All my dogs have been rescues. All of them and they get their forever home, love, pats, walks, good food, treats, fenced in back yard and fresh water. I love my shelter dogs.
My Grandparents were both Deaf & Blind so I grew up with their German Shepherd guide dogs. For the most part back in the '30s '40s and '50s German shepherds were the most popular guide dog breed. I just wish more people were aware of how loving, loyal, and gentle they can be.
Notice when Penny is being playful with the older dog how she actively avoids touching the child. That was 100% an active decision not to knock the child over. I would have adopted right there. Thats so unbelievably hard to train.
Yes, and she will probably learn pretty quickly what the senior dog's limits are. I have a senior and just added a german shepherd cross to my family. One of the reasons I'm keeping him is because of how well he plays with my senior with mobility issues. He will go all out with other younger dogs, but just plays bity face with my senior (who is very happy to play, just if someone is too rough he hurts).
Especially for a young energetic dog she has terrific manners. Hopefully the family can give her enough exercise to keep her happy while enjoying her great temperament. Kudos to them for adopting!
Absolutely and we should not forget that most dogs in shelters have pent-up energy/tension. I think it's normal and understandable that they are more active/energized when playing or interacting with another dog. Therefore, we should not assume it´s her natural energy level and that she will be that way once she settled down in a new home.
I agreed she is very polite and all the energy will be matched by the kid they can tire each other out. Frankly it will also be great for that little girl to have a dog a little younger to play with.
That beaks my heart to hear Luna's owners just gave her up, she deserves a forever home and not be nutritionally neglected. Like I could SEE her ribs through her fur, she's just so fluffy it's hard to see but yeah she's very very under weight. Kelly deserves a forever home, she's such a beautiful sweet girl, and she just wants love.
It's probably best for Luna that her original owner declined to pick her up. Now she has the chance to find proper owners who will give her the food, love, and care she needs.
I can imagine people Fighting over the privilege of having that Shepherd and St. Bernard in their lives. They are Stunningly beautiful, and more importantly,-- Sweet and Loving. WOW. WOW. WOW.
I had. St Barnard when my kids were little. Big old teddy bear! Bless his heart he passed from heat here in Georgia. I came home found him.... Vet said no hope. I held him while he passed. Miss him
If I took a dog home from a shelter, no matter what was happening in my life I would NOT give up and return it. I would move heaven and earth to make it a success
Mi perra cambio mi vida , fue mi mayor logro es de caza la encontré en el monte . Sólo me arrepiento de una cosa , que se muera antes que yo , no podría vivir sin ella. Rocky es un señor , un abrazo a él y todo su equipo desde España Europa.
Agree. I had one that was super dog reactive. I invested in a trainer, which, was very difficult for me financially, but, wow, the difference was amazing. He was my soul dog. Passed away on a walk, which was unexpected, gut wrenching and traumatic. I'm thankful he was with me, doing what he loved to do. Dogs are amazing.
I absolutely get your point and admire it. But I think there are situations where it is simply in the interest of the animal to return it/give it into another care/home. There are situations where it is just selfish to keep it, rather than let it have the best opportunities and home possible.
I have my 5th rescue and it's my favorite breed. When I first bring them home I tell them...I didn't have you for the rest of your life but I have you for the best of your life. I only take seniors and I do my best to make their years happy and fun with lots of love.
I have two Shepherd mix pups from a litter dumped in the desert in January. Gorgeous dogs. I've asked myself 'Why?' so many times. They are so smart and became protective as soon as we got home. These two 8wk fuzzballs tried to protect my daughter and I from our two huge Dobermans when we introduced them. It was crazy! Makes absolutely no sense why someone would dump them! But they're mine now!!! ❤
I have a shepherd retriever cross I am fostering now and I have no clue why anyone wouldn't want this dog. He came already house trained and figured out my life really quickly. I keep waiting for a reason not to keep him, but it hasn't come.
@@aina3387I had a shepherd retriever mix, rescued from the pound. Her family turned her in. They said she was too high energy but I think her separation anxiety got the better of her sometimes. She was beautiful and so smart. The most obedient dog I ever had. The only one I ever had who play bowed to the vet after getting shots😂.
I was absolutely bawling when I saw the Chinese Shar Pei. She reminded me of my good boy Rocco who crossed over 4 years ago. They are so sweet and loving. They can be expensive health wise due to their eyes , ears and skin needs. They are so worth it. Their loyalty is beyond compare. I'm so happy to see Charlotte got adopted!
