Lesley’s first book, Tia Talks—My Life in a Multi-breed Family is the Premier Volume in her series called My Dogs Talk.
Tia, an English Setter, tells humorous stories about her life living at GREYSETT with other dogs, a bird named Stretch, and the humans—Grandma and Aunt Lesley. It’s funny and an easy read. Available in Ebook and paperback
■ NOTE: GREYSETT is not a rescue or shelter. Lesley's late mother determined the name for their home because of their special love for English Setters and Greyhounds. Dogs residing there are not fosters; they are Lesley's—and in their forever home.
