      @@liquidminds That's reductive. Dogs don't care what you call them, it's just a string of meaningless sounds to them, so I'd personally have no problem naming a dog "Plague" or "Terror" or anything like that, it would actually be funny to have a dog with a name like that be an actual bundle of love and joy. Plus "Venom" can be a pop culture reference, the movie came out before that dog was born. I could name a dog "Venom" - although I'm pretty sure they'd get nicknamed "Venven" pretty soon.

    When we adopted my late dog, he had a collar with King on it. The shelter workers all called him that but he flinched when he got called it. We had to wait a day to take him home but when we finalized it so they couldn't adopt him out to someone else, I asked them to change it to the name we were gonna call him on the cage.
    I named him Yugi... Yes after Yu-Gi-Oh because he was very timid and yet very sweet... And I knew once he came out of his shell nothing was gonna stop him.

      Pets are a large and expensive responsibility. Most do not properly care for all required steps needed for animals in general. Most are not intelligent enough to manage their own lives let alone dogs. Since dogs are property, they are easy to receive, free, and from multiple places including off the street. This is why it's so easy for a person to abandon their pet due to inability to care, they got stuck with the dog, or simply cannot afford to take care of them.

    GSD's are beautiful, loyal, loving, protective family members. Absolutely one of my favorite breeds. There is something deeply special about Shepherds. I lost my Girl 3 weeks ago. ..she has Vestibular disease. I rescued her 9 years ago, from a deplorable life. What was done to that baby was unconscionable. I had her for 9 wonderful years, and did my best to UN-DO every evil, rotten thing, AND memory she endured, and every terror she lived through. Her 9 years with me, hopefully erased the evil from her memory. I loved that Dog with all my heart, and she loved me. She was strong, and faithful. She was protective, and loving. My heart is broken over losing her. I still "hear" her moving about the house ... checking on my sleeping family. I pray that God finds me worthy of another German Shepherd...I cannot ever replace her, but I'd sure love to have a new friendship with one. Shepherds... They are remarkable animals.

In her last year or 2 she was diagnosed with several illnesses and the vet told us to let her eat anything she could as it going to be her last year. I cooked fresh chicken pork and beef for her everyday to keep her strength up. If I could afford it I'd rescue every dog. I can't understand people that crate their dogs, Bella our Springer was give full run of her home and never left for more than 4 hours, could sleep with us and go everywhere with us.

While there was lots of satisfaction, the frustration and anger that much of the work engendered was really hard to tolerate. I am watching lots of suspicion and way too many fear responses from this dog. That, along with almost no response to the praise tells me way too much about her former owners; as in people who have no business owning a dog. Project dogs like this girl are demanding but always worth the effort. She just really needs a home where she can trade her affection for affection in return. Most dogs deserve far more than they get.

    She is a lovely lady,inside and out. Sweet lady is also very aware in her traumatic situation. She has pure warmth yet was so nervous to express it. Taking it slow with a dog is alway a good approach.

    Honestly, if i was to get a dog, one that acted like Honey would probably be among my first picks. She reminds me so much of my grandparents' dog, Jess. She was such a nervous creature, despite being a doberman cross. It seems like she'd started out in a pretty abusive home before we got her, and she never fully got over it. She had the exact same eyes, constantly full of emotion, so loving and yet so timid. And she was genuinely one of the sweetest dogs i've ever known in my life, we adored each other.
    Nervous dogs like that take patience for you to grow on them, and for them to come to trust you. But it's so worthwhile, cos they can be such loyal companions for the rest of their lives, and they show their affection in the most adorable ways. And i can tell Honey was being amazingly brave and openhearted to get so comfortable with you so fast. I'm so glad to hear she was adopted, i hope her new family give her a loving, safe environment. ❤

      Not just affection but loyalty! She had affection(initially). She was only entertainment not irreplaceable family. And that is the commitment people should have when they buy an animal that they are introducing a new family member To stick with and stick by for ever till the end of days .New cute, young, rambunctious, old and sick. In fact, I think there should be a type of fund that is held to the side. that people have to pay on buying an animal. to ensure that that animal is backed up in terms of food and maintenance (And only ever payable as food and dog animal maintenance). So when somebody cannot do this the dog is safe. Rule is don't make a buying animals easy .