To the people who adopted Luna before saying "keep her" they need to be taken off the adoption list and be blacklisted! That poor St. Bernard! She was skin & bones! And before ANYONE comes for me saying "maybe they didn't know how much to feed her" yada yada, I call BS! Everyone should know this! Smmfh! 🤬🤦🏼♀️🤬🤦🏼♀️
That female long coat German Shepherd is beautiful. And perfect. I wish her the best! It really breaks my heart to hear that there are so many gsds in the shelter, I've had them since I was a baby, I'm now 63. The very traits that make them so popular are the same traits that make them hard to adopt. They are loyal to their owners and protective of them. Please don't take your German Shepherd to a shelter, it's almost a guaranteed death. There are rescue organizations all across the country, take the time to find one or even post an ad for them. They would do it for you...
I don't recommend posting unless you know how to get homes and can do adoption contracts, home checks etc. there's a lot of very bad people who will hurt them.
Don't let that stop you without examining the steps through which you will have to proceed. It cannot be too difficult between the USA and a European Community country, as that has been done many, many times. Do not let the call of your heart go unanswered. Omnia vincit amor! Love conquers all! You may have been too slow this time, so fight back! Do enough research now, so that if you feel attracted to another animal you will know enough to set an adoption in motion while you deal with the specific details relevant to the animal that has taken your heart. I wish you and your future pet a long and loving relationship
I'm so glad Penny and Charlotte got adopted! They deserve it! 😄 I just hope Kelly the German Shepherd and Luna the St Bernard find their forever homes as well. 🤞
This could be the best thing for Luna...its obvious that her "owners" didn't take care of her. That shepherd is a dream pet! Whomever gets her is getting a gem! God be with your endeavors concerning the well being of these pets!
We all appreciate you how much you do for the dogs and cats no matter what size they are we love what you do never give up to make us happy especially the dogs and the cats❤❤❤
Thank you! In all fairness though all credit goes to the amazing team at Animal Friends of the Valleys. They work so hard every day caring for these animals.
The gorgeous long haired German Shepherd reminded me of my German Shepherd (Mia) who passed away December 2022 and I’m still grieving. She was very loyal she thought everyone was out to murder me lol. I hope she gets adopted soon and please keep us updated. UK fan ❤
I don’t always love how certain UA-cam personalities promote themselves and their good deeds, but it has been clear from the beginning that Rocky genuinely wants to make a difference with his exposure. It’s never about how him, it is always about what he can do to help the shelters and rescues in his area find foster homes and adopters. I’m sure just him setting a good example has made a widespread impact, let alone how many dogs have found homes because he helped get the word out and helped calm their reactionary behaviors.
Good to see you again, Rocky. We could see Penny was only anxious and curious about you, now hopefully not too high energy for poor Riley. Your wife, Kelly, is a good person, what a great name for a beautiful Shepherd. How I wish I could have her myself, but I'm sure someone in CA will come for her. In addition to GSDs, there was a time you wouldn't see Shar-Peis and St. Bernards in the shelter. Not so anymore, but this one's surely better off in a new home. Mahalo, and I hope your loved ones in Maui are doing okay. 💕🐾🐶🍀🌺☮️
For the people who just abandoned Luna... My oh my do i want a word with you. But also I'm glad they did that so she can be with a BETTER more LOVING family. Ugh if i was in america I'd take them all.
I find you to be an awesome dude man. i dont care for people but animals are the best. Its sad about these dogs and the fact you go there and pour your heart out hoping to get them adopted. Makes me want to go to my pound and donate my time to help. Big Heart you got.
No, that's how you get to heaven. You only get to heaven by admitting you're a sinner and believing that Jesus died for your sins on the cross and rose again to newness of life so that you could too.
Seems to me with all the smiles, even the dogs, I think they are in heaven now. Having adopted both kids and dogs, I know I AM! No matter how much the kids act like dogs lol. There is enough. " don't eat that, stop peeing inside, leave that ALONE! Thank gosh the kids go to bed so I can have quiet time with the puppies.
Penny is just so happy to be free and around kind people. I hope the adoptive parents understand that it will take a bit for her to settle in and calm down and not give up on her.
I adopted a shelter dog 4 months ago. She’s so adorable and gets along with my little chihuahua. I think she’s a chihuahua, boston terrier mix. She does have small seizures every now and then. I give her CBD oil and both get homemade meals and vitamins. I love my babies and now I’m retired and spend all my time with them. I named her Chloe and they say she’s about 8 years old.
