Dogfella

How an Abandoned Dog Named Bruno Turned This Mobster's Life Around: A Memoir

By: James Guiliani

Narrated by: Tom Perkins

James "Head" Guiliani, a confidante of the Gotti regime, was arrested and jailed on a weapons charge. After his release, he fell back into alcohol and drug addiction - until, one day, he came across an abandoned, abused shih tzu in the street. He rescued the dog, whom he lovingly named Bruno, and in the process, turned his own life around.

Dogfella recounts the story of Guiliani's life, from his involvement in street gangs and the infamous Gotti crime family to his incarceration and eventual redemption through animal welfare. Guiliani's new career has led him to save pit bulls from a dogfighting ring and drive through six-foot snowdrifts to reach 200 cats stranded at a Long Island sanctuary.

Critic reviews

"Guaranteed to warm every animal lover's heart." (Bruce Goldstein, author of Puppy Chow is Better than Prozac)

Beautiful story!

If your an animal lover this story will warm your heart. Such a great tale of a man's life being turned around by an amazing woman and some fur-children.

A man of true animal rescue has emerged

Loved to read how God once again worked behind the scenes to 'equip the called'... that being Mr. James Guiliani. I thank you for answering the call.

Awesome!

Definitely one of the best audiobooks I ever heard... kindness and compassion wrapped up in a wonderful book
