    For the trolls in the comments who object to Ruben referring to Cindy as his sister, it’s obvious that you don’t live with animals who you consider to be part of your family. For those of us who live with animals that we love as family members, we understand completely. Please don’t troll. It’s mean and ignorant. You are missing the point of this channel entirely. Perhaps this channel is not for you.

      I have a 90 pound white German Shepherd and a 40 pound mutt (Australian Shepherd/Brittany/collie mix. I refer to them as “my girls” and that they are “sisters”. I also have 3 children and 4 grandchildren. My god people who are so miserable just have to find something to complain about. The fact that this man and his family are doing an amazing job and helping animals is an admirable thing.

    As a human who has arthritis the medication’s do help quite a lot, not only with the pain and movement, but also with the energy levels. I am not surprised she feels better with the proper medication and of course love. I fully understand why he calls her his sister perplexing how anyone couldn’t understand that. But some people don’t grow up with the benefit of having animals around.

Coupled with your videos about Cindy, this would provide for a great opportunity to educated and teach children about her journey and the need for animal conservation and protection. A win-win result. Greetings from the Great Sonoran Desert, USA.

    And know a very important question:
    Why do you not have some merch stuff with Cindy,Mini,Jerry and All the other members in front of it live cups, shirts or some blakes?
    I think you will earn some Monet for tea with honey and papayas😊
    And I would be proud to be a Cindy or Minki girl.

    I talk to my fur babies like my children. My daughter’s fur babies are my grandchildren. Shame on the trolls. Some folks only have fur babies as companions. I don’t know what I would do without them since my husband passed.
