BIG Storm | Parcel Opening | Chat on a Couple Questions
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 січ 2023
- We had such a big day in the pool yesterday, we had a bit more of a restful day today. The temperature was much cooler and there was a big storm on its way.
We headed out for a bush walk after cleanup and breakfast. We stop for a chat to answer a couple of big picture questions. We’ve shared it here because we feel it might give a little background to the direction of the farm. We also talk about how it’s all going. Totally understand this may not be of interest to everyone, just fast forward through the talking if it’s not for you. For those that are interested, we know sometimes our followers feel concern for us and so some of these talks are shared to help hopefully alleviate some of the heartfelt concern. We care about you all very much too.
After a chat in the big paddock we head to the pool for some parcel opening. In the middle of it, the storm hits. There are some truly sweet little moments in amongst the chaos. One I have to point out is the peanut butter licking. I’ve used a screenshot as the thumbnail to this video of Miss Red, Hope and Barney enjoying it. That was something else for me. I loved it just as much as the dogs did and I’m hoping you get a giggle too. Thank you to everyone who has sent us parcels. Luke and Wolf picked up another 23 early this morning from the Post Office. We will continue to get through a handful a day. Thank you thank you to everyone. Parcel opening has fast become one of the dog’s favourite activities.
I asked Mayvers doggie peanut butter people to send Sam and Luke some jars of peanut butter for the dogs, and I said I'd pay! I've just received a wonderful email from the company saying another Farm supporter had posted the video to it. Because of the great work Sam and Luke are doing, the Company is donating some jars (I dont have to pay). Wow!
👍👍⭐️⭐️wonderful 😊
That's great news.
Wow! What a great response. Maybe they'll value the advertisement and sponsor Luke. Wonderful supporter team work!
This is wonderful 😊
I buy Mayvers peanut butter for my pup who loves it. Reading your posting makes me glad to support a good Aussie owned and made product. Would be great advertising for Mayvers to get behind The Farm and sponsor them and also send more product to endorse.
Made me laugh when you said “we don’t have a lot of views like some” - the first thing that came to mind was “what not like the influential Kadashians” - some people influence the world on what lipstick to wear while other people CHANGE the world for the better (one dog at a time)💋
spot on, sharon! well said. 😀
BEST Words spoken here. 👌👍✌👏
THANQ a ton, Sharon. 🙏💗🙏💗
BTW, I've Never had Kim nor Kanye on my watch list. No time.
Stay Protected and Blest.
Love from 🇮🇳🙏🇮🇳
Wow , perfectly commented. Thank you. Luke and Sam are no 1 ' Influencers ' as far as I am concerned.
Here we are a year later, and I still agree with you!!
I don't keep up with the mainstream celebs. Nobody could ever accuse me of being a fashionista 😂, but I do like a little lipstick 💄. 😘. Keeps my pucker from drying out here in the desert.
Love everything about the Evans family and pack. Rewatch videos every day!!
Exactly. The trivial gets the most views. Always the case. I find too many people really seem to have no depth. Sad.
I didn't think it was possible to love you two more until I saw this video. Luke brought tears to my eyes when he talked about learning what value the videos are bringing to those of us out here with depression and other mental health issues, since he has had his own journey and knows personally the importance of finding things that make you happy; i.e., the dogs and how they love us unconditionally. It's so true: I struggle with depression and anxiety, and my day begins with The Farm and watching the dogs' antics, learning training tips, and feeling the warmth of the Evans family coming through every moment of these videos. Also, Luke is a man after my own heart: learning about different cultures and cuisines, medical and science facts (Rover's surgery photos may be gross to many, but he and I are both equally fascinated), geography (y'all should put up a world map somewhere and stick pins in it for the location of every package or letter received!), and all the many Renaissance skills it takes to run a farm. It's lovely to see people love learning so much, and constantly be seeking it out. Sam, it would be great to see you in front of the camera more (I know, you hate it, but you're lovely and smart and we enjoy seeing your kind, beautiful face). I hope your dream of a dog sanctuary comes true! Love the kids, love the dogs, bought the calendar and have it just behind me now. Following a calling like yours is never an easy path, but it is rewarding every day. You are helping so many dogs and people, just keep following your heart and you will never regret it. There is a world of supporters out here sharing your laughter and tears. If you should ever get to a place where hard decisions need to be made, just look into the lens and let us know. We will pull together to help you, just like you are helping us. Love and kisses to the great big Evans Pack.
I was just getting an extra fix of The Farm here this evening, and read your comment. Albeit from a year ago (already!!), but I just had to tell you; this is a beautifully stated note. 😊❤ I suppose one could even say that it's timeless, because it's as true today as it was then.
Why can't we all be as good people as the Evans family is? Think of how much better this world would be! ❤
@@manypawsmanytalesAbsolutely. The world would be such a pleasant and happy place with no wars and no animal abuse.
As a dedicated follower I had no idea how the financial side of youtube benefited you, thank you for explaining how it works. I have never missed a video (sometimes multiple views) but have never really felt my viewing contribution from half a world away really made a difference (other than benefitting me with joy). This absolutely makes me want to share your channel with others. Your openness and willingness to share your point of view and life with your followers to benefit dogs who may have never had a chance in life is wonderful. I'm just an average person and also one of those who was quite convinced you may have been making a mistake when stopping Doggie Day Care (worried for you, worried for your clients), I get it now, more power to you, my admiration for the chance you took grows.