Who else thinks rocky is a very good person? Edit: Thank you for 400 likes 🥰 Edit: I never do edits, but I just wanna thank you guys for all the likes❤
@rockykanaka we have our own young man.. a 8 month old Saint bernard.. And I could never ever in a million years leave him in a shelter, or even think of giving him away.. Never
I have adopted many dogs and many cats. I currently have two dogs and four cats. I have made provisions for them if something happens to me. They are with me for life through cancer, renal disease, cardiac, idiopathic neuropathy, hyperthyroidism, 3 legged, deaf, one eye. it doesn't matter. I know they would never give up on and I would never give up on them. Be from a shelter or as a stray they will never ever be without.
I hope the St Bernard gets adopted quickly. I'd take her, but I'm in Washington & currently unemployed. Funny, I'm a vet tech & unemployed😢 I use to work in a shelter & thank you for working with these dogs. It really helps them find furever homes
It strikes me that shelters should have some trained volunteers that teach adopters some things about dog psychology/handling because I feel a many families may often get in over their heads with regards to dog handling, which could be allayed with some knowledge and training.
I hope they all get homes soon. I dont understand why 2 beautiful dogs like kelly & the st. benard are even in there. Best wishes for these precious fur babies. To the adopters please understand these dogs are lost from the people they love whether its voluntary on the families part or they just wandered away. They are stressed, scared & its going to take time for them to acclimate to you & their new environment. Wouldn't you feel the same way if someone grabbed you and left you in a strange place? ❤❤❤& Hugs to all the dog out there lost ir in shelters. I hope you find your forever families or find your way back home. ❤❤❤❤😢
My rescue girl was so emotionally messed up when we got her. Years of dog school and socialisation and she is a different girl. It takes time to heal a damaged dog, but so worth it ❤
oh, hormones are fun because I absolutely burst into tears when you said the hold ran out for Kelly. she's such a sweet, sweet baby! if I could have a dog (and was even remotely nearby), I would have come RUNNING for her.
17 year old pomchi with a lot of health issues, 13 year old labmix, 10 year old terrier mix. Couldn't imagine a moment of my life without them. No matter how old, blind, deaf, immobile they get, they are mine and I love them more than anything.
BIG THANK Rocky for helping all these Beautiful dog's I absolutely love Kelly she was absolutely so sweet and so loving I really do hope she finds a fantastic new home soon and I would like to take the time out to appreciate all the hard work that you put into helping all these awesome and Beautiful dog's to find their for ever homes because it wasn't for you alot of these beautiful and awesome dog's would not be able to find a good home so thank you so much because I'm like you a dog love
Donated❤ It allowed our currency so I could give you more. It was SO SIMPLE🎉 Kelly needs a loving understanding home. Luna the St Bernard needs some groceries and tar shampoo. Those feet and elbows look like allergies. Updates on Maui Shelter would be appreciated. You have a kind heart Rocky.
Penny made me remember my dog that died a few years ago, was my companion, friend and son, I helped him when Channel gave birth, him was one of the ones that I saved and wasn't breathing when did born. I cry a bit when I remember him my Snoopy I hope that is in a better place. I miss him so much, and the new pup is helping healing that scars together with my rescued cat that someone did abndoned outside my fence injured in the paws. I have 2 dogs and two cats both rescued and healed by me now they are big and strong. Give love and take care of your 4 pawed friends they give so much uncondicional love and we should give love too until the last breath and know that we did the best for them. And that husky in the next cage of Penny omg I would travel to get that pupper if I had money and lived close(I don't want him to suffer a travel of several hours to azores and that can stress the poor pup) I hope him found a family that deserves him.
I get emotional I watch this videos for two drastically. Different reasons. One reason is to see all these beautiful dogs in the shelter dogs who did nothing wrong waiting for someone to come and love them and bring them home. The other reason I get emotional and literally start crying is when these beautiful babies find their forever home and get adopted.
All the dogs are so beautiful, but my heart always goes for the German Shepherd. They are the most loving, faithful, and loving dogs. Also, rescue newfoundland. They are so loving, faithful, and loving dogs as well. People don't realize how big some dogs will get. Thank you for sharing these videos. I help as many furbabies as I can.
