my dog went missing about 7-8 months ago and this video was probably one of the hardest things to watch... 😭 my dog is also micro-chipped, I just pray that one day this will be me
A while ago I was a volunteer at a Humane Society shelter in Lethbridge, Alberta. One of the cats, named Giselle, used to sit very stoically in a window and look out at the world. She was lovely but rather aloof, and we knew she was a senior cat. One day a lady came in to look at the cats, and as she moved from cage to cage and talked to the cats, Giselle turned around and ran to the lady...it was her cat whom she had lost YEARS ago. She nearly passed out from shock and joy. Giselle (whose real name escapes me now) climbed all over the lady and purred and rubbed and couldn't let go of her. The lady cried and cried and we all cried and cried (and I am crying now as I write this). It was so heartbreakingly beautiful to witness this reunion, I have never forgotten it. Pets NEVER forget. Life is so much better with an animal to love. Needless to say, the lady took her dear Giselle back home
Guys her fear isn't of her owner it's of the situation. She's nervous because none of this is familiar to her. Look at how happy she is to be leaving with her daddy
I totally lost my shit when she put her paw on him.
Don't exaggerate... The dog didn't, why should you?
Jason Desjardins Same
Obviously you're another idiot without feelings, why do you bother coming on this site? - beats me!
She just melted into him. She knew he was there and that she was finally safe again
It looks like she can hardly believe she's got her daddy back. Such a wonderful happy ending!
The reaction of this dog was so unique! She is like in guilt, saying "I'm so sorry that I left but I was so scared!"
Y'all aren't going to be live me but this man is my uncle. He would never abuse her or any other dog. He got her from a shelter while was abused before. Thank you for the supportive comments:)
Sweet girl, so timid at first but warming to her human as she realized she was back with family and safe. Dogs are truly wonderful.
Look at how excited she is to go home at the end ! wonderful
I have a dog that disappeared for 3 months. Then she came back ,pregnant. She wept and peed at the same time when she saw me. Big tears rolling down her cheeks. I was so happy and thankful, she looked nourished and smelled like she was bathed.
She seemed so grateful, she just relaxed into his arms, and stared into his eyes.
Made me cry.
Ok, I'm off giving my dog a hug.
Dogs are such beautiful creatures
As a good amateur trainer, I love this man. No screaming or silliness... he lets the dog smell and feel him close and comforting a scared animal. A dog is an animal and not a toy or person.
I've never seen a dog so quietly emotional. The way she looks at him.
That poor dog probably went through seven months of hell especially on the street. I totally understood her shyness.
I lost my dog last night because of the same exact reason. And I couldn't imagine losing her for 7 months. She does have a microchip so I'm hoping someone finds her and turns her into a shelter. 😞
That was such a gentle reunion! Like she seemed so tired and uncertain. And when she understood what was happening it's like she was at peace and just wanted to stay there with her head on him ❤️
She was unsure at first being submissive and looking for reassurance but note her joy when she realises that she is actually leaving with him. A total change in demeanour. Glad she is home and happy. Beautiful dog!!!
her reaction - like she was crumpling, wasn't sure, exhausted then rests in the known love. sweet.
He wasn't scared, he was being subvisive, giant difference,
I thought the dog looked uncomfortable at first, but she perked up at the end when she realized he was taking her with him, so I know she was happy.
If I lost my dog I don't know what happened to me he's the only thing I have in the world I can't even think one day without him
What a gentle soul Dora is - she can't believe her eyes! I'm so happy for them all. I wish she could tell us what happened to her during those 7 months when she was lost...but all that matters no more. She's been found! I love happy endings!
I wish i could find my dog .many years ago i lost him 😢😭😭😭😭.his memories still make me cry i still miss u baby😭😦😭😭😭😭
FYI, Dora was a fearful dig to begin with! her dad said they adopted her when she was semi-feral and were socializing her. She got scared by fireworks and jumped their fence. You can see she knows him with her putting her paw on him and giving kisses (which she didn't do with volunteers or staff when she was there). She is still doing great with her family!