👌🙏👍🙏✌🙏👏🙏👌🙏👏🙏
Even our comments and likes on other comments adds up! I’ve never missed a video since 2020. I watched so many videos several times. I unlike and then click ck like again every single time. Don’t know if it makes a difference but in my brain it does. And then share with many friends and family too!
Thanks for explanation of UA-cam. I will now not skip the ads as I really do love what you do and want you to continue. Let’s hope for a joyful and successful 2023. 🌞
Well said!
Nice said 🐶💜🐾
I can't believe how quickly Rover has bounced back from his surgery. I was worried he was going to hurt himself, but evidently he knows his limits. That's a testament to his excellent surgeons and the excellent home care and love.
me too..im worried rover came from a major surgery and probably not allowed to run around yet? Needed to avoid strenous activity and exercises...
@@mariaayeshavercide3767 I think dogs are like kids. They bounce back faster. He looks great!
At a quick glance it looks like who ever did Rover’s suture line did an excellent job.
Another two hours were well spent watching this late afternoon our time (NZ). Each & every video makes my day. Being a member makes me feel that I am playing a tiny part in making the Farm's work possible. Letting a few YT ads run is also only a small cost in time to help the pack live their best life. The Farm community is a very special group of people, many of whom are incredibly kind & generous. I feel fortunate to be amongst you all. To the critics- please leave silently if this channel no longer gives you pleasure. Abuse and trolling have no place here. I can't wait until the next Farm video notification comes through. Thanks, Luke & Sam. Like so many others I feel like I personally know you & the pack from afar. This is no ordinary channel. Love and kisses to all (two & four-legged).
Well said
@@patriciasteele8715 I so agree!
Here here!!
New here and cannot believe anybody has been so mean as to leave negative comments. Some people are just 💩
Today's video talking Abt the special needs of the shelter dogs. I will Never forget the look of about a 1% chance out of a 100 after he first assessed Shadow on his face tht there was any hope for her for rehab or behavior modification and LOOK at Shadow Evans now!!! I think the next most difficult shelter rescue mayb even worse than Shadow was, is our Love Chancey Boy. Yes it takes him longer to learn but he's come 💯 s of Miles n his training which is such a Miracle for Chancey and Thank Goodness Luke has not given up with him If tht had happened we would never see tht big ol smiley LOVING face of tht big headed boy. People all over hav never stopped pulling for Chance an I'm sure like myself won't stop.
I am so sorry people turned away from you when you stopped Daycare. I am so appreciative of what you have done for the shelter dogs, the dogs you have adopted, all the puppies who have homes now because of you and the older dogs who have been adopted. I have mentioned this before, but I found your site when I had just retired and Covid hit in the U.S. the following week. You are so much my extended family and I thank you. I will watch the rest of this video tomorrow as it was late here in the U.S. when I opened your post. Please know I am a faithful follower.
I too took a big break from ddft coz it meant not seeing the puppers we love, Adam & Ash.
Well, I caught up with most of them and Adam on IG & FB.
Many, many former Clients are fiercely loyal to the doggies & Adam.
Seeing Adam & Jason at the Farm for Halloween, opened my heart again. So I empathise with the other ddft fans who dropped out for whatever reason. Many, like me, may be back too.
Hopefully this Comment will not be taken down, as have a few earlier ones. Hurtful, coz I've never been a troll.
@@marietheresa7866 hi welcome back, have missed your input. I just continued watching the Farm after the switch over and there have been so many worthwhile videos since I am so glad I just went with The Farm 'flow'
@@marietheresa7866 ......I too miss the others but this commitment is done with love and attention. The Evans are a lovely family. I'm 72 on a fixed income so my attempts to help are watching, likes and comments. Just yesterday I put 3 separate comments on that vlog and someone deleted two of them within 1 hr of my postings. Only good thoughts for this family..I refer to Violet as Violet Joy because she gives me joy and apparently I was wrong to add a middle name. I'm sorry won't happen again.
@@frangeorge5962 Innocent comments are being deleted or hidden by YT all the time for no apparent reason. From what I gather this is done by artificial intelligence, so no wonder they get it wrong a lot.
I'm 100% sure your comments weren't deleted for referring to Miss Violet as Violet Joy :) (If that's what you meant)
You Tube is crazy with this delete nonsense. It happens over and over on pro Ukraine channels.
Hey Luke and Sam, I was wondering if you could do the "meet the dog" type segment like you used to do. When you used to focus on one dog, whether from your pack, holiday pack or shelter dogs and talk about their breed, their history, characteristics, traits and talents. It's a nice way of learning about the individual pups.
I loved these too!! They were so informative!
I used to really enjoy those, too.
Me too! 🥰 having you describe a breed’s traits then put that together with the individual dog’s character that you have observed so closely makes a really fascinating UA-cam video!! Happy New Year!
Me too! Think about it.
Ooh, I agree, I’ve learned so much!
Oh my God the haters can just bugger off. You guys are amazing 👏 ❤️ we the people still support and love you. ❤️ 😍
Myah, Very Well put.
I take it that you're also speaking for the rest of us. THANQ a Ton 🙏
Haters & baiters appear on many Awesome Channels that help the abandoned, be it people or the 4legged.
Hate hurts the hater far more than the recipient. Leads to early dementia as a rightful "reward".
I hope the Farm takes down the trolls, to save our Happy Space from their venom.
Fond Greetings.
Yes
@Jackie Harrington misery needs company. We always report n block. They can stay away
Haters are just jealous.
