Dougie. The poor thing, being dropped off by those scumbags at 14 years old. I lost my cat of over 20 years last year, and her companion who we adopted at 8 years old is still going strong at 20. People who abandon elderly pets are awful.
Please dont judge to fast, often old dogs are abandoned when the owner is to old (or sick) to take care of his/her dog and no one close to them wants to take the dog. Even more sad, the owner dont have anyone close to them.
@@marc1981tremblay I generally agree in that it's bad to quickly judge why someone would give up a dig. But it was mentioned that specific dog the owners dropped him off and then requested a new dog adoption form. Like a trade in. That's sketchy.
@@marc1981tremblay Our cat we adopted at 8 was put up for adoption because his owner passed away. Presumably no one in the family wanted him, which is a very different situation. The fact the previous owners asked for an adoption form tells me they firmly fall into the scumbag territory.
dog tales should’ve said yes, had them fill out a form with all their info, then blast the names across all shelters in the area so they couldn’t adopt again
I broke my feet today because I kicked my computer because someone commented that my videos are bad! I hate unjustified criticism. Please wish me a speedy recovery, dear tony
Uhhh, excuse me, but brain dead, nonsensical comedy is the best of the internet. I mean, helping animals is cool and all, but you can’t take the crown.
I love how this rescue/shelter looks more like a dog hotel. Each have their own rooms with nice comfortable beds, no sleeping on cement floors in a cage. So even if some of them spend a long time there instead of a forever home, they still get a little bit of that comfort there.
This is literally what my mom and I have always talked about creating if we ever won the lottery. I feel so warm and fuzzy knowing that someone out there actually used their wealth for something responsible and helpful. This is seriously amazing.
My dog, Sammy, was taken from a Family we were considering friends until we found out how they treated her: They got her for the pure sake of having a cute puppy. Once she reached age 5, they only took her out by attaching a leash to the outside railing of their homes staircase. Once she had done her business, she was put inside and attached to the inner staircase to not bother anyone. After we found that out, we called veterinaries and got asked if we wanted her. Of course we did! She was a lovely dog, but so starved for attention. The first time we took her out on a big field, she was actually scared of it. Needless to say, we cut ties to that family. We didn’t lose anything but gained one adorable floofball of Golden Retriever-Labrador mix. So my empathy for people that give away their dog for the sake of it being “old” is near 0. You wouldn’t want to be put in into a retirement home just because you’re old would you? I really hope all the dogs we saw in this video get a new forever home, they deserve it!
This is not to excuse dumping an elderly dog, but some people much rather be in a nursing home, some of them absolutely hate their family, while others love their family so much that they don’t want to be a burden on their family. Some people need to be in a nursing home due to deteriorating mental capacity and the family don’t have the means to properly take care of them. That being said, you don’t adopt a new grandma or grandpa, or parent when you put your Loved One away, so you shouldn’t do the same with the family dog. The dog already sees you as family.
You are a very kind person. Thank you for rescuing a beautiful animal and for taking a stance with that horrible family! I absolutely HATE people who get a dog just because it's cute, then proceed to neglect it. Do your research, and understand that having an animal is a lifelong commitment!! They are a family member, not a piece of furniture to leave in the corner of the room, or to dispose of when you're done with them : (
As the owner of a fourteen years old Chihuahua, I couldn't imagine abandoning him and trying to adopt a younger dog. How awful! I hope Dougie finds a forever home that deserves him way more than his first owners did.
I have had several different dogs in my life and my chihuahua will always be my favorit. I felt the same way about them alot of people do until I had one and now I have another 2 year old I love just as much.
I have a 16 Yr old cat and I love her as much now as I have ever done, we have been through a lot together. Older pets can give you a sense of understanding that younger pets don't yet have imo. I would/could never replace any pet with a younger model just because they are not cute or as frisky as they once were.
"they had the nerve to ask for an adoption form for another dog" I hope the reply was a punch in the face. Some people just need a strong reality check.
I'd like to adopt Dougie. Dougie is probably being appreciated a lot more now that he's at the rescue compared to when he was with his "family". Poor guy. I had a shih tzu that lived over 16 years and that little lady was every bit as fun and active when she was 16 yrs old. No matter whether Dougie is down to his sunset years or sunset months, he deserves to be with someone who richly cherishe00b The jerks that brought Dougie to the shelter thought Dougie didn't deserve a family but they had it wrong. Dougie most definitely deserves a family but that family should be banned from ever having a furbaby, featherbaby, etc!!!
I cant imagine surrendering such a old dog just because hes old. It's a feat to help your dog live a long life, why not see it through?? You brought them to old age with love and compassion!
100%. An animal is a commitment for THEIR life. I have a 17 yr old Husky x Huntaway x Shephard rescue boy. Wouldn't change him for the world or trade him. Some people huh 🙄
I adopted a 9 year old who had been with his family for 8 of those years. He died in 2018 at 13 years old. Sweetest dog I’ve ever known. I can’t imagine giving up a dog because he’s old. Seniors 💗💗💗💗
My dentist's assistant is a marvellous woman,who, along with her husband, only adopts senior dogs. She's done this for many years, and has lovely memories of a lot of different dogs, all of whom had a loving home for their golden years.
@@mahatmaghandi4288 if that is so then they never loved their pet. Who gives someone away for not being able to watch them getting old and die. Well, I have seen men doing this with their dying wives. And no, it's not love. No excuses. And if they can't afford the vet bill, don't ask for a new dog.
Dankan is my favourite, unfortunately he wouldn’t get along with our dog. We went in to Dog Tales to adopt a specific dog 2 years ago and ended up adopting a different dog with special medical needs and I’ll never regret that decision. She’s the sweetest dog and brings joy to my family everyday.
@@Gaius__ Yes, they all broke my heart a bit but Leon especially. He was so calm, like he couldn't believe anyone would do this for him. He looked gorgeous after, I hope they gave him a mirror! The Salukis are beautiful gentle dogs, but like all greyhounds, you may have to be careful if you have cats. Can't believe they were dumped. All the dogs were great, they just need love and someone who gives them a firm hand and works with them on any behaviour issues.
Esp since owners who abandoned him (sorry dropped him off) asked for form for younger dog. FGS that takes nerve. Feel bad for any dog adopted by them as they age or get sick. I will send love and light to him.
Dougie is such a sweet boy. His story was heart-breaking, especially considering the nerve of his ex-owners to ask for adoption papers for another dog.
Its actually better the owners did that instead of straight up leaving it on the street that many unwanted dogs found themselves to be in. We don't know the owner's side of story so it's not right to make judgements right away.
@@boysteacher3818 if they couldn't take care of a dog they had no right to ask for an adoption form. You don't trade in animals coz they get old like you do phones.
