A Fresh Start at Wagging Tails Dogs' Home by Sarah Hope #Review #WaggingTailsDogs'HomeBook3

 

We are returning to the Wagging Tails Dogs' Home for book 3 in the series. Sarah Hope's A Fresh Start at Wagging Tails Dogs' Home was published by Boldwood Books on 24th March. You can my review of The Wagging Tails Dogs' Home here and Chasing Dreams at Wagging Tails Dogs' Home here

 

 
There’s no place like home…

Although dog trainer Sally is relatively new to Wagging Tails, the team she works with have quickly become her family and the dogs her friends.

But when Andy, the one that got away, turns up for a brief respite from the city, she is at a crossroads. As tempting as a life with him is, she loves her home of West Par, and anyway, she has responsibilities here.

Number one on that list is ensuring the dogs' home stays in business. A developer has been sniffing around wanting to buy the land, and the team is worried.

Sally will do anything to save her home and her friends’ livelihoods but the lure of reuniting with her lost love is strong. Is there a way for her to have both?


 My Thoughts

The community of volunteers at the Dogs' Home is as strong as ever and the story has a familiar feel from the beginning. The focus of this story is Sally who has started anew and is building up a promising business. Putting down roots, she is settled in West Par. When her family contact her, she is horror struck at the suggestion that she should return to their legal business. She has tried so hard to find her own way in life, not the path laid out for her by her family. She has some decisions to make.  Sally's past returns also in the form of her ex- Andy which is a huge shock for her.

    Alongside Sally's life, there are the events and the dogs at the Dogs' Home which is under threat from an aggressive building firm who wants the Dogs Home to be sold to them. There is quite a fight to save the Dogs' Home but you see the determination and ingenuity of the friends there. This is another enjoyable story in an entertaining series.

In short: Uplifting reading
