Book Description
At 84 years of age, Barbara Travis Osgood decided to publish a book. Through this autobiographical collection of short stories, she shares funny, sad, and always intimate moments from a life with senior Labrador Retrievers.84 Paws is more than a story about rescuing twenty-one elderly labs. It is the story about a woman with bipolar disorder, who, against all odds, saved herself. As it chronicles her enormous successes and her heart-wrenching plunges into darkness, it introduces readers to a cast of funny, furry, feisty senior labs who have occupied Barbara's home and heart, showing how she turned her love of labs into the best of all possible therapies.A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will go to Lab Rescue LRCP, for the rescue and care of senior labs.What readers are saying: "Osgood combines our own human challenges in life with the struggles of rescued senior labs. Her own amazing life story, coupled with her imagery of each 'Old Lab' paints a beautiful picture of each personality. Any animal lover would enjoy reading this book." - Crystal Taylor, DVM"What a touching and wonderful book. As a long-standing volunteer with Lab Rescue LRCP, the stories of Barbara's book go straight to my heart. The love and raw emotion that helped create 84 Paws explains so well how the founders and volunteers of Lab Rescue LRCP feel about the dogs we take in and then adopt to loving homes. The young and the old: all are deserving of love and a second chance." - Jen Norris
