Lucas Ray is shocked when an adorable puppy jumps out of an abandoned building and into his arms. Though the apartment he shares with his mother, a disabled veteran, doesn't allow dogs, Lucas can't resist taking Bella home.
Bella is inexplicably drawn to Lucas, even if she doesn't understand the necessity of games like No Barks. As it becomes more difficult to hide her from the neighbors, Lucas begins to sneak Bella into the VA where he works. There, Bella brings joy and comfort where it is needed most.
After Bella is picked up by Animal Control because pit bulls are banned in Denver, Lucas has no choice but to send her to a foster home until he can figure out what to do. But Bella, distraught at the separation, doesn't plan to wait. With four hundred miles of dangerous Colorado wilderness between her and her person, Bella sets off on a seemingly impossible and completely unforgettable adventure home.
A classic story of unwavering loyalty and incredible devotion, A Dog's Way Home is a beautifully told, charming tale that explores the unbreakable bond between us and our pets.

      Ann Marie Lee is the voice of Bella, a puppy of indeterminate breed who was found under the crawl space of a building by "her person," Lucas. Lee's youthful-sounding voice matches the thoughts and actions of the exuberant puppy who's eager to do her job of being a good dog and comforting people at the veteran's hospital where Lucas works. But trouble arises in the form of an angry dogcatcher who insists that Bella is a pit bull, a breed that is illegal in Denver. Bella ends up in a foster home far from Denver--and runs away. Lee's narration captures her determination to find Lucas as she travels hundreds of miles over two years. Even though some scenes border on being clich�d, this is still an uplifting story of hope and perseverance. M.M.G. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