As sad as it is that some of these dogs may stay there forever, you can see that they love it. Food, attention, warm bed. Beats the alternative. I’m glad that these folks work hard doing this. So many good boys there! (And good girls)
3 things from this video: 1. That was incredibly generous of The Girl With Dogs and she is a very special person. 2. She lowkey looks like Pam from The Office lol. 3. Those Salukis are beautiful and if the location was closer, all of those dogs would be rescued almost immediately.
As someone who can't have dogs because of severe allergies. It breaks my heart to hear of people who give away their dogs just because they are bored with them. I hope they all find a home.
I love Dougie, it’s a true cold hearted person to just leave him there simply because he is an old boy. I never see how people abandon pets that they have for such a long time with such ease.
After 7 years on the streets in Israel, Leon has seen it all. What a sweetheart! I sure hope he is spoiled daily by the family that adopts him. 💗 Thanks for your videos, Vanessa, I adore them! And thanks for helping out Dog Tales, what a fantastic donation that you made possible! 🙌
Yes, a beautiful dog. I am horrified that so many of these dogs are breeds that are expensive to buy. I wonder if dodgy breeders there dump unwanted young dogs on the streets? I know in America the laws regarding animal protection and ownership are very lax, especially regarding wild animals. It's crazy. I guess a country that doesn't value the health of all it's citizens is not going to be great at protecting animals. And all these wonderful animal lovers there, who rescue and shelter animals, are left to struggle to pick up the pieces that the States won't legislate for. I watch a lot of rescue videos from America and so many people are so kind and give up a lot of time and money to helping. But it is often a drop in the ocean if you don't have strong laws. This shouldn't be left to individuals entirely. Breeders should be strongly licenced and other pet dogs should be sterilised. There are millions of unwanted dogs on the streets of many European countries too, and again, the laws are not strong enough in many countries. It's getting better in Europe, but it's too slow a process.
@Angela Tewson I’m Irish. I consider myself European. I live in Austria. Our continent is rife with inequality, racism, animal abuse, and poverty. It’s black calling kettle to claim the States are so awful.
That place is gorgeous, and I absolutely LOVE that each doggie room has a "dresser" of sorts. It just makes it more personal and homey. I can't wait to see more of these videos in the future! And that one dog's former owners are despicable.
And please remember: only get a dog when you can 100% assure that you can take care of it even after Corona is over. In my country many people got themselves animals during the start of the Corona pandemic bc they felt lonely and now all the animals return to the shelters bc the owners are all of a sudden „to busy“. Grrr!😠
better to not own one than do that. they're just adding to the burden of shelters by taking one which then gets replaced, and then returning it when its place was taken. hard to believe adults would be this irresponsible.
That’s exactly why I don’t get a dog. I love dogs but I don’t think I could look after one properly. I’d rather go without an animal companion than risk not being able it look after it.
Exactly why I had my fam hold off on getting a new pet. Kids will be in school and wont be hanging out at home all day like 2020. That was one of a kind
I've read too many of those stories and I seethe with anger every single time. Dogs aren't stuffed animals they grow attached. You don't get to return a dog bc you got busy. DROP THE BABY OFF AT A DAILY DAYCARE WTF.
I thought Dougie's story was so heartbreaking. I'm not a big dog person but all animals are innocent and need to be loved and appreciated. I love watching people help animals and it's awful to know there are people out there who just 'throw away' animals when they don't want them anymore.
I can’t imagine giving up my babies just because they got older 🙁 they must be so sad and confused wondering when their owner is coming to pick them up... it truly breaks my heart to think about.
God I can’t imagine giving up a pet cause they’re old. My heart was absolutely broken when I had to give up my blue heeler due my living situation. Her foster family ended up taking her on and adopting her, so that gave me comfort at least. But Dougie’s just an old man that wants to hang out on the couch, and probably still play some ball, I’d be down for that! I wish I could give all these poor babies a hug and some love, I hope they find good ppl to call family soon ♥️
@@Artofficial1986 some people get a puppy without clear understanding that dogs live for 15 years. But regardless your living situation, how can you give up on your friend? (Rhetorical question). Dogs don't need much. Even if you're poor, you can provide a good meal and a play time, the only things that dogs need.
@@alwayshangrygirl463 you don’t know what this person’s situation was and what they were going through at the time. For some people rehoming is the only and best option. For example, there was a 9 year old doggie in my local shelter who was surrendered because the owner had a baby and the doggie was very antagonist towards it and it became very unsafe. Also, I completely disagree, you can’t own a dog if you’re very tight on money. What if the dog gets sick or injured? Vet bills are very expensive and even things like grooming and decent quality dog food can take a toll on any one. It would be incredibly unfair for a sick dog to not get proper medication or surgery bc the owner couldn’t afford it, and in that case I think rehoming is a good option. It’s easy to judge someone who had to rehome their dog, but most of the time it was really for the best. I would take rehoming over neglecting an animal but keeping it any day.
I know exactly what you mean. I'm on Social Security Disability and I couldn't keep up with my donations to the various rescue organizations, which makes me quite sad. I am caring for 2 feral cats, 4 raccoons, and 2 opossums here at my house, but I wish I could do more!
People who abandon elderly pets should never be allowed to own animals again. You are their whole word, their everything. You're too selfish and cowardly to be loyal to them as they were to you their whole life? Awful.
A few years ago as we brought our dog to the shelter cause we went on a holiday vacation my mom fell in love with an elderly white fluffly but blind dog. His previous owner literally "dumped" him at the shelter cause they were not happy that he turned blind at around 10 years old. They also were not saying that he had medical issues wich later on caused a problem. My mom said "if we come back from the trip to get our dog back and he is still here we have to adopt him!" . In the second as we came back my mom was allready happy and exited "Is the big white fluffly elderly blind dog still here?" a staff said "Ah yes but..." and my mom was like "Oh great, I can't wait to see him!" than the vet came out from behind: "I heard you wanted to meet the big white fluffly elderly blind dog?" My mom knew that the vet dosn't mean anything good: "Oh can I?" she asked but the vet was like: "He got seriously sick in the past 2 weeks and I noticed he had an untreated illness wich maybe caused him pain for a few months allready. We decided it would be the best for him to take him down." my mom really became very sad :(
@@ACEsParkJunheeWreckedMeHard that’s so tragic he probably became sick due to the stress of losing his family. So sorry I bet your mom would have given him a good home.
Unless your severely disabled friend (m.s.) found a stray that was in his final stage of life and tried his best but couldn't keep up after a few months. The cat was incontinent etc. and my friend can barely move. He'd be fine with a normal kitty but at least he had the balls to take that dying cat off the streets when no one else did and gave it the best 3 months of its life. Her name was Gerry Rafferty 😺
It’s obviously bad when it happens but I will say, if you can’t care for a dog with health issues you should rehone them. There’s nothing wrong with surrendering an animal you can’t care for anymore, but trying to ‘trade up’ really is never ok.
