Come on people! How can you be upset about Lee sharing what was a fatal, devastating, unknown, sudden illness in his children? He wanted us all to be aware and keep an eye on OUR fur babies. Let's put our "adult" pants on, and be thankful for all he has done and is continuing to do! I, for one, am thankful to have him advocating for my fur baby! Blessings and speedy recovery for your pack, Lee!!!
Lee, for every negative person out there, there are hundreds of us who are proud of you for your openness and especially for your awesome love for dogs and all animals! And I'm sure I'm not the only one who can hardly wait each day for your updates! Bless you and prayers continuing for you, the vets, and all who are fighting to find the answers and the cures!!! 🙏💖
Love your response. I hold my breath when Lee has an update. I need to hear even if it's not good. I think Lee is amazing in his reaction and competency. The state Vet, wow. So good to hear.

Never apologize for being real and being responsible. Anyone that knows you knows you were really trying to help others. You are good with us.😊👍🙋🏻♀️💜🙏🌻🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕
I am so glad you share your feelings with us…..I am honored you think enough of us to let us know when you need support! You are special to this group! We love you and the dogs! ❤️
Just face it, the Asher House dogs are OUR DOGS!!! We know them! Thank you for sharing information with us. We're proud of you and your resolve. Shelby's a fighter. We've learned this before. Our love and compassion goes out to you and OUR DOGS. Roo will be missed greatly. We knew that greater things were coming for her, but who truly knows what kind of life she had before she got to experience the love that she got at the sanctuary. I mean, she arrived missing a leg!! Thank you all for giving her peace. Everything is going to be all right. 💗💗
You are a true blessing Lee. People need to get their heads out of the sand. Most have complex hardships. We are not meant to live silently & stating the facts of the matter (including the emotions behind those details) is all part of sharing our struggles & learning from each other. Thank you for your devotion!
Thank you for your honesty, stop worrying about what people think or say about you just go and do what your heart is telling you to do. We love you and pray for you and the dogs.
I am a 75 year old grandmother and love you as much as I love my grandson. I am sending you vibes and prayers for you and your family of pets. Good luck.
I didn't think your prior video showed "panic", I saw it as a public awareness video. I, personally, appreciate the truth, good or bad. Keep up the great work Lee. You rock! And I love your pups as I love my two knuckleheads! ❤️
No one in their right mind would be upset with you for sharing the experience you have been through, especially if it can save another dog. We are blessed to have you!
You don't need to defend your credibility to ANYone! You're loved and respected and appreciated. End of story. I've run a rescue for 16 years and some people will always find a way to diminish amazing work!
Stop apologising, these people are horrible & don’t deserve ur energy. You are a wonderful, caring person with a huge heart. Please don’t let the negativity make u feel bad, u deserve all the love that’s coming from those who are on the same wavelength as you. Luv & hugs to you & all the animals ❤❤❤
@@PatriciaLawlee-q2e Totally agree 🧡, he’s such a wonderful soul and doesn’t need the added nonsense of individuals who do nothing in life but complain and judge. ❤️🧡🐾🐾
Because of you bringing such quick attention to this on a powerful public forum, the state of Oregon has now put this on a front burner. Many times it takes this type of attention before the extent of action needed is taken. YOU DID THIS, LEE. You have helped saved countless lives of our beloved companions. Thank you
I don't understand why some people were upset by your heartfelt, open sharing about what's been happening! You did nothing wrong, and have nothing to apologize for! Disappointing to hear that some people responded with judgment instead of compassion and understanding. Glad to hear the positive update. Thank you for caring so deeply about helping our furry friends. 💛
Thank you, Lee, for keeping us updated about your precious dogs. We've grown to love them so much, too and so happy to hear the positive that you've let us know so clearly. We truly can't say how much we see and hear from you . Don't worry or let negative people get to you ! They are negative and hurtful in their on lives and want to take others down to their level of misery. We just have to ignore bad behavior. We love you and everything you do !! ❤❤❤
? I have heard some wonderful things about it. Native Americans came up with it. Please check it out on internet site. I knew a woman (I have lost contact with her since they moved to another state.) She was diagnosed with cancer and given 6 weeks to live. She went on essiac because she had heard it made passing easier. When she went back to the Dr, her cancer was gone. Another friend had her son in law diagnosed with lung cancer. He got on it immediately and when he went back, his cancer was gone. I had a dog who was diagnosed with cancer in his sinuses. I didn't know about essiac then or would surely have tried it. It doesn't work 100% of the time, but worth a try. It isn't expensive, somewhere around 30 dollars a month. Just wanted to let you know. I could give more examples,but wanted to keep this short.
Your quick action probably saved most of your pack. You talk to us to help you process. Your processing and sharing helps us. Your audience loves dogs and we love you. We are praying for you. Hang in there.
The fact is that you could choose to have a media blackout. Instead, you keep your followers and those who click on your videos in the loop regarding what is going on. You inform, educate, update, and send love, even when it is hard. We are blessed that you're the voice and the strength for those that can't speak for themselves. Thank you Lee. Keep up the good work, and I pray you can grab a moment here and there for yourself.
