Beautiful Joe

I read this book as a child (a hard cover) and have never forgotten it. This is a book that touches the soul and you never forget such a wonderful animal. I am 47 yrs. old now and this is one of the best books I remember from my childhood. I HIGHLY recommend this for all readers!

BEAUTIFUL JOE

This story is about a pup who's mother had died because of the masters abuse, she also died of how tierd she was. This man had a familiy and worked as a milk man for a town, his cows were in terrible shape though. They lived in a muddy shelter, and had bad food. They cows one day started processing bad milk, so soon the people got sick. The pup one day became brave enough to pay the milk man back, so he bit him. But the man took the now teenage dog and cut his ears off near his head, and cut off his tail as well. A man on his bike heard and saw the man abuseing his dog, and brought the dog home with him. The children at his was shocked by what they saw. Then they named him beautiful joe after trying to figure out names. From that day on they took care of the dog and had many adventures.

The Story of Beautiful joe

I live very close to Beautiful Joe Park in Meaford, Ontario which is the burial place of Beautiful Joe. I wished to learn more about this remarkable animal and definately had my wish come true with this book. I suggest it to anyone who enjoys stories of the true animal spirit.

Heart warming and compassionate story.

What a story! We see humanity in a new light. Dogs truly are a man's best friend, but man can be a dog's worst enemy.