    This may sound a bit silly, but it reminds me of my sister's chicken. She and her husband built a cute lil chicken shed with lots of space and fenced in walking grounds outside of it and wanted to buy chicken. We went to a farm and they apparently kept the chicken away from all sunlight, the outside world and they put them into a tiny box (about 15 chicken in one tiny box) for us to choose from. When we transported them then, they were TERRIFIED and they first four weeks they were very shy and running away from all human contact. The two of them were a bit sad because they had hoped that the chicken would realise eventually that they had a nice home and they would bring them food and take care of them. It took about five weeks of calm, detached contact, quiet and kind talking and just patience for the chicken to now be perfectly OK with picking grains out of their hands and hopping into their lap to do so. After about two weeks they dared to walk up and down the ledge to their shed themselves, about four weeks in they did not run away as crazily anymore when the two of them came to their shed to give them food and now six weeks in they are happy, expressing their own respective personalities and are laying their first eggs. A few weeks more and they may even be alright with their owners petting them slowly.
    My sister and my brother-in-law said that they don't wanna know which treatment these chicken had experienced ever since they were small (they are still quite young).
    Animals have trauma too and their own personalities. They are no dolls you can push and pull into different directions and, if they did something you disliked, you are just going to discard them like the bond you had never meant anything.😅 I pray that honey will find a loving and patient owner. Those honey eyes and paws make me wanna melt. Sooooo cute❤😊😢

He finally was able to get her out of the bush and brought her home. After a few weeks she finally warmed up to the family. She was the best dog we ever had. I see the same thing in Honey. If I lived close to California I would get her in a heartbeat. With the right care and love, she will be someone’s best dog.

    In the 1960s my family owned 60 acres in the country in a mid-Atlantic state. The humane society had a very small shelter a couple of miles away and my mother got to know some of the people there. A beautiful, small, female GSD came into the shelter but they had no room and my mother brought her home to foster her. As a child on a farm, we took care of the animals but I was informed that the GSD was 'vicious' and that care was needed when feeding, etc. The real story was that she came from a home where a couple had one child, a son, who was beating the dog and the dog eventually began to respond aggressively to the son, and began to dislike male humans. That dog became part of our family, became a strong protector of my younger sibling, and we loved her to the end of her life. It seems that Honey may not have been treated well, likely didn't received the positive love and care she should have, and only needs a good person to turn her around. I hope she finds that home!

    The whole sitting process and just letting her get comfy reminded me of my granddad and his dog, Cuddles. Cuddles was abandoned in the woods about eight miles from the nearest town, out where my granddad lived. He'd put a bowl of food out on the porch and sit with him and talk to him, and after a few days Cuddles would hang out on the porch with him, which then progressed to letting my granddad pet him. After a week, he was able to convince Cuddles to come inside. Cuddles was still pretty iffy on hanging out with a human, so he stayed in the entryway for a week, but eventually warmed up to my granddad and started roaming around the house. They had 10 wonderful years together. My granddad named him Cuddles because, according to him, "he looked like he needed a cuddle and a hug". Honey has the same energy.

Now the dog is the most playful and talkative dog I’ve ever seen. Hes a literally 100 pound baby who submits to the little 20 lb daushand because he knew the other dog was here first.

      I’ve worked with rescue dogs before and the craziest reason for owners to bring their dog (pitbull) to the shelter was because he wasn’t “aggressive” enough. People sometimes come up with the craziest reasons to abandon their pets, so the fact she had 4 owners wasn’t something that scared me off.

      I was taught this in the second grade.

    Back in 1973 I remember adopting our dog Fido. He didn't like that name so we named him Wang after my late great grandfather Mr Sum Yung Wang who was a great explorer. Wang was a good dog for 13 years. RIP Big Wang buddy, hope you are having a big bone in heaven.