How can people abandon and hurt dogs? not only dogs but all animals!? like they are so precious and loving! If I could I'd adopt them all! they all look like such amazing companions!!! As a person who owned a dog, it breaks my heart to see these poor dogs!! I hope they could and will find a loving home!!! (/≧▽≦)/
Dougie's story has my heart in shreds! My elderly pooch is my whole world, and I can't imagine ever leaving him behind. I can't believe they had the gal to try and get a new dog while they were abandoning theirs. Some people just shouldn't have pets. Elderly dogs are so special
Same! I adopted my senior dog last year. He was a stray, and it still boggles my mind that someone didn’t claim him. He’s the best dog ever, and I’m with him till the end. Bless you for loving your old baby so well!
Agreed. I've sadly had three pups pass on after a long and loved life and we were with them till the end. Treating that sweet old guy like toy that can be replaced when worn out is disgusting.
Ok, that donation just now has me crying. Will be going to know more about the sanctuary. Bless you so much for your dedication. May the force be with you.
I loved it when she said "they had the nerve to ask for an adoption form" the tone was 🤌🏻 might as well just said that "they are walking, talking pieces of sh!t"
Normally breeders get them returned if they don't work out, or breed rescue intervenes vigorously or a devoted group of owners and breeders snatch them out of shelters ASAP. I have participated in a transcontinental rescue for one that needed to go home, and been up all night apprehending an escapee en route to the West coast when people were needed to search. Saluki people take a great deal of responsibility for the dogs from their lines, even granddogs.
@@cobaltcanarycherry Quality, ethical breeders certainly accept dogs back. Sadly, most people don’t get their dogs from proper breeders. They get them from any random “breeder” who claims to have the right breed and only cares about making a quick buck.
I loved Leon, he was so chill about being groomed. He has a great energy about him. Thank you for helping out this rescue and in turn the many animals that are rescued there.
Omg Dankin is so handsome 😭🤍 I’m actually allergic to cats/dogs but I love them so much I take allergy medicine everytime I am around them. I hope Dankin finds a forever home, no doggie deserves to hop from shelter to shelter most their lives.
Leon is just an adorable floof. I can't believe this community was able to raise so much money for Dog Tales, it warms my heart. It's relieving to see how well loved the animals are there and that while they wait for their person, they aren't mistreated or ignored.
It always breaks my heart to learn when older dogs get abandoned at shelters. I can't imagine doing that. All of my pets are family - they're my babies. They aren't fashion accessories that you can trade in when you want a new model. I hope they all get the opportunity to be adopted in the future.
Thank you for all you do for dogs!! I’m a retired K9 Handler in Search & Rescue. My 3 K9 partners were all adopted from a Shelter, as well as my current pet dog. Dougie the dog really stole my heart. I hope he finds a loving home. 💜 🏡
Dougie is probably such a sweet boy!!!!! If I lived in Canada, and didn’t already have three dogs, I’d stop in and see about adopting him. He deserves a nice comfortable home at the end of his life. He should enjoy his retirement!!!
My granny’s new dog is a Galgo her name is Maisie she was abused left on the streets and made to hunt rabbits, and people would bet on which dog would win, if they didn’t win the would be abused more killed or no food. :( Thanks for your work
This hunting cruelty is happening in Spain constantly (Galgos are Spanish greyhounds). In Europe we have whole rescue organizations only dedicated to save Galgos and Podenkos in Spain and to find new homes for them in other European countries. Tell your granny she needs to be careful, Galgos are often not allowed to run off leash, because once they start chasing a rabbit (or other small animals) they don’t listen to their name anymore.
@@linajurgensen4698 this is very informative, also I hope Spain makes a law about it to make it illegal. I can't imagine how harsh the conditions are for those dogs :(
@@softmongreal2522 I don’t want to make you sad or anything but there are some horrific documentaries about the sad life of these dogs, really hard to watch, especially the way they get executed or abandoned after hunting.
Leon's transformation from cute to majestic is just wow. Also how calm he was throughout the whole grooming session. My dog is a rescue too and she fought really hard when she received her first bath. Especially the drying afterwards was a pain, because she (even after 5 years of having her) still doesn't like any kind of wind blowing on her head.
As a rescued dog parent I cannot pick a favorite 😍 My heart broke hearing Dougie's story.... Truly hope he finds a loving home soon! Thank you for all the amazing work!
If I didn’t live halfway across the globe I‘d take Leon (and really all of the others) in a heartbeat!! I hope they all find a loving forever home soon!! 💕
It is one of my dreams to open an animal sanctuary in Mexico since I was a child. Each time I went, I started to notice more and more stray dogs who lived in horrible conditions yet were still able to trust and let anyone pet them. My love for animals grew as I got my first dog, Coco. He was not wanted by his previous owners because he wasn’t able to breed or follow directions. They gave him out for free and were even willing to put him down themselves if no one wanted him. My family was in a bad place and we had lots of issues but I always tell my mom that Coco helped us go through it all. We are doing so much better now and I’d like to think that he knows how much we love him every day. Dogs and other animals should be treasured and treated as best as humanly possible. I love watching your videos and seeing this video makes me thankful that people will be more aware of the miracles animal sanctuaries are doing for animals in need.
I just lost my Bella two weeks ago. She was with me for over 10 years and I’m still shocked and miserable without her. Her bestie, Sissy is mourning too. Who knows with the cat.
Look at all those different beds! I love that some dogs sleep in wardrobes lol This looks like a beautiful sanctuary. I hope all the dogs find forever homes, but I think even those that don't will live happy lives being loved by the staff.
Those two greyhounds at the end are adorable! And, of course, Dougie! It's so sad how many seniors are in rescue: my last four dogs have all been senior adoptions, a 13 year old shepherd mix (she lived to 15), a terminally ill and ancient small breed mutt (I was able to give him a home and make him comfortable for 5 months before he passed), and two 11 year old chihuahua mixes, both still with me at 13+.
Oh that made me cry happy tears! If you live your convictions and let your passions be your guide, the funding will follow, from kindred hearts. We can all achieve so much, just by sharing our joy.
I hope Dougie, Dankan and Baxter get the perfect owners for them. I’m rooting for those three babies a lot. Also I loved Leon’s transformation and how good of a boy he was.
All those dogs are beautiful and deserve a loving forever home. I got a little teary-eyed watching the video and thinking about them needing a home. I'm sure the sanctuary is wonderful, it's beautiful, but one doesn't take the place of a living forever home and family.
I would love to have my Siberian groomed professionally. I’ve had her for a little over a year and she believes ANY grooming is dog abuse. Even toweling. Doesn’t like the feel of brush bristles on her skin. She’s not afraid. She’s a Siberian. Equigroomer to the rescue for the molting season which is always. Thankfully she’s not a dirty dog and she does enjoy rolling on damp grass. So she smells fresh even if also slightly green.
