    When dogs roll over on their backs like that, that's a sign of trust, You did a great job. ❤️

    I have worked in Rescue so I have experience with foster families, adoptive families and the best outcome of a Forever Home. .So clearly you are the special person we always seek out . Your combination of intent, sensitivity,, planning and love to give most often works out as a permanent home.Best of happiness with you new family member. PS.. The end of the video where the dogs were happily playing together made me cry.

    He looked so sad in the beginning of the video, and at the end of the video his eyes had totally shifted. A light had been lit in his eyes, you could see peace and happiness in his eyes. This, just like the video about Rio's story, made me bawl my eyes out. It makes me so happy to see animals get such a loving forever home. Well done, Lyss. ❤

      I have to imagine the drive was a little triggering for him as that’s how he was dumped. My girl was abandoned in a hotel room and I didn’t know that about her until 6mos of having her and took her on a trip during that time and she was sooo sad and nervous in the hotel room.
      He looks so happy now! Congratulations!

    It was so awesome of you to get another rescue pooch. He is great… very sweet. I have a rescue dog that was found in a ditch with her brothers and sisters next to her deceased mom. I got her when she was 3 months old (now 8 yrs. old) and she has been the best and sweetest dog that I have ever had. Half Boxer and half Vizsla. Great video!

      @@REGRETLYSS1 Anyone that is aristocratic in their views is afraid of telepathy.
      In order to focus on telepathy, human beings MUST focus on love. Love is honesty and respect ONLY. Violent men always try to paint love as either gay or feminine in more mature, psychologically developed males. They are attempting to control ideas and beliefs (vibe) with lying and manipulation (anger).
      In order to focus on love, human beings MUST be emotionally secure within. Anyone that is forceful and aggressive is NOT secure in the mind or persona. They are mentally unstable. They are afraid of being figured by others within, so they attack, judge, and provoke. A violent temperament and machismo are ALWAYS synonymous.
      To focus on love, which is honesty and respect ONLY, requires humility and vulnerability. Violent, aristocratic, aggressive human beings do not participate in real, authentic emotions. The personas they present socially are phony and artificial. They reside in shallow emotions ONLY, which are insulting and threatening to other people.
      Religion is used to promote status and popularity in the selfish individual ONLY. Popularity is centered around social cruelty and depression, not humility and empathy. Religion is an authoritarian, aristocratic, image-conscious social clique centered around corny and wooden acting skills, not REAL beliefs in God or the hereafter.
      Human beings only care that life after death is real. They could care less about religion at all. It’s time to get real, and leave lying (authority) behind. Human beings chose either to evolve (telepathy), or stay fearful and conformist (alpha / authoritarian).
      Jealous (violent) human beings will always attack friendly (non-violent) human beings to build a social life. All religious human beings share this idea and MUST support it. If they do not support authority and conformity, they are not accepted by anyone that is religious.
      ALL human violence and aristocratic thinking is against women socially. Machismo has nothing to do with Islam, Russia, China, communism, self defense, or any other manufactured threat. Males want control over women in their own communities. Machismo is not protective. It is selfish manipulation towards women.
      There are no leaders, but only lowlifes pretending to be. Strong human beings are friendly, mature, wise, and on equal footing socially at all times. This prevents human violence in all ways, as well as manipulation of the truth.
      Focus on meditation. Watch and listen to the mind within like a TV and a radio. Absolute mental silence for indefinite periods of time is never the point of meditation.
      The other side (spirit world) is unconditional love and understanding, not demonic or evil. Hearing messages within from Source is not schizophrenia. It is telepathy.
      The ideas being shared by men are extremely cruel towards women socially, and this is exactly why religion still exists. Religion is for those shunning personality growth and character development.
      Dogmatic beliefs, such as Christ consciousness, chakras, and Hindu symbols, are always surrounded by authoritarianism and machismo. Those are images of spirituality without substance.
      Anything authentic and sincere regarding spirituality will center around simple ideas such as Source, attraction, non-violence, equal footing socially, and telepathy.
      The ONLY way to focus on telepathy is to be non-violent completely, self loving (humble), anti-conformist, and anti-authoritarian.
      Love is strong mentally. Fear is mentally weak. Love IS telepathy. Telepathy, love, and giving are synonymous.
      Lying turns the human mind crazy. End mental illness (selfish thinking) for good. End religion.

