From the author of the critically acclaimed bestseller, Scent of the Missing, comes a heartwarming and inspiring story that shows how dogs can be rescued and can rescue in return. For her first book, Susannah Charleson was praised for her unique insight into the kinship between humans and dogs, as revealed through canine search and rescue. In The Possibility Dogs Charleson chronicles her journey into the world of psychiatric-service and therapy dogs trained to serve the human mind, a journey that began as a personal one. After a particularly grisly search led to a struggle with PTSD, Charleson credits healing to her partnership with search dog Puzzle. Inspired by that experience and having met dogs formally trained to assist in such crises, Charleson learns to identify abandoned dogs with service potential, often plucking them from shelters at the last minute, and to train them for work beside hurting partners, to whom these second-chance dogs bring intelligence, comfort, and hope.

Many dogs, especially those from animal shelters, have not had good experiences in their previous lives and are traumatized or fearful. This often manifests itself in different behaviors in different situations. For example, a dog expresses its fear through aggression on the lead if another dog comes too close, if it encounters cyclists or joggers or a person who wants to stroke the fearful dog. Other dogs are afraid of stairs, being left alone or loud noises. Anxious dogs also try to escape situations and show their fear by curling their tail or putting their ears back.
