My ex-wife and I adopted a 14-year-old dog from the shelter in February. He is full of tumors and was very neglected. Nobody wanted him. He's now with us for almost 10 months and he is the happiest guy ever. Full of energy and living his life to the fullest. It is so rewarding to give these beautiful creatures what they deserve. We knew it would last maybe one week, maybe one month, maybe one year. But it doesn't matter. When he goes, he goes in and with love...
@@tracypfau3896 what a beautiful comment about another wonderful story of rescuing an animal that was abandoned & left to die in that shelter situation…💞💝
Yes, I strongly believe that too! From being expected to live only 6 months after adoption to 3 years and counting! What an amazing testimony of the life giving power of true love!
Smart. Yes, giving love, to an animal or human, can give it what it needs to have it's life extended or to help it cure what ails it. I've seen this several times and have done this same thing successfully with both. Love is at the base of everything. And love is the power that holds the universe together.
A friend of mine had a kitten that wasn’t supposed to make it past 3 months because of multiple issues including a severe heart condition. She had him for 15 years. Against all odds and what the vets said, Bug lived a really good life. I hope the same for Ava. You never know!
I adopted a kitty cat named charlie from a shelter - she was old, shy & scared in her cage. Her gramma owner passed away. It took her about 2 mos to come out from under my bed but she was the best cat ever once she trusted me. She lived another 3-4 happy yrs. I don't regret one day of taking in an older cat. She needed love and stability and left happy. Still very sad tho 😓
Thank you for taking in Charlie. I'm sure Charlie's previous owner picked you for Charlie from heaven. I understand not many people wouldn't agree with me but I think things happen for a reason. You will be blessed in many ways for your kindness. You may not know until you look back on your life maybe a year from now or 5 years from now. Trust me it will happen.
It's quality time that counts. She has survived three years since, with your love and a good, happy life, she'll probably live much longer than you'd expect. Bless Ava and her loving family.
We took on a very old and weak cat from the shelter, I fell in love with him at first sight as his huge personality shone so brightly. He was a great communicator and could signal his needs very well - he would ask to be picked up, sit on window sill, be carried upstairs etc but he always made his own way to the toilet tray. He would look deep into our eyes, our souls connected asf he pass on his great experience and wisdom to us, he loved us. He had the best of everything while he was with us and lived like a king. My wife would carry him out for walks which he greatly enjoyed, very alert and interested. Arthur was with us for just eight weeks and undoubtedly it was the right thing to take him on, to give him the best final time possible but he also enriched our lives and taught us a lot about unconditional love, compassion and generosity. What a great cat Arthur was. RIP old chap.
I’m not religious, but I have to say God bless this family and all of the other families that saves all of these animals! Ava is such a beautiful dog with what seems to be the greatest patience and a soul filled with love. ♥️
@@tiggragg2749 good morning God bless you for asking this beautiful doll I left animals so God bless you for resting this beautiful dog I know you have heart problems but God take care of it God loves everybody even animals so I'm not animal lover but I never thought about a pitbull but they need love to we all do this pandemic we all need love and I'm disabled and I wish I could have a dog I'm currently lived in California Los Angeles California now I am you still in San Bernardino California now I'm in Katy well I'm sorry I'm in Houston Texas then I went to Katy Texas damnity back to Houston Texas now I'm in the nursing care so haha that go my life anyway God bless you you have a great day bye
I'm sorry some people can be well intolerant. I've pretty much gone through this a lot in my life mainly because I am a Christian The fact that you even say God bless you and people give you grief over it I'm sorry that's not right. But as I've always known since I was quite Young everything's okay but Jesus. I never hear people getting angry over someone saying Allah bless you or Buddha bless you. I'm not kidding. American writing from Taiwan and people in time on actually are more tolerant to Christians than any other place I've been too In Asia Christians are treated with kindness but in Western culture damn you can't even breathe without being harassed It doesn't surprise me Jesus said that if I follow him or anybody follows him we'd be hated. You know it's funny people always saying how Christians are intolerant yet some of the most and tolerant people I've ever come across are basically people who are leftist. You can't have an actual discussion with anybody cuz they're always screaming and yelling at you before you could say three words
Nothing sad about it. Sheridan said the shelter took very good care of her. And it was "only" 1 year. There are dogs out there which spent her entire life neglected and ill on the streets...
Sad but good because they took good care of her during that time and it allowed this wonderful family to find her and love her and give her a forever home! Many shelters uthanize so many animals and they don't get a second chance. Many people wouldn't have been able to afford the operation. That saved her life too. I don't know how many shelters do that much either.
It's always heartbreaking having to say goodbye...I lost one of my dogs in 2019, she was nearly 15 and I still cry thinking about her, I miss her so much! It doesn't matter how long they have left to live, what matters is the love we share with these wonderful creatures. Thank you for giving Ava the chance to live a life full of love ❤
So sorry for your loss, it's terribly hard losing a beloved pup. Been going through that too, lost my Tippie Girl 9/22/20 and not a day goes by that I don't think about her 💕

