Local author's book launch will also feature adoptable dogs

CINCINNATI (WKRC) - A local man whose family has been a big supporter of rescuing pets has been inspired to write. Dave Hickey created a children's chapter book and got a friend's daughter, who's a student at UC, to illustrate it. The book is called "The Epic Adventures of Little Red Dog". There is a book launch and adoption event coming up on Sept. 14. Hickey, his illustrator Kara Schuler, and Lori Moore, who's helping corral some dogs talk about the book and the event.