My heart hurts so much, since I was a kid I've had a soft spot for "mutts", strays, and any dog that didn't have a home. If I had the means to do so, I'd come down and spend as much time I could with all these sweet pups ( I call all dogs pups as an affectionate term) and would take one home but only if they were good with cats as I have a rescue cat who tends to be pretty playful. I hope these beautiful and handsome pups find their forever homes ❤
I've got to say, from watching numerous channels whose basic "thing" is geared toward awareness of various situations where people or animals are being put at risk, abused, or taken advantage of, that whenever the opportunity arises, it always becomes an outpouring of support via donations from chat members and followers. And I've watched many live streams where the people watching, DEMAND they be allowed to donate money - it's one of the greatest things I've ever seen.
I despise people who abandon old dogs just because they’re old. My dog of thirteen years recently passed away, we put her down when her cancer was too painful for her. It was heartbreaking seeing her declining health but I would do it again in a heartbeat because she loved and needed us and we loved her. We have two puppies now and you can bet that I will be with them until the day they die. Rest In Peace my sweet Copper.
I love all of them but Leon literally looks like he could be my dogs father and that just made me want Leon a bit more. I hope all these dogs get the loving homes they deserve! ❤
The salukis were my favorite. Any kind of breed like that, greyhound and borzois, have a special place in my heart. I hope these dogs find their forever homes!
Leon was so relaxed while grooming, sure he hasn't been there long and still needs to figure out what happens, but he seems so sweet. All the rescues are adorable and Pierre has a spot in my heart since I love Salukis. I currently own a rough collie named Lani. Thank you for helping out in the rescue center and making people aware that such awesome places exist.
This looks like the most well heeled dog shelter I've ever seen. Great job by the husband and wife team, but I think the money donated would go further with the countless number of kennels desperately in need of some cash.
I could cry looking at these dogs, however, they are in great hands at this great facility. Dogs only want love and affection. They love more than most people ever will.
I would absolutely adopt the old german sheppard Dankan if I could, sadly I live on the wrong side of the planet for that.. poor boy doesn't deserve to live in shelter after shelter! I really hope a good owner comes along sooner rather than later to adopt such a wonderful companion ♥
Big cheers to Dog Tales. On one hand, there should be more places like this, on the other, its fatal sin that these places need to be. Heres for success and fulfillment in your mission and life.
I'm not crying! You're crying! I'm new here so I did not participate in this fundraiser. I just want to thank and applaud everyone who contributed. You guys are awesome and inspiring. ❤
Dougie is my favorite by far. To know he loved his family for so long only to be left heartbroken by their abandonment is devastating. I hope someone comes along and realizes what a gem he is and gives him the best possible home for the remainder of his life.
Dougie. The poor thing, being dropped off by those scumbags at 14 years old. I lost my cat of over 20 years last year, and her companion who we adopted at 8 years old is still going strong at 20. People who abandon elderly pets are awful.
Completely agree! I bet those people will be abandoned when they grow old!!
Please dont judge to fast, often old dogs are abandoned when the owner is to old (or sick)
to take care of his/her dog and no one close to them wants to take the dog. Even more sad, the owner dont have anyone close to them.

Everyone disliked that.

Yeah it's like he was just a guy at the barber getting his hair done 😭😭
He looked like he was enjoying himself.

The little “Adopt Me” scarves are breaking my heart 😭
I really want to adopt one of them but she is in s different country😭
I love how this rescue/shelter looks more like a dog hotel. Each have their own rooms with nice comfortable beds, no sleeping on cement floors in a cage. So even if some of them spend a long time there instead of a forever home, they still get a little bit of that comfort there.
Agreed.
This is literally what my mom and I have always talked about creating if we ever won the lottery. I feel so warm and fuzzy knowing that someone out there actually used their wealth for something responsible and helpful. This is seriously amazing.
My dog, Sammy, was taken from a Family we were considering friends until we found out how they treated her: They got her for the pure sake of having a cute puppy. Once she reached age 5, they only took her out by attaching a leash to the outside railing of their homes staircase. Once she had done her business, she was put inside and attached to the inner staircase to not bother anyone. After we found that out, we called veterinaries and got asked if we wanted her. Of course we did! She was a lovely dog, but so starved for attention. The first time we took her out on a big field, she was actually scared of it.
Needless to say, we cut ties to that family. We didn’t lose anything but gained one adorable floofball of Golden Retriever-Labrador mix.
So my empathy for people that give away their dog for the sake of it being “old” is near 0. You wouldn’t want to be put in into a retirement home just because you’re old would you?
I really hope all the dogs we saw in this video get a new forever home, they deserve it!
thx so much for giving Sammy the life she deserves!
Awwwn bless you and your family 🤗😘
Wow! You're an incredible, kind person. That dog is clearly having the BEST life with you now! 🐕💜
This is not to excuse dumping an elderly dog, but some people much rather be in a nursing home, some of them absolutely hate their family, while others love their family so much that they don’t want to be a burden on their family. Some people need to be in a nursing home due to deteriorating mental capacity and the family don’t have the means to properly take care of them. That being said, you don’t adopt a new grandma or grandpa, or parent when you put your Loved One away, so you shouldn’t do the same with the family dog. The dog already sees you as family.
You are a very kind person. Thank you for rescuing a beautiful animal and for taking a stance with that horrible family! I absolutely HATE people who get a dog just because it's cute, then proceed to neglect it. Do your research, and understand that having an animal is a lifelong commitment!! They are a family member, not a piece of furniture to leave in the corner of the room, or to dispose of when you're done with them : (
As the owner of a fourteen years old Chihuahua, I couldn't imagine abandoning him and trying to adopt a younger dog. How awful! I hope Dougie finds a forever home that deserves him way more than his first owners did.
My Husky/Malamute mix is also 14, I feel the same way as you do.
Those yappy little rats are barely a dog. More like a chew toy
@@donvito5647 breeding such dogs is equivalent to inbreeding in humans. It's never good for them.
I have had several different dogs in my life and my chihuahua will always be my favorit. I felt the same way about them alot of people do until I had one and now I have another 2 year old I love just as much.
I have a 16 Yr old cat and I love her as much now as I have ever done, we have been through a lot together. Older pets can give you a sense of understanding that younger pets don't yet have imo. I would/could never replace any pet with a younger model just because they are not cute or as frisky as they once were.
"they had the nerve to ask for an adoption form for another dog" I hope the reply was a punch in the face. Some people just need a strong reality check.
I'd like to adopt Dougie. Dougie is probably being appreciated a lot more now that he's at the rescue compared to when he was with his "family". Poor guy.