👏👍❤️
To Sam and Luke, you’ve made me feel like I have a family again. And you give me the confidence that the choices I make for my dogs (to give these rescues the best life possible and let them be themselves). You make dog behaviour look normal, not something you need to control all the time. Like destroying toys, pooping in the house, squabbles among the dogs. You make laugh and you make me cry (a lot, but thats okay). Thanx, a lot.
Me too. Thanks for sharing. Family doesn't always mean biological. ❤️
No Sam, not boring at all!! Thanks so much for your explanation of how UA-cam revenue works! Now I actually feel like I AM helping you, even though I don't have the finances to send parcels, or donations. I have to watch every minute of every video, just so I don't miss important information about one of my favourite dogs! Or miss seeing Chance's big boofy grin!
I don't have the words to express how much you mean to me, even though we have never met!
I'm the same as Sam, Luke and the children and doggoes are like extended family aren't they. Oh and I almost forgot little Miss Kitty Rose.
I agree I now understand how Utube works for the farm after Sams explanation. I was worried for them when they gave up daycare.
Love your chats as it feels like we're all sitting right there with you. Moving from daycare has allowed you to help so many deserving doggies and I, for one, totally respect and applaud what you are doing. Please continue with your dream and we will all help in any way we can. Love and hugs 💝🥰
Absolutely how I think
Yay Chancey boy.
Remember, the time is " NOW ". Tomorrow never comes. Looking back over the 72 years of my life, I never would have imagined all the opportunities I have taken. I have accomplished and achieved more than I ever thought I would. This was all due to the circumstance and options that were presented to me. Wishing you all the best in your future. Luke and Sam.❤❤❤
There’s just something about squeaking, honking dog toys in the background while Luke and Sam try to discuss anything that just cracks me up every time 😂😂
I love to hear Shadow’s squeaky bark, CUTIE PIES Woo-Woo bark and Til Til’s random bark, music to my ears😊
You can always tell when the staffys have something to say, especially miss V...her bark is so much like her mommy's.
💜🐶❤️
Yes. Naughty kids lol 😂
I will forever be a loyal follower, what ever direction you take. Staffies (Pitbulls) are the most abused dog breed on the planet. What you did for Shadow can never be forgotten and must be respected. It's unfortunate others can't see that its about the dogs and will always be about the dogs. Keep doing what you are doing. Its making a difference. I really do wish you are blessed with good fortune.❤
You are clearly one of a kind. I know it was a difficult decision on all levels, but your skill and love are remarkable and have made serious life changing decisions for these most difficult dogs. People like the two of you are few and far between. Thank you again for all you do.
Thank you for taking the time again to explain the very difficult choices you made to help rescue dogs!!💕 I am so sorry people were not understanding, and some were nasty to you about that choice. Shame on them, and it makes me angry to even hear their audacity. But back to the positive... I could not be more proud to be a subscriber & loyal Farm Fan. You are both just so amazing, and I have true admiration of what devotion and love you have to help the dogs that don't have a family! Yes, the daycare was great, but your work now is beyond amazing! If I ever win the lottery, my dream is to sponsor rescuers like you! Your videos are the highlight of my days, and you all feel like close friends and family! Every dog owns a piece of my heart!!!🥰🐕🐾💕🐾❤️
I’m one of the people who watches your videos (all the way through) because they’re so delightful and I have my special favorite dogs, but also I’ve had a history of severe depression and anxiety. Your videos always light up my life. I have three little dogs (rescue) a poodle, shih-tzu, and Maltese and now consider my home a tiny (1/3 acre city lot) Farm. I get a lot of joy and happiness from your training ideas, I love seeing how happy you seem as a couple, the loving kindness you show your precious children. I tell all my friends about your channel. So I always come away from each video happier, calmer and feeling right with the world. Thank you so much for all you do.
Congratulations on having your very own tiny farm. It sounds gorgeous. 😄 💜
So true 👍😀
I have saved to my favorites some of the videos that have really brightened my days and moods. When I need a real pick me up, I go to one of those for a tried and true laugh. I also have joined for my little contribution. ♥️♥️
OVER TWO HOURS!!!
BRING IT ON!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍❤️🐾
🥰💯🏜🌞😎🌵👍👋
@@teresakiersznowski8483 hahaha, I watch about half while I have dinner than the other half before bed.
Hi all...I started watching during Covid. I'll admit I skipped ads and never hit like. I was so stressed out about everything that I couldn't get the video started fast enough. About 8 months ago I realized I wasn't helping the farm so I went back to the start and rewatched and liked all. Now doing during the ads I check my emails, msgs and do the NY Times crossword on my phone. And for those really long ads I'll read a short news article or start a load of wash or change the sheets. Its amazing what you can get done. It's all about multi tasking to support the Farm. Xo
Brilliant, love your attitude 😘
Great ideas! Thanks 😊
I cried many tears for you. I know the struggles of keeping a small home and yard, pets, raising 3 kids. And working a full time job. It was so hard. I saw the stress on both of you but Australians are such good natured, positive people. A least the ones I’ve had to be pleasure of knowing. But I feel so much better hearing you both talk about this tonight. I will continue to always keep the Farm and Evans family, pack and kitty in my thoughts and prayers but wow, I feel so much better for you guys. I don’t know how y’all ever get any rest or time for each other. But please take that time! God created you both for each other and you have that in your corner for sure! Love to you all and breathing a little sigh of relief for now!