+Kristene Gonzalez hey thank you for clarrifying. I was guilty too of judging the guy, now I feel bad
Thank God..dat Dora is happy
Kristene Gonzalez
Thank you. I didn't know Dora's story.
If she was already a fearful dog to begin with, WHY would they keep her outside with fireworks going on?? That is VERY stupid. Her reaction is one of fearfulness, not a dog happy to see this man. No dog or cat should ever be left outside with fireworks going on whether they have a fearful disposition or not! More animals go missing on the Fourth o July than any other day of the year in the USA.
Thanks for the update on Dora. I also wondered what happened to her as the video is over four years old now. There are a lot of folks out in CZcams land that adore Dora and her family.
GO DORA... YES, you're a true survivor.....I'm an Angel for our animals... God loves dogs just as much as people.
I'm crying like a tiny baby now.
Awww me too
That's amazing, she didn't get nervous or excited as other dogs do, she just went to him with the caution of one not wanting to be awaken from a dream. So intense, awesome!
Anyone who loves, protects, and saves animals are the diamonds of this world
Thank God people still care about pets.
Oh my god! Her reaction was soo intense when she realized just who this was :'')!
To those judgmental. The dog is happy. Get a life.
OH? u dog expert or stupid? .Says me the dog is happy (if u watch the whole video), i own a dog, same breed. go get a dog and a life b4 comment this. Dont compare me with numbers of videos u watch about dogs on the internet, go get a real life DOG and then talk to me. oh wait, u wouldn't u rather stay here and judge everything u though it should be, go fuck urself you judgmental freak. :)
undeny yup you know she was scared at first
Stop it. Those idiots probably had spayed their dog before :((
Jair Antonio Gallardo M. Lol yes that's known world wide you don't need to convince anyone but what does the dogs smelling ability have to do with it being scared ?
What a sweet soul, look at his beautiful reaction, just awesome
She seemed a little afraid/ashamed that she ran off and is hoping her Daddy will forgive her. Also very grateful to be reunited.
LOVED the Music ! and the reunion of mans best friend.
The day my dog leaves life im gonna cry till my eyes bleed,im not prepared
I’m so glad this baby got to go home again 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I don't cry watching this kind of videos but how the dog acted made me cry
Glad she is back.
OMG, dear Dora, what a miracle, I'm crying my eyes out now. You beautiful darling, I'm so very glad for you and your boss ! I hope you'll happy now.😢😢😢😢💜💜💜👌👌👌
The dog was like "sorry I ran away.."
heat touching feelings when we see again our lost pet ...
You tell me dogs don't have emotions, then you see this. Breaks me down, I need to go home and see my pup
Praise the Lord!!
Just beautiful!!!
Our dog HAD a microchip and she was still never returned. I think whoever found her, kept her. Glad to see it worked for Dora and her family.
Beautiful in every way.
Praise The Lord for the miracle that this Dog (Dora ) was found. Leat us all Pray that every missing Persons & Pets are found John 3 : 16, 17
At 2:02 he's like "Daddy, am I going home now?"
And from 2:11 onwards he's so HAPPY because he knows he's going home!
So beautiful. A happy ending. Thank You God!
this video makes me miss my dog who passed, I wish I could see him run towards me wagging his tail one last time
Could feel the dog crying...after meeting for a long time
Glad owners have her back.
I don't think this dog was scared of his owner. I think this poor baby was out on the streets alone, fending for himself for 7 long months, then brought into a kill shelter, and he was just traumatized and very confused..
NAh the dog just din't reconize this owner. Most likely a staged vid.
Allison Berman EXACTLY!! My cat went missing for 5 months and when we finally found him he acted very similar to this dog. It took a night of snuggles and reassurance for my cat to bounce back a little. And even after that my cats personality was still a little changed after having been lost and starved. Animals experience tress and trauma just like humans.
lordSeaworth: After THAT long of a time, you may be right. Dog's possess just so much intelligence and memory is part of that limited intelligence, sad to say. Staged? I don't think so, and if so, why stage something like this?
