An inspiring true story of a canine friendship that led one man from life on the streets to artistic success
For years, John Dolan had been living rough, trying his best to get by. Born and bred on the estates of east London, his early life was marked by neglect and abuse, and his childhood gift for drawing was stamped out by the tough realities outside his front door. As he grew older, he turned to petty crime to support himself and ended up in prison. On coming out, he soon found himself on the streets, surviving day-by-day, living hand-to-mouth. It wasn’t until he met George, a homeless Staffy puppy, that his life changed for the better. To begin with, George was a handful: he had been abused himself and was scared of human contact. Soon, John and George became inseparable. It was then that John decided to pick up his long-forgotten gift for drawing, sitting on the sidewalk for hours at a time, sketching pictures of George that he would sell to passers-by. With his best friend by his side, and a pencil in his hand, John suddenly found his life’s calling. 16 page color insert George the Dog, John the Artist: A Rescue Story, by John Dolan- Amazon Sales Rank: #452112 in Books

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. a gut-wrenching and revealing story of a famous artist's descent into crime and of the saving power of a dog! By Ann An inspiring story of how the love of a dog changed a man's life. John's path into petty crime was the outcome of a very challenging childhood. John was in and out of prison for petty thievery until he became responsible for the welfare of a dog. He then became a fixture in the Shoredich, London High Street as he sat beside George initially begging then selling the drawings of George and of the locality. Now his large works sell for over $8,000 but you can still buy his small George drawings from him online for $80-120. His story is fascinating and gut wrenching. I couldn't put the book down!

Inglee While the story is compelling, the author's style of writing did nothing to make me want to keep turning the pages. I didn't feel pulled into the story or eager to see what happens next. The reader has to bring emotion to the reading for I found it lacking in the narrative.
