BORN WITHOUT A TAIL Oct 01, 2007
By Marse
An energetic page-turner that catches the reader by surprise. What seems, at first, to be a simple memoir about pets becomes an astounding love story about commitment and responsibility in the face of insurmountable obstacles. Ironically, Cayr Ariel Wulff's riveting adventures with animals - some hilarious, some heartbreaking - become lessons in what it means to be truly human.

The Book That Keeps On Wagging Oct 02, 2008
By Bob Tarte
You won't find a better group of stories about what it's like to take in rescued dogs and cats than Cayr Ariel Wulff's wonderful book. The distinctive personality of each and every dog and cat comes through, from Dillon, the mutt who seems to understand English, to terror of a kitten Tally. And we also learn how the animals fit into Cayr's life as she and her partner move from the city to a log cabin in a National Forest. Funny and touching, "Born Without a Tail" never flags in interest. It just wags, and wags, and wags. - Bob Tarte, author of "Enslaved by Ducks" and "Fowl Weather."

Hard to put down.... Sep 22, 2008
By DEBORAH EADES
"Debbie"
I couldnt put this book down and stayed up well into the night to finish it. Then when I climbed into bed with my own two rescued dogs, I remembered the passage where the author describes when her "pack" is all settled in for the night, one dog gives out a deep collective "sigh" to signify the end of another wonderful day spent together. My Wookie does that every night and makes me smile. In BORN WITHOUT A TAIL Ms. Wulff shares the life stories of many of the orphans and strays who have blessed her life these past few decades and how each of them has their own little personality and quirks. If you have pets, you will definitely be able to relate and this book will tug at your heart. Dillon so reminds me of my old dog Sam who didnt live long enough, but touched my heart in a way no other dog ever will. I believe every dog owner has that "one" in their life, although they go on to adopt many others. I know Dillon and Sam run together, young and pain free, across the Bridge and wait for us there.

 Born without a Tail Jul 22, 2008
By Carol A. Mcdonald
A wonderful gentle book about a woman's escapades with all the animals that wander into her life. Not all the stories have happy endings but all are true and written from the heart. I almost felt that the book was being read to me because the writing was so natural and down to earth. All of us animal lovers will see bits and pieces of ourselves in her. This is a lovely book that I will keep and re-read every so often. A terrific book.

Heartwarming! Apr 08, 2008
By L. Brody
What a terrific "feel good" book. Well, written. Leaves you with a sense of hope that there are people who are so compassionate and loving. This is the type of book you want your whole family to read and savour together. I really did not want it to end because I felt so attached to her family of friends and animals. WONDERFUL!
