PRAISE
Have you ever met someone who was lovely and unassuming and then you discovered her life was a treasure chest brimming with rare gems? That’s how it was when I met Mo. Her life overflows with incredible God stories that will tug at your heart. This book is a beautiful collection of tales of some of the special dogs who have changed lives with their extraordinary abilities. More than that, it’s a generous glimpse into the life of a woman who demonstrates what can happen when you agree to put your whole heart into doing what God created you to do. This book is wonderful.

The title of this warm and wonderful book should be ‘Wonder Dogs and Wonder Woman’. For Maureen Maurer is every bit as extraordinary as the dogs she loves and trains.

Wonder Dogs will win your heart over! This book gave me a fresh perspective on hardships and how even the most terrible circumstances can be redeemed and turned into joy. Maureen truly has such a gift of training dogs, but also of helping and comforting those that have suffered great loss, and giving them hope again. This book will do just that for you- give you hope again, in whatever you may be walking through right now.