Bless you, Lee, for giving us all a heads up! One of our dogs was puny yesterday..way off. Thankfully our Vet was able to see us right away. Already had a biopsy waiting for results. While this is not related, we learn that the acting swiftly, can make all the difference in the world. Lee, you are the most responsible guy on the planet! Block out the negative ninny types! They are out there in all walks of life.. they don’t know what they are talking about! You did good… 🙏 ❤️ 🕊️
I have been sick 5 times. Really bad and that happened in 6 months. I dont know why or how. Doctor doesnt have any answer. My lungs were really painful when i was breathing.
Ditto here... 67 retired live in Florida an have never had a allergy issue. Bought more Benadryl and tissue this year, then, I ever needed growing up in Wisconsin.
Shame on the ones that got UPSET......REALLY!!!!! Thank you, LEE, for letting US know what is going on. Being a dog owner of 2 fur babies, I WANTED and NEEDED to know❤
You shouldn’t have to apologize for being transparent and informing people of something that we as animal owners should be aware of that could possibly affect our own pets. I appreciate all that you do.
I just can't imagine anyone being upset with you for being honest and vulnerable about what was happening at Asher House.Your updates were/are important to us. Lee you are an extraordinary human being. ✨️💖✨️
You are updating us and keeping us informed on behalf of all dogs and their owners. It is informative and important. It can save a life. And I believe that by you being open and transparent and working with professionals in reference to this disease, you will make yet another important and profound positive impact on the health and well-being of dogs all around the world 🌎 ❤ 🐕 we are thankful for you❤❤
we are truly thankful. through watching your videos, I am sure I am not alone in saying I've come to love these different personalities. I (we) want them all to be ok!
Don’t apologize for your concern and heartfelt reaction to this unknown canine problem! Thank you for giving information to all us dog lovers and all of us who are lovingly “owned” by a dog. Knowledge is power!
Lee you did EVERYTHING RIGHT! You brought attention to all pet owners to notice subtle signs with their own dogs. You can’t please everyone all the time and there will always be those who will come out being negative but THIS community SUPPORTS you!!! ❤👍🏻❤️
There's no need to apologise, champ. You give a piece of yourself to each animal you help. We all see and feel it. You just keep being you, that's why we all love you, mate, sending love from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺.
Please ignore the haters. The majority of Asher house lovers are behind you 100%. This kind of stress is debilitating. Give yourself positive credit. Your mission of loving and caring for the dogs that live on the fringes is admirable. Let’s all give Lee ❤
I can't imagine you having haters! I love you, your dogs, your wisdom, your spirit. You are an angel for the babies that come to you! Keep doing what your doing and educating the animal lovers in the world. May God bless you and all you do in life!
Lee, first off, deepest condolences about Roo passing. 💔😢 My husband and I just lost our 15 yr old fur kid this week so our hearts go out to you about Roo. And please know that most of your devoted supporters understood why you reported the outbreak and stressful situation. We know you would never stir up things on purpose to cause any trouble. You and your rescue org do such amazing and life saving work! T.A.H. is a real blessing. Hope things get back to normal soon and ignore the negativity. ❤️🙏💪
Lee, you do not ever need to apologize. Those that know who you are, and know your passion and love for animals understand you’re there to help and educate. What they take out of it and interpret is their doing. You’re wonderful, and we are grateful for your upfront, honest communication, as well as keeping us in the loop with your babies. Keep being you, and doing the amazing things you are. I wish you, all the babies, your staff, and the entire sanctuary well, and speedy recovery. ❤🐶💙🫶🏻
Transparency is being responsible and it helps educate masses of dog parents/guardians. We love and appreciate you, Lee, and your cause. Thank you to everyone whose donations and prayers helped save these precious dogs. Rest in Heaven to the dogs that crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Gone but not forgotten. 💗🙏💗
Lee you are a beautiful and honest animal lover your response shows how you feel and love every single animal you touched. I know you must be tired and worried we will walk every step of this problems with you. God bless all the way from South Africa ❤❤
I am glad that Roo got to know your kindness and a lovely life. Roo had the choice to stay home and not go on pack walks but she came on walks and was living her best life. I am sorry that you and yours had to suffer her loss, but I am glad she got to be with you through it all. I am looking forward to hearing Lily while you are filming again. Thank you for the updates. Love to you all.
“I am glad that Roo got to your kindness and a short lovely life. You are right Roo had the choice home not go on pack walks but she came on walk and was living her best life” shortly lived. I think you mean I am sorry you and your team had to suffer her loss.
No need to apologize, I would’ve panicked if I were in your shoes looking for help from everyone! So glad to hear you’ve got such a supportive and wonderful audience. The Oregon state veterinarian is a great resource, so happy to hear they are helping.
Dear Lee, you have done a phenomenal job at both handling a scary situation with no clear answers, as well as relaying to the public ongoing updates! You always do what's in the best interests of your pack, and with the generous help of your Vet and the Oregon State Vet in regards to care and finding solutions, you and the pups will surely see the other side of this! Until that day of total relief comes, sincere and continued prayers for the pack, as well as for sweet Lady's lung biopsy to come back negative and for her and the other pups to receive a clean bill of health!
Thanks for your nice comment - I agree with you. GOD BLESS THE ASHER HOUSE AND ALL THE OTHER DOGS THAT ARE SICK AND RECOVERING FROM THIS TERRIBLE ILLNESS.
