'Josh is unhappy. His mother and sister are on the other side of Australia. He's stuck with a new stepmother who wants to feed him rabbit food, and a stepsister who spends half her life in the bathroom. His dad has no time for him any more, and always seems to side with Lisa and Courtney. Tip, his new red kelpie pup, has a death sentence hanging over her head. If Josh can't train her to be a good sheepdog, she'll be shot. Little do they know that both of them will have to face even greater dangers which will test their loyalty and love to the utmost. Author Jenny Shepherd has seen many good dogs like Tip discarded because their owners failed to train them properly. In Saving Tippy, Jenny shows how a dog should be trained-with love and patience.'
