You are doing a great Job with the dogs. Greetings from Switzerland.
He looks like an Alaskan Klee Kai, Aussie mix. So handsome, and the perfect size for someone who wants a bigger dog but unsure if they could handle it.

Love this!
I lost my 30 year old son, then my 14 year old dog 6 months later. Both of my best friends... 1 1/2 years later, just got me another dog. He's my best friend! Bringing me out of the dark I was in..... 1.5 years old, Australian / German Shepherd mix. I love him!! We bonded tight!! Named him Boomer, to reflect my age...
Many blessings to you. Enjoy life and your bab, Boomer, in your life.
You're a strong person and I'm so deeply sorry for those you lost.
Bless you, I know that pain loss of best friends, be strong love lives forever.
@Rockykanaka Yay!!🎉We visited and put a hold on this sweet baby today. We are bringing our sweet fur babies down tomorrow, for a meet and greet! I will keep you posted 😊. We can’t wait to give this guy, the best Christmas, ever!! I’ll a reel for giving Tuesday and said that you can adopt a pup and save a life this holiday season-it is also the gift that will keep on giving( unconditional love, every second of everyday). We are so excited. We will give him the best life, ever. That is our promise to all of the sweet animals that we have rescued. This is an amazing community. Thank you Rocky(and family/team), Animal Friends of the valleys, and all of you for always make such an amazing difference in the lives of all of these animals. ❤

Did you adopt him?
@@huemanexperience1738 Hi! Yes! He is a part of our family now and we renamed him Koa. He is so happy and d such a good boy. We all love him very much!!🤗💛
@@denisejaskot931 awe ❤️..so happy for him and for your family.
I lost my fur baby boy on September 1st, 2023, and I am still grieving him so badly! His name is Charcoal, and I had him for 15 years. He was faithful and loyal, his entire life. He was a one owner dog, and it even took a while for him to tolerate my wife. Eventually he did, but nothing like his bond with me. I miss him so bad! Not ready for another fur baby yet. Thank you, Rocky, for your love and kindness toward all of these babies.
I just lost my dog two weeks ago after 13 years. This is the first dog I've seen that I would take in 😊
😢😢😢😢 This is a cool puppy.
He looks like he has some aussi in him
I am SO sorry. I hope you find your special companion soon, and that your grief is eased. They can never be replaced, but always live in on our hearts xoxoxo
I lost my Spike 9 weeks ago, I feel your pain and I'm sorry for your loss. 😢
@@otterssilver7299I agree, and Husky.
It must be terrifying for all of those little ones hearing barking and noise in the background. Thank you for all you do, Rocky!
I think that's why he growled because of the "noisy neighbor". He's sensitive. In my opinion.
So true on owner turn-in. Folks shouldn’t judge as owners could be facing very difficult circumstances . Both my parents died suddenly. My husband and I had very large hunting dogs, and my parents’ very small dogs would have been perceived as encroaching on their turf, and in all probability killed. We lived out of state, so our only option was the no-kill shelter in the area where my parents’ lived. It was hard to do, but it was the only thing we could do under the horrendous circumstances in which we found ourselves. It was a better situation than what we could have offered. We even reached out to other friends and family. No one wanted the small dogs. So please, understand that life’s circumstances can take many twists and turns. Some owners who must turn dogs in do so with broken hearts.
Great point, and sorry for your tuff situation, but like you said life sometimes takes unexpected turns and we have to do the best we can.
Better a turn-in than a roadside drop. Sometimes, folks get to zero on money and can't feed the beast. Love that he was a turn-in and not killed in the desert or abandoned on the street. Such a gorgeous dog.
He’s so sweet, and you can tell he really wants to get snuggles, he’s just scared. Good pick, Rocky!
I like changing it to giving some love. Former new ager, here. Too close lol.
