From the stars of the Netflix documentary Life in the Doghouse and founders of one of the most recognized rescue organizations in the world, the poignant story of how Danny and Ron found each other during a time they each needed rescuing, and how they transformed their home into a haven for dogs in need. Danny & Ron’s Dog Rescue is an organization like no other. Because an abused or neglected dog can only recover and learn to trust again when it is in a loving home, Danny and Ron decided to open their doors. Danny and Ron treat each neglected, abused, and misunderstood animal like a member of the family; the dogs eat organic food from their own bowls and are even allowed to sleep in the bed. In this heartwarming book, Danny and Ron chronicle their journey helping more than 13,000 dogs in need, telling the stories of many furry friends that have come into their lives and of their own “rescue” as they came out together late in life. At any given time, there are upwards of 70 dogs lounging, frolicking, recovering, and cuddling under their own roof. For many of these wonderful canines, their house saved them from death. For Danny and Ron, saving and protecting innocent and defenseless canines and finding them forever homes is their passion and life mission. Forever Home is their story—a message of acceptance, kindness, and, of course, love. It is a reminder that hope and joy can arise from the darkest circumstances, and that we all can make the world a better place for ourselves and our animal friends—it starts at home, with patience, empathy, and an open heart.

ABOUT THE BOOK After being leaked to the press by a former employee, Ray Dalio’s Principles appeared on his company, Bridgewater Associates’, website as a presentation of his management philosophy. It is required reading for all employees at Bridgewater. By his own admission, it is a dynamic document, subject to change as the tenets within are applied, discussed, and debated by Bridgewater employees. Dalio explains that “the types of disagreements and mistakes that are typically discouraged elsewhere are expected at Bridgewater because they are the fuel for the learning that helps us maximize the utilization of our potential.” Desiring an atmosphere of “radical openness” Dalio places a high value on independent thinking while recognizing that such thinking often generates disagreement and leads to mistakes. MEET THE AUTHOR Larry Holzwarth is a freelance writer and submarine veteran. A former US Navy systems analyst, he has been a corporate writer on diverse subjects, a professional trainer, recruiter and lecturer. A lifelong student of history, he enjoys reading, camping, hiking and Reds baseball. After traveling extensively he returned to his native midwest where he resides near Cincinnati. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK With three hundred dollars, Dalio purchased shares of Northeastern airlines, the value of which tripled after a takeover shortly thereafter. By the time he entered college, Ray already had a portfolio worth several thousand dollars. Dalio writes of his belief that the most valuable principles are those learned from experience, rather than those that are simply taught and accepted. Describing his own rise from a middle class background to his universally recognized prominence in financial circles, he presents his philosophy, his belief system, his reliance on meditation, and his personal system of values.
The message is clear; we are to walk worthy of our calling. Our Christian walk is how we live our lives here on earth. If we are being urged to walk worthy of our calling. It implies that it is possible not to walk worthy of our calling. With the coming events in mind, we need to remind ourselves of what is going to happen to those who are not walking worthy of their calling. They will be left behind. This is not, nor will it be, a popular message. Nevertheless it is true, and it will happen exactly as described. God is not concerned or swayed by what is popular with mankind. After 6,000 years, it is finally time for man to listen as God begins to speak more directly to him. While it is a popular thought among many Christians today, scripture does not support the whole church we are attending being taken on that day, but rather only those who are ready and active in our Lord's service.
