"In this compelling and important story, Carol Mithers explores the unexpected impacts of economic inequality on America's pets and pet owners. Highlighting the groundbreaking work of Lori Weise amidst key moments in the larger rescue movement suggests solutions to some of today's central human-animal issues." --Abigail Disney, filmmaker, philanthropist, and activist, "Through the unforgettable story of one amazing woman, Rethinking Rescue tells the uplifting but often heartbreaking story of how the modern animal rescue movement has both saved and failed our nation's dogs--and their humans. As it takes us on a journey into a world where animal welfare meets and collides with America's seemingly intractable inequality, the book asks some hard questions. It's a haunting and compelling read, one that's all but impossible to put down till the final page." --Helaine Olen, Omidyar Network Reporter in Residence 2024 and author of Pound Foolish: Exposing the Dark Side of the Personal Finance Industry "In this compelling and important story, Carol Mithers explores the unexpected impacts of economic inequality on America's pets and pet owners.

Mithers captures this dual-species subculture in vivid detail, illuminating both its grubbiness and its grace."--Jennifer Reese, The Washington Post "What Matthew Desmond's Evicted does for housing [...] Mithers does for pet ownership--lays bare the many ways in which poverty and pet ownership intersect, weaving a heartbreaking tapestry of a system that largely fails both animals and people." --Sophie Vershbow, DAME Magazine "Not only is Rethinking Rescue an enjoyable read, Carol also has created a thought-provoking book." -- Life Elsewhere "An engrossing, inspiring read for lovers of dogs and humans alike." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "[An] eye-opening account . . . Mithers's finely crafted narrative applauds Weise's work but doesn't cut corners; it unflinchingly depicts the harrowing conditions pets face in homeless encampments. The result is a provocative challenge to contemporary mores regarding animal welfare." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Enlightening and compassionate . . . Readers will never look at animal rescue the same way again after reading this thoughtful and powerful behind-the-scenes look into the animal welfare world." -- Library Journal "In this compelling and important story, Carol Mithers explores the unexpected impacts of economic inequality on America's pets and pet owners.

Synopsis
Rethinking Rescue boldly confronts two of the biggest challenges of our time--poverty and homelessness--in asking the question: Who deserves the love of a pet? In Los Angeles's most underserved communities, Lori Weise is known as the Dog Lady, the woman who's spent decades caring for people in poverty and the animals that love them. Long before anyone else, Weise grasped that animal and human suffering are inextricably connected and created a new rescue narrative: an enduring safety net empowering pet owners and providing resources to reduce the number of pets coming into shelters. Rethinking Rescue: Dog Lady and the Story of America's Forgotten People and Pets unites the causes of animal welfare and social justice, moving between Weise's story and that of the larger U.S. rescue movement. Through captivating storytelling and investigative reporting, Carol Mithers examines the consequences of bias within this overwhelmingly white movement, where an overemphasis on placing animals in affluent homes disregards pet owners in poverty. Weise's innovative and ultimately triumphant efforts revealed a better way. As cities across the country witness some of the worst housing crises in history, and as the population of unhoused people and pets continues to skyrocket, Rethinking Rescue offers a story of compassion and hope.
