      Over the years I’ve adopted 3 cats off of the “kill floor” from my boston shelter. The longest it took to change any of them into an awesome companion fit for any home was 18 days. I firmly believe you can rehab practically any pet with the right combination of strength *and* compassion

      @anna_in_aotearoa3166 Před 2 lety +27

      Agreed - a lot of animals (esp those who've been abused) seem to have a fairly aggressive-sounding or noisy fear response, and many shelter volunteers don't seem to have the necessary training to recognise that it's just that, fear not actual aggression? Unfortunately where that lack of awareness collides with pre-existing breed prejudices (eg around bully breeds), dogs can get even further fast-tracked to the euthanasia list. Always really appreciate hearing of people who've managed to step in at that point and rescue a dog (or cat!) who would've otherwise not had a chance?

    As someone who was a 4th wheel (our GSD preferred my husband and daughter to me) you will be surprised. He knew I was the one to go to for food, walks, and when he hurts himself or feels yucky. And he’d obey me like a moody teenager…”fine, whatever”… It was like that for four years. 2/13/17 until 9/13/21. When my mom died. He did not leave my side for the following 2 weeks. And since then…he comes to me for cuddles, gives me kisses, and even shares his squeaky with me. Occasionally. He’s funny about his squeaky. I was told by a couple trainers that a GSD needs to be needed, and considering we had a rottie who was a mamas boy and a pit/beagle who was queen bee…he knew I didn’t need him. Until I did. ☺️

      Dogs are so intuitive, the will comfort you without question. When I was pregnant with my 1st born we were living with my parents waiting on a house to become ready to rent. My mom was an R.N. So that was convenient but I went into labor at midnight and I didn’t automatically realize it. It wasn’t until I had the 2 contraction about 30 min later that I realized it. My moms dog, a Yorkie named Cowboy, got in my bed and curled up to my belly and every time I’d have a contraction, he would just tremble, the contraction would stop and he would quit trembling. This went on until it was time to go the the hospital. Mom mom said he would not leave the door the whole time I was gone. She had to move his food and water to the door. When I came home with the baby, he would lay under his cradle, (yeah, it was that long ago). If he whimpered or cried, he was up wanting someone to come get the baby.

      I think the whole "He doesn't know he's NOT a lap dog" thing MUST be a shelter dog thing. I have known two other dogs around 40+ pounds or so that have both been types to climb into a person's lap. I would say it's both a love thing as well as an insecure thing. "Love" to say they appreciated being chosen, and "insecure" as if not sure they are truly being folded into the fabric of the family they've become a part of.
      Both Ginger and Dimebag (named, obviously, for the guitarist of Pantera) were very sweet dogs and just wanted to be loved...like the dog in this video.

      She is simply kowtowing the one that she believes is the Alpha of the house. Cats are pack-minded animals and because of that, they try and keep the pack leader happy. My cats do the same thing with me, and it makes my girlfriend very sad. Oddly enough, if I show my girlfriend affection, my cats follow suit and climb all over her and try and groom her, which is always a good sign. This is how I try and keep the peace in my home. Either way, don't take it personally, it's just a cat being a cat.

The Mastiff is so sweet that her name is now Maple.

    All 3 of you (and those other lil ones) are tremendously sweet. Great to watch. Thanks.

    Lol, an ex-girlfriend and I had a similar experience. She had found a stray pregnant cat and she brought her home with her. The cat was friendly so we kept her instead of taking her to the humane society. We named her Church because she looked like the cat on Pet Cemetery. Church very quickly became attached to me and followed me all over the house. If she didn't follow me then she would sit wherever I was sitting and wouldn't let anyone sit there. She had her babies and we found good homes for them with friends. Church was always with me and she absolutely loved to sit on my chest and groom my beard and stash while she purred and massaged me with her murder mittens. She liked other people but she loved me and made sure everyone knew that I belonged to her.

      @@frolickinglions- my dad had semi adopted a big main coon when his people just left him at the apartments when they moved. He survived on his own for a while and was always an indoor /outdoor cat even after "adopted".
      He obviously had all his claws and occasionally he'd get a little rough when playing. I remember once he reached out and grabbed the sides of my face by my temples when he was on a cabinet and I was popping up in a peekaboo type game.
      I said, "Okay. Playtime is over," as I froze. I gently pried his claws out of the side of my face without cutting myself. Luckily he was generally fairly gentle and didn't pull away even though he had been hyped while playing.
      Murder mittens indeed. He was all black with white on his chest and paws which did make them look like mittens.
      I'm also reminded of that event when I watch "I am Puma" and their cougar reaches out to bat or grab at his "dad's" face with those huge paws.

      My cat had social issues listed at the shelter. The family that had him kept him locked in a bathroom so he hadn't been properly socialized. Shortly after adopting him it was discovered he had urinary issues. Aside from an emergency vet visit he's been perfectly good since just eating special food. It took time for him to be trusting and to get more than a few pets without being overstimulated and freaking out. 4 years after adoption he turned into a complete lap cat. Every morning now I sit down and enjoy my coffee or tea with a cat sprawled across my lap purring like mad. I hate to think what could have happened to him if someone else had adopted him. He may have ended up back at the shelter over and over, or not have had his medical needs tended to properly.

      Parents, not owners. Let's change that. Maybe if people are aware that they're adopting a child, not buying a pet more animals will have permanent homes.

      Yep! We rescued a big, intense, aloof yet sweet wolfhound mix. My wife had never had a dog before. I'm his roughhouse play and walk buddy, but Zeke is my wife's dog. Not fair, but nice to see.

      They brought a filthy, disease and bacteria ridden bag of CRAP into their home to live with them. A disgusting old habit that we should have KICKED sometime about 70,000 BC. dogs are Humankind's filthiest curse!!

    this brings back the memory of the dog I used to play with. Her name was lali. She was a female stray pup adopted by my cousin. we were neighbors so after school I often visited them to play with her. But all changed when they adopted another pup and started to neglect her. She wasn't even fed properly. Naturally she became malnourished. They even abandoned her when they found out she had gotten a disease that couldn't be cured. I didn't know this cuz at the time I was too young and was preparing for my school exams. After the exams I found her skinny as skeleton and shivering from cold. As there was no vet in my area I took care of her as much as I could. My parents didn't allow me to adopt her for various reasons so all I could do is provide her some food. I made her a bed from rags just outside the door under the shed. It was a place where rain couldn't reach so she stayed there for her last couple of weeks. But the food I gave her wasn't enough for her weak body. She eventually died of the disease and malnourishment. Lali, wherever you are I hope you have found happiness and a family that can take proper care of you. You deserve all the love in the world. I won't ask for forgiveness bcz I know had I taken better care of you, you could've been alive for a little bit more😭

    Gaining a routine probably made Rusty feel secure; it gave him a purpose in life. Having given tasks and or goals you're regularly expected to perform/meet provides structure, prevents feelings of aimlessness & uselessness; pets are no different.

    I just love your guy's hearts. I teared up when you said that you knew you had to adopt the dog because you were concerned that no one else would adopt him. Can you imagine how much more beauty there would be in our world if more people had the same kind of attitude as you and your husband have?
