After rescuing a puppy two decades ago, Diane Rose-Solomon became involved in animal rescue and education, serving for years on the board of directors of a small grassroots organization, the Animal Guardian Society. This lady with a heart of gold felt the need to give back even more to the animal community, so she became a Certified Humane Education Specialist through Humane Society University in 2009. She then combined her humane and creative interests by publishing her first two books, award-winning JJ the American Street Dog, and How He Came to Live in Our House and the sequel JJ Goes to Puppy Class.

Her latest contribution to book shelves everywhere is What to Expect When Adopting a Dog - a guide to successful dog adoption and pet parenting for every family.