I made a comment on another vid about Purina. They opened a plant in Batavia, Ohio outside of Cincinnati. I am going to spend the day Friday doing work there all day and again mention you guys. When I went to look over what they needed and what parts I needed, it was mentioned by the finance woman I am dealing with about your Channel and that they may look into a sponsorship. She mentioned about if you were committed to the doggos. After Tank, Chop and Hope, let alone Rover. It just adds to the yes they are committed to the pups. I will keep you posted if I hear anything.
Bless your Caring Heart 💖
Brought a lump to the throat.
🙏🌹👌🙏🌹✌🙏🌹👍🙏🌹👌
Mike good for you! I live in Cincinnati as well. Good luck with your idea. You never know what may work out!
So good, Mike! Thank you for advocating for Luke and Sam and The Farm. The years of their work speaks for itself (if the Purina folks need to see any of that proof) and how constant and authentic they are!! 💖
What a wonderful thoughtful idea. I wish you every success going forward. 🙋🙏
👍👍 It would be great if they could get support from Purina. ❤
The reminders on how UA-cam reimburses are sooo important. Couldn't take my eyes off Miss Violet licking Hope. So sweet! Love you guys!❤️🇬🇧
Hi, Karen, on which vid is that explained ?
Or is it on the Members' Channel?
Can you share?
Bless your heart 💖
@@marietheresa7866 It’s on this video (starting from around the 50 minute mark) Luke and Sam give a really interesting explanation of how UA-cam helps.
Who would have thought that a jar of peanut butter could be so entertaining! What a wonderful video! A big thank you and hug to everyone who has donated to the farm. We love the Evans family
Those jars of peanut butter gave me and the doggo's so much joy!! Laugh out loud moments and darling photo ops!!!! ♥️♥️
I really appreciated your chat about trying to learn the ins and outs of UA-cam. I think I never really understood how the ads worked. I started letting all the ads play on your channel a while back, but now I’m doing that for all of smaller channels I watch.
Dogs and peanut butter, that’s just a match made in heaven. And Chance and his giant smile just always makes my day!
Seeing y’all just settle in the shade and chat was lovely. Irene and I appreciate the struggle. We can relate. We’re glad you recognize what you bring to so many. The whole package: Joy. Sorrow. Excitement. Laughter. Humility. But helping the rescue dogs, seeing their happiness. That’s what keeps bringing us back.
Agree 💯 totally 💯 🥰🏜🌞😎🌵👍👋
Agree !!!❤
It brings me back every night to watch again and again. And if there’s not a new video I just rewatch one of my favorites. It like a dose of happiness before bed. I sleep better and feel better the next morning. If I find myself feeling a little blue during the day, we’ll I just turn on a video. I will definitely add this video to my saved list for a quick laugh and pick me up. I laughed until I had tears in my eyes over the PB. The previous video I cried at the letter Sam read. I feel all the same emotions like you, it keeps me engaged and excited for the next video. Thank you to Luke, Sam and their children. Thank you also to the Farm Family Community. ♥️♥️
The peanut butter licking was a hoot 🤣 who knew Miss Violet's tongue could stretch that far! Poor Gus, all that parcel opening has pooped him out, he can't keep his eyes open 😴
Thank you for everything you do and for the love and support you give so freely to all animals! ❤️
So nice of you. Thank you. ❤
Yes. Very generous of you.
Unfortunately, with super thanks, UA-cam takes 30% of the donation. I hope luke and Sam can add to their website a donation section that way they will receive 100% of the donation.
I’ve said before ….I’m disabled and cannot contribute money, but letting the ads play is a way that we can give back without paying out of pocket to help monetized videos and I’m so grateful you mentioned that! let the ads play make a cup of tea😂❤
I leave the room and if I've misjudged it and left it too long I rewind the video a little. The ones that play music I dance to!
I must say, this was the silliest box opening ever! The peanut butter faces. Maggie and Violet trying to fit in boxes. All the dogs realizing by now that box opening is the BEST TIME ever. I don’t know how Maggie fit herself into the box. And it really seemed as though Miss Violet was licking the other dogs as a stress relief for the thunder storm. She is such a delight. Her can-do attitude - it might take a while, but she figures out each area and what is going on with her incredible nose, and what additional information her ears and eyes provide, and then just joins in. I love watching her just run and run in the paddocks and bush, and do her laps in the big pool running from ramp to ramp, and then just jumping in and swimming as fast as she can - I am constantly amazed that she doesn’t crash into dogs and objects. And the other dogs know she is different, and they just jump over her or zip around her. Sometimes, I could swear that Miss Red nips off to nudge her back to the group sometimes. We could definitely learn from Miss Violet!
Such a lot of fun!
Seeing Hope’s progress is just everything!!! ❤❤❤
Seeing Miss Violet lick her ears and face in the background just warmed my heart so much.
There should be a love button like Facebook has. I watch Hope now and almost forget how shut down she and Faith were when they arrived. To see Hope in amongst the throng is so beautiful. I adore her eyes. They say eyes are the mirrors of the soul and hers are so luminous. Close to another favourite animal (cow). So beautiful.
@@urbansprouts7416 Ditto. 💜
I look forward to these videos every day now!
It's like a tv series!.. Everyone has their own story!.
I enjoy every minute of them....
🥰
EVERY>SINGLE>MINUTE!!!!!!!!!!
EVERY>SINGLE>MINUTE!!!!