I rescued a dog with a severe heart murmur. I was told she would only live to about two years old. We said goodbye when her heart gave out at fourteen and a half years old. Best dog we ever had. We still miss her.
Thank you so much for this story. Years ago I had a Spaniel who was diagnosed with Cardiac Myopathy when she was just over 2 years old and I was told "don't expect her to live long" so her life was adjusted to doing what she felt she could do, she never missed out on any treats or trips and she was 13 and a half when her legs gave out and had to be put to sleep. Like this lady, she too was an extraordinary character. Thank you so much for sharing 🐕🐕🐕
How could anyone pass up a pup like Ava! She is unbelievable! She has such a great temperament and the way she takes care of those puppies is priceless. Ava is also very pretty, and those eyes! They are beautiful!
Can you believe that many people are down on Pibbles!? Pitty eyes 👀 are so very expressive and, as you say, beautiful. Bully breeds are to be understood and not afraid of. We have had 4 pure Pibbles in my family, only 2 now. But the 2 are now San Diego beach bums. Pibbles hold a huge piece of my heart. 🐾
What nice people you are, most people would have run a mile but you stepped up and done a real decent thing for that lovely dog, she has made it longer than expected and part of that is down to the love and care you show that dog, you should be massively proud of yourselfs, we could do with more people like you in this world, thanks again for helping that dog, from England
Aww what a sweet face! I am so glad you took Ava overlooking her diagnosises! Thank you for giving her a life outside of a kennel! You are wonderful humans! Take care
She’s so beautiful and loving!! The boxer puppy melted my heart. There may not be anything medically you can do for her, but I believe love can create miracles. God bless you ❤️❤️
I LOVE the way they let her just live her flie! amazing dog parents. couldnt get a better momma and daddy! blessings for all of you, especially AVA! xoxoxo
What a great human being. You are the reason why this dog is still alive. The tender loving care you gave to that dog made her to live longer. God Bless you and that lucky dog that found someone gave her a second chance to feel that she is loved.
If Ava would have stayed in the shelter she wouldn't have survived this long. It's the love she is receiving is giving her the strength to go one. God bless the both of you for taking Ava and giving her a new lease on life. 🙏🏽
You are wonderful people, the very best in this world. I have tears for you and your loving dog that you rescued. My wish is that all dogs could find people that loved and cared for them xo
All respect to you. It's going to be tough saying goodbye. My own pup died in front of my eyes due to an illness. It was one of the most difficult times of my life. Even after so many years I still remember that exact moment she passed away in front of me.
Thank you so very much for loving this beautiful baby & giving her a real home with real love & care ❤️ Dogs are my life and I couldn't imagine my life without them. God Bless you both 🙏
An inspiring story. Thank you for your generosity. I know you put your heart on the line, but, thanks to you, Ava is living her best life. Always remember that.
Happiness, security and love, as well as a purpose in life can make our lives longer and better. This dog has all she needs to live her best, if not longest life. No pity, just joy.
Thanks to these people for saving her and giving her a wonderful life. Someday, I hope a LONG time from now, her heart will fail in the midst of "zoomies" but she will die HAPPY and that's all that matters! ♥
I am not a vet but this story touched my heart! “Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.” As they made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told the vet that they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience. The next day, the vet felt the familiar catch in his throat as Belker‘s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that the vet wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. They all sat together for a while after Belker’s Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that dogs’ lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, “I know why.” Startled, they all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned the vet. He had never heard a more comforting explanation. He says that it changed the way he will try and live. “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life - like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay for as long as we do.”
No one should be left alone including a yr she was in the shelter on her final days. Thank you for saving this wonderful family member. Spend as much time with them you will miss them dearly. I know I miss my Londen and Alley. Enjoy your life Ava you are loved by many..🥹
She's living her best life thanks to you! We're all going to go at some point - it's a lesson for all of us. Open your heart to a shelter animal if you can and don't wait to be happy
I adopted a 12YO cat last year not knowing how long he'll be with me. At his last check-up the vet said he was "fat and happy" with no health issues apart from his weight. He's very persuasive when it comes to getting fed.
It's hard to loose fur-babies at any age (young or old). But Ava's heart is pumping full of love and joy because of the love from her human parents, that in my heart, I believe she's going to last much much longer
these beautiful deserving animals sure know how to make us so happy and they tug so hard on our heart strings. God bless you and your family for taking that risk on her and doing what you do for rescue.
My ex-wife and I adopted a 14-year-old dog from the shelter in February. He is full of tumors and was very neglected. Nobody wanted him. He's now with us for almost 10 months and he is the happiest guy ever. Full of energy and living his life to the fullest. It is so rewarding to give these beautiful creatures what they deserve. We knew it would last maybe one week, maybe one month, maybe one year. But it doesn't matter. When he goes, he goes in and with love...
My sentiments exactly Mark. But with cats. Keep doing what you do.
You are heaven sent and heaven bound.