Good morning Lee! You need to stop apologizing for this, you are human being with heart, feelings and Love for animals. The Only two kind of people who would be upset about it is: A) People who hate animals and B) People who own animals, do not care about them and think they are replaceable. We as animal loving community do not care about their opinions. Thank you for all you do! Sending love from Washington State.🥰
@@angelanicholson951I contacted a psychic about this situation last night. She said Lee is Avery old soul. And was a monk in a previous life ! That makes sense. All the Introspection. Plus his love for all the animals. ! We are very fortunate to have such an old soul in this position. Not just taking in all the dogs and animals. But I think Lee is going to be a , Beacon, for Animal Welfare. His journey has only just started. We all love him so much.
You are the best advocate for animals yours and others. The animals at your sanctuary are blessed to be with you and your staff. Each and every creature has the lord in their life. They will reach the Heavenly sanctuary.
Lee you can not please the world. Those that Love the Asher House know you , you spoke from your heart, I almost lost my mind when my dog of 14 years got sick, The vet was really to put me out of her office, I loved my dog in the deepest part of my soul . Those who know you love you. let it go Lee !!! No need to apologize for your love for the pack !! WE Get It !!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lee....never, ever apologize for being you. My sincere condolences to you and your team for the loss of Roo. She was loved so much and she was so happy before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you for being honest and informing us all about this. Please keep us updated. Glad to hear Lily and Cece are better. Continued prayers for Lady and Shelby. And Lee....you look so exhausted. I know you and your team must be wore out. Please try and rest when you can. ❤️🙏🐶
I don't really understand why anyone would be upset with you for informing us of what is going on. I truly appreciated it and thank you for everything. ❤
Lee, Don't ever apologize for sharing. We all Love you and support what you do. We need updates as much as you need them. Praying for all at the sanctuary. Lee, All furbabies and Staff. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Lee, I am so relieved that things are going better for Asher House and you! Seems Judgement comes so easily to the ignorant & hateful. You have to forgive yourself for a frightened response! The public that over reacted cannot blame you for their own panic. You are a sweet & loyal animal lover rescue leader, not a hostage negotiator.❣Blessings for continued Healing. ❤🩹🤟
Thank you for the update and showing Tommy and some of the other dogs , so we know they're o.k. I appreciate all you do and the amount of love you have for every animal you give a safe home. Sending love and healing to all of you.
The more I'm listening to Lee about the symptoms, the more I'm convinced it's some sort of Dog COVID,. He just mentioned Shelby. Having some of his other organs affected, Hello. Exactly what happened to some of the very early COVID patients in ICU,s. Maybe the bloomin virus has jumped species ! And Lee looks exhausted, When all this is over, I pray he can take a long rest. ❤❤
As a medical professional I can tell you this is a lot how Covid started. We didn’t know how to treat it at first and it was tough in the beginning. This information is so helpful because it’s all about sharing your experience! It will help vets solve this because this gives them data. It’s extremely traumatic to be in your situation so ignore the negative comments they don’t get it
I consulted with Oregon State with a dog I had years ago (from Florida!). I'm so glad they're working with you. Great group of folks there! Appreciate all the HONEST updates, Lee. I'm so happy to hear Tommy, Cece, Lilly, and others are better and keeping my thoughts trained to Lady and Shelby. Rest in peace, Roo...we'll keep the kibble out for you!
Lee, don't apologise for caring, your love and compassion for your animal babies shines, your an amazing person and so is your team, bless you all, sending love and a quick recovery for all fur babies
Lee, your people who are really behind you, your community, the millions that follow, you adore you. You are amazing. You are the most honest, genuine, beautiful, heart, soul, and spirit. Know that I say 99.9% of us appreciate your honesty more than you’ll ever know and we need that we need to hear it from you because other people hide stuff which is not good for us or are animals bless you bless all of your animals and bless all your staff. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re remarkably amazing. Thank you❤❤❤❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Sending Loving Thoughts and Prayers to Lee, his team, and all his fur babies - please take care and know your viewers love and care about the Asher House and all the animals.
You’re a sensitive, compassionate, mature man!! Don’t doubt urself! Ur strong/mature. Not everyone understands a person like u! The fact that u open up/share ur feelings shows the depth of ur character! Sending love/strength to you!!❤
We are a community - family - who share the common bond of loving animals. If you can’t share your feelings with family - then who??? Keep the faith! Carry the torch!! 💕💕🙏🏽🙏🏽
I cannot imagine how stressful this is for you and the sanctuary... you are doing the right thing by communicating what you're going thru - we are here to support and help. Thank you for doing what some many of us want to (rescuing many) - we're here to support because we do it too. 🐾🐶💕💖
I have been praying every day for the Lord to heal the Asher Sanctuary! Thank you for your complete vulnerability, and transparency. God Bless you all 🙏❤
Lee we love you❤❤❤ never apologize for updating us!!! Those of us who understand you never felt you jumped the gun and caused panic. Please ignore the naysayers. Your fur babies are so very blessed to have you and your staff❤❤❤ never forget that❤❤❤
I applaud your honesty in the midst of the panic, concern and heartbreak of seeing your dogs get sick and Roo passing. I find your sharing to be beneficial. Be strong Lee and your staff.
