The true story of the intrepid woman whose life-long determination to protect America's mustangs captured the heart of the country.

In 1950, Velma Johnston was a thirty-eight-year-old secretary enroute to work near Reno, Nevada, when she came upon a truck of battered wild horses that had been rounded up and were to be slaughtered for pet food. Shocked and angered by this gruesome discovery, she vowed to find a way to stop the cruel round-ups, a resolution that led to a life-long battle that would pit her against ranchers and powerful politicians--but eventually win her support and admiration around the world. This is the first biography to tell her courageous true story.

Like Dian Fossey, Jane Goodall, or Temple Grandin, Velma Johnston dedicated her life to public awareness and protection of animals. Wild Horse Annie and the Last of the Mustangs follows Velma from her childhood, in which she was disfigured by polio, to her dangerous vigilante-style missions to free captured horses and document round-ups, through the innovative and exhaustive grassroots campaign which earned her the nickname "Wild Horse Annie" and led to Congress passing the "Wild Horse Annie Bill," to her friendship with renowned children's author and horse-lover Marguerite Henry.

A powerful combination of adventure, history, and biography, Wild Horse Annie and the Last of the Mustangs beautifully captures the romance and magic of wild horses and the character of the strong-willed woman who made their survival her legacy.

Good quality
Color: Red
Very sturdy for super chewer dog. Only change I would make is I wish it held more kibble but dog loves it and I don’t worry she will choke on a broken piece when I’m away.

BEST DOG TOY for TREATS EVER!!!!
Color: Brown
If I could have given more than 5 stars, I would have! I had been giving my 70 lb boxer peanut butter in femur bones that I got at the pet store for years. She loved them but the bones would break down from chewing and biting on them. I would have to throw them away when the edges got sharp in fear of cutting my dog's mouth and tongue. This PETSWEET dog toy was the answer. I have been using yogurt, peanut butter and pumpkin so far. I freeze them with the goodies as is suggested. My dog LOVES her evening treat now and I don't worry about sharp edges hurting her mouth. It is washable so more sanitary than the femur bones.

Great for super chewer.
Color: Red
Update to original review: After leaving initial review the seller reached out and asked how to fix it the issue. I was willing to try same product again. They sent me two and I have had no problems with either of the new ones. Great communication from seller. My dog loves the treat In the center and chews on the product forever. She has not been able to get the top off of either of the new ones. Thanks!