Me too 😊
I love Luke's head-cam because when he turns his head, we see what he is seeing. I don't know if it's comfortable, but it makes great video! Wolfie sure loves the water spigot. I always enjoy hearing your discussions about various topics. I find it distressing that people were mean to you about changing your business from day care to rescue. I love that you're helping dogs that no one else wants. You're doing work that many of us find so valuable and loving. Ignore the nay-sayers and follow your hearts. 💗💚💛💜💙 PS: The type of coffee pots you received are called French presses. You put in ground coffee, pour in boiling water, and wait 5 minutes. Then you slowly lower the press, catching the grounds and pushing them to the bottom of the pot.
I love the head cam as well. Another benefit is seeing Sam more often when Luke turns to talk to her with it on. Great video option. 👍
Look at Chance and Roscoe so relaxed with each other ❤ if that was all you achieved last year ( which in no way was it) that would be enough. Thankyou again for what you do for all the dogs ❤
So very true.
Agree 💯 totally 💯 🥰🏜🌞😎🌵👍👋
Oh Sam, Luke sitting on the rock with Till Till, Cutie Pie, Roscoe, and I think Gus and Billie was there is so frame worthy. It’s just beautiful!
I thought the same. I’ve noticed in many videos that Luke more often than not pauses at this area and takes it all in, as I recall him saying that it is his favourite view on the farm. 🐶💜🐾
@@marinarice2000 Luke's favourite view would make a lovely puzzle 🌝👍xx
Always thought Sam you just fell into loving dogs because of Luke but really you had the same dream as Luke - how amazing you found each other
Remarkable indeed. And rare.
Hope is 100% a mummy's girl; with Shadow, Miss Violet and Miss Red next in line!
Before I started watching these videos…I never realized how much is involved in training these babies…plus home and family responsibilities…you need money to live but this has never been just about money…you genuinely love these babies…the healing that takes place within both the fur babies and you and your family and your audience…is amazing….the reaction of Rover when he went back to the kennel…says it all…he saw and felt the LOVE…and he did not want to lose it…you both have an amazing way…with these babies…love is what it is all about…I think you made the right decision…NOTHING REPLACES THE LOVE THAT YOU GIVE THESE BABIES EVERYDAY…
Love Lily and her sticks. How she loves to jump with them keeping them from Luke 😂😂
It saddens me to think that you had to deal with terrible things when you made the right decision to help the dogs that needed you the most. Everyone that watches could see how hard of a decision it was to make for you both. You are the most kind hearted people to both human and animals and it’s hard to hear that people thought it was ok to act in this manner. I began watching as I am local and have followed Dee and her team since early days. I started following along when you brought the first shelter pack home (Yo-yo broke me too) and became a member of behind the scenes when you made the decision to concentrate on shelter dogs . I’ve cried along with Sam and smiled happy tears when each of the dogs have found their forever homes. I admire the work you do every day and am so thankful you decided to help those that everyone else gave up on. I will continue to support you in this path. I also am so in love with Chance and the happy boy he is these days 💙 all because of the right decision you both made
I agree. Unbelievable to me how nasty some people were!
If Maggie had side view mirrors she could FLY. She is so rhythmic turning her head side to side. If you can’t hear the bike you better watch it! Gus is hysterical watching the gifts - must be something for him. Even Chance is catching on to parcel day. ❤
I have added 5 friends to your viewers. I will make sure we allow ads to run. If everyone can get some friends or family to start watching, it will make an immense difference. I do not know one dog lover who wouldn't love this channel. Let us help the Evan's people and pack keep making us feel joy.
I've managed to get three of my friends to subscribe.
Since I watched my first one 6 weeks ago, the subscribers have increased from 104k to 109k!
And now we are up to 111k.😊
Chance just adores Luke. And I think Luke feels the same about him!
Sam and Luke, nothing you talk about is boring! I'm in the older age range being 56 years old and found the talk about UA-cam and how it generates revenue for you interesting. I started letting the ads run after it was mentioned on an earlier video. I'm one of those that now goes to make a coffee while the ad runs. I love everything about your work and family. I feel blessed to be able to help a little in your work for the rescue dogs by just watching your brilliant videos. You truly are special people and were made for each other. I will also share your videos in the hopes that some of my Facebook friends will also watch them 👍 bless you both and may you continue to flourish in your new rescue sanctuary mission ❤
There are so many things we can do while the ads run.
I think anybody who wants their child to follow in their footsteps can take a leaf out of Luke's book..
Luke is teaching Wolfie to love the farm very early in his life. If Luke would have waited until Wolf was much older, running the place would have become much more daunting for him.. maybe even make him think: farm = chores (and i believe a lot of teenage boys are allergic to chores) 😆.
Wolf is yet a baby but i can already see that he will care for the farm very well, as his dad does. 😊 He loves it and Luke is Top Dog for making everyday a day of learning, discovery, and adventure for The Little Wolf. 🐺
Hi, L A 🙏🙏
And to think Wolf is well under 2 years of age ‼️
Children listen very little to what they're Told..... BUT they follow Most of what they See 👀👀
Wolf's a case in point.
BTW, this Farm Community 👥👥👥world wide is no less therapeutic, going by their genuine care & concern for the Farm 🚜🐄🌾 and all it stands for, as revealed by their endearing, even fun-packed Comments. ✌✌✌✌
@@marietheresa7866 I agree. 😊 Teach by example. I'm betting the evans children will also adopt their parents excellent work ethics, industry and resilliency.
I didn't realize how us watching your videos helped financially, but I'm glad it does because seeing y'all interacting with all those happy grinning canine faces, wagging tails, and seeing Wolfy being one of the pack is just plain entertaining. And I love how you just let them be dogs. I can understand why Chopper refused to leave that first day.
