Description

The start of a brand new series about working dogs from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Dog's Purpose, W. Bruce Cameron!

Some dogs were born to lend a helping hand (or paw!).

Zeus, a chocolate lab puppy, is one of them. With his courage, smarts, and strength his purpose seems clear: he’ll become a water rescue dog!

But becoming a water rescue dog is no easy task. Under the watchful eye of dog trainer Marco and his young son, Kimo, Zeus must learn how to track down lost hikers and pets, attempt daring ocean rescues, and even jump out of helicopters.

Does Zeus really have what it takes?

The first book in Cameron’s new Dogs with a Purpose series, Zeus: Water Rescue is a fun, heartwarming adventure that will introduce young readers to the bravery and hard work of water rescue dogs.