I sat for someone's dog for a few hours, and he just sat leaning against the door shaking uncontrollably for 30 minutes while I tried everything to calm him down from 6 feet away. Nothing worked. He growled whenever I got closer than 6 feet. So finally I did as a wise friend had once suggested. I cooked up a few pieces of bacon and the dog was slobbering before the bacon finished cooking. By the time it cooled and I slowly approached him he was ready for anything I wanted to do, just to get that bacon. I did pretty much what Rocky does, and before 2 pieces of bacon were gone I had a friend for life. After that the owners told me they were amazed that whenever they took him out for a walk he would try to drag them over to my apartment door. :)
@@yukonstriker1703 yes, it was a really cool story, I loved reading it
Yes treat bribery is the best lol
Vaccinated no doubt
❤🐶🤣🐶❤
Lol this would probably work for a lot of humans, too. Not many people don’t like bacon. 😆
I have never donated money, aka "give thanks", to a TH-cam artist before, but I think what you're doing is awesome!! These videos really make a positive impact on the world. You're showing the world how to be kind by being a good example of how to treat animals. Love it! I don't have a whole lot of money because I only make $14 an hour, but I really want to contribute to this❤
Thank you Adell.💐🌹🙏
Every dime adds up, let alone the 💲
🙏🎉🙏🎉🙏🎉🙏🎉🙏🎉
Thanks!
Hi , I hope you see this comment - we live in Big Bear and my husband fell in love with him, I am hoping he can dash down there first tomorrow and meet him. He would have the best life up here in the mountains, he is an angel - he really lit up when you gave him attention. What a beautiful dog. I am so happy he got meet you and get some treats - he went from sad to IN LOVE with you!
Thank you ahead of time of you decide to adopt him.
So what happened?!
Beautiful pup. How did the meet go? So sweet
So, did it work out for you all????
Update?
Affirmations for dogs:
"I am safe and secure. I am not alone."
"I am loved and accepted. I am not a burden."
"I am strong and brave. I can face my fears."
"I am worthy of love and happiness. I deserve a good home."
"I am learning to trust people. I will find my forever home someday."
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 I love it
"I know what to do. I understand my world."
Awesome
I can see how someone would say he looks like a shepherd. When I first saw him, I thought husky/cattle dog. He’s a very sweet dog. He’s going to be a great companion for the right person.
Maybe Akita?
I’m thinking primarily Aussie with some definite Husky/Malamute and perhaps some Akita. I can’t imagine giving up such an awesome pupper; he’s surprisingly self-contained and confident considering how young/where he’s stuck being for the time being. If I were to name him I’d possibly lean towards Balto or maybe Buster.
I was wondering about cattle dog too with the spots on his legs🤔
I've had two shepherd/cattle dog mixes and this one looks for sure like a husky/heeler. The spots on the legs; the two I had seemed to wear a blanket and mask of the other dog's color, and the cattle dog legs and feet. The wide head and pointy muzzle. Heelers mixed with other dogs give them a very interesting foxy look to the face, like a Shiba except the ears are different. German shepherds or Shepsky's tend to have a longer nose like a collie, and even longer ears.
"Aussie" isn't a dog breed. Australian breeds are, Australian Shepherd ( which he's not), Kelpie, Blue Heeler, Red Heeler
Thanks for caring so much! 😊
you are a legend
@mr.chicken9811 thank you 😘
Ideasboutique ❤from yorkshire UK ..your a diamond x
What an incredibly generous, life-saving & life-changing donation! On behalf of every dog you just helped, thank you!
Thank you for donating!!! ❤
He desperately wants to be friends - even from the start it's clear. But whatever he's been through is why he was growling and saying "leave me alone". Treats are definitely a big help! He's definitely a clever boy! Finding that treat and pinching it was hilarious!
He is such an adorable boy and I hope he's going to get a forever family real soon. Much love to him and everyone looking after him 💕
Plus it might be part of his breed instinct to be on guard around his territory. He’s a doll.
im sure he will
He seems very frightened.
Joined today because you and your wife are amazing animal angels ❤❤❤❤
The noise of the shelter can be enough to scare but then add strangers all over the place. Plus being examined to make sure he is healthy. It's all a tense experience.
Nigel's a pretty puppy. I think he'll be adopted quickly.
That’s what I thought
I rescued a dog that was about to be euthanased and after a few years my circumstances changed that meant I was working long hours. My pup really needed a lot of exercise and also became very sad if left for long periods. I went to the local dogs home and asked for advice. It broke my heart but I was advised to let him go to a family home that would be able to give him what he needed. Cried for a week and will never get his look of sadness out of my memory. I made a call after a week and found out he had a family forever home and was settling in well. That was 25 years ago and I still think about him.
Awe he just lit up with treats and affection! He is precious!
Somehow whenever I watch Rocky interact with these pups I always end up smiling. What a precious being he is 🥰
He sure did perk up quickly once he got some snacks! Someone is going to be very lucky to bring him home!
