Jeanne Cassidy never dreamed she would fall in love so deeply, especially after age forty. But as soon as her husband, Tom, saw retired racing Greyhounds featured on an episode of The Joan Rivers Show and encouraged her to take a look, the beautiful dogs immediately captured her heart.
In a poignant retelling of her experiences with Greyhounds, Jeanne begins by detailing a visit to a Connecticut residence in 1990 where she and Tom were introduced to a quiet, two-year-old female who was cringing at the back of her crate. After adopting and naming her Ping Ping, Jeanne discloses how she and Tom welcomed her into their home nestled in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains, helped her adjust to her new environment that included a sister cat, and showered her with unconditional love without realizing that this adoption would not be their last.
Unconditional is a touching narrative that shares insight into an East Coast couple's experiences as they adopted, nurtured, and enthusiastically loved retired racing Greyhounds.
