Each day, Rusty feeds a dog that's left chained in the frigid weather with no shelter and no food or water. When he realizes that the dog's been injured, Rusty and his friend Andrew unchain the dog and take it. Are they stealing, or are they rescuing a dog in need?

With the dog living in their secret hideout, the boys face multiple challenges, including a mysterious ghost dog that tries to lead them to a startling secret, Andrew's snoopy sister, and the escalating threats of the dog's abusive owner. The fast-paced suspense builds to a surprising conclusion, which will leave young readers cheering for Rusty's compassion and determination.

If you like mystery books it is the right book. I didn't like that it just ended and I thought it should have gone a little bit longer.

it was a really good book. HI

I really liked this book. It is about a boy who finds a tortured dog. He wants to take care of him but his mother doesn't allow dogs in the house. He hides the dog and finds trouble with the actual owner. Will he succeed in his plan and keep the dog, or will everything turn upside-down and around?

I thought this was a great book. It got kind of scary at parts, but it was really good.

This was a really great book

I loved Ghost Dog Secrets because I thought that it was boring to start with but as I read more it really got interesting. I also liked it because it was sad some parts but really happy the next. The book is not what I thought it would be like.

This is a great book you should really read it, It has some violence but it is really good i sware.

This is really good book. Tate recommended it too.

I like this book partly because Rusty takes matters into his own hands and takes the dog, and partly because I'm an animal lover and Peg Kehret is one of my favorite authors. :)