There's so much negativity in social media and TH-cam, with the bajillion true crime channels, and dozens of interrogation channels and live trials being streamed every day, it's great to see a channel where good people come together to help with things like helping pay for animals well being, and paying so OTHER people can adopt them to good homes. It's just great to see all these good people going great things.
Every dog is an emotional support animal. He is adorable. Sweet and very puppy like.
Nigel appears to be an Inu-Husky. A designer dog from cross breeding between a Shiba Inu & Husky. If one googles it, you can see pictures. Sometimes these designer dog people also add shepherd into Inu Husky mix as well. All 3 of these breeds seem possible in Nigel.
I instantly thought the same, especially with how round his head is! And the distribution of his coloring! Definitely reminds me of a Shiba!
I agree I have two of those and his face and ears and sesame colors suggest it.
We have a dog (Lucy) who looks like a sled-dog, shiba, german shepherd mix.
She's a sweet heart and incredibly smart.
I completely agree I was thinking Inu
He is so adorable. It's so very sad that any pup has to be in a shelter.
Thank you so very much for everything you do to help these innocent souls ❤
I agree. Can we even imagine what they are going through emotionally being in an unfamiliar place, wondering what’s going to happen to them?. It rips my heart out, even when it’s a good situation, because they don’t know it is.
He
So sweet
That is one gorgeous dog and it's too bad I still can't financially afford a dog again. Hopefully one day I will be able to financially support a dog again. It's been 11 to 12 long years and it's been hard not being able to have another dog. I so appreciate what you do!❤
I had to turn a dog in once. He was a Shitzu and he had horrible ear infections. He hated being groomed so he had a lot of matting. His stomach was a mess no matter what we fed him. So he was always poopy furred and I was bathing him weekly, but it didn’t help the matting. He got to be where we couldn’t care for him. I didn’t have the money for grooming or training and didn’t know how Shitzus were before we got him. We got him from a family that bought him and then didn’t want him. We tried our best, but couldn’t manage him. It broke our hearts. Our neighbor offered to take him for us. We paid for the fees to turn him in. We didn’t have any other option.
It would be so hard to surrender your furry family,but it is better than abandoning or worse . Now he has a second chance. Thanks for spending time with these beautiful creatures 😊
Thank you for being such a beautiful person and being so kind to all the animals! God bless you!!
I want to do this!
Thanks for the kind words and watching 🤙
God bless you to. God is awsome.
What a pretty little dog! He seems cautious, but open to trusting. He got close to you pretty quickly. I think he’ll make someone a happy, loving pet!😊
Ive come back to watch your channel to watch. We have in London Battersea Dogs Home full of beautiful fur babies that all need a lovin home. Keep spreading the love and your message to people there are humans out there that have a massive heart that are willing to give these babies a loving home. This little guy is just adorable unfortunately im across the pond but would take him in a heartbeat. 🇬🇧
It is very hard for most people to bring their dog to the shelter. It is sad, and it is embarrassing. We should not judge that, it is far better to bring your dog to a shelter than to abandon them on the street or put them on Craigslist. That said, he is so beautiful with some much personality. I am sure he will have a great home soon.
Good point I never thought of it that way. Perhaps I need to be a bit less judgmental in future.
Just curious. What is wrong with listing on Craigslist?
@@americafirst9144 Seriously, good people with good intentions do not advertise animals on craigs list, any dog fighter, or sicko that can't wait to abuse the animal will be first in line. Backyard breeders.
That was a beautiful thing to watch! Nigel went from growl to pal! He’s very smart, he’ll be easy to train. I wish the very best for him. Thank you for all you do to get these little dogs a forever home.
growl to pal 😆👏
I watch this from the Netherlands. I am 71 years and every time deaply moved by the love with how you all are carying for these dogs. This is what our world needs: love and support alle that lives on this earth. Thank you for all you are doiing.
It is for sure sad that dogs get turned in by their owners, but it's 100 percent better than dumping them somewhere, or keeping them and neglecting them. Hope that sweet boy gets adopted soon. I'm scouting for a rescue in my area. :-)
What a beautiful baby 💙💙 He's got a raccoon mask! 😀
He’s beautiful and his markings make him look like he’s wearing cool sunglasses ❤
He's a cool puppy!
I thought the same thing! He is so cute!
