Author: Dan Walsh

Dan Walsh centers character-driven inspirational fiction on families, recovery, faith, and developing relationships. Rescuing Finley begins his four-book Forever Home series, followed by Finding Riley, Saving Parker, and Keeping Bailey. The opening novel brings together Amy Wallace, veteran Chris Seger, and Finley, a golden retriever left in a shelter. Amy enters a prison dog-training program, Chris is adjusting to a life-changing military injury, and Finley becomes the connection through which their separate losses begin to change. Walsh describes the series as stories in which rescue dogs affect people in need of healing, making the animals active parts of the emotional structure rather than decorative companions. Rescuing Finley dates to 2015 and combines Christian fiction, a developing relationship, and the practical work of training a shelter dog. Its first position matters because the novel establishes the humane and restorative pattern that the later Forever Home books continue with different dogs and families.