Herself* he's my uncle
I don't know why I watch these they always make me cry like a baby
Holly shit. What animal need is love. Amazing video.
Oh my...made me cry... sweet Dora 😘😘
She looked so scared and confused
That dog looked so sad I cried :(
If you don't have a tear in your eye after watching this clip you really don't have a heart. How beautiful it was to see Dora gently petting her paw against her owner. Please, if you know there are going to be fireworks nearby, always bring your dog inside as they can be very frightening for them. In my neighbourhood they will advise all homes via leaflets when fireworks are scheduled to prevent this very situation. Just remember, dogs aren't aware of what fireworks are & to them can be very distressing. Thank goodness this situation had a great outcome but after seven long months. Yet another reason to microchip your dog.
wanted to cry. beautiful story
For those going on about abuse, don't forget to study the owner too. That owner looked beyond happy, touched, and relieved to see his dog. When studying human and pet reunions, always study BOTH family members.(i.e human and pet)
the dog is fearful, no tail wag.....no excitement......this video breaks my heart.....
oh... so sweet owner...and in a firsth moment she can't believe
Aww, she shrinks back because she knows she did bad by running away. But Master doesn't care. He's just happy to have her back.
First, very cautious but as time goes on, be bright and shine her eyes.
Last, with man, I can see her steps energetic and expectant
Why must music drown out the real emotion of the moment?
Very unusual reaction. Most dogs jump for joy.
Can't stop my tears
Beautiful.
This is true love! U can find out what kind of heart a person has depending on how they treat animals
So very true erica vigil.
I Just Can't Stop Crying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg you ok? Were you been crying the past 2 months?
The dogs initial reaction was as if she had suffered a lot in the last 7.5 months....but later she seemed Happy, Happy. Happy!
I can't control it tears😭😭😭
Happy story .. God Bless Dora & Family!
All the comments saying she's scared, you are either dumb, a child or both. 7 months is a long time to dogs. Their devotion to their owners is unreal. Us, as humans, have our family and friends. The dog has their mummy and daddy. The way she reacted was pure relief, and joy that her daddy is back. If she was abused, dogs tend to yelp by just the touch. And I'm sure if he was a dog abuser, he wouldn't of even bothered coming to get her.
so very very sweet thanks
lovely video but the singing was so annoying
The singing was also really sad
DON'T LEAVE YOUR PETS OUTSIDE ON FIREWORKS HOLIDAYS...EVEN IN A FENCED YARD!
A lovely happy ending......
BEAUTIFUL story
Poor baby been through so much
You can say that Dora went exploring xD
hahahahahahahah .. the map fucked up x)
😥 shes like im sorry dad ill never run away again
This made me cry too.
This made me cry, maybe its because of the music
Leopard Eyes me too.. it was so Happy
Wanted to cry but the music was not good for me and the dogs reaction was strange to me but a good story
+Leopard Eyes I would love it more without music to hear their reactions
+Leopard Eyes ikr
Me to! 😢😢❤️💗💗 it's so happy, I love seeing stuff like this!
Omg the tears. I'm so happy for y'all. 😍
Tears of joy !!
you will see that dog still remember his master no matter how long because dog remembered the smell of his master. I'm happy that they are united to his master and the eyes of dog is very excited to back home and felt sorry for his master for running away of his master. remembered dog afraid of the sound of firecrackers and even they a sound of gun they keep hiding or running because they think that their life is in danger
Dora, be happy!!!
This got me in happy tears❤
what a lovely day
Thx for HELP
You have put tears in my eyes.
I am so happy
I think this is great when you see the horrendous cruelty that some so called humans treat animals - I am pleased I rescue dogs that have gone through horrendous cruelty to show some humans have compassion ..the reward cannot be spoken in words !!!
..sweet Dora was ready to get back home
i am crying I could just imagine that being my dog
I love this video of Dora finally finding her dad
It make me sad but happy at the same time
Dora, you are beautiful !