What a lovely BOI Nigel is!
We had neighbors some years back. A couple with issues. The husband used to abuse the dog, to upset his wife . . . and he abused her too. Like you say Rocky, you never know. The wife surrendered her dog out of love, as was the only way she could see to protect him. I understand that choice totally. My hub & I covered his adoption fee. Cliff a GS sweetheart was adopted within 3 days. The new owners keep in-touch with his former Mom.
I hope she left her husband too
THIS DOG HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FACE MARKINGS. PRAYING FOR A HOME FOR HIM. AND ALL SHELTER ANIMALS, STRAYS, GET THE FUREVER HOME.❤❤❤
Seeing these beautiful babies who have been mistreated breaks my heart, I want a dog so badly but not sure I can afford to feed and buy them what they need 😢❤❤
Hello Tammy how are you doing today?
The different coloured eyes are so dreamy! So glad this dog was able to be less nervous towards the end, it was really heartwarming. Keep up the amazing work!!!! ❤❤❤❤
I agree. I want to do this. I want this puppy.
AND HE'S GORGEOUS 😊
Love what you do! I love volunteering for the local shelters and giving the animals some love. It's too bad that 30% of what you raise for the pups goes to TH-cam.
What?! Why! Their grubby mits are engaging in some next level thievery.
From another Doggie Channel, our Community members suggested donating via Buy me a Coffee, since YT claims 30% on the Thanks $ button.
Hence sharing.
Greetings mate.🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@NoNames-vw3bq Gotta love your Response ❗❗😆😂😝😅😆😂😝😅😆😂😝😅
Nigel warmed up to you, Rocky, amazingly fast❗
The way he pinched that treat right outta ya pocket, warmed my heart & made me LOL 😝😂😆😅😝😂😆😅😝😂👏👏👏
I took on a 6 year old badly treated Jack Russel who would growl wildly in unpredictable scenarios and if you didn't back away he would bite you. Three months of treating this dog well and walking him regularly and he is so nice and loving, I can leave him outside the shop tied to a post and twice I have come out to strangers stroking him and he is so happy of the engagement . It just takes some patience to help these abandoned or abused dogs, they just want love and you will get their trust.
It was so sweet when he tried to give you puppy kisses / licks in the your mouth when you were asking for the walking card. I don't think you even noticed it. Gotta love those doggie kisses!!💋
❤😂
Rocky and The Group; Rocky, you are terrific for what you do for these wonderful dogs that have fallen on hard times! Group, those of you who have Donated, you are all doing a fantastic thing, especially this close to the holidays!!
Bless you All and best of luck to Nigel finding his furrever home!! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, everyone!!
❤️🙏🐶❤️
Thanks for all you do
Thank you Mike ......and all the other generous donators ❤ 🇦🇺
Rocky, May God continue to bless you and family. Thank you for all you do for these precious doggies.
You are AMAZING!!! May God Bless you 🥰
He's a beautiful boy❤
Hi my friend how are you doing today 😊❤🥺
He's amazing!!! Very gentle.
He's so beautiful!
Hi Nana how are you doing today?
I love how he wags his fluffy tail. What a great ending to his day. More snuggles coming for him soon!! xo
Keep doing what your doing. These dogs need you!
My daughter and her husband both work for Michigan Humane, and many owner surrenders happen when the owner loses their home and can’t find a place to live that allows pets. It’s sad all the way around.
So thankful for what you do...
I agree! I want to do it.
Thanks for all you do.
Oh my word…. I can’t help but smile with your videos!!! Love what you do!!!
Love his facial markings, especially around his eyes ... like he's wearing a mask or glasses or something. Super sweet! ❤
Bandit
I love him. I would name him Scout. I had a malamute/Sheppard, he looked like a gold wolf. So intelligent, so loving, he was trained to be a therapy dog, was in all the parades, and mascot to a program for ID adults, loved by all. Had a long beautiful life. Now we have a yellow lab and cockapoo, also being trained. The key to success is to give them nutrition and grooming first, then a training program. Lots of love, attention and excercise. Any dog will flourish.