The world makes more sense with people like you, thank you for taking the time and patience to share the good and bad, and the difficult reality of these dogs’ situations are curbed by your love and kindness
I have always had small to medium size dogs. But Kelly is beautiful and I would take her home in a heartbeat, if I was in the area, had the resources, and didn't already have 2 rescue dogs. She is so affectionate and awesome, I am sure she will be immediately adopted--hopefully by a family with young children that can grow up with her and always remember their childhood, with a beautiful and loving dog. I wish dogs lived longer, losing them is such sorrow, but the memories are priceless.
Came across your channel, thank you so much for all the work you do. These precious innocent animals deserve so much and more. It just breaks my heart to see them in a shelter. They just want to be loved and understood, just like humans sometimes we aren't easy to understand either. That just makes me so mad people are all excited about the thought of an animal but then when things get tough they give up. It is just ridiculous! Keep up the good work and doing what you're doing, you certainly will be earning your jewels in Heaven. :)
I found your video by accident and I’m now watching every single of one! Some even make me cry of joy and others makes me sad learning about these beautiful dogs stories. We currently have our AMAZING 6 years old rescue dog that is the sunshine in our home ❤! She is a gift for my family! Good luck and best wishes for you for doing/giving your loving and compassionate time and dedication to these animals that need so many people like you in the world! 😇👍👏🥰👌🙏🩷‼️… by the is Kellie the German Shepard adopted now? I hope she is!!!! 🥰
I am so glad that this wonderful family decided to adopt sweet Penny!! it breaks my heart to hear that Luna's family doesn't want her anymore. I hope that both Luna and Kelly find their forever homes soon.

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
I love your videos, they are the best
OMG, how is Luna? I have a male who weighs 220 pounds. 4 1/2 yrs old.
Hiya are you aware St Bernads is also a school?
What has happened to Raymond?
All my dogs have been rescues. All of them and they get their forever home, love, pats, walks, good food, treats, fenced in back yard and fresh water. I love my shelter dogs.
My Grandparents were both Deaf & Blind so I grew up with their German Shepherd guide dogs. For the most part back in the '30s '40s and '50s German shepherds were the most popular guide dog breed. I just wish more people were aware of how loving, loyal, and gentle they can be.
Just like with labs, they have been overbred and bred for some really bad characteristics which have reduced the good parts of the breed.
its really sad to see such beautiful and friendly dogs like that German Shepard in the shelter, I hope someone saves that dog
Can’t help but tear up when the shelter announces the animal going home over the PA system!! So sweet
Me too!
I "liky" 'cos it's a real public commitment. 😁 Yes, you're taking them home and eeeeeeverybody knows it.
Notice when Penny is being playful with the older dog how she actively avoids touching the child. That was 100% an active decision not to knock the child over. I would have adopted right there. Thats so unbelievably hard to train.
Yes, and she will probably learn pretty quickly what the senior dog's limits are. I have a senior and just added a german shepherd cross to my family. One of the reasons I'm keeping him is because of how well he plays with my senior with mobility issues. He will go all out with other younger dogs, but just plays bity face with my senior (who is very happy to play, just if someone is too rough he hurts).
Especially for a young energetic dog she has terrific manners. Hopefully the family can give her enough exercise to keep her happy while enjoying her great temperament. Kudos to them for adopting!
And the child fell in love with her immediately 💗 so heartwarming
Absolutely and we should not forget that most dogs in shelters have pent-up energy/tension. I think it's normal and understandable that they are more active/energized when playing or interacting with another dog. Therefore, we should not assume it´s her natural energy level and that she will be that way once she settled down in a new home.
I agreed she is very polite and all the energy will be matched by the kid they can tire each other out. Frankly it will also be great for that little girl to have a dog a little younger to play with.
That beaks my heart to hear Luna's owners just gave her up, she deserves a forever home and not be nutritionally neglected. Like I could SEE her ribs through her fur, she's just so fluffy it's hard to see but yeah she's very very under weight. Kelly deserves a forever home, she's such a beautiful sweet girl, and she just wants love.
So sad these animals had to be given up or abandoned. They just want to be loved.
It's probably best for Luna that her original owner declined to pick her up. Now she has the chance to find proper owners who will give her the food, love, and care she needs.
Plus, the owners did not take care of her. I have never seen a St Bernard so skinny. It is criminal.@Annie497
That little girl absolutely loved that dog. She would have gone home and cried her eyes out until they went back to adopt her.
Some people don't deserve a Dog.All dogs deserve ❤️

Penny is my ultimate dog. I would adopt her in a heartbeat!
I do wonder why so many loving, lovely dogs get abandoned or mistreated. I'm sure they have different stories but in the end, the dog suffers.
