Following the success of A Dog a Day and Old Dogs, Sally Muir returns with an adorable collection of beautiful rescue dog portraits that will melt even the coldest of hearts.

Several years ago, Sally Muir began a Facebook project, posting dog art daily, which became the best-selling book A Dog a Day. Through the project, she was introduced to endless people and their dogs, and the distinct personalities and complex emotions that owners attribute to them. This was followed by Old Dogs, where Sally asked the public to send in photos of their elderly canines. She was drawn to the tales behind their greying whiskers, and so the natural next step was rescue dogs with their eventful life stories.

Rescue Dogs is a beautiful collection of lovable hounds with colourful histories and expressive faces. From Mr Bojangles, who was rescued after being hit by a car, to Molly, who found a new lease of life after being rescued from a shelter at age 15, Rescue Dogs will tug at the heartstrings and leave you with a profound sense of optimism for life, new beginnings, and kindness. This is the perfect gift for your dog-loving friends, or for yourself to enjoy some mindful moments flicking through delightful, heart-warming canine portraits.
