I have a copy of the book Rex in the City up for grabs! Here is a little more about it, and how you can win the book for yourself.

Lee Harrington, a frequent contributer to the Bark magazine, wrote a wonderfully witty and tender memoir about rescuing and abused shelter dog and rehabilitating him in her tony NYC apartment. During the process she went from glamorous downtown hipster to dog lover, thoroughly obsessed with the health and happiness of her dog. The book, Rex and the City, is now available in paperback and Lee is going on tour to promote adoptions and the book. Her tour (virtual and old-fashioned) includes inviting organizations to bring dogs in need of adoptions to her signings and donating a portion of the proceeds to the Mayor’s Alliance, a group dedicated to making NYC no-kill. You can read more about the book at www.rexandthecity.net, though be forewarned the publisher thought it was chick lit instead of dog lit.

Don’t you love that her book tour is also going to help dogs find homes? I think it’s great and so nice that she is donating a portion of proceeds to help NYC become no-kill. Not only that but her book is a lovely testament to what can happen when people decide to rescue.

If you want to win the book, leave a comment on this post before midnight November 2nd. I will draw a random number from the entries (please be sure to fill in the email field so I can notify you if you win).
