This is not really a review, but rather an observation. While looking on Amazon I found that this book sells for $46.45 and its used price is listed as $927.91, as was other Lu Lu books. What gives with this? My interest in this is simple. Why should I list with Amazon? Who is going to pay this amount when you can get it from Lu Lu much cheaper. Someone please tell me why a used book would be listed for $927.91?
"i love this book! " this book is a great book for just picking up and reading a few stories ,and then going back and reading more later. it is very inspiring . the pictures are heart warming,knowing they all had a happy ending. it made me want to volunteer to drive one. a great gift for any dog lover,and well worth the money.
"THE TALES OF RESCUED DOGS" For anyone who is an animal lover, myself included, Deborah Eades’ book is definitely one that deserves a heart warming Awwwwwe! Deborah is a volunteer for what’s known as the Dog Rescue Railroad. Years ago a website was created called petfinder.com which helps place pets in new homes. Volunteers often travel cross country to pick up animals and transport them to their new owners. These are all volunteers who give up their day off and pay their own gas expense to save a life. Most would tell you that they are the ones who benefit the most, by seeing what a difference one person can make to a homeless animal. Deborah states in the introduction that every animal has its own unique story about how it ended up in need and the happy ending that hopefully greets them at the end of their journey. She’s been transporting dogs since 2002. This book tells the story of several dogs which Deborah picked up from shelters and helped to relocate to loving... More > homes. She dedicates the book to a long list of names of dogs which she helped rescue and to all the homeless pets who weren’t so fortunate. Often arriving the same day the animals were scheduled to be euthanized, Deborah tells the “tales” of neglected animals who are frightened and often in shock. Society has given up on them and their sad eyes are begging for a second chance. A hand to lick, a bowl of food, a comfortable bed, a pat on the rump and a scratch on the chin, all these dogs crave is love. Deborah is like a guardian angel arriving just in time. A book like this would not be complete without photos to accompany each story. Oreo, Hooch, Shyla, Sophie and her pups, Dusty, Annie, and many more….there are some sad memorial pictures of dogs that have passed on but for the most part, all of the dogs show life in their eyes and a big panting smile across their mouth. They know they’ve been given a second chance. Of course, a book like this doesn’t end here. I’m sure there have been many more journeys for Deborah and for even more dogs that have been rescued thanks to her. And we can help! Proceeds from the sale of her book go to help Dogs Deserve Better. Bravo to this author for using Lulu to bring attention to a good cause and for giving back in more ways than one!

"I LOVED THE STORIES AND PICTURES" THIS IS A GREAT REALISTIC BOOK.. I DO DOG AND CAT TRANSPORTS ALSO, AND SOME OF THE STORIES AND ANIMALS BREAK YOUR HEART.. VERY GOOD IDEA TO GET THE WORD OUT TO ALL ANIMAL LOVERS THAT NO MATTER HOW MAY GREAT STRIDES WE MAKE RE:OUR ANIMALS THERE ARE ALWAYS PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO STILL CONSIDER THEM JUST POSSESSIONS. NOT OUR FAMILY MEMBERS!