Lee, don’t Ever let the haters put you down! You’re doing the right thing by updating the animal lovers’ community! I really wish there were more humans like you! 👍👏👌🙏
Never apologize for giving updates. We all care about your animals and their well-being. Thank you for keeping us all informed. 🐾❤🐾❤ Regarding health, always err on the side of caution.
We love you all so much. The puppies and the team of heroes including doctors and volunteers. Embrace the strength of that love. We are with you and all beautiful people who care for Mother Nature’s little miracles. ❤️✨🦋
My husband and I have been rescuers for over 20 years. I’ve been keeping up with Asher House for a long time and want to let you know I appreciate your honesty in what goes on in “real” life. Thank you for the early warning about the current situation. We have 3 to 4 dogs living with us at all times and I am glad to know what may be on the horizon to watch for. I appreciate your love for God’s creatures and the amazing way you live that out, not just in words. Take good care of yourself. You are important.
I ask what would these so called haters do if it was there pets going through this? Would they just sit on the information, what was happening to their pets or would they tell everyone they could about it?! You were beyond scared, just like any normal person would be going through what you were and still are going through. If it caused a little bit of a panic it sounds like it should have. If it hit as hard and fast as it did people needed to know what to look for! And at the first sign of anything different about how their pet was acting get them to the dr! We are all guilty of having a pet that maybe is acting a little off and we see how it goes for a a few hours or until the next day. Heck I do that with myself. It all depends on how they/we are acting, what the symptoms are. I would think you putting out the info may have saved lives. People wouldn't think oh they have a cough or an off day eating and it will pass. If not eating was a symptom we would never know with ours. He is the most unmotivated animal when it comes to food. He goes days without food by his own choice. We have taken him to the vet, changed foods, we tried EVERYTHING. So we would never know if that was a sign. Your a sensitive caring guy. I know its hard but just ignore as much as you can the people who obviously have no life other than to come down on others for everything. I take things to heart and it bothers me when people say negative things to and about me. I dealt with it my whole life. People just always seem to think they can say whatever they want to me and about me and I should just take it. But God forbid I return that favor. I think the biggest thing is to stop apologizing it gives them the satisfaction of knowing they got to you! If they know they got to you and you feel bad thats the jolly they are needing! Keep up the good work you are doing and know most people the people that truly matter love you and what you are doing!!❤❤❤
It is totally amazing that the Oregon state vet is working with you. That is totally cool!! I always appreciate it when you let me know things that are happening!! I'm also so happy that the pups are doing getting better and pushing forward. Sending all my positive thoughts and love always!!❤️🥰❤️🥰
So good to see Tommy Tom Toms ❤ Lee, this was an extremely unusual situation and a crisis, there are no guidebooks to such things, and we are a part of your support system so of course you needed to tell us!!! So sorry about precious Roo 💔 We have Shelby, Cece, Lily and ALL OF YOU in our prayers. Please give the dogs pats and kisses for us, we love you all and are thankful we could help!!!
We appreciate you and your update. Please disregard those who are and have been critical of your “approach”. That’s all about THEM and not about you. When one follows their heart and is simultaneously transparent, (as you are) only do good, meaningful things happen. Take good, good care as you care for the animals! Best from Idaho. k and J
Please don't be nervous about any of it. As we all know, animals are actually angels visiting the earth to remind us of our higher good and presenting models of genuine goodness that we might follow. And we are, well, we are only human.
With all the dishonesty, secrets, and corruption that we are all dealing with at this time in history. There is nothing more appreciated, then the truth and transparency of a good honest, loving man. Kudos to you Lee for keeping us in the loop helping us to keep our furbabies safe, happy and healthy. God bless you, the team, the pack, and all the vets that are working so hard together to find a resolution to the situation in all honesty. If I was in your situation, I would do the exact same thing and I would’ve made the exact same video that you did. I don’t think it was irresponsible. I think you were responding to the situation as it was unfolding, and there is no shame or wrongdoing in that at all❤️
As a volunteer in fostering with rescues, I can't thank you enough for the information regarding this situation. We have 3 docs and just took in 3 foster dogs, and have 7 foster cats right now. These updates are critical
Wonderful that your puppies are continuing to improve and that the state vet is now involved. Your original post was you being a loving doggie dad dealing with a major, instant crisis and no apologies should be needed. You are awesome, Lee!
Wow, very well said. The people who are mad are self centered and weak! I'm so glad you put it out there. If we don't warn each other when something is wrong then how could we ever solve Anything! God bless you, the vets and all that were truly concerned for you and the dogs! So happy to hear your updates! 🐥🐱🌅
There is no need to apologize. Roo was loved and thanks to you and your team had a beautiful life before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you for the update and to help make all of us aware of the possibilities, even all the way from Oregon to Florida. Since we don't know the initial source, it's good to know what to watch for. No matter where we are. You are a blessing.
Transparency is Your gift in this community Lee, this is why we give without hesitation and trust that it is for the good of these dogs, that we get to know about and feel a connection to. Love is contagious especially when it comes from the soul, we feel it! ✌️💗
You are loved!! Your dream is loved, your whole life is loved!!! Don't you ever forget that!! Keep doing what I can't...giving your unconditional love to these animals. I pray for the long existence of the heaven you provide!!! God bless you and keep you healthy and happy!!! Love and Prayers from little me!❤❤
Lee, advocates for his dogs and all animals: he is articulate, genuine, and authentic. We love him and his mission. THANK YOU SO MUCH LEE! ❤🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾

Just wanted to let you know. I could give more examples,but wanted to keep this short.
