  • We found these two dogs chained up in a yard miserable. We knew we had to get them free and try to find them the best life possible.
    Rusty and Libby (Liberty) are now free and beginning to enjoy their first taste of freedom.

    What horrible neighbour's! The dogs had to suffer, not their fault. So glad they are off their chains and free now. I hope those people don't get more dogs now that they will put on chains again.

      This world is so full of evil humans it's so tragic that animals, mother nature, children, and the old people always suffer at the hands of evil - Thanks so much Niall and your team for all your Love, Comfort, Concern, Support, Helpfulness, Kindness, TLC, Goodness, and Being There in a dog's time of need - You're an ANGEL & BLESSING - Love You❤

    In addition to being a lovely catch-up video, this one is also a bit of a lesson in not jumping to conclusions. It would've been easy to be angry at the family who put the two dogs on chains, where they suffered. But now we know it was their imperfect way to save them from a potentially deadly situation with the horrible neighbor. Luckily it's all working out for the best, and I send thanks to that family, for letting Niall take the two of them into his care.

      Sorry, but I don't think any dogs 'love' the street. Where they have to worry about how they're gonna eat every day... attacks from other hungry dogs... and worst, horrible people, like the neighbors who killed that poor puppy just for existing. If you look at all the dogs Niall has taken in who have been nearly killed/ severely injured by evil humans, I think it's clear no dog wants to live the horrific, scary life on the street.

      @@MG-pj2oo Niall himself has said many times that some of the dogs he feeds LOVE living on the streets and were miserable when he took them to the land. He recently had to recall a dog he had sent for adoption in the UK that was miserable there. It's not that they love the streets, but rather they're happier in that environment that they've known their whole lives, living with their friends, having all the freedom in the world. Yes, that comes with some negatives, but some dogs prefer it.

    A life chained in one place is not a good life at all. I'm glad that you've freed Rusty and Libby, they deserve better. Every animal rescue organization runs a bit differently but with a common goal which is to help animals. I'm sure life has improved a lot for many dogs on the island since you started your humanitarian work. With daily feeding, basic health care, sterilization, emergency cases and some adoptions, you also raise awareness about how we should view animals and treat them kindly for their well being and our human health. Beautiful work.

      Its great but why you sending dogs to England there's plenty of dog rescue places there
      Just took on another soi dog myself in the village where l live,felt really sorry for her ,she had 3 pups all died ,she had these because bigger dogs on her all the time, shortly after she was knocked down twice in one day damaged her hip and back leg she could hardly walk, I thought got to do something so went to vets and then to khon kaen University veterinary hospital where they repaired her hip
      She is still under treatment not walking that well but I hope soon will heal
      But she is a lovely gentle dog, at the same time she has been neutered so more problems
      there
      Where is your shelter I have my own channel been to a couple of shelters they do a great job
      Some people in our village are trying to get a neutering program for the dogs but its an uphill struggle

    That neighbor deserves nothing in life. Nothing.
    I'm so glad all of these dogs are being given homes, that was lovely to hear. I am praying this means that for all dogs brought to recover with you guys, they have the chance to be networked for homes/ don't have to go back to the street life. I also get that it's hard enough homing one dog, let alone 2 together, but Libby and Rusty do look pretty bonded to me. Really hoping this channel and its success brings about a loving adopter who wants both of them, so they can stay together. With the visibility they get here, i really, really hope that's possible. 🙏
    And the little black schnauzer looking baby - i do wish he got to stay with y'all.... but hope his home in Thailand matches the life Hank has with you....

    So many wise, wise words in this video. I've seen some well-meaning rescues turn into warehouses not far off from the end scene of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" through not being able to say "what are my goals and my boundaries, who can I actually HELP, and specifically HOW can I help them?" In the long run many more are helped by sticking to a plan.
    Agree as well about dogs who might seem bonded when they come in - often they may have been "comrades in arms" surviving in a tough spot, but they turn out to have not much in common at all when they are in a better place and their individual personalities can blossom. Let each be the star of their own show! 🥰

    You're making a huge mistake letting go of Billy, specially if he's going to someone in Thailand as you've said before. He has already made a bond with you guys, so you're essentially retraumatizing him by sending him off somewhere else new. He's a street dog, has always lived on the streets, has no concept of "having his own family and being an only dog in a home." I don't think that is the best decision for him. I think he'd be much happier there with you guys, in an environment that is familiar to him, with his friends. He is a very special dog. It's quite sad you don't see it, and you're putting him up for adoption like any other dog...

      Every couple of months there is a dog who everyone says the same thing about, and they all end up happy and loving life. We literally can't keep every dog - we'd end up overrun and not able to help anyone. Billy has recovered remarkably well and we'll do everything we can to find him the perfect home.
