Take a wild ride into the TIGERS Preserve and witness the unique animal friendships created there

Dogs are Family, Too reminds us that friendships aren’t just for humans. When the life-and-death struggle of the natural world is removed, even animals that would be mortal enemies in the wild can become best buds. This collection of stories and photographs chronicles these unusual interspecies animal friendships.

A depressed black lab named Pharos finds his purpose in life by helping to train two liger cubs, Aries and Yeti. German shepherd Anubis helps Woola the wolf grow into a healthy and well-adjusted adult. Chimpanzee Anjana helps her trainer raise two white tiger cubs born prematurely during a hurricane.

Adorable photographs accompany these heartwarming stories, all told from the perspective of Doc, the proprietor of the TIGERS Preserve. Each story points to the same conclusion—that all kinds of animals, like all kinds of humans, are capable of empathy, compassion, and love.