Lost part of my post. I was asking if you had ever heard of essiac and suggesting that it might help with your dog with cancer. Check it out online.
Some people just suck
Your quick action probably saved most of your pack. You talk to us to help you process. Your processing and sharing helps us. Your audience loves dogs and we love you. We are praying for you. Hang in there.
The fact is that you could choose to have a media blackout. Instead, you keep your followers and those who click on your videos in the loop regarding what is going on. You inform, educate, update, and send love, even when it is hard. We are blessed that you're the voice and the strength for those that can't speak for themselves. Thank you Lee. Keep up the good work, and I pray you can grab a moment here and there for yourself.
Yes
Bless you, Lee, for giving us all a heads up! One of our dogs was puny yesterday..way off. Thankfully our Vet was able to see us right away. Already had a biopsy waiting for results. While this is not related, we learn that the acting swiftly, can make all the difference in the world. Lee, you are the most responsible guy on the planet! Block out the negative ninny types! They are out there in all walks of life.. they don’t know what they are talking about! You did good… 🙏 ❤️ 🕊️
I hope your dog is ok❤️
🙏🏻 for your dog.
AMEN
I hope your dog recovers well❤
Just ignore the haters. Your doing the right thing
I can confirm, as a never allergic person, that this year is the worst! Bless you all at The Asher House and all who support you!
Same here. I’m almost 62, never had a problem before.
I have been sick 5 times. Really bad and that happened in 6 months. I dont know why or how. Doctor doesnt have any answer. My lungs were really painful when i was breathing.
Ditto here... 67 retired live in Florida an have never had a allergy issue. Bought more Benadryl and tissue this year, then, I ever needed growing up in Wisconsin.
same here....@@hocuspocus4577
We have a massively “vaccinated” population. That is showing up in many ways
Shame on the ones that got UPSET......REALLY!!!!! Thank you, LEE, for letting US know what is going on. Being a dog owner of 2 fur babies, I WANTED and NEEDED to know❤
You shouldn’t have to apologize for being transparent and informing people of something that we as animal owners should be aware of that could possibly affect our own pets. I appreciate all that you do.
I just can't imagine anyone being upset with you for being honest and vulnerable about what was happening at Asher House.Your updates were/are important to us. Lee you are an extraordinary human being. ✨️💖✨️
Don’t apologize to anyone for updating. We appreciate you and all you do. Give Shelby hugs for us.
You are updating us and keeping us informed on behalf of all dogs and their owners. It is informative and important. It can save a life. And I believe that by you being open and transparent and working with professionals in reference to this disease, you will make yet another important and profound positive impact on the health and well-being of dogs all around the world 🌎 ❤ 🐕 we are thankful for you❤❤
we are truly thankful. through watching your videos, I am sure I am not alone in saying I've come to love these different personalities. I (we) want them all to be ok!
You haven't done anything irresponsible. You're wonderfully!
Don’t apologize for your concern and heartfelt reaction to this unknown canine problem! Thank you for giving information to all us dog lovers and all of us who are lovingly “owned” by a dog. Knowledge is power!
Lee you did EVERYTHING RIGHT! You brought attention to all pet owners to notice subtle signs with their own dogs. You can’t please everyone all the time and there will always be those who will come out being negative but THIS community SUPPORTS you!!!
❤👍🏻❤️
There's no need to apologise, champ. You give a piece of yourself to each animal you help. We all see and feel it. You just keep being you, that's why we all love you, mate, sending love from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺.
Please ignore the haters. The majority of Asher house lovers are behind you 100%. This kind of stress is debilitating. Give yourself positive credit. Your mission of loving and caring for the dogs that live on the fringes is admirable. Let’s all give Lee ❤
❤
I can't imagine you having haters! I love you, your dogs, your wisdom, your spirit. You are an angel for the babies that come to you! Keep doing what your doing and educating the animal lovers in the world. May God bless you and all you do in life!
Thank you for being transparent with your viewers, we all appreciate your honesty 🙏🏻❤️🇨🇦

Lee, first off, deepest condolences about Roo passing. 💔😢 My husband and I just lost our 15 yr old fur kid this week so our hearts go out to you about Roo. And please know that most of your devoted supporters understood why you reported the outbreak and stressful situation. We know you would never stir up things on purpose to cause any trouble. You and your rescue org do such amazing and life saving work! T.A.H. is a real blessing. Hope things get back to normal soon and ignore the negativity. ❤️🙏💪
Sorry you lost your furbaby. Hugs
U went above & beyond 4 Roo. Well done
so sorry for your loss
So sorry for your loss.