Maggie was just trying to make sure that every last morsel has been eaten off the grill😂
How adorable was Miss Violet sleeping in the box! She melts my heart! ❤ I hope Luke doesn’t throw her out with all those package wrappers he’s putting in that box!! 😮❤
Probably the best smelling box after the Lebkuchen Schmidt opening yesterday. Her nose will have been working overtime. 🤔🤗❤️
@@christinecook6310 I know that’s right!! I gained 5 lbs just watching them eat!!
@@denitalowe2959 totally agree. I saw that box and started salivating!
Lovely take 👌👍👌👍👌👍👌👍
Those beautiful German tins were amazing and the delights inside. Yummy.
😋
I’m glad to hear things are working out for you, I sure hope it continues to work and grow in the future. Many people are isolated for various reasons , many health related, but other reasons as well. Even though my daughter and family are just upstairs if I need them their lives are very busy and I am alone a lot. I’m fine, have lots to do but your videos and some others, just cheer me up everyday. Thank you for the time you’ve put into sharing with us all.
I’m hoping many of the watchers who are not subscribed will subscribe now, it doesn’t cost anything, you don’t have to make videos , no one will bother you to do anything. I’ve had an account for 12 years, subscribed to many, many🤣😂 channels and have never posted even a second of video.
The more of us who subscribe and let the ads run ( I mute some occasionally if it’s driving me crazy) the more it will help support the dogs and the family. Just the cost of feeding this many dogs , never mind the medical costs is crazy. 🥰🙋🏼♀️
I use the time when the ads are playing to read the comments from fans, and I turn the sound off until you come back! My understanding is that if you have you tube premium, which has no ads, the farm still gets paid as if you'd watched the ads......is that right Sam? In my humble opinion you definately made the right decision to end daycare and do the rescue/rehab training. Luke is uniquely skilled in this field, the proof is in the dogs we all love to watch. If we were talking about children, then this is like moving from the poshest private school to a youth detention centre, and trying to get the misunderstood kids back on the right track to lead fulfilling lives.
When I first started watching these videos I was so blown away by the fact that most of the followers knew every dogs name something I didn’t think I would be able to do. Yet as I started viewing your videos well I realized that I now know all their names and their personalities.
Same for me. Took about a week of binge viewing!
Miss Violet in the box..now that is a special delivery. 😍 Peanut butter pawty 😂
You Guys are so awesome - and yes we can certainly let the Add’s run, come on guys and dolls let do this, teamwork makes the dream work. Such a necessary Project for such precious dogs that need Luke and Sams help and they need all our help no matter how small our contribution. Keep up the great work you all do ❤️🌹
Hope more supporters will now let the ads run. And like everyone's comments.
I’ve just become a member after 2 years of watching 🥰
Welcome to the farm 🥰 💯 from AZ USA 🇺🇸 best place on UA-cam 🥰💯🏜🌞😎🌵👋👍
@@bobu1024 thank you I’m so exited xxx It’s my favourite channel xx
I watched for a while, and when they were in lockdown, I became a member 🥰💯🏜🌞😎🌵👋👍
Luke's Dad has been busy. You can tell immediately where they start the bush walk. I'm glad Luke said what happened to Maggie, we were trying to figure out who the new dog was. That was so sweet that Hope waited for Sam. Love seeing her growth.
Please it's not boring!!! Keep doing the chats‼️😁
None of the chats on this channel are ever boring are they?
The new head gadget shows just how fast Joey is, wow.
Yes it does!! Got a little dizzy at first because Luke’s head is always moving in different directions as he’s watching all the dogs. It’s great tho!
She’s like a bolt of lightning ⚡️
Some of your members told us months ago about watching the ads without skipping. It is torture at times😆but we know it’s for our sweet Farm Dogs❤❤❤
You can also click on the ad which counts as engagement.
For the longer ads, watching 30 seconds or more counts as a view, so you don't have to sit through 60 minute commercials for hair loss treatments and the like!
@@sq5 LOL
You can open one window and allow the video and all the ads to run with the sound muted. Then open a second window and watch the video and skip the ads (or just skip the long ones).
@@pvdogs2 - That's a good idea! For the 30-40min ads, I let them play for at least 40sec to a minute before I skip. It still counts as engagement.
@@rlight7666 Yes, it counts but they make more money if the ad is watched in full.
I really enjoyed hearing about the nuts and bolts of UA-cam. Plus it helps us loyal subscribers understand how we can help by watching.
Luke and Sam you may have heard of this place in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, USA, Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctury. Run by a retired businessman and his wife, they provide care for senior dogs for their final years. They have quite a staff and about 100 dogs currently. Their site might give you some ideas for the future.
I live about 40 minutes south of the Mt. Juliet sanctuary and can attest it’s a wonderful and loving place. I follow them on Facebook.
Love watching Lily's graceful stick dance. Yep second day of watching. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend.
Watching along and then a shot of Cutie Pie wedging her little person between Tilly and Luke, spontaneously laughed out loud.😃😁🤣🥰
The video from the handfree head attachment is awesome! When Luke is standing on the rock looking out over the sloping land 17:13 it looks like a postcard, so picturesque. I love the "girlfriends" relationship between Sam, Hope and Shadow, and Miss Red and Miss Violet, the we support each other when we need it most female bond.
Sam, those girls sure do love their mum! Hope, Maggie, Shadow, V and Red. So sweet to see!
Yup💞Sam has her own Lil Pack of Ladies.🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🤗
They are ALWAYS making sure Mom Sam is ok & bringing up the rear! Love those girls ❤️❤️❤️
Yes….unlikes cancel out the likes !
