MDYL 002: Interview with author Jim Gorant




The Make Dogs Your Life Podcast show

Summary: In the second episode I interview author Jim Gorant and discuss his two books, The Lost Dogs and Wallace. Personally I loved both books and think they do an amazing job showing the true nature of pit bulls and what they can accomplish with the right attitude, effort and love. The Lost Dogs is all about the story and rehabilitation of the dogs from football player Michael Vick's illegal dog fighting bust. It shows the horrors the dogs endured and documents their amazing comeback journey. Wallace is the story of a misunderstood shelter dog that was at risk of being put to sleep, but ended up showing the world what pit bulls are really about. In this episode you'll learn: What pit bulls are really capable of when given the right environment How Jim, who didn't know anything about pit bulls, has now become a voice for them About the amazing comeback of dogs that many thought were unreachable Why pit bulls are simply just great dogs Links Mentioned: Jim Gorant The Lost Dogs - Amazon.com Wallace - Amazon.com Jim's original article in Sports Illustrated that inspired the book The Lost Dogs Facebook Page Wallace the Pit Bull Facebook Page Wallace on Youtube   Wallace doing his thing
