Piglet : the unexpected story of a deaf blind pink puppy and his family / Melissa Shapiro, DVM, with Mim Eichler Rivas.

Shapiro, Melissa, (author.). Rivas, Mim Eichler, (author.).

Summary:

When Shapiro, a Connecticut veterinarian, got a call about a tiny deaf blind puppy rescued from a hoarding situation in need of fostering, little did she know how it would transform her, her family, and legions of admirers destined to embrace the saga of the indomitable pink pup. Weighing under two pounds, Piglet connected, gained confidence, and an extraordinary spirit emerged. When the day arrived to say good-bye to the now six-pound pink boy dog with the larger than life spirit, her family decided to make a permanent place for him. She shows how a special little puppy with a purpose was able to teach the power of empathy, love, and kindness. -- adapted from jacket
