The Last-Chosen Dog

The Girl Who Understood

Rukkus counted 143 sunsets in his cage. Gia moved through 3 foster homes until she found a permanent home. When the girl with a single tear in her eye met the dog no one wanted, they taught the world what it meant to love unconditionally.

Traci Simonton was born in a small town in Eastern Pennsylvania, where she spent her early years before trading snowy winters for the sunshine of Florida.

Character Inspiration
Traci’s bull terrier, Dilly, a goofy, pizza-crust-loving “two-year-old in a dog suit”, inspired Rukkus’ spirit. Like Dilly, Rukkus isn’t polished or perfect. He’s real: flawed, loyal, and proof that “imperfect” hearts leave the deepest paw prints.

About The Book

An overlooked English Bull Terrier and a girl with scars, both waiting to be chosen, find each other in a shelter. Their bond unravels a quiet truth: sometimes, the “broken” ones mend us first. A story for every soul who’s ever felt invisible.