So very sorry for your loss. C❤❤😢❤😂
Lee, you do not ever need to apologize. Those that know who you are, and know your passion and love for animals understand you’re there to help and educate. What they take out of it and interpret is their doing. You’re wonderful, and we are grateful for your upfront, honest communication, as well as keeping us in the loop with your babies. Keep being you, and doing the amazing things you are. I wish you, all the babies, your staff, and the entire sanctuary well, and speedy recovery. ❤🐶💙🫶🏻
Transparency is being responsible and it helps educate masses of dog parents/guardians. We love and appreciate you, Lee, and your cause. Thank you to everyone whose donations and prayers helped save these precious dogs. Rest in Heaven to the dogs that crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Gone but not forgotten. 💗🙏💗
Lee you are a beautiful and honest animal lover your response shows how you feel and love every single animal you touched. I know you must be tired and worried we will walk every step of this problems with you. God bless all the way from South Africa ❤❤
@@mandabrink4713 ♥♥
I am glad that Roo got to know your kindness and a lovely life. Roo had the choice to stay home and not go on pack walks but she came on walks and was living her best life. I am sorry that you and yours had to suffer her loss, but I am glad she got to be with you through it all. I am looking forward to hearing Lily while you are filming again. Thank you for the updates. Love to you all.
“I am glad that Roo got to your kindness and a short lovely life. You are right Roo had the choice home not go on pack walks but she came on walk and was living her best life” shortly lived. I think you mean I am sorry you and your team had to suffer her loss.
No need to apologize, I would’ve panicked if I were in your shoes looking for help from everyone! So glad to hear you’ve got such a supportive and wonderful audience. The Oregon state veterinarian is a great resource, so happy to hear they are helping.
You are a genuine and loving hero to those dogs, we need more people like you!!❤️❤️
Dear Lee, you have done a phenomenal job at both handling a scary situation with no clear answers, as well as relaying to the public ongoing updates! You always do what's in the best interests of your pack, and with the generous help of your Vet and the Oregon State Vet in regards to care and finding solutions, you and the pups will surely see the other side of this! Until that day of total relief comes, sincere and continued prayers for the pack, as well as for sweet Lady's lung biopsy to come back negative and for her and the other pups to receive a clean bill of health!
Thanks for your nice comment - I agree with you. GOD BLESS THE ASHER HOUSE AND ALL THE OTHER DOGS THAT ARE SICK AND RECOVERING FROM THIS TERRIBLE ILLNESS.
Beautifully said, Mark!
And Lee uses his platform 4 good❤
Good morning Lee! You need to stop apologizing for this, you are human being with heart, feelings and Love for animals. The Only two kind of people who would be upset about it is: A) People who hate animals and B) People who own animals, do not care about them and think they are replaceable. We as animal loving community do not care about their opinions. Thank you for all you do! Sending love from Washington State.🥰
Pure and open to love. I didn't think a man like Lee existed. Thanks for being you.
He did exactly the right thing. He's an amazing human being.
@@angelanicholson951I contacted a psychic about this situation last night. She said Lee is Avery old soul. And was a monk in a previous life ! That makes sense. All the Introspection. Plus his love for all the animals. ! We are very fortunate to have such an old soul in this position. Not just taking in all the dogs and animals. But I think Lee is going to be a , Beacon, for Animal Welfare. His journey has only just started. We all love him so much.
You are the best advocate for animals yours and others. The animals at your sanctuary are blessed to be with you and your staff. Each and every creature has the lord in their life. They will reach the Heavenly sanctuary.
A strange infection, affecting an entire region is definitely information others need.
Lee you can not please the world. Those that Love the Asher House know you , you spoke from your heart, I almost lost my mind when my dog of 14 years got sick, The vet was really to put me out of her office, I loved my dog in the deepest part of my soul . Those who know you love you. let it go Lee !!! No need to apologize for your love for the pack !! WE Get It !!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lee....never, ever apologize for being you. My sincere condolences to you and your team for the loss of Roo. She was loved so much and she was so happy before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you for being honest and informing us all about this. Please keep us updated. Glad to hear Lily and Cece are better. Continued prayers for Lady and Shelby. And Lee....you look so exhausted. I know you and your team must be wore out. Please try and rest when you can. ❤️🙏🐶
I don't really understand why anyone would be upset with you for informing us of what is going on. I truly appreciated it and thank you for everything. ❤
Lee, Don't ever apologize for sharing. We all Love you and support what you do. We need updates as much as you need them. Praying for all at the sanctuary. Lee, All furbabies and Staff. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤love to all helping!!!
Good morning, Lee! Thank you so much for keeping us all updated. Sending you and the rest of the crew and dogs a huge, huge hug.
Don't worry we Love you and your family and fur babies always!!!!!!🐶🐑🦌🐏🐷🐩🐈🐕🐎🐰🕊😇🇺🇸👵🇺🇸
Amen 🙏🏻
Ahhhhh hugs xx
Please keep praying for Lee and his family and fur babies too always!!!!🕊😇🇺🇸👵🇮🇱
Hey Lee, I am so relieved that things are going better for Asher House and you! Seems Judgement comes so easily to the ignorant & hateful. You have to forgive yourself for a frightened response! The public that over reacted cannot blame you for their own panic. You are a sweet & loyal animal lover rescue leader, not a hostage negotiator.❣Blessings for continued Healing. ❤🩹🤟
That's it! Well said. Lee showed reasonable fear & used the adrenaline to act. If we panic, that's on us
@@marshawalker5273I never thought Lee was panicking. Just very anxious, and concerned. I think his response was proportionate, and bang on.
Thank you for the update and showing Tommy and some of the other dogs , so we know they're o.k. I appreciate all you do and the amount of love you have for every animal you give a safe home. Sending love and healing to all of you.
