Reppucci, contains more than 60 vibrant color photos of dogs to help illustrate the compelling and uplifting story of Samantha - a pretty tricolor rescue bird dog who uses her warm personality to win over people and build a new family after being put up for adoption by a hunter because she is gun-shy and afraid to hunt.
