LIONS, ELEPHANTS & BEARS by PK Foster *****

This is a great story with humorous, not so humorous stories of an Animal Control officer working for a town of 6,000 people and more animals than people. In the country of NH...mountains, rivers, fall colors and of course disabling snow.

The officer begins with her first training jobs and finally is on her own. She kept a NH law book about animals with her so she could do the proper thing in most circumstances. She enjoys her job and you can tell she has an affinity for animals.

She picks up odd animals, a dog that keeps jumping into cars at the video store, 2 pygmy goats in her 5 run kennel attracted a lot of attention from people going to the dump which is where the dog shelter was built. There was a nice dog walking path a few yards away and instead of ignoring the dogs she picked up she walked them 2 times a day.

Lots of compassion for animals and so many difficult situations she handles with finesse. I would highly recommend this novel.
