The Tortured Jewel

The Tortured Jewel is the story of a shelter dog who after being caught by the county escaped and climbed like a cat over their wire enclosure.

Bijou tells her own story of her illness and the attempts to cure the problem.

She explains how she waited to be adopted, about her new family, how they drove during the night to get away from a fire that threatened their home.

She also tells what it was like to meet a skunk, and about groups of people who are helping dogs.
