http://amazingtails.net/ginny-loving-dog-rescued-900-injured-stray-cats/The story of Ginny the Schnauzer/Siberian husky mix is one that will definitely brighten your day. Her life saving skills made her legendary and she even has books written about her.
This amazing pooch managed to save over 900 ill and injured cats in her lifetime.
The landlord of a disused apartment first discovered Ginny back in 1990. Clearly abused and abandoned, she and her three puppies had been locked in a closet with no food or water for several days.
The landlord called the shelter and Ginny and her pups were taken in. At first the vets thought that she might be beyond saving, and contemplated euthanasia.

What a loving being she was. You could see others loved, trusted her completely.

and think I still have it on the bookshelf. I think it is called "The Dog That Saved Cats". It was so incredible.

Animals need all the help they can get. They are living precariously in this predators' paradise.
So glad she had human-sized friends, who treated her with kindness.