I had a shih tzu that lived over 16 years and that little lady was every bit as fun and active when she was 16 yrs old.
No matter whether Dougie is down to his sunset years or sunset months, he deserves to be with someone who richly cherishe00b The jerks that brought Dougie to the shelter thought Dougie didn't deserve a family but they had it wrong. Dougie most definitely deserves a family but that family should be banned from ever having a furbaby, featherbaby, etc!!!
How awesome!!! I really hope you adopt Dougie!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Also had a shih tzu who lived up to 13. Dumbest fucking dog I’ve ever encountered but I miss my idiot still
@@Lil_Smo Well....They say doggos can take after their guardians... jus sayin!!!
I bet you had a lot of fun with your doggo!
Let us know if you succeeded in adopting Dougie!! ♥
Hey, did you adopt him?
They really need a T-shirt that mentions “Grinch Feet” on it 😄
Omg yeahhh
🤩😅
Yass
Hell yeah
Dude, what the eff are grinch feet?
I really like Leon. He is so calm, with such gentle eyes, almost human. I can see he is loving the attention he is getting.
Yea, he’s such a good boy. Hope a wonderful family take him in.
I cant imagine surrendering such a old dog just because hes old. It's a feat to help your dog live a long life, why not see it through?? You brought them to old age with love and compassion!
100%. An animal is a commitment for THEIR life. I have a 17 yr old Husky x Huntaway x Shephard rescue boy. Wouldn't change him for the world or trade him. Some people huh 🙄
Something tells me they didn't bring the dog to old age by love and compassion.
Everyone here knows this, but pets aren’t disposable.
I hope Dougie finds a home, I can't imagine giving up one of mine simply because they're older. It would break my heart.
That was disgusting.
I adopted a 9 year old who had been with his family for 8 of those years. He died in 2018 at 13 years old. Sweetest dog I’ve ever known. I can’t imagine giving up a dog because he’s old. Seniors 💗💗💗💗
My dentist's assistant is a marvellous woman,who, along with her husband, only adopts senior dogs. She's done this for many years, and has lovely memories of a lot of different dogs, all of whom had a loving home for their golden years.
One of my dogs is now 14 years old. He’s still lovely. It break my heart to hear this.
I'm about to cry, every dog deserves a loving home.
I was definitely crying. These poor babies, I hope they all find the most amazing owners!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was moved to tears watching these amazing humans care for the dogs. I wish all adoption centers were like this one.
Cats too!
Who drops off their dog because he's old and tries to trade him in for a younger one??????? What is wrong with people?
I think these people are forever not to be allowed to adopt anyone, not only pets but children too
Ikr thats fkd up... ik we all will eventually get a new one... but not like that and thats not how it works lmao
"my son timmy just turned 18, can i trade him in for a newborn?"
Experiencing the death of a pet is obviously extremely painful, and some people can't handle that. Or maybe they can't afford the vet bills.
@@mahatmaghandi4288 if that is so then they never loved their pet. Who gives someone away for not being able to watch them getting old and die. Well, I have seen men doing this with their dying wives. And no, it's not love. No excuses. And if they can't afford the vet bill, don't ask for a new dog.
Dankan is my favourite, unfortunately he wouldn’t get along with our dog. We went in to Dog Tales to adopt a specific dog 2 years ago and ended up adopting a different dog with special medical needs and I’ll never regret that decision. She’s the sweetest dog and brings joy to my family everyday.
Wow! You were really lucky enough to go to that actual place?! I hope it was as wonderful as it looks both for you and your adopted dog.
Leon is so cute especially at the end of his groom where he’s like “I’m tired, I’ll lie down now. Carry on.” 😅

He loved that grooming session, it's very obvious he was really starved of affection and a friendly touch.
@@Gaius__ Yes, they all broke my heart a bit but Leon especially. He was so calm, like he couldn't believe anyone would do this for him. He looked gorgeous after, I hope they gave him a mirror!
The Salukis are beautiful gentle dogs, but like all greyhounds, you may have to be careful if you have cats. Can't believe they were dumped. All the dogs were great, they just need love and someone who gives them a firm hand and works with them on any behaviour issues.
My heart broke for Dougie, hoping he is loved and cared for by a family or person who loves him, no matter what ❤️
Esp since owners who abandoned him (sorry dropped him off) asked for form for younger dog. FGS that takes nerve. Feel bad for any dog adopted by them as they age or get sick. I will send love and light to him.
fuck his old owner that is all
Hope Dougie's owners were refused the adoption form. They shouldn't have another dog/pet.....ever!
@@realise6 I think the refusal goes without saying.
@@jmc8076 you got it right when you said abandoned. His poor little heart is 😔
What don't you do girl?? You are amazing. You bless so many people and just keep on. What kind of go-go juice do you drink??? I bow to you.....
"Here's our old dog. May we have an adoption form for a new one?"
"Not just no. But hail naw."
Why not? If the evil government allows it it can´t be a bad thing ;) ;)
Sure hang on let’s see what we got ……. Looks like we got you a punch in the face and we will keep your dog thanks
Allow me to emphasize with a swift crotch punch!
3 month return policy
People like that just need to be shipped off planet.
Dougie is such a sweet boy. His story was heart-breaking, especially considering the nerve of his ex-owners to ask for adoption papers for another dog.
Its actually better the owners did that instead of straight up leaving it on the street that many unwanted dogs found themselves to be in.
We don't know the owner's side of story so it's not right to make judgements right away.
@@boysteacher3818 if they couldn't take care of a dog they had no right to ask for an adoption form. You don't trade in animals coz they get old like you do phones.
@@boysteacher3818 they asked for another dog come on that tells it all.. People are evil..
Okay but literally they asked the same shelter for another dog. Like.... No. No. No.
This is @boys teacher
My goodness these dogs are so cared for over there! Their little “rooms” are very well thought out. I wish all rescues/ shelters were like this!
Yes, this was really nice. Like a doggy resort / spa! Hopefully this video helps to get some of them adopted.
As sad as it is that some of these dogs may stay there forever, you can see that they love it. Food, attention, warm bed. Beats the alternative. I’m glad that these folks work hard doing this. So many good boys there! (And good girls)
Living better than many humans. They dontt deserve that.
I know. It must get super expensive
@@wigglyk2796 why don’t they deserve it? 😐
3 things from this video: 1. That was incredibly generous of The Girl With Dogs and she is a very special person. 2. She lowkey looks like Pam from The Office lol. 3. Those Salukis are beautiful and if the location was closer, all of those dogs would be rescued almost immediately.
Leon is so calm through the entire grooming process that you would think he's done it 100 times
As someone who can't have dogs because of severe allergies. It breaks my heart to hear of people who give away their dogs just because they are bored with them. I hope they all find a home.
Same.
