Finnegan the Pizza Box Dog
A True Story
by
Kevin Yaworski
It’s a cold snowy night when Kevin and his wife Beverley see an abandoned dog sitting on a pizza box by the side of the road close to their farm. They had no choice but to adopt this dog and hope that it would fit into farm life. The country and winter are not nice to stray abandoned dogs. It is crucial however that Finnegan pass certain farm tests to stay on the farm. Everything about farm life is new to this big German Shepherd. She’s afraid of the cattle, keeps getting shocked by the electric fence, and worst of all, she can’t swim a bit! But life has some excitement in store for dear old Finnegan. Only time will tell where she’ll go, what home she might find, and whose hearts she’ll melt along the way. Finnegan the Pizza Box Dog is the true story of an abandoned, lonely, frightened German Shepherd who was found sitting on a pizza box on the side of a country road. Kevin and Beverley brought her into their home—and into their hearts. They helped Finnegan regain her trust, get healthy, and find a home where she would be loved. This book will delight readers young and old who want to learn more about living on a family farm, hear funny stories from Finnegan’s life, and discover the true value of a farm dog.
Kevin and Beverley Yaworski are a married farm couple who still work the mixed family farm where Kevin grew up. In the summer they graze over 400 head of beef cattle in two different pastures. Kevin and Beverley farmed all their lives. Kevin also worked for thirty years as a professional agrologist working directly with all kinds of farmers, and has written many fact sheets on agriculture technology as well as news columns and articles about farming. The couple have three grown children and seven grandchildren—and fostered one funny, unique, clever, curious dog named Finnegan.
