Title: Rescuing Riley, Saving Myself Pdf A Man and His Dog's Struggle to Find Salvation
Two broken souls forge a healing bond in this “extraordinary story not only of love, but of strength, perseverance, and above all, courage” (Kay Pfaltz, author of Flash’s Song: How One Small Dog Turned Into One Big Miracle).
 
While hiking on a solo vacation in a remote region of Arizona, Zachary Anderegg happened upon Riley, an emaciated puppy clinging to life, at the bottom of a 350-foot canyon. In a daring act of humanity, Zak single-handedly orchestrated a delicate rescue. 
 
But Zak and Riley’s destinies were intertwined long before they improbably found each other. For much of Zak’s childhood, he was at the bottom of his own canyon—a dark canyon created by a painful childhood of relentless bullies and parents who weren’t capable of love.
 
When Zak came upon Riley, the puppy’s condition told a story of horrible abuse—three shotgun pellets embedded beneath his skin, teeth turned permanently black from malnutrition. The meeting was one of a man and a dog singularly suited to save each other.
 
Rescuing Riley, Saving Myself  is a touching story of overcoming fear, pain, and the regrets of the past with the help of a much-needed friend, in which “Anderegg served as an angel to Riley and, in turn, Riley did what dogs do best . . . Help us to heal” (Big Dogs Huge Paws, Inc.).
 

I read this straight through ...stopping only to sleep and staying in my pjs until noon the next day to finish. This is an intense and complicated story. I was continually reminded of the Florida 12-year old who recently was bullied to death by her peers as the author struggled to understand and communicate his own experiences to the reader. He did so expertly and it is easy to picture him as the strong and brave and handsome Marine he became. I envy the special relationship he has with his wife and, of course, with the fulfillment of every dog lover's fantasies - sweet Riley. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. Already time for a sequel...I want to hear about The Ellen Show.A fantastic book about a fantastic dog, a real survivor I highly recommend this book. Especially with the professional narration. I found out about Riley via Facebook and I am so happy I did. This book really touched me and goes to show that there are still people out there that are compassionate about animals and willing to risk their lives to help save them. I help rescuing dogs in sever high kill shelters in Southern California. Consequently, I see a lot of dogs, and other animals, that have been abused and/or abandoned and it's so heartbreaking when they can't be saved. Those that make it out of the shelter are remarkably resilient and it so wonderful to see how quickly they bounce back to being a happy dog. Just like Riley.Opening my eyes. I'm a bit bias with this review because I worked with Zak when he and Michelle owned Dream Catcher Yachts. We all knew something was different about Zak. Not in a cruel way but just different. My boss and I had several conversations about Zak, and the way he was, but always concluded that he was just "different".Right from the start of reading this book it became quite evident why Zak was "different". It doesn't surprise me that Zak Rescued Riley. I have to admit that a few times I had tears in my eyes. I came from a very compassionate and loving family. Quite different from Zaks. I was never bullied. I never bullied anyone. I was the one who stood by and watched the bullying and never did anything about it. To this day, 50 years later, I remember watching the bullying happen and just standing by. The guilt. I have gained a much better understanding of bullying and the affect this has on all whom are the recipents of this brutal tactic.Thanks for sharing your story Zak and I will make sure my Grandaughters and all I can reach read this book. Very insightful.Billy Norton
