Rue started life as a regular dachshund but after a surgery for her back and a trip into a hyperbaric oxygen chamber she ended up with super powers. She keeps track of her daily adventures in her journal and on her blog. She is a very active differently-abled dachshund whose determination and love of life will inspire you. Her journal includes photos and stories from some of her greatest adventures: - Mistaking a lime for an Easter Egg - Getting her super powers - Ridding the world of pesky tree rats on squirrel patrol Book Excerpt: " February 8- Any good super hero has to have a few “alter egos” up their sleeve. Here are the ones I have come up with so far: Rue- regular ol' me, silly, sassy, and determined is the best way to describe me. Super Rue- the superhero in me that does amazing things like wag my tail right after surgery. (Don't confuse Super Rue with Subaru... Ones a hero and the other is a car) Kanga"Rue"- Jumpy, bouncy troublemaker (I'm not supposed to jump so I get in ALOT of trouble when they catch me doing this) "Rue"bo-cop- Fun police and squirrel patrol. I try to keep everyone safe and sound from squirrels and squeaky toys "Rue"dolph the Red-Nosed Dog- Nosey little lady always trying to be involved in everyone's business... Which leads to a hurt nose "Rue"ster- Howling hound that likes to wake people up in the morning and announce danger "Rue"tabaga (or as my mom says Rue 'da Begga)- My street urchin alter ego that is always begging for something food-related