    Look at how he lays on his back… that shows trust! Dogs wont expose their belly like that if they are not feeling Safe & Comfortable! Such a Great addition to your Family! He will definitely Keep you Safe. He definitely has Pyrenees in him. I have had 3 Pyrenees in my life and they are the Greatest Dogs ever. One of mine Saved my life Two separate times. First he Protected me without hesitation when a Guy with a Knife came out of an ally and came at me. He Went straight at the guy, his Hackles up and Teeth on Full display. His Front paws on the guys shoulders he was looking him straight in the eyes. He went from Sweet, Calm Mellow dog to Cujo in the blink of an eye. The guy with the knife turned, Dropped the knife and ran like hell.. My Pyr chased after him for about 30’, Barking, Growling and Looking Fierce as any attack dog dog I’ve every seen! As soon as he felt I was safe & the Threat was gone he turned right back into our Sweet, Tail Wagging Ball of Fluff. He came straight back to me.. Since I dropped the leash as soon as I saw his Hackles go up! I was scared at that moment. The second time he saved my life I was skating on the Bay by where I lived. As I was skating back toward the docks where we would put our skates on, the ice gave way and I fell in and under the ice. I was finally able to get to the edge of the ice and try to get out. I kept slipping back into the water. My Pyr walkways laid by my boots.. usually on them (keeping the warm for me I guess). I began to call him toward me with a Chunk of Ice in my hand.. we played a lot of Fetch prior to this incident. As he got close to me I was able to get ahold of his leash.. them would show the chunk of ice to him and tell him to “Get it, Get it” and I threw it. He took off after the chunk of ice , pulling me out from the freezing water. I rolled away from the hole and he came to me realizing I wasn’t in a good state. I went to get up but he didn’t let me.. he laid on top of me, not letting me up. The fact he weighed more than I did made that job easy for him.. when I finally stopped shivering he decided it was time to go. He got off me, nudged me with his nose and looked at me with a look of “Let’s go”. I was so lucky on those two occasions to have such an amazing Dog! His name was “Ever-So-Ready” that’s the name the breeders we got him gave him. We called him “Ready”. The perfect name for him we learnt as he showed he was Ready for anything that happened. Another time a Dog from down the street who was not treated well by its owner got loose.. as I was just stepping off the sidewalk to step onto our stairs to the porch that dog attacked me.. he was big. I won’t say the breed because it wasn’t the dogs fault it was mistreated and on a heavy chain 24/7.. it’s owner mistreated that dog.. but it did attack me. My Mom opened the front door so I could hopefully get away from the dog and into the house. As she opened the door Ready charged out of the house and attacked the Dog that was attacking me. He Body slammed into the Dog, And Started to hit it with his Paws.. almost like he was Boxing it.. he didn’t bite the other dog.. he used his size to get it off of me. I was able to get up and run into the house as Ready continued to fight the other dog. The dog finally ran away and Ready put a short chase toward him.. But stopped about 30’ from our house, barking and growling at the dog. As soon as he felt it was safe.. Again he turned around and came back to meat the front door. We checked him and he didn’t have a single mark on him. I loved that dog so much. He was a big teddy bear until something happened that he needed to go into protect mode.. that is the Three times he saved me.. So just saying Pyrenees are amazing dogs. Having the Traits of a Pyr is awesome and I’m sure your boy is going to be amazing for you! He is already comfortable from the look of it!! Congratulations