    I adopted a dog who was on his 2nd shelter and one failed rehome. He had soooo many emotional issues. I didn’t get him until he was almost a year and had spent almost that entire time in shelters. He’s a cattle dog/pibble mix. When I first got him he wouldn’t stop crying and cowering and wasn’t potty trained. He’s so smart he was house broken in about 1 week and was a completely different dog within 1 month. He still has issues with fear nipping (so we use a Baskerville muzzle on busy trails or meeting new people) and is especially uncomfortable around men. Pretty sure he was abused. Came to me with scars in his head and a chunk missing from his tongue. Besides that he’s the absolute funnest, most affectionate dog I’ve ever had. He’s 11 now but still acts like he’s a puppy. Project dogs are soooo worth it. Please don’t give up on any dogs who have emotional issues. 🖤

      You have no idea what their financial situation is. You don't know how long ago the vacation was, or where they went. You don't know if someone lost a job since then. And the fact that she was hurting another dog might've just been the proverbial straw. I am dealing with two dogs who got along fine, then suddenly they're having fights, sometimes several a week, with blood drawn (including mine). It is very difficult, frustrating, frightening, and disheartening. I'm thankful they are SMALL dogs, I can't imagine going through this with one or both the same size as Honey. I'm figuring out ways to manage them without needing to get rid of one, but that doesn't mean everyone can do that. Especially if there are children around. Better for a dog to be surrendered than a child get injured or killed.

    She looks just like my Lolly. I adopted her here in Spain and she was the same, scared, in a corner. I adopted from a post I saw on fb without ever meeting her in person. She was broken when she arrived and would not leave her corner for a week and I could not get her outside without carrying her (25kg) for several months. She hates treats, they did not interest her, but now she lives for treats. Her bed was in the corner in the living room the first week. So I slept on the couch to keep an eye on her and not leave her alone in a strange place, but after a week I decided to go to my room. I tried to convince her to come, even carried her there, but she ran immediately back to her corner. Then I woke up in the morning and it was the most beautiful gift, she had come in the middle of the night and lay beside my bed on the ground. Although she did not interact with me, this was a great sign, as it was when I left the house and came home and she had taken one of my flipflops from the entrance into her bed to sleep with. Now, 3+ years later, that is still her spot next to my bed, she chose it, even though I'd love her on the bed, she prefers this spot. It took a good two years for Lolly to behave like a more normal dog, and even now she will never be completely fearless and "normal". The amount of abuse she had in her first year of life was unfathomable. She is a princess in the house, but scared on walks and will always be, but that's okay, I am getting used to my girl. I am so happy that you mentioned that the transformations are not always fast. When I got Lolly I had watched so many videos and assumed within a week or few months she'd be completely transformed, but this did not happen and I got really down. But now I realize, I had expectations from social media videos, but what really happened was that (with time) I had to get used to her and she had to get used to me, and then we just figured it out together over time. I just discovered your channel and it brings tears to my eyes to see people making such a difference... and yes! Names are important, they resonate meaning and energy. I am so glad her name is now Honey

We never got rid of them btw and the last dog we got had three litters(10, 10, 3) and we only had others that wanted to adopt them do so, but ended up keeping just two from the first litter just because one of them threw up and the other one ate it🤦‍♀. I wish our dogs had a better life and I wish I knew even more than I did back then but also I was a kid still in elementary school and in&out of the hospital because diseases exists for some reason, but most importantly, I wish ppl would listen to me. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one doing research and experiments on literally everything I come across as long as I know what I'm doing :/
      The only thing they've really only been trained to do(sort of) was sit, stand and "up".(Having them literally jump up on their hind legs to put their front paws in our hands or chest XD ) That one wasn't intended actually😅 but then again, most things are like that... I just wish ppl would always think before doing/saying something and do research if there is any actual true information on the internet and then experiment if not, but common sense ain't common :( and unfortunately, not every little thing you can find will always be found in a "morally correct" way because life ain't fair :/
