When a head-on car crash injures her owners, Jade, a fifteen-month-old Australian shepherd, bolts into the wilds of Yellowstone National Park. Alone in the wilderness, she faces starvation, fierce predators, cold nights, and the dangers of the landscape itself. Bring Jade Home is the gripping true story of the desperate search to find Jade as summer fades in the park’s high country.
The day after the wreck, critically injured David leaves the trauma center in a desperate effort to find his beloved dog. Eventually, an enormous search effort is launched, spearheaded by park employee Kat Brekken and fueled by social media. Previously, the longest any dog was lost in Yellowstone and found alive was two weeks. As each passing day breaks that record, Jade is occasionally seen— against all the odds, the young Aussie is alive! Bring Jade Home is a heartwarming tale of a dog whose trials bring out the generosity of spirit and the best in people.
“Bring Jade Home is the perfect book for animal lovers, particularly dog lovers, but it has a wider appeal—it is uplifting, it shows what lengths we as humans will go to help each other when moved to do so. An inspiring story for just about everyone.” —Mary McCluskey, Author
“Not just for dog lovers; a passionate reminder of the wonders of Yellowstone and its inhabitants at a time when our national parks are being threatened.” — Kirkus Reviews
