Jordan who he calls the Bone Collector achieved her AKC Star Puppy Award. These accolades help Andre's advocacy for pit bulls to help change the perception of the breed.
