Meet Craig Grossi, a Marine who befriended a stray dog while serving in Afghanistan and smuggled him back to the United States. Craig wrote a book about this experience called Craig and Fred: A Marine, a stray dog and how they rescued each other. We talk about this book and Craig's latest book, Second Chances: A Marine, his dog, and finding redemption. Second Chances is out April 13, 2021 and details Craig's story of working with inmates who raise dogs to serve veterans. If you don't know Craig and Fred, prepare to fall in love with these stubbornly positive beings. We hope you pick up both books and let us know what you think!Learn more at: https://www.fredtheafghan.com/Other links mentioned in the episode:https://puppyrescuemission.org/https://www.larissawohl.com/book-clubFind us online at http://dognerdshow.com​​​Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dognerdshow/​​​Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DogNerdShow/​​​Shop at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/houndandthi...​