Nobody cares

@@nitro_dynamite18 oh my sweet summer child. i take it you don't have much variety in Italian brands where you live?
I love Dougie, it’s a true cold hearted person to just leave him there simply because he is an old boy. I never see how people abandon pets that they have for such a long time with such ease.
After 7 years on the streets in Israel, Leon has seen it all. What a sweetheart! I sure hope he is spoiled daily by the family that adopts him. 💗
Thanks for your videos, Vanessa, I adore them! And thanks for helping out Dog Tales, what a fantastic donation that you made possible! 🙌
Yes, a beautiful dog. I am horrified that so many of these dogs are breeds that are expensive to buy. I wonder if dodgy breeders there dump unwanted young dogs on the streets?
I know in America the laws regarding animal protection and ownership are very lax, especially regarding wild animals. It's crazy. I guess a country that doesn't value the health of all it's citizens is not going to be great at protecting animals. And all these wonderful animal lovers there, who rescue and shelter animals, are left to struggle to pick up the pieces that the States won't legislate for.
I watch a lot of rescue videos from America and so many people are so kind and give up a lot of time and money to helping. But it is often a drop in the ocean if you don't have strong laws. This shouldn't be left to individuals entirely. Breeders should be strongly licenced and other pet dogs should be sterilised. There are millions of unwanted dogs on the streets of many European countries too, and again, the laws are not strong enough in many countries. It's getting better in Europe, but it's too slow a process.
@Angela Tewson I’m Irish. I consider myself European. I live in Austria. Our continent is rife with inequality, racism, animal abuse, and poverty.
It’s black calling kettle to claim the States are so awful.
That place is gorgeous, and I absolutely LOVE that each doggie room has a "dresser" of sorts. It just makes it more personal and homey.
I can't wait to see more of these videos in the future!
And that one dog's former owners are despicable.
Those good boys have a cooler-looking bed than I ever have in my entire life.
Soooo much nicer than my house, I’m putting on a dog suit and surrendering myself 👍
And please remember: only get a dog when you can 100% assure that you can take care of it even after Corona is over. In my country many people got themselves animals during the start of the Corona pandemic bc they felt lonely and now all the animals return to the shelters bc the owners are all of a sudden „to busy“. Grrr!😠
better to not own one than do that. they're just adding to the burden of shelters by taking one which then gets replaced, and then returning it when its place was taken. hard to believe adults would be this irresponsible.
That’s exactly why I don’t get a dog. I love dogs but I don’t think I could look after one properly. I’d rather go without an animal companion than risk not being able it look after it.
Exactly why I had my fam hold off on getting a new pet. Kids will be in school and wont be hanging out at home all day like 2020. That was one of a kind
Happened here, too. I knew it would happen once people went back to work.
I've read too many of those stories and I seethe with anger every single time. Dogs aren't stuffed animals they grow attached. You don't get to return a dog bc you got busy. DROP THE BABY OFF AT A DAILY DAYCARE WTF.
Pierre looks like such a sweetheart, he was enjoying getting his head blow dried. They all have such calm temperaments!
I thought Dougie's story was so heartbreaking. I'm not a big dog person but all animals are innocent and need to be loved and appreciated. I love watching people help animals and it's awful to know there are people out there who just 'throw away' animals when they don't want them anymore.
I can’t imagine giving up my babies just because they got older 🙁 they must be so sad and confused wondering when their owner is coming to pick them up... it truly breaks my heart to think about.
I honestly can't think of how sad and confused they must feel. Completely heartbreaking.
God I can’t imagine giving up a pet cause they’re old. My heart was absolutely broken when I had to give up my blue heeler due my living situation. Her foster family ended up taking her on and adopting her, so that gave me comfort at least. But Dougie’s just an old man that wants to hang out on the couch, and probably still play some ball, I’d be down for that! I wish I could give all these poor babies a hug and some love, I hope they find good ppl to call family soon ♥️
I know. All I'd want is for them to live longer and longer. Not get rid of them. I hate people. Honestly.
God I can't imagine giving up a pet cause of a living situation.
@@Artofficial1986 some people get a puppy without clear understanding that dogs live for 15 years. But regardless your living situation, how can you give up on your friend? (Rhetorical question). Dogs don't need much. Even if you're poor, you can provide a good meal and a play time, the only things that dogs need.
You gave up your dog and you have guts to say that you would adopt Dougi? Why wouldn't you adopt your dog back? It's a dog, not furniture.
@@alwayshangrygirl463 you don’t know what this person’s situation was and what they were going through at the time. For some people rehoming is the only and best option. For example, there was a 9 year old doggie in my local shelter who was surrendered because the owner had a baby and the doggie was very antagonist towards it and it became very unsafe. Also, I completely disagree, you can’t own a dog if you’re very tight on money. What if the dog gets sick or injured? Vet bills are very expensive and even things like grooming and decent quality dog food can take a toll on any one. It would be incredibly unfair for a sick dog to not get proper medication or surgery bc the owner couldn’t afford it, and in that case I think rehoming is a good option. It’s easy to judge someone who had to rehome their dog, but most of the time it was really for the best. I would take rehoming over neglecting an animal but keeping it any day.
As someone who's recently had to stop charitable donations and take on a 2nd job, being a part of this wonderful community of fans helps a lot. :-)
I know exactly what you mean. I'm on Social Security Disability and I couldn't keep up with my donations to the various rescue organizations, which makes me quite sad. I am caring for 2 feral cats, 4 raccoons, and 2 opossums here at my house, but I wish I could do more!
My heart goes out to Dougie. He and all of those pooches deserves someone who cherishes them as a family members.
People who abandon elderly pets should never be allowed to own animals again. You are their whole word, their everything. You're too selfish and cowardly to be loyal to them as they were to you their whole life? Awful.
A few years ago as we brought our dog to the shelter cause we went on a holiday vacation my mom fell in love with an elderly white fluffly but blind dog. His previous owner literally "dumped" him at the shelter cause they were not happy that he turned blind at around 10 years old. They also were not saying that he had medical issues wich later on caused a problem. My mom said "if we come back from the trip to get our dog back and he is still here we have to adopt him!" . In the second as we came back my mom was allready happy and exited "Is the big white fluffly elderly blind dog still here?" a staff said "Ah yes but..." and my mom was like "Oh great, I can't wait to see him!" than the vet came out from behind: "I heard you wanted to meet the big white fluffly elderly blind dog?" My mom knew that the vet dosn't mean anything good: "Oh can I?" she asked but the vet was like: "He got seriously sick in the past 2 weeks and I noticed he had an untreated illness wich maybe caused him pain for a few months allready. We decided it would be the best for him to take him down." my mom really became very sad :(
@@ACEsParkJunheeWreckedMeHard that’s so tragic he probably became sick due to the stress of losing his family. So sorry I bet your mom would have given him a good home.
