When The Going Gets Ruff

What’s better than being best friends? Being best friends who volunteer together at the Roxbury Park Dog Shelter! This fun, sweet series for tween girls is a new Babysitters Club—with dogs!

Sasha has always wanted a pet—but her mom doesn’t think she’s responsible enough to take care of one. Sasha knows she can be forgetful sometimes, but after weeks of volunteering at the Roxbury Park Dog Shelter with her friends Kim and Taylor, she’s sure she can convince her mom she’s ready for a pet of her own.

But that won’t be easy. The newest member of the girls’ after-school dog care program is a big, two-year-old puppy who’s too rambunctious for her own good. How can Sasha prove she’s responsible if she can’t get one problem puppy under control?

With a focus on friendship, family and cute canines, Roxbury Park Dog Club is perfect for young middle grade readers who snap up books from series like Cupcake Diaries and Candy Apple, or for any girl who loves dogs!