    OH DEAR!!! This is starting to seem like Clickbait .... only a few weeks and GAVE UP KOJI ALREADY!!! ... in your video of explaining your decisions to give him up you made it WAY too much about YOU when Koji and Rio are the REAL little Angels that pay the price ... they're the kids ... you're the adult ... they're in your safekeeping Spiritually, Phisically and Emotionally.
    I mean just say what happened and don't fluff it up by making all about YOUR feelings and morals and self growth. Your repertoire is just a moral high ground do-gooder speech
    about you ... the times when you got him and when you re-homed him.
    Reality is ... you thought you could do it but you couldn't. PERIOD.
    All the blah blah about commitment and building family when you found him ... if you get up too high about how great you are ... when you crash it's just harder and more embarrassing ...YOU GAVE HIM UP NOW HE'S IN A NEW HOME ...
    AGAIN ... difficult yes .. but good for him ...and it's
    hard on sweet Rio, too
    Breaks our hearts but stuff happens.
    I get it ... things change and certainly OK to rehome it's just all that lip service and justification statements you performed... all the pretention and bravado about it ... that's what tugs at people
    Did you CLECK IN with yourself before attachments grew? So you did not have ANY idea that you would be traveling too much to have a dog like Koji?? No clue?? Sure this is a blessing for Koji in the longrun....you just made such a big deal about speaking to your changes and hard decisions in your recent video to explain WHY you gave Koji up ... why not just get real and just say you bit off more than you can chew... in the video where you brought Koji home you made such a big deal about BUILDING family etc etc...
    You're a lovely young woman ... Don't let keeping you on brand become narcissistic and get to your head.
    Very happy for your new home ... just wish Koji fit in with your lack of planning.

    Awww so lovely to see this old doggy so happy and loved and the fact he lays on his back exposing his vulnerable underside is a mark of deep trust from any dog especially from a rescue dog that had been abandoned

    Great Pyres are literally the best most loyal dogs ever! And Pyres also were bred to protect livestock up in the Pyrenees mountains hence the name..they can be extremely fierce when needed but are really gentle giants. They are very good with other animals too and small children!
    Congratulations 🎉 what a sweetie. Oh that bark, sounded exactly like my Ellie Mae. She was a great Pyrenees too and was legit the best dog I ever had. She lived a good long life of 11.5yrs. 😊 Koji's bark made me think of her, she always used to sprawl out on the floor on her back like that too. Thats how she slept most days.

    I adopted an Anatolian shepherd when my kids were young. He was 185 pounds. We had him for about 11 years. He was a beautiful soul and we loved him but ideally, he would have had a big rural yard/farm to roam and protect. They are amazing and loyal guard dogs, and if I were a solo home or van dweller, I would definitely want an Anatolian Shepherd by my side.

    I had an Anatolian shepherd as my dog when I was 13. He was a cool dog. He loved sleeping. Super protective of me. I had him until he was 13. He was friendly with the other family dogs but he loved beating up the neighbors cattle dogs that wouldn’t stay out of our yard. I once saw him take on 6 dogs and thought oh no he’s going to get killed. Not a scratch on him and some very roughed up and bloody cattle dogs. He was a true protector and was a great dog for me growing up.

    Koji is stunning and obviously a perfect fit and addition to your family! As an adolescent, we raised great Pyrenees. Pyrs are extremely loyal and very protective of their property in person. It appears she will have no training issues with Koji. Hard to imagine why he was left on the side of the road but sometimes hardships occur and in Koji’s case, it was a blessing in disguise.💜

    Beautiful, Koji is a gentle giant and very chilled out. Great that Rio now has a play buddy and you have a loyal dog guard. Such a beautiful place you have and wishing you all the best. I have two rescues, one from UK and one from Romania and they have their issues but I wouldn’t be without them now I live alone. Stay safe and enjoy life with your pals. Andy UK

    Hey Alyssa,
    This was such a great video! I've not watched for a couple of months as been really busy so I'm catching up on your latest few Videos! This is a great surprise and What a lovely thing to do! Koji is CLEARLY a lovely dog with a lovely temperament! I've never seen a dog that's been abandoned and been through that much change fit in so well and so quickly! Same goes for Rio! Amazing!
    Some things are "Meant to be" and THIS is DEFINITELY meant to be! The stars aligned half way across the country!
    Sending you ALL the best wishes thoughts and positive vibes for the future of the new pack. Definitely struck a great balance! 😉❤️☯️♾️