Unless your severely disabled friend (m.s.) found a stray that was in his final stage of life and tried his best but couldn't keep up after a few months. The cat was incontinent etc. and my friend can barely move. He'd be fine with a normal kitty but at least he had the balls to take that dying cat off the streets when no one else did and gave it the best 3 months of its life. Her name was Gerry Rafferty 😺
They’ll get old too eventually.
It’s obviously bad when it happens but I will say, if you can’t care for a dog with health issues you should rehone them. There’s nothing wrong with surrendering an animal you can’t care for anymore, but trying to ‘trade up’ really is never ok.
Cannot believe someone gives up on Dougie because he got old, so sad :((
It's just a dog chill bud
@@donvito5647, And you're just a...

I loved the German shepherd. It’s always so hard to find a family that doesn’t have pets that will adopt one like him.
How can people abandon and hurt dogs? not only dogs but all animals!? like they are so precious and loving! If I could I'd adopt them all! they all look like such amazing companions!!! As a person who owned a dog, it breaks my heart to see these poor dogs!! I hope they could and will find a loving home!!! (/≧▽≦)/
Dougie's story has my heart in shreds! My elderly pooch is my whole world, and I can't imagine ever leaving him behind. I can't believe they had the gal to try and get a new dog while they were abandoning theirs. Some people just shouldn't have pets. Elderly dogs are so special
Same! I adopted my senior dog last year. He was a stray, and it still boggles my mind that someone didn’t claim him. He’s the best dog ever, and I’m with him till the end. Bless you for loving your old baby so well!
Agreed. I've sadly had three pups pass on after a long and loved life and we were with them till the end. Treating that sweet old guy like toy that can be replaced when worn out is disgusting.
Aww 🥰 it’s a Saluki. I’ve heard about these dogs, they’re very sensitive dogs that don’t want to play rough. I want to pet and cuddle 🤗 one.
Yea! And I heard Salukis are the second fastest dog breed with the greyhound :)

I loved it when she said "they had the nerve to ask for an adoption form" the tone was 🤌🏻 might as well just said that "they are walking, talking pieces of sh!t"
Crazy to see a saluki show up in a rescue.
It’s a middle eastern dog breed so it would be more common to find in Israel if I am correct.
It's very common in the Gulf, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and here in Algeria and all north Africa.
Yea this breed is quite expensive in Europe.
Normally breeders get them returned if they don't work out, or breed rescue intervenes vigorously or a devoted group of owners and breeders snatch them out of shelters ASAP. I have participated in a transcontinental rescue for one that needed to go home, and been up all night apprehending an escapee en route to the West coast when people were needed to search. Saluki people take a great deal of responsibility for the dogs from their lines, even granddogs.
@@cobaltcanarycherry Quality, ethical breeders certainly accept dogs back. Sadly, most people don’t get their dogs from proper breeders. They get them from any random “breeder” who claims to have the right breed and only cares about making a quick buck.
I loved Leon, he was so chill about being groomed. He has a great energy about him. Thank you for helping out this rescue and in turn the many animals that are rescued there.
I can't help but imagine if this were a cartoon and the rescues could talk. Like "The Secret Life of Pet Rescues."
Omg Dankin is so handsome 😭🤍 I’m actually allergic to cats/dogs but I love them so much I take allergy medicine everytime I am around them. I hope Dankin finds a forever home, no doggie deserves to hop from shelter to shelter most their lives.
My Uncle was allergic to cats as well, but he loved them so much - he had 7.
Leon was such an absolute angel! So incredibly well behaved for never being professionally groomed.
He was my favorite. So dark. So floof.
@@glamazon6172 mine too. And what an appropriate name for him. He looks like benevolent lion.
Leon was my fave. Hope he gets adopted. A lot of black dogs get passed over, but he is so calm and chill.
Leon is just an adorable floof. I can't believe this community was able to raise so much money for Dog Tales, it warms my heart. It's relieving to see how well loved the animals are there and that while they wait for their person, they aren't mistreated or ignored.
It always breaks my heart to learn when older dogs get abandoned at shelters. I can't imagine doing that. All of my pets are family - they're my babies. They aren't fashion accessories that you can trade in when you want a new model. I hope they all get the opportunity to be adopted in the future.
Thank you for all you do for dogs!! I’m a retired K9 Handler in Search & Rescue. My 3 K9 partners were all adopted from a Shelter, as well as my current pet dog.
Dougie the dog really stole my heart. I hope he finds a loving home. 💜 🏡
Dougie is probably such a sweet boy!!!!! If I lived in Canada, and didn’t already have three dogs, I’d stop in and see about adopting him. He deserves a nice comfortable home at the end of his life. He should enjoy his retirement!!!
My granny’s new dog is a Galgo her name is Maisie she was abused left on the streets and made to hunt rabbits, and people would bet on which dog would win, if they didn’t win the would be abused more killed or no food. :(
Thanks for your work
Some humans can be heartless huh. It's a good thing your grandma got her.
The things humans do to dogs is disgusting. Those people need jail time.
This hunting cruelty is happening in Spain constantly (Galgos are Spanish greyhounds). In Europe we have whole rescue organizations only dedicated to save Galgos and Podenkos in Spain and to find new homes for them in other European countries.
Tell your granny she needs to be careful, Galgos are often not allowed to run off leash, because once they start chasing a rabbit (or other small animals) they don’t listen to their name anymore.
@@linajurgensen4698 this is very informative, also I hope Spain makes a law about it to make it illegal. I can't imagine how harsh the conditions are for those dogs :(
@@softmongreal2522 I don’t want to make you sad or anything but there are some horrific documentaries about the sad life of these dogs, really hard to watch, especially the way they get executed or abandoned after hunting.
Leon's transformation from cute to majestic is just wow. Also how calm he was throughout the whole grooming session. My dog is a rescue too and she fought really hard when she received her first bath. Especially the drying afterwards was a pain, because she (even after 5 years of having her) still doesn't like any kind of wind blowing on her head.
As a rescued dog parent I cannot pick a favorite 😍
My heart broke hearing Dougie's story.... Truly hope he finds a loving home soon!
Thank you for all the amazing work!
I just loved Leon. He is so fluffy, and has what seems like a very chill personality
What a chill baby! Would probably be great with kids too
@@SarahStudt Yeah! He wouldn’t be too laid back, since he’s not necessarily an old dog yet, but he also wouldn’t be too rough with the kids
If I didn’t live halfway across the globe I‘d take Leon (and really all of the others) in a heartbeat!! I hope they all find a loving forever home soon!! 💕
It is one of my dreams to open an animal sanctuary in Mexico since I was a child. Each time I went, I started to notice more and more stray dogs who lived in horrible conditions yet were still able to trust and let anyone pet them. My love for animals grew as I got my first dog, Coco. He was not wanted by his previous owners because he wasn’t able to breed or follow directions. They gave him out for free and were even willing to put him down themselves if no one wanted him. My family was in a bad place and we had lots of issues but I always tell my mom that Coco helped us go through it all. We are doing so much better now and I’d like to think that he knows how much we love him every day. Dogs and other animals should be treasured and treated as best as humanly possible.
