Book Review

"Hayes’ books, Before You Get a Pet, Top Reasons Why People Get Rid of Their Pets, and Keeping Your Pets should be required reading for anyone considering getting a pet or giving up their pet. The books are concise and to the point about being a responsible pet owner, mincing no words about the importance of our role in the well-being of our pets." ~ Elizabeth Coalson, Founder, National Canine Advocacy Group

Six Important Questions

"With more adoptable pets than ever, you need to be informed. But in a world where we're inundated with information it's hard to know which way to go.Tammy Hayes' book, So You Want A Dog, asks questions that are basic to acquiring a dog. This excellent work sorts through the myriad of information to bring you the six important keys that can help you make the decision of whether they should get a dog at this time in your life. It's well written and easy to read. I highly recommend it."