If people can abuse innocent children they of course do it to animals and abandon because it's legal.
Rocky is the best person.
Rocky should win a "best human" award.
Rocky is a wonderful human we need more people like him
YOU can be a wonderful person, too....
We lost our sweet Lucy a few years ago. She was a Shar Pei, so I'm so glad that sweet baby got adopted.
I adopted a shelter dog 4 months ago. She’s so adorable and gets along with my little chihuahua. I think she’s a chihuahua, boston terrier mix. She does have small seizures every now and then. I give her CBD oil and both get homemade meals and vitamins. I love my babies and now I’m retired and spend all my time with them. I named her Chloe and they say she’s about 8 years old.
Who else thinks rocky is a very good person?

Rocky is pawsome and awesome.
I'm looking your videos from Paris in France! You have always a smile, when you are with your dogs, I love your attitude with dogs!!!
6,5 years and allready been there two times? thats heartbreaking
@rockykanaka we have our own young man.. a 8 month old Saint bernard.. And I could never ever in a million years leave him in a shelter, or even think of giving him away.. Never
Keep up the good work of looking after dogs Rocky and your team I’m very proud of you.
Love you Rocky you are best for helping all these dogs God bless you❤❤
Poor Kelly too so heartbreaking. I hope she gets a furever home soon.
Adopte and take care of all lovely dogs, they deserve a home, love,care
I have adopted many dogs and many cats. I currently have two dogs and four cats. I have made provisions for them if something happens to me. They are with me for life through cancer, renal disease, cardiac, idiopathic neuropathy, hyperthyroidism, 3 legged, deaf, one eye. it doesn't matter. I know they would never give up on and I would never give up on them. Be from a shelter or as a stray they will never ever be without.
I hope the St Bernard gets adopted quickly. I'd take her, but I'm in Washington & currently unemployed. Funny, I'm a vet tech & unemployed😢 I use to work in a shelter & thank you for working with these dogs. It really helps them find furever homes
Such a beautiful gsd girl. Im living in the Netherlands so I csn’t adopt but I have a gsd girl myself and she is the sweetest, gentle dog.
Oh the long hair shepard is SO BEAUTIFUL! Thank you Rocky and helpers for all you all do for animals.
It strikes me that shelters should have some trained volunteers that teach adopters some things about dog psychology/handling because I feel a many families may often get in over their heads with regards to dog handling, which could be allayed with some knowledge and training.
Getting & training volunteers takes money - shelters are short on money. That's why Rocky and his sponsors thankfully step in.
Love this idea! Just need more volunteers 🤙
Volunteers are unpaid...not every town has experts with time that don't need money. You can do that though. You go get trained then volunteer
❤❤❤❤❤your beautiful person thanks for helping 🙏🙏🙏🙏
All are so precious!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hope they all get homes soon. I dont understand why 2 beautiful dogs like kelly & the st. benard are even in there. Best wishes for these precious fur babies. To the adopters please understand these dogs are lost from the people they love whether its voluntary on the families part or they just wandered away. They are stressed, scared & its going to take time for them to acclimate to you & their new environment. Wouldn't you feel the same way if someone grabbed you and left you in a strange place?
❤❤❤& Hugs to all the dog out there lost ir in shelters. I hope you find your forever families or find your way back home. ❤❤❤❤😢
Luna needs the best parents who will never betray her again 🙏🏻💔
I have a St. Bernard they are so sweet
thank you for always keeping a positive attitude with some of the most heartbreaking situations - I bet that really helps the dogs remain hopeful.
omy the lady adopting Charlotte was soo sweet and you could tell she truly loved Charlotte already 🥹❤️
Thank you for all you do, I am learning a lot from you!
I'm a proud mama to two rescue dogs. I could not be happier. They are amazing.
I love dogs and I'm so happy that you help them
Thanks for all you do🐾
Love Penny, so great she is adopted
Thank you, for all the hard work and dedication for the love of these dogs, God bless you brother
💜💜💜 Rocky God blessed you you're an amazing person and I wish nothing but good things for you and your family Rocky Kanaka 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾💜💜💜
My rescue girl was so emotionally messed up when we got her. Years of dog school and socialisation and she is a different girl. It takes time to heal a damaged dog, but so worth it ❤
Thank you for everything you do for these amazing dogs, Rocky. You’re the best!🙌
Kelly is just beautiful, I really wish she will find her forever home and soon. xxx
oh, hormones are fun because I absolutely burst into tears when you said the hold ran out for Kelly. she's such a sweet, sweet baby! if I could have a dog (and was even remotely nearby), I would have come RUNNING for her.
