Bulu : African wonder dog / by Dick Houston.

Houston, Dick. (Author).

Summary:

Steve and Anna knew that the Zambian bush was a dangerous place for a pet. So when they adopted the runt of a terrier litter, they tried to train and protect him from peril. Still, Bulu had some terrifying, heart-stopping encounters in his life. To their surprise, Bulu also had an astonishing ability to calm and communicate with orphaned animals-warthogs, monkeys, and a newborn bushbuck.
