One
at a Time: A Week in an American Animal
Shelter brings the
issue of shelter overpopulation vividly to life
via a true account of seven days in a typical
U.S. animal shelter. With compelling photos
and moving vignettes, it chronicles the stories
of 75 animals who passed through a northern
California shelter during one week. Their gripping
stories include excerpts from actual shelter
records; the words of shelter workers, volunteers,
and visitors; and the final conclusion of each
animal's journey through the shelter system.
For only

facilities and to
provide necessary medical care for those pets.