17 year old pomchi with a lot of health issues, 13 year old labmix, 10 year old terrier mix. Couldn't imagine a moment of my life without them. No matter how old, blind, deaf, immobile they get, they are mine and I love them more than anything.
BIG THANK Rocky for helping all these Beautiful dog's I absolutely love Kelly she was absolutely so sweet and so loving I really do hope she finds a fantastic new home soon and I would like to take the time out to appreciate all the hard work that you put into helping all these awesome and Beautiful dog's to find their for ever homes because it wasn't for you alot of these beautiful and awesome dog's would not be able to find a good home so thank you so much because I'm like you a dog love
Donated❤
It allowed our currency so I could give you more.
It was SO SIMPLE🎉
Kelly needs a loving understanding home. Luna the St Bernard needs some groceries and tar shampoo. Those feet and elbows look like allergies.
Updates on Maui Shelter would be appreciated.
You have a kind heart Rocky.
That was so adorable ❤
Penny made me remember my dog that died a few years ago, was my companion, friend and son, I helped him when Channel gave birth, him was one of the ones that I saved and wasn't breathing when did born. I cry a bit when I remember him my Snoopy I hope that is in a better place. I miss him so much, and the new pup is helping healing that scars together with my rescued cat that someone did abndoned outside my fence injured in the paws. I have 2 dogs and two cats both rescued and healed by me now they are big and strong. Give love and take care of your 4 pawed friends they give so much uncondicional love and we should give love too until the last breath and know that we did the best for them. And that husky in the next cage of Penny omg I would travel to get that pupper if I had money and lived close(I don't want him to suffer a travel of several hours to azores and that can stress the poor pup) I hope him found a family that deserves him.
Penny is wonderful. She is so good with the little girl and she is obviously very eager to please. She is a hidden treasure that has been found.
❤
I get emotional I watch this videos for two drastically. Different reasons. One reason is to see all these beautiful dogs in the shelter dogs who did nothing wrong waiting for someone to come and love them and bring them home. The other reason I get emotional and literally start crying is when these beautiful babies find their forever home and get adopted.
All the dogs are so beautiful, but my heart always goes for the German Shepherd. They are the most loving, faithful, and loving dogs. Also, rescue newfoundland. They are so loving, faithful, and loving dogs as well. People don't realize how big some dogs will get. Thank you for sharing these videos. I help as many furbabies as I can.
The world makes more sense with people like you, thank you for taking the time and patience to share the good and bad, and the difficult reality of these dogs’ situations are curbed by your love and kindness
I have always had small to medium size dogs. But Kelly is beautiful and I would take her home in a heartbeat, if I was in the area, had the resources, and didn't already have 2 rescue dogs. She is so affectionate and awesome, I am sure she will be immediately adopted--hopefully by a family with young children that can grow up with her and always remember their childhood, with a beautiful and loving dog. I wish dogs lived longer, losing them is such sorrow, but the memories are priceless.
Came across your channel, thank you so much for all the work you do. These precious innocent animals deserve so much and more. It just breaks my heart to see them in a shelter. They just want to be loved and understood, just like humans sometimes we aren't easy to understand either. That just makes me so mad people are all excited about the thought of an animal but then when things get tough they give up. It is just ridiculous! Keep up the good work and doing what you're doing, you certainly will be earning your jewels in Heaven. :)
I found your video by accident and I’m now watching every single of one! Some even make me cry of joy and others makes me sad learning about these beautiful dogs stories. We currently have our AMAZING 6 years old
rescue dog that is the sunshine in our home ❤! She is a gift for my family! Good luck and best wishes for you for doing/giving your loving and compassionate time and dedication to these animals that need so many people like you in the world! 😇👍👏🥰👌🙏🩷‼️… by the is Kellie the German Shepard adopted now? I hope she is!!!! 🥰
I am so glad that this wonderful family decided to adopt sweet Penny!!
it breaks my heart to hear that Luna's family doesn't want her anymore.
I hope that both Luna and Kelly find their forever homes soon.
You are amazing all those animals deserve a forever home and it's amazing that you are helping.prayers for them all to get a forever home 🙏
Save lives! Adopt! Forster! Pledge! Share! Pets are FAMILY! 🙏🏼🐶💜🌈🙏🏼🐶💜