I mean ChanceyBoy loves Luke so much , he's such a sweet marshmallow! Its so cool to see all the dogs so pensive during the storm. Love you TillTill! The coffee thermos is called a FRENCH PRESS! Love you guys
Every time I see Maggie it just cracks me up. She does look like she got into a bar room brawl. It reminds me of Shadow and the "who ate the soup video"🤣🤣
Ha ha!! Yeah, Shadow and the soup, that's a classic!! Xx
@@clairewatson3990 Yes it is🤣🤣
😆😆😆
😂😂😂😂💖💖💖💖
My favourite 🖤🐾🐾🥣😂😂
I found you while I was furloughed from my job for 15 months during COVID. I was so anxious and depressed, and getting to know you and your family helped me so much. Thank you for highlighting not skipping ads and how that helps.
I look forward every day to a new video. I work from home and can open your video and let it run on my second monitor while I am working.
I love all the doggies and, as a cat owner Kitty Rose! Love from Dallas, TX, USA
Re income from UA-cam - I'm happy to be able to help in such a simple way by enjoying each video you produce. I'm the better for it and so happy it helps you. 🥰🥰
PS - I will stop 'skipping ads' now! I didn't understand.
All the dogs seem so much more relaxed around Chance now. So nice to see! If Gilbert was there, it would be fun to see what he films after he steals your hat and plays keep away while the camera is attached!
Hello Luke & Sam
I have been a member for quiet a few years now but this is the first time I have made a comment on your channel. I love all the dogs, big & small. I must say Joey & Bandit are my favourites. I can’t believe how much I love this site & look forward each day to your videos. The longer the better as far as I’m concerned as I don’t watch TV these days. So boring..I’m hooked for sure. I have a new 6 months old Tenterfield Terrier and am trying to put all your methods into practice. Not always easy. He’s a stubborn little bugger. Keep doing what you are doing. Love it all. You are both so natural in front of the camera. I soooo look forward to your videos each day. 💖
🥰💯🏜🌞😎🌵👋👍
Ah remember when Ms Violet used to take naps half way up the hill/bush and then got carried home 🤣
How blessed are you both to have found each other and your dreams are the same. Love to hear your great conversations that you share with us. When you married you truly became one. ❤
Luke and Sam you must do what you feel is right for your family and the doggos! The people (including me) could never know what exactly you are going through or were your business is or supporting your family. I don't know where some people get off trying to tell you what to do. Over here in America we call them Karen's and kens! So God Bless you and your family and the love and care you give to your canine family!
So many gems in this video. It’s glorious to see how happy Hope, Rover, Chance, Tank and Chopper etc are, your efforts are so worth it and we’re incredibly grateful to you for bringing this light and love into our lives. (PS I always let the full ads run since you explained it a few months ago. I’m happy to know it’s helping support your work).
Luke, Wolfie is a mini you. He’s learning well and young. Another fun day at the farm. I’d say in 2 yrs he will be driving you around!!!
Maggie is just hilarious in her encouragement for Dad to keep up with her prancing
I love how REAL you are. Lost it laughing 😃 when Luke was saying no, Barney cannot take on Chance. 🤣🤣
My favourite moments are : watching Rover run, skinny hips; Gus loves his ear rubies and his hair is soooooooo silky; Chance's eyes looks like he has eye liner on; I always worry when Maggie, Cutie Pie and the Boston run in front of the atv/motorbike. Please dont worry about doing the doggy daycare. Maybe have more swim parties(that was a great time), I could see your enthusiasm. But I do miss Gilley taking your hats( CLASSIC).
Thank you for explaining how getting paid by UA-cam works. I was misinformed about skipping the videos so I will be changing my habits going forward. I can't afford to donate the way I would like to, so watching the videos will have to do for now.
Wow! What a storm! I will always be thankful to the Doggy Day Care for helping me get through the worst of the pandemic. As a nurse, I had a closeup experience with the tragedy that fell across the world each time I went to work. Knowing that there was a video ready for me to watch when I came home from work in the morning that featured happiness, really, really helped a lot. Now the world is starting to settle down a little and the Farm is in a new stage. I am still here because there is stiil happiness in the videos that help to end my day on a good note. But most of all, there is love. Love of family, love of dogs, love of life. Saddness at times, of course, but that's life, isn't it? But through your videos, the saddness and the happiness is shared so that we can all help each other get through and appreciate it together. Thanks for all you do and for taking the time each day to share it with us. Each dog has a special place in my heart, as do each of you. Wolfie is a guaranteed smile just watching him exploring his world and splashing in mud puddles with that lovely smile on his face. Package opening has become one of my favorite times, too! The kindness and thoughtfulness of so many people shows that goodness still exists in this world. Best wishes for the New Year! I'm not going anywhere!
💗
Terrific comment, and thanks for all the work you do getting/keeping people well.
You bring me so much joy... I'm disconnected from my family and lost my 15.yr old Jackie in April... Getting to watch your beautiful family and the great work you do gives me joy..
I love hearing how you keep going and that I am contributing in a small way.. Love you Evans family from Gippsland in Victoria 💕💕💕💕
So sorry about your loss.