The more I'm listening to Lee about the symptoms, the more I'm convinced it's some sort of Dog COVID,. He just mentioned Shelby. Having some of his other organs affected, Hello. Exactly what happened to some of the very early COVID patients in ICU,s. Maybe the bloomin virus has jumped species ! And Lee looks exhausted, When all this is over, I pray he can take a long rest. ❤❤
As a medical professional I can tell you this is a lot how Covid started. We didn’t know how to treat it at first and it was tough in the beginning. This information is so helpful because it’s all about sharing your experience! It will help vets solve this because this gives them data. It’s extremely traumatic to be in your situation so ignore the negative comments they don’t get it
I was thinking covid cause there is covid killing thousands of cats
Lee: I am truly proud of you. Please again no need to apologize. Continued strength to you and the sanctuary. Thank you for the updates. 🙏🐶❤️
❤
I consulted with Oregon State with a dog I had years ago (from Florida!). I'm so glad they're working with you. Great group of folks there! Appreciate all the HONEST updates, Lee. I'm so happy to hear Tommy, Cece, Lilly, and others are better and keeping my thoughts trained to Lady and Shelby. Rest in peace, Roo...we'll keep the kibble out for you!
Thanks for telling us I live in aust so keep going
Never apologize Lee. You are doing the right thing by keeping us informed. Thank you.❤️😥🐕
Lee, don't apologise for caring, your love and compassion for your animal babies shines, your an amazing person and so is your team, bless you all, sending love and a quick recovery for all fur babies
Oh Lee. Thank You. We Will get through. Talk shortly.
Ignore the trolls and haters. Real animal people and pet parents are eternally grateful for your kindness and willingness to share what’s happening.
Lee, your people who are really behind you, your community, the millions that follow, you adore you. You are amazing. You are the most honest, genuine, beautiful, heart, soul, and spirit. Know that I say 99.9% of us appreciate your honesty more than you’ll ever know and we need that we need to hear it from you because other people hide stuff which is not good for us or are animals bless you bless all of your animals and bless all your staff. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re remarkably amazing. Thank you❤❤❤❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
Sending Loving Thoughts and Prayers to Lee, his team, and all his fur babies - please take care and know your viewers love and care about the Asher House and all the animals.
You’re a sensitive, compassionate, mature man!! Don’t doubt urself! Ur strong/mature. Not everyone understands a person like u! The fact that u open up/share ur feelings shows the depth of ur character! Sending love/strength to you!!❤
AMEN
We are a community - family - who share the common bond of loving animals. If you can’t share your feelings with family - then who??? Keep the faith! Carry the torch!! 💕💕🙏🏽🙏🏽
I cannot imagine how stressful this is for you and the sanctuary... you are doing the right thing by communicating what you're going thru - we are here to support and help. Thank you for doing what some many of us want to (rescuing many) - we're here to support because we do it too. 🐾🐶💕💖
Let your beautifulness and love for animals and humans…. Shine ❤️☀️❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾 your are LOVED and GOD sees your GREAT DEEDS 🙏☮️❤️
I have been praying every day for the Lord to heal the Asher Sanctuary! Thank you for your complete vulnerability, and transparency. God Bless you all 🙏❤
Lee we love you❤❤❤ never apologize for updating us!!! Those of us who understand you never felt you jumped the gun and caused panic. Please ignore the naysayers. Your fur babies are so very blessed to have you and your staff❤❤❤ never forget that❤❤❤
No panic here. We just need to do our best under any given circumstance. ❤ thank you Lee. ❤
Thank u. God bless you for what you are doing there with Asher House.
I applaud your honesty in the midst of the panic, concern and heartbreak of seeing your dogs get sick and Roo passing. I find your sharing to be beneficial. Be strong Lee and your staff.
I’m so glad you have the big guys standing with you. This quick pneumonia is scary for sure.
Lee, don’t Ever let the haters put you down! You’re doing the right thing by updating the animal lovers’ community! I really wish there were more humans like you! 👍👏👌🙏
Never apologize for giving updates. We all care about your animals and their well-being. Thank you for keeping us all informed. 🐾❤🐾❤
Regarding health, always err on the side of caution.
Prayers for you n your pack.🙏❤
We love you all so much. The puppies and the team of heroes including doctors and volunteers. Embrace the strength of that love. We are with you and all beautiful people who care for Mother Nature’s little miracles. ❤️✨🦋
Never apologize. Your struggles are ours too. Your joys are ours as well ...❤❤❤
My husband and I have been rescuers for over 20 years. I’ve been keeping up with Asher House for a long time and want to let you know I appreciate your honesty in what goes on in “real” life. Thank you for the early warning about the current situation. We have 3 to 4 dogs living with us at all times and I am glad to know what may be on the horizon to watch for. I appreciate your love for God’s creatures and the amazing way you live that out, not just in words. Take good care of yourself. You are important.
I ask what would these so called haters do if it was there pets going through this? Would they just sit on the information, what was happening to their pets or would they tell everyone they could about it?!
You were beyond scared, just like any normal person would be going through what you were and still are going through. If it caused a little bit of a panic it sounds like it should have. If it hit as hard and fast as it did people needed to know what to look for! And at the first sign of anything different about how their pet was acting get them to the dr! We are all guilty of having a pet that maybe is acting a little off and we see how it goes for a a few hours or until the next day. Heck I do that with myself. It all depends on how they/we are acting, what the symptoms are. I would think you putting out the info may have saved lives. People wouldn't think oh they have a cough or an off day eating and it will pass. If not eating was a symptom we would never know with ours. He is the most unmotivated animal when it comes to food. He goes days without food by his own choice. We have taken him to the vet, changed foods, we tried EVERYTHING. So we would never know if that was a sign.
