Story5 out of 5 stars 3
Sasha is the story of a very remarkable dog: a Staffordshire Bull Terrier abandoned close to death at the age of six weeks old. Rescued from a street gutter, she had the good fortune to be adopted by author Brian L. Porter and his family. Despite suffering from a catalogue of injuries, including two broken legs and skin allergies, and eventually being diagnosed as a serious epileptic at just two years old, Sasha's story is one of triumph over adversity; of love, happiness, and inspiration.

Great series of rescue dog books
I had already listened to Sheba and this didn’t disappoint! It’s another touching story about another dog‘s life that touched my heart. Would recommend!
