  • Saving Susie-Belle: Rescued From the Horrors of a Puppy Farm, One Dog's Uplifting True Story

    Janetta Harvey

    (John Blake, Feb. 1, 2015)
    In the week before Christmas, on a bed beside a log burner, a dog with a belly full of lobster snoozed. A few months earlier the dog had lain in the cold and filth of a Welsh puppy farm, her belly empty of food but full of her last litter of puppies. For six years Susie-Belle had been trapped in a life of misery as someone’s commodity, a puppy farm breeding bitch, tied up in the back of a putrid shed, never seeing the outside world. She received little or no care, experiencing neglect to a horrifying degree. Failure to produce enough puppies would have meant certain death. She would have been missed by no one, leaving her particular hellhole without ever knowing that life can be good. For this little dog, peace came before death; she is one of the lucky ones, for she was rescued, lifted out of the dark and grubby nightmare that is puppy farming, and brought to safety in our world. Now she shares a peaceful home and experiences nothing less than complete loving daily care. Where once she was a scabby, nameless creature, she now has a beautiful name, and for the miniature schnauzer Susie-Belle, life these days is good—as good as it can possibly be. Never again will it be anything less for this gentle soul who has suffered at the hands of humans who value commercial profits more than life itself. This is the story of Susie-Belle and her road to recovery.

    Janetta Harvey

    language (John Blake, Feb. 3, 2014)
    In the week before Christmas, on a cosy bed beside a log burner a dog snoozes happily, her belly full of lobster. Just a few months earlier she had lain in the cold and filth of a Welsh puppy farm, her belly empty of food but full of yet another litter of puppies. The contrast could not have been greater.For six years Susie-Belle had been trapped in a life of misery as someone's commodity, a breeding bitch in a puppy farm, tied up in the back of a putrid shed, never seeing the outside world, receiving little or no care and experiencing neglect to a horrifying degree.For dogs like her, the end is usually a grim death, whether it's because they fail to be a good breeder or because they have simply become too old and weary to produce and raise the puppies that are demanded of them.A far happier ending awaited this little dog though as she was rescued, lifted out of the dark and grubby hidden nightmare that is puppy farming and brought to safety by someone who cared enough to make a difference.This is the moving tale of what life was like for one small dog, how it changed, and why no dog should ever be allowed to suffer at the hands of humans who value commercial profits more than life itself.This is the story of Susie-Belle and her road to recovery.

    Janetta Harvey

    Paperback (Troubador Publishing, Sept. 28, 2016)
    This delightful new children's book, Saving Maya, is perfect for readers aged 8 and above. It tells the story of two dogs who are destined to become sisters.

Readers first meet Willow, a much-loved family pet living a happy normal life with Patsy. One day, Patsy decides to get Willow a sister but, she soon finds out that something is not right; she discovers that many of the puppies she admires come from awful places: puppy farms! Maya is one of those dogs. She's stuck in a filthy, dark barn and has been there her whole life. When readers first meet Maya, she's in a terrible state and fears her life is nearly over. However, rescue comes and readers follow Maya's journey to a place of safety, where for the first time in her life, she experiences kindness and eventually finds herself living with Willow and Patsy. This tale of courage and survival will appeal to children who enjoy tales about animals. Saving Maya can also be used in the classroom to educate children on the ethics of animal cruelty.
