Product Description
Whirlwind of a woman, Randi Berger wraps you in tales of her dog rescues -- more than ten thousand over the past twenty years -- in her new, revised, and expanded My Recycled Pets: Diary of a Dog Addict. A nationally recognized pioneer in the pet rescue movement, Berger takes you from first pet to longest lived twenty-one-year-old dog-of-nine-lives as she magically matches unwanted dogs with the perfect, loving new owners. Along the way, she treats you to laughter, tears, and spiritual insights. Experience the astonishing synchronicities and miracles that gave Ms. Berger her faith. You, too, will see how: Every detour from what we think is right holds a message somewhere for us that everything is in Divine Right Order. The mesmerizing stories held within the pages of My Recycled Pets will forever change your belief system about what is possible for us on Earth. Recognized by Writer s Digest with an Inspirational Award, My Recycled Pets: Diary of a Dog Addict proves what one determined person can accomplish and what power lies within each of us. 100% of the net profits from the sale of this book benefits Recycled Pets Rescue, an all volunteer, non profit 501(c)3 charity.

Must read! January 6, 2009
Norma J. Worley (Augusta, ME United States)
My Recycled Pets: Diary of a Dog Addict
A MUST read for anyone who is involved in animal rescue, works in an animal shelter, any type of animal welfare or just loves dogs. Randi takes us on the most wonderful ride as she goes from shelter to shelter to help the most downtrotten dogs - the ones even the shelter staff say can't be saved.
There were moments when I felt I was actually in her car stopping at shelters and then celebrating the dogs she rescued and at other times crying with her for the ones she could not save.
I encourage anyone who loves dogs or is thinking of starting a rescue to jump in and fly with Randi throughout the Southern CA area. But hang on because you will be speeding from one shelter to the next all the while helping one dog at a time without taking a breath.
wonderful individual stories November 5, 2008

I loved how this is divided up into individual stories about each rescue. After the beginning information about the author, the stories begin. It took me 2 days to read the beginning and then 2 hrs. to read the individual stories. I just couldn't put it down. I hope she writes another book.
excellent set of stories! September 20, 2008

This was a great book and what made it even better was that it included resources at the end so you could get involved. The book is well written, draws you in and makes you feel like a part of each rescue and tragedy. I plan on reading this again and again. It gives you hope that one person can make a difference one or two dogs at a time
Very inspirational March 26, 2008

I loved this book! I found it very inspirational and motivational. Thanks to people like Randi, I have the most amazing little rescue dog and I love reading about other successful rescues as well. As a dog lover who also sometimes volunteers for dog rescue in the Bay Area, I was touched by Randi's stories. I also love her spiritual approach, of searching for divine order in a chaotic world. The book has inspired me to begin volunteering/fostering for rescue again, and to give dogs that might appear unreachable a second chance.