Your a sensitive caring guy. I know its hard but just ignore as much as you can the people who obviously have no life other than to come down on others for everything. I take things to heart and it bothers me when people say negative things to and about me. I dealt with it my whole life. People just always seem to think they can say whatever they want to me and about me and I should just take it. But God forbid I return that favor. I think the biggest thing is to stop apologizing it gives them the satisfaction of knowing they got to you! If they know they got to you and you feel bad thats the jolly they are needing!
Keep up the good work you are doing and know most people the people that truly matter love you and what you are doing!!❤❤❤
It is totally amazing that the Oregon state vet is working with you. That is totally cool!! I always appreciate it when you let me know things that are happening!! I'm also so happy that the pups are doing getting better and pushing forward. Sending all my positive thoughts and love always!!❤️🥰❤️🥰
Asher House and Lee, thank you so much.
So good to see Tommy Tom Toms ❤ Lee, this was an extremely unusual situation and a crisis, there are no guidebooks to such things, and we are a part of your support system so of course you needed to tell us!!! So sorry about precious Roo 💔 We have Shelby, Cece, Lily and ALL OF YOU in our prayers. Please give the dogs pats and kisses for us, we love you all and are thankful we could help!!!
You and
You and your dogs are loved...
Thank you for all you and the Asher House Team do for the animals! You're all Heroes in my book! Information is power! 👍❤️😁🇨🇦🙋♀️
You have nothing to apologize for. You are a human being who gave a human response.
We appreciate you and your update. Please disregard those who are and have been critical of your “approach”. That’s all about THEM and not about you. When one follows their heart and is simultaneously transparent, (as you are) only do good, meaningful things happen. Take good, good care as you care for the animals! Best from Idaho. k and J
Please don't be nervous about any of it. As we all know, animals are actually angels visiting the earth to remind us of our higher good and presenting models of genuine goodness that we might follow. And we are, well, we are only human.
Never apologize for showing your genuine love, concern and dedication to your guys and girls❤
With all the dishonesty, secrets, and corruption that we are all dealing with at this time in history. There is nothing more appreciated, then the truth and transparency of a good honest, loving man. Kudos to you Lee for keeping us in the loop helping us to keep our furbabies safe, happy and healthy. God bless you, the team, the pack, and all the vets that are working so hard together to find a resolution to the situation in all honesty. If I was in your situation, I would do the exact same thing and I would’ve made the exact same video that you did. I don’t think it was irresponsible. I think you were responding to the situation as it was unfolding, and there is no shame or wrongdoing in that at all❤️
As a volunteer in fostering with rescues, I can't thank you enough for the information regarding this situation. We have 3 docs and just took in 3 foster dogs, and have 7 foster cats right now. These updates are critical
Wonderful that your puppies are continuing to improve and that the state vet is now involved.
Your original post was you being a loving doggie dad dealing with a major, instant crisis and no apologies should be needed. You are awesome, Lee!
Wow, very well said. The people who are mad are self centered and weak! I'm so glad you put it out there. If we don't warn each other when something is wrong then how could we ever solve Anything! God bless you, the vets and all that were truly concerned for you and the dogs! So happy to hear your updates! 🐥🐱🌅
we love you Asher and Pack
We are so GRATEFUL for you and everything you do! Thank you for SHARING. Don’t let the negative Nellie’s get you down. TX supports you!
That’s right you did what was right for these fur babies!
Yes! So grateful this situation is turning around for the better!❤
I as a dog owner am immensely grateful for all your information. I await results 🙏
There is no need to apologize. Roo was loved and thanks to you and your team had a beautiful life before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you for the update and to help make all of us aware of the possibilities, even all the way from Oregon to Florida. Since we don't know the initial source, it's good to know what to watch for. No matter where we are. You are a blessing.
Transparency is Your gift in this community Lee, this is why we give without hesitation and trust that it is for the good of these dogs, that we get to know about and feel a connection to. Love is contagious especially when it comes from the soul, we feel it! ✌️💗
You are loved!! Your dream is loved, your whole life is loved!!!
Don't you ever forget that!! Keep doing what I can't...giving your unconditional love to these animals. I pray for the long existence of the heaven you provide!!! God bless you and keep you healthy and happy!!! Love and Prayers from little me!❤❤
If anyone would make spot on decisions it would be you Lee! You and your furbabies are in my prayers!❤🙏
Never apologise for the updates we all care about the well being of all the animals and off course we all love and care about you ❤️
Please don't let ANYONE deter you from your mission and what you believe is right. I appreciate your information and updates.
Lee, advocates for his dogs and all animals: he is articulate, genuine, and authentic. We love him and his mission.
THANK YOU SO MUCH LEE!
❤🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾
Yes indeedy 💞💕❤️💛💖
Whole heartedly agree💕
Yeah for sure! 😂
you absolutely did the right thing. And you sense of responsibility to chase down the answer - FOR ALL of us-- Thank you!
You do not need to apologize for caring so much about the dogs and keeping everyone updated.