I love watching your videos and seeing this video makes me thankful that people will be more aware of the miracles animal sanctuaries are doing for animals in need.
Everything about this is "WHOLESOME" hope every floofers meets their forever family. My GSD gives his fart of approval
"fart of approval"🤣🤣🤣

@@DaMugix3 Im down with that
I just lost my Bella two weeks ago. She was with me for over 10 years and I’m still shocked and miserable without her. Her bestie, Sissy is mourning too. Who knows with the cat.
I loved that small glimpse of Shank, I have my own Rottweiler mix and they are just adorable!
Look at all those different beds! I love that some dogs sleep in wardrobes lol This looks like a beautiful sanctuary. I hope all the dogs find forever homes, but I think even those that don't will live happy lives being loved by the staff.
Dougie's story broke my heart. I cannot stop crying. How selfish and inhumane we are.
How selfish and inhumane we are capable of, the fact this shelter exists means the opposite is also true
Those two greyhounds at the end are adorable! And, of course, Dougie!
It's so sad how many seniors are in rescue: my last four dogs have all been senior adoptions, a 13 year old shepherd mix (she lived to 15), a terminally ill and ancient small breed mutt (I was able to give him a home and make him comfortable for 5 months before he passed), and two 11 year old chihuahua mixes, both still with me at 13+.
Thank you for giving those older folks a loving home!
Oh that made me cry happy tears! If you live your convictions and let your passions be your guide, the funding will follow, from kindred hearts. We can all achieve so much, just by sharing our joy.
Dougie’s story breaks my heart and makes me so angry. And Dankan is so beautiful. How can anyone throw away a life??
Congrats on all your hard work.. you deserve nation-wide recognition for volunteering and fund-raising
International 😉
I hope Dougie, Dankan and Baxter get the perfect owners for them. I’m rooting for those three babies a lot. Also I loved Leon’s transformation and how good of a boy he was.
All those dogs are beautiful and deserve a loving forever home. I got a little teary-eyed watching the video and thinking about them needing a home. I'm sure the sanctuary is wonderful, it's beautiful, but one doesn't take the place of a living forever home and family.
Wow a animals feet really show his or hers life…..especially from your other clients……big difference.Prayers for adoptions….for all.
I would love to have my Siberian groomed professionally. I’ve had her for a little over a year and she believes ANY grooming is dog abuse. Even toweling. Doesn’t like the feel of brush bristles on her skin. She’s not afraid. She’s a Siberian. Equigroomer to the rescue for the molting season which is always. Thankfully she’s not a dirty dog and she does enjoy rolling on damp grass. So she smells fresh even if also slightly green.
Awww....the doggies sad face. 🙁 Hope he/she found a lovely forever home.
Aww . Leon was my favorite.so calm, so sweet. Who am I kidding…they are ALL my favorites.
I really enjoyed watching you groom Scotch. Definitely my favorite. At 18 months he is so calm. He is also beautiful.
You definitely deserve more attention for your contribution to dogs honestly it's amazing that you are helping many dogs who need help
My heart hurts so much, since I was a kid I've had a soft spot for "mutts", strays, and any dog that didn't have a home. If I had the means to do so, I'd come down and spend as much time I could with all these sweet pups ( I call all dogs pups as an affectionate term) and would take one home but only if they were good with cats as I have a rescue cat who tends to be pretty playful. I hope these beautiful and handsome pups find their forever homes ❤
I've got to say, from watching numerous channels whose basic "thing" is geared toward awareness of various situations where people or animals are being put at risk, abused, or taken advantage of, that whenever the opportunity arises, it always becomes an outpouring of support via donations from chat members and followers. And I've watched many live streams where the people watching, DEMAND they be allowed to donate money - it's one of the greatest things I've ever seen.
I despise people who abandon old dogs just because they’re old. My dog of thirteen years recently passed away, we put her down when her cancer was too painful for her. It was heartbreaking seeing her declining health but I would do it again in a heartbeat because she loved and needed us and we loved her. We have two puppies now and you can bet that I will be with them until the day they die. Rest In Peace my sweet Copper.
All my dogs have been rescued, you never know how much you’ve changed their lives until you watch this type of videos. All dogs deserve a family.
I love all of them but Leon literally looks like he could be my dogs father and that just made me want Leon a bit more. I hope all these dogs get the loving homes they deserve! ❤
Omg. This women both women actually, are beautiful people with hearts of gold. This is so sweet, and the sanctuary is heaven. It looks so cute!!!
I wonder how well behaved all those dogs must be so that the beautiful, perfect garden stays in that condition! Such angels!
The salukis were my favorite. Any kind of breed like that, greyhound and borzois, have a special place in my heart. I hope these dogs find their forever homes!
Leon was so relaxed while grooming, sure he hasn't been there long and still needs to figure out what happens, but he seems so sweet. All the rescues are adorable and Pierre has a spot in my heart since I love Salukis. I currently own a rough collie named Lani. Thank you for helping out in the rescue center and making people aware that such awesome places exist.
This looks like the most well heeled dog shelter I've ever seen. Great job by the husband and wife team, but I think the money donated would go further with the countless number of kennels desperately in need of some cash.
All shelters need cash, unfortunately.
I could cry looking at these dogs, however, they are in great hands at this great facility. Dogs only want love and affection. They love more than most people ever will.
I would absolutely adopt the old german sheppard Dankan if I could, sadly I live on the wrong side of the planet for that.. poor boy doesn't deserve to live in shelter after shelter! I really hope a good owner comes along sooner rather than later to adopt such a wonderful companion ♥
I would love a huge dog like Leon, especially if he's super chill.
Big cheers to Dog Tales. On one hand, there should be more places like this, on the other, its fatal sin that these places need to be. Heres for success and fulfillment in your mission and life.
I'm not crying! You're crying!
I'm new here so I did not participate in this fundraiser. I just want to thank and applaud everyone who contributed. You guys are awesome and inspiring. ❤
Welcome! This is a great place to be!
Dougie is my favorite by far. To know he loved his family for so long only to be left heartbroken by their abandonment is devastating. I hope someone comes along and realizes what a gem he is and gives him the best possible home for the remainder of his life.
I really like Dougie because he’s a cutie and he deserves to live his final years happily with an owner that loves and cares for him 🤍
Oh, Sirius 😍😭😍😭 what a beautiful boy, waiting so patiently all these years for his furever home! If I were closer I’d be his person in a heartbeat.
