OPERATION ResCUTE is intended to educate and encourage the next generation of young readers to think about adopting shelter dogs in need of loving homes. Only 30 percent of pets in homes come from shelters and rescue organizations. An estimated 2.7 million healthy pets remain in shelters each year!

Hopefully, the ResCUTE book and stuffed animal series will foster the development of empathic and proactive young citizens who will be responsible to their surroundings and others less fortunate.
