Rescue in the Acknowledgments: A Story Worth Sharing

We’ve been keeping a surprise under wraps… and we’re thrilled to finally share it. One of our longtime friends, dog advocate, and local author @jils_dog_island_dogs has released her second book:
Dog Island Too

And guess what? In the acknowledgments—written straight from the heart—she gave us the kind of shoutout that left us speechless: a portion of all proceeds from book sales will be donated to R.A.D.A.R.

As a rescue fueled by community love and dog people who get it, this kind of support means the world to us. Every purchase helps us save more underdogs, cover unexpected medical bills, and keep doing the work we love most.

Where to Get Your Copy:

• Local? Stop by @urban.pet.co and say hi to Elsie, one of our beloved alumni who’s now living her best life surrounded by books and biscuits.

• Not local? You can grab your copy (and the original Dog Island) on Amazon.

P.S. For those of you who knew and loved our very first rescue and founding inspiration, Ammo—you’ll want to grab a copy. Let’s just say… you might find a familiar face tucked into those pages. 🥹

Thank you, Jil.

For telling stories, for giving back, and for believing that every dog deserves a second chance.
