Mr. Poofy's livestock are dying and he needs help. Are cheetahs killing his goats, sheep and cows? His solution is to poison the cheetahs but a friend wants him to think twice since cheetahs are on the list of threatened species. What will Mr. Poofy do? Enter Puppy, an Anatolian Shepherd. Anatolian Shepherds are commonly employed by farmers to prevent big cats from causing big problems. Puppy is a big, strong, independent dog who wants to protect Mr. Poofy's livestock. A hesitant Mr. Poofy is willing to give it a try, even though he's skeptical. Will Puppy live up to his reputation? With illustrations by award-winning cartoonist Kevin Necessary, and a heartwarming tale written by Cincinnati residents Dr. Elizabeth H. Brown and Kathy Merchant, Mr. Poofy's Puppy was inspired by cheetah conservationist, Cathryn Hilker's fabulous stories of cheetahs in Namibia. It is also loosely based on an event that happened many years ago.