Jackie is looking with love upon you from Doggie Paradise across the 🌈Rainbow Bridge 🌉
So sorry for your loss 🌈 lost my 9 yr old Bella end of July and my sister Jan 2. I know what you're feeling 🥰💯🏜🌞😎🌵👋👍🌈🌈🌈
@@bobu1024 oh Bob, so sorry. 🙏🙏🙏💔💔💔
@@teresakiersznowski8483 thanks 🙏💔❤️🩹
I shall never skip an ad again! I try not to but forget. It’s a great feeling to know I can contribute to your cause by doing something so simple! Thanks for all you do Luke and Sam!
I am so happy you opened your home for abandoned dogs. That needs a family to call there own
We need a special micro phone for Luke on windy days - it’s really hard to hear what he is saying sometimes when you folks are having a Q and A outside - maybe put up a wish list for us supporters to donate to .
They have already received one, just don't remember to bring it with them 😁
Rover you are a super pup! Speedy recovery with so many sending love & healing🙏🏻😇🐾💚🐾
Kudos to surgeon for the stitches which stay in place on wiggly animals.
Girl with the dogs is from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, not far from where I am. She's a super groomer and also help shelter dogs and a lot more, love her channel!❤
I love Girl with the Dogs too. What a wonderful gift package from Jenn.
No great loss losing the support of those disgruntled subscribers. Who are they to dictate how you run the farm? I've really enjoyed watching all that goes into rehabilitating the rescue dogs. It must be immensely rewarding to be able to save their lives. It was Chance's last chance.
Well said Elizabeth!
@@abinormal1410 ❤
Absolutely. I would write a few choice words about them if it weren't for You Tube censorship!!
Two words, peanut butter 😂😂😂😂 miss violet never disappoints us! If only that sweet little doggie knew how much joy she brings! And Maggie too! I thought it was Maggie to start with, then I saw her facial markings and thought it was another holiday dog! 😂 but the peanut butter was just the funniest! The enjoyment in the doggies eyes said it all! 👀
These two deserve court jester or joker titles - never fail to amuse
I bet that "ring for tea" mug and bell was meant for Auntie Sam to ring!!
Rain or sun, life is wonderful at The Farm with all the beautiful loving fur babies and loving human angels😇😇😇. Thank you ♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸
Every Stick is a community stick to Miss Violet💜
So my favorite doggo used to be Maggie, but now I think it's Maggie and Chopper, he's so loving and i love those ears. He also always looks tragic when he gets out of water. Also love his candlelight dinner cuddles with Luke and their bond. Truly adorable those two.
Girl With The Dogs is a great dog grooming channel. Vanessa uses the Equigroomer to de-shed the dog's coat after blow drying. The Happy Hoody she uses when drying a dog to muffle the noise from the high velocity dryer for dogs who don't like the loud noise.🙂
I had the same thoughts when I saw the groomer. Ànd it’s great for the horses.
OMG...I was laughing so hard. Miss Violet is such a cutie. The Peanut butter part, the box she really wanted as a bed. And all the sweet kisses she gave. Such a wonderful video. Craziest box opening ever!! Loooved it so much!! Every second of it! ❤️🐾☺️
I just always love the videos, over and over again. The dogs, the kids, the property, the good-natured cheeky comments! My day usually begins with a cup of tea, 2 dogs at my feet and a farm video. Thank you so very much.
Yep, Kim.
I enjoy the "cheeky" Comments as much as Every one of them.
Wonderful, caring, generous fans from home & abroad is what the Farm has won and for All the Right Reasons.
When the ads are on, I have ample time to scroll thru and Reply to some.
Win-Win for All.
In fact, additionally, I let any long Farm vid that I've watched, play out again, while going about my chores. Thus the ads run again and that's my daily tithe.
Love from 🙏🇮🇳🙏🇮🇳.
I like good-natured cheeky comments, yeah I spent hours reading those comments with a laugh on my face.
@@marietheresa7866 I like to let the long videos run too while I'm off doing other things. There are some long compilations of videos that run for very long times. Sometimes I use a second youtube provider to do it.
I am so glad you got the truck and Narnia books. This video, just the length alone, was a great evenings entertainment. So many fun and laugh out loud things. And yes, I lasted the whole video with no problem. Love as always from Princess Lizzy and me in South Florida US
It is nice to see the friendships that form, Shadow/Hope, Joey and little Billie. The peanut butter section is priceless and should be made into its own bit. Who could have guessed a gift of a small jar of peanut butter would feed 20 plus dogs and be beloved by all (but one)? At one point we realized the dogs could smell the Squeaky Pigs, the balls must be similar. As usual, a box can be a perfect "best" gift, as Miss Violet has tried out at least two of them... Thank you to all.
Somehow I feel like if any dog can help Hope, it might be Shadow. I have no reason to back that hunch, though 😆
Rosco’s brusque “No thanks” to the PB took me back to the recent video in which Luke and Jase were discussing the dogs. Luke explained that Rosco doesn’t like to eat with the rest of the dogs, thinks his position as Deputy sets him apart, that he should only eat with the humans. So no way was he going to stick his tongue into the same jar as all those other dogs. So funny.
You can talk as long as you like about anything to do with the farm. I just adore you two and the whole community!
If we listen we will always learn something!
Wow an over 2 hour video! Where to start.
Sam nothing you all do at the Farm is boring! I don’t know about anyone else but I could watch 2 hours of the dogs sleeping and be happy with that.
There are long videos meant for dogs to watch when home alone but they are perfect for us too!!
Perfect timing. I just got sent home from work early due to impending MAJOR storm so settling in for a FARM movie. 😊❤
Ps…LOVE that Hope is in the middle of the Peanut Butter feast pic. You go girl! 👍👍
Be safe and keep warm.