So sad that she had to spend one year in a shelter. I’m so happy that she was given a second chance at life. 👏🏼💕
Thanks 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌷🌷❤❤
It kinda annoys me. Lots of other dogs could have been saved and it probably added to this one’s trauma. 😢

I am not a vet but this story touched my heart!
“Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife Lisa, and their little boy Shane, were all very attached to Belker, and they were hoping for a miracle.
I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do anything for Belker and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.”
As they made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told the vet that they thought it would be good for six-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.
The next day, the vet felt the familiar catch in his throat as Belker‘s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that the vet wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. They all sat together for a while after Belker’s Death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that dogs’ lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, “I know why.”
Startled, they all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned the vet. He had never heard a more comforting explanation. He says that it changed the way he will try and live.
“People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life - like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay for as long as we do.”
Thank you for being her forever family.🐶
I hope she got her forever home she deserves.

Never underestimate how much love can add on to your years

We're all going to go at some point - it's a lesson for all of us. Open your heart to a shelter animal if you can and don't wait to be happy
I adopted a 12YO cat last year not knowing how long he'll be with me. At his last check-up the vet said he was "fat and happy" with no health issues apart from his weight. He's very persuasive when it comes to getting fed.
Theyre not just great dogs looking for loving homes but, loving dogs looking for great homes. Mission accomplished Ava! 💖
It's hard to loose fur-babies at any age (young or old). But Ava's heart is pumping full of love and joy because of the love from her human parents, that in my heart, I believe she's going to last much much longer
these beautiful deserving animals sure know how to make us so happy and they tug so hard on our heart strings. God bless you and your family for taking that risk on her and doing what you do for rescue.
God bless you ma'am and your family for just being good people.
