Twelve-year-old Bree Davies is devastated when her beloved Border Collie, Danny, goes missing after her mom leaves the gate open to their Santa Monica home. In her search to find Danny, Bree is thrust into the world of animals in need. With the help and guidance of animal rescuer Rayleen, Bree's heart is opened to the plight of the dogs in the downtown Vox Street shelter. Before long, her emptiness about her own loss shifts into action – and her quest to find Danny and her newfound mission to save the shelter dogs soon become one.
Longtime animal rescuer Linzi Glass has crafted a singular story of finding oneself in the search for finding another, a compelling emotional journey as well as a call-to-action for animal-lovers everywhere.

I read a book not that long ago ,A Dog's Purpose and what I like about these books are that the both show different perspectives. Finding Danny shows the persons view, and A dog's Purpose shows the dogs view. The main character is Bree Davies a 12 year old girl, she lost her dog Danny(her support dog for when her parents are gone), after her mom accidentally left the gate open. She is on a whole adventure trying to find him and some how manages to get the most popular boy to like her ,and meet a wonderful lady that helps her along the way. Now , I have a connection to this book aswell, I couldn't keep my dog anymore so I gave her to a friend ,which while she was over there hopped the fence ,and has been gone for about 3 1/2 months.
