    My husband and I are hoping to adopt a dog this weekend. His owner is in the hospital with a broken neck from an auto accident. The owner knows he will never be able to take care of a big dog again. The dog ("Red") has been living for a month (since the accident) with friends, who can no longer keep him because he is nervous around their baby. They are related to our neighbors, who suggested us as a possible new home for Red. We will meet Red this weekend. This video helps me better understand how to get acquainted with a frightened, confused dog. We'll sit on the floor and have plenty of treats available. He must miss his owner terribly and we hope we can help him be happy again. Wish us luck!

      Hi, I would just like to let you know, because it is so so so important for our species.
      That prayer gets in the way of real solutions.
      People often choose prayer over medical care for example, this leads them into really bad spots, or worse.
      People pray instead of actually doing their bit to help.
      I know you think prayer works, but all the statistics and evidence shows prayer only has negative effects.
      I imagine you're thinking, 'why won't you just leave me be and let me have my beliefs.'
      Well, it's people believing things without sufficient evidence that leads to so many problems in the world.
      I'm sorry, but you don't have sufficient evidence.
      You may believe you do, but that's only because you likely have never learned about standards of evidence, or when evidence is sufficient to warrant reaching a conclusion.
      If you are interested in learning more, I'll be happy to help you.
      Recovering from religion is a long journey, the first victims of any religion are its followers.

He did this smartly, making him a lot more apt to be adopted within a very short time of becoming eligible. If he had just rushed in, chances are the dog would either (1) have cowered in the corner or (2) attempted to attack him reasonably quickly because he doesn't seem to trust people, and it's just possible that he has good reasons to be that way!

It took three attendants to get her. Forty minutes later she came and sniffed my foot. It took her 2 months to stay in the same room as me. Best dog ever ❤.

      With our current dog, the experience started out the same as yours - she was cowering on her little bed in the back of the cage while all the other dogs were barking - but she was easy to handle, and basically crawled in my lap, then my wifes, and then back into mine. She was just so happy to be away from the other dogs. Still, best dog ever - she's been with us now longer than she's been in every other home and shelter combined.

I was scared of dogs so the others all jumping and barking frightened me. For a month I don't know which of us was more scared! I'd go to touch her and she'd move away, she came near me and I freaked!! We were together over 16 years and I adored her as much as she did me - 3 collies later I still miss her. They are wonderful creatures and only need a bit of love x

    Every time you ask for a dog's name, I always think of "Sprocket." As for "Asher," did you know there's a man named Asher who owns a "ranch" & has ctr'd his life around adopting "last chance dogs"? He raises vegetables for them & feeds good dog, too. He's very careful when adding a new dog to the pack. They see him as the Alpha & trust him not to let them get hurt in any way. He caters to the needs of each one, whether they're seniors or have medical issues he makes sure that in addition to his love, he provides for their nutritional & medical needs. He has a converted mini bus so he can take them all on outings. He's a neat guy.

      I have 2 rescues, one for 2 years and one for about a year and a half
      Both came from abusive homes, one was severe physical abuse
      She was so terrified of humans she would shake if you came near her and pee herself if your foot came close when walking by
      Flash forward to now:
      They are 2 of the sweetest dogs on earth! Gracie (the very abused one) took about 6 months of solid and slow, VERY slow, steps of TLC and she is now my stalker! She has to be near me or have me in sight and she has lost all fear of humans! My neighbors love my dogs and bring them treats to my screened in front porch and when I have a friend in the house both dogs go crazy just wanting love and pets.
      Too bad us humans are unable to truly let go of a troubled past because apparently once a dog decide to let go, it is GONE!
      Please, anyone reading this, do not hesitate to adopt a dog who needs special attention IF you have a quiet house and lots of time and patience.

Now the only issue is she is now extremely attached to me and never wants to be alone ... ever!

      I’ve had my former puppy mill momma for 11 years. She would pull back when you tried to pick her up to get in the car for about 9 years. Certain beeping noises would set her off. She’s deaf now and for the first time in her life, she’s relaxed. She was my second rescue, both Cairns. But they were night and day because she was damaged by a greedy, lazy human who profited off her. No dog deserves to be mistreated or not loved. They have the purest hearts and they can love when loved, no matter the hurt they’ve gone thru.

    I have a Swiss White Shepherd and it breaks my heart to see a white shepherd this forlorn and lonely in a cell. 😭 They are among the most sensitive, affectionate, attentive and smart dogs you can have but they are also very guarded and can be reactive if not trained and cared for. I sincerely hope this beautiful boy finds a loving home soon ❤ Thanks so much for sharing some love with him today!

      We have a swiss shepherd as well. And Asher looks just like him. He is probably not used to petting on your lap ( or sitting on a sofa eg). I also didn't read any fear or stress in his earpositions. Try playing with a ball, most of these shepherds looooove that. Greetings from the Netherlands. P.s. They usually love scratching on their shoulders, hip and chest.

Immaculate temperament, impeccable behaviour and so so clever. He lived for his family and I will always have a huge hole in my heart that his paws once filled. I hope this beautiful shepherd finds himself a loving family. He deserves to be loved unconditionally.

    What’s sad about this is that this dog has belonged to someone who obviously took great care of him. He’s polite, gentle, calm, very sweet and lovable. His fear and sadness probably stem from being separated from his family. What is strange, is it doesn’t appear that anyone is looking for him. That’s heartbreaking because he’s a wonderful dog. If I was where you are, I’d want to adopt him, but I already have 2 dogs and that’s really all I can handle! I hope he finds a good home. 😢

    Greetings and best wishes from South Africa. Love these clips and love what Rocky & Alexis do !! My family and I are dog fanatics and we have had the privilege of owning 8 over the last 15 yrs - 6 of which were rescues. Rescue dogs are worth rescuing and loving and we have seen how caring and sharing with them really does reverse time and heal them both physically & emotionally. Our rescues have returned as much commitment and affection to us which we showed them ! One of ours needed a bit of training for 6 months and even that worked out well too ! Dogs are deserving of everything good we can give and they make us wish we were better people.........
