  • The most incredible transformation I've ever seen. All she needed was a chance. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't witness it with my own eyes.

    Finding herself in a home full of happy & friendly dogs, who trust the big human, must have made a huge difference to her. She saw how they were around Lee & decided he was safe

      We have a rescue, Aussie/BC mix, who came out of a hoarding situation @ 5 years old. She was fearful & shut-down like this also, according to her foster. The foster had 3 dogs + also a doggy daycare. Yes, the other dogs helped this hoarder girl become comfortable, learn to be a real dog, and start to trust the foster. The other dogs truly do help the fearful dogs to learn & trust more. (Our little rescue is pretty much the boss of the home now, and enjoys her status, entirely!)

    Years ago, after surviving a trauma, I was basically a “shut down lady who had given up on life”. After a year of wallowing in grief I started working with refugees overseas, and when I returned to the states, I started fostering as I had a lifetime of experience of dogs.
    Volunteering in foster showed me that animals that have been neglected or abused can come back, and therefore I can. It wasn’t that I/we healed the dogs… It was that the dogs healed me!❤ 🐾

So, Lady was able to "talk" to all the other dogs, who couldn't "say" enough nice things about you, Lee, which made her conclude that you are worth knowing as a trustworthy human.

    What she witnessed was a pack of happy dogs; dogs who had no fear, and that fact caused her to not fear. At a shelter fear is in the air. She witnessed ogs enjoying their life to the fullest, and then she witnessed who their pack leader was and knew she too could trust him 100%. She looked so happy romping around the dogs. What a glorious thing to witness. I would have loved to be in the room with the shelter workers when they watched the video.

      That's an insightful comment - "at a shelter, fear is in the air'. It explains a lot about why dogs are often reactive when they first come out after all the panic, anxiety, and lonely barking and seeing some dogs get taken out while others remain. I am so happy i got a rescue dog and gave him time to find calmness outside and around other dogs altho he has always been calm in the home and slept on my bed since the first night.😍🥰

She also wrote a book about Takaya, after following his life for many years. Her name is Cheryl Alexander...you can Google it, just by typing in Takaya.... it was a very lovely emotional documentary shown on one of our UK TV channels a few years back.

I adopted her, held her paw and sang to her the whole drive home and now we're inseparable. I can relate to Lady so much, and I KNOW she's exactly where she needs to be. You're an angel, Lee.

      I have seen so many videos. It seems to me like when there are packs of dogs at a sanctuary, a dog like Lady is happy and relaxed right away. We see it when there are 2 other dogs but every time when there is a pack. I wonder if the dog thinks well this is a good guy because he likes dogs and these dogs are happy so I can be happy too. My other thought is that it goes deeper than that. So I wonder if dogs have some language amongst themselves where they tell this dog she will be ok and this is a good guy?

      I couldn't agree more Linda so well put, breaks my heart for all the overlooked dogs at shelters that don't interact how humans want them to do they get over looked..or worse put to sleep as "un saveable " that decision is with God and God only. Our dog was traumatised when we rescued her. It took time and kindness..nothing more. No big quick fix just trust. She is now the happiest goofiest girl who we adore ❤

      @@makeyourlifebeautiful1652 I agree too. I fostered an 18 month old boxer cross and he was shut down when he arrived. He was so overwhelmed he hid for two days. I just talked to him gently and left food for him, and left the back door open so he could go potty when he thought I wasn't about. A few days later he came out and played with my resident dog and she was so gentle with him. He came and put his head on my lap and accepted head scratches, then I was able to take him out on a lead to the field behind my house. I think we did ten walkies that day, he loved it. He's now been here 6 years and I adopted him, it was obvious he loved me and I couldn't bear the thought of tearing him away from the place he was used to. He's now so chilled and friendly. He loves people and just wants to be everyone's friend. He's hyper focussed on me, and always has to know where I am. Even if there are other people in the house giving him fuss as soon as I get up he has to follow me. He's awesome.

    That poor sweet angel was clearly seriously abused by someone. It’s heartbreaking to see her fear and obvious signs of trauma. It was so wonderful to see that once you gave her control of her environment, she was then willing to come out of her safe space and slowly explore. Lee, I am constantly amazed with how in tune you are with what each dog needs to feel safe and loved. This understanding is especially true for dogs like Lady, who have been harmed and traumatized in her life BL (before Lee), and she can now learn what it is to be a beloved member of the Asher family AL (after Lee). ❤😊❤

    My first rescue dog was very much like that, she was terrified of everything, everyone and also very young, just like Lady. I was drawn to her, I couldn't explain it, but I felt like she was meant to be my dog. A couple weeks in, she had not changed much and I began to wonder if maybe I had been wrong and my home wasn't the right place for her. I will never forget the day I was trying to play fetch with her, she was scared and coward away. I stopped and went to work on my garden, really down because I didn't know how to help her. A few minutes later, I looked down and she had brought the ball back to me and left it next to me. You wanna play girl?! She seemed excited for the first time, so I tossed the ball across the yard, she chased it and brought it back to me. From that moment on she was a totally different dog, my protector and my constant companion for many long years, and the best dog I ever had :)

    And she didn't.
    I always say to the new doggies I see you get, "you have the best daddy, the best family now. It's gonna be ok."