This was beautiful. The dog came around so quickly. Bless you
What an Adorable Pup!! Prayers he gets an awesome home!! ❤️
He kissed your shoe first thing❤ I want him… I will adopt him.. I had a rescue 14/15 years and they passed in 2020/2021… how do I go about adopting him .. I am in Texas and home .. no small children and I can pay for everything give the money to another person..he would be an only child.. we are in a house with a fenced yard on an acre
That barking dog next door would put me on edge! He's already looking for treats inbyour left hand.,
you and the dogs are definetly in my prayers , bless you
You are an amazing human being!!!
He reminds me of my sweet girl Lucy who I lost a few weeks ago to cancer. He looks a lot like she did. She was a Malmute, Cattle Dog, Shepherd, Chihuahua, Rottweiler, Lab, and 25% super girl!
I’m sorry for your loss ❤
I am so sorry for your loss.
Thanks to the people donating. You make a big difference!
the giving is amazing..... shout out to everyone who donated
Such a beautiful smile from him.
My ex husband and i had to put our beautiful border collie down last week. She was 2 weeks from turning 11. All our dogs have been rescues. I have 2 yet. One is a corgi/shiba mix from South Carolina. Losing our sweet girl was heart breaking. She had horrible hips and knees and other health issues. I sent this video to my ex husband. I think Nigel would be amazing for him. He needs a companion due to health reasons.
Thank you for all the love you are giving those dogs! It is so precious and important...
I don't know how you will feel about this but, he totally looks like a "Rocky" to me! Thank you!😊
Totally, he does have raccoon markings on his face. Or could call him Bandito or Bandit. But Rocky’s is cool too.
yeah i think your right
Shepherd/ Aussie is a great idea!
I totally agree!!
@@TeewriterRocky Raccoon! ❤
Nigel is absolutely beautiful and so sneaky finding that treat. I had to laugh with joy.
I just went to a pet fundraiser and won a raffle full of toys that I'm donating back to the shelter for the pups to have a toy for the holidays. I also asked my friends to donate a bag if pet food to the pet food pantry instead of giving me gifts for my birthday/Christmas. You never know what someone's circumstances are when surrendering thier pet. Could have lost thier job/home or illness. People fall on hard times. Especially if you live on a fixed income. That's why i like to donate a bag of food where i can every little bit helps. I can't always donate money but I can donate my time and help spread awareness to the cause. That's why I always share your videos Rocky.
I have so many pet loving friends on social media that I even told the special needs sanctuary i volunteer for, to visit friends of the valley next time she is in CA. She has started a non profit program to provide wheelchairs to paralyzed and special needs animals.
Bless this dog indeed ❤ 🙏 Thankyou
You are a great guy, thank you so much!
My sweet baby angel of 10 years growled when I first entered her cage. Then... in the meet and greet, she promptly pood right in front of me (I was sitting on the floor) and trotted circles around me. All as if to say, You still want me now?! I DID. Best decision of my life. Lol. 💖💕
What a stunning sweetheart! Such a gorgeous and polite pup! always so awesome to see the dogs slowly coming out of their shell ❤🐶
Such a sweet pup!
Hi camille where are you from?😊
Such a beautiful soul, i hope he finds a loving family!!
Rocky you are truly amazing , bless you for the patience and love you show these poor dogs.
Thank you so much for all you do to help these poor babies. You are just an angel
Oh he's gorgeous! If I lived in that area, I'd adopt him. I just lost my 15 year old mini Aussie in July. 😢
Nigel looks like a mask around his beautiful eyes, unique.
Thank you and God Bless you!
God bless you sir for doing this . These babies deserve a great life .😊
Thanks! For Nigel.
Thanks, Rocky.
Such a BEAUTIFUL...AND Smart... Gentle... Dog !!! ❤
You have a special gift and these dogs love you. ❤
Bless your heart for all that you do for these precious fur babies ❤️❤️
I love fur babies!
Rocky, thank you for all you do on a daily basis for all these sweet furry ones❤ melted my heart when he gave you kisses & got in your lap😊
He's such a beautiful boy! ❤
He reminds me sooo much of my pup I adopted from the shelter last may 2022 (who was also an owner return). Which makes it so easy to love him.
Thank you and your team for everything you do for these dogs! He is a gorgeous dog, love his eyes. I hope he finds a forever home soon!
Thanks Jamie!
He is a stunning handsome boy. Amazing. Hope he gets a good home.
I am a new member of your channel and God Bless You Rocky for what you do!
God bless you for what you're doing
Poor pooch seems a bit scared by all the shelter noises. Absolutely adorable 🐾
