As someone who owns two dogs, and have 3-4 dogs in my house I'm training this woman is a absolute narcissist who believes she's a hero for rescuing which she rescued for completely selfish reason, she wanted to brag about rescuing and have a cuddle buddy when it's convenient, she's the type who doesn't clean a litter box or do any crap for their pet, she 100% forgets to feed them and walk them. I'm a dog trainer and I would call animal control immediately after being around her for 5 minutes
I feel bad for Jessie. Not only does she nag him constantly, she said she doesnt believe in training the dogs, and she constantly hates on him for trying to help, but gets angry when he doesn't. She is the most ungrateful person I've seen in a while. Oh and her whiny voice is annoying as heck.
Jesse is dysfunctional for being with her, and maybe she wasn’t lying when she told Victoria he’s been an absent partner, even before the dogs. The dogs feel the void.
The girl's got a saviour complex. She's more interested in being a saviour than she is acting in the interests of either her husband or the dogs she thinks she's "saving"
Just so everyone knows- Jesse remarried, had a beautiful daughter, kept Blaze and raised him for a wonderful 17 years until he passed of old age. Jesse is a fire fighter and you can tell from his social media that he cares deeply for animals and his family. I’m happy that he has the happiness and peace that he deserves after such a stressful beginning to love and a family.
Thanks. I feel much better knowing this. He looks like a such a good man. Putting up with things he didn’t have to. Plus her not caring about him and the stress and hearing damage it was doing to him. I couldn’t last 5 minutes with that noise.
Thank you so much. Was so disturbed at the idea of them having children some day. That poor guy would have terrible fights for visitation. She would also most likely have taken him to the cleaners. I feel much better knowing this.
So just to be clear. She does not work, she has a nice back garden and still decided to lock them up all day, saying she saved them.... Yep that makes sense..👍
But. . . .but. . . she saved them into those barren cages! Weird that Victoria didn't say anything about that. I was expecting her to introduce all sorts of puzzle toys and agility stuff.
My guess is the reason this loony had them in crates is not because she wanted to lock them but that she literally claimed she didn’t “believe in training” that it was “cruel” to not let them “be dogs”. Well it’s cruel to not train them. Because I think she had to crate them due to dog fights making things unsafe. Combine with her refusal to actually train them.
she needs a bunny, to put in a cage and hand feed. That was the solution to this episode. *EDIT: ACTUALLY SHE NEEDS TO GO TO A PSYCH WARD FOR EVALUATION. LEAVE THE BUNNIES IN PEACE*
@@flipnshifty Funny thing, bunnies doesn't live good lives in cages, they need to roam free like dogs and cats. Guinea pigs however? perfect solution to what you're presenting!
@@flipnshiftyshe doesn't need ANY animal. A house plant or a fluffy teddy bear is plenty responsibility for her. And i agree a bunny is nót supposed to live in a sad little cage
@@imle9279not to be that guy, but Guinea pigs also need quite a bit of space! Two Guinea pigs (minimum number) require at the very, *very* least, 0,7m², or 7,5ft² of floor space. A small plant would, as a previous commenter suggested, be more appropriate before she moves on to other organisms.
Fr tho like the kennels at the pound/humane societies/rescues are far bigger than those crates. When I crated my dog (for 2.5 years until we trusted her alone in the house) we literally only crated her if no one was home and it was too hot or too cold for her to be in our huge fenced in and locked backyard
“He’s never around,” says Joanne. I wouldn’t be there either. She’s self-centered, narcissistic, and has the emotional intelligence of an 11 year old. That marriage is NOT going to last. There’s much more going on than dog issues.
he's never around BECAUSE of her and her many failures with these dogs. I mean, she doesn't believe in training?? She keeps them crated and ignores the very real damage their barking causes, to her, to them, and to Jesse. She ignores the fighting and the bites from Max, and the risks involved in having a dog with a bite history. She ignores Jesse's needs and all of his concerns. She prioritizes her care for the dogs (not the dogs themselves, just her need to be needed) over her HUSBAND. I would never be home, either!
Yes being a volunteer in taking care of dogs doesnt mean you already knows everything coz understanding each dog personality means you must experience rearing one by yourself first 😶 researching and learning about them is the key on understanding not assuming whats in your head 🙄 thinking she knows everything 😢
True he has lots of patience coz if im that guy im gonna leave immediately coz im an introvert and im easily stress with loud sounds for soo long. This woman feels shes rescuing dogs but shes not doing any good either with the dogs coz shes the one who has the big problem in their house She doesnt listen to her husband and her dogs 😢
I don’t believe he’s never there because in other episodes of Victoria helping families u can tell when someone not helping but Jesse is always there and willing to walk and feed the dogs even with what they did to his hearing so I just believe it’s her manipulating him it makes me sick but I’m glad Victoria is helping families like this 💜😊
If it makes you guys feel better the husband couldn’t handle her either. He took Blaze (not sure bout the others sorry) and remarried, he’s doing real well according to his social media.
They literally replicated the pound in her own household and tried to act like this was a better living situation for them than the alternative OF the pound.. She's delusional

She has literally made those sick with her “training is cruel” philosophy. I cannot say how angry I am. How can she be so selfish? She WANTS those dogs to suffer so she can be the Florence Nightingale. This is all about her. She thinks her home is a good loving home? It’s one of the cruelst I have ever seen.
True order and discipline is needed in everything to have a better and unstressful life 😢 i almost not finished these episodes 😂😂 coz im a bit annoyed in her principle regarding dog training 😅
This one was stressful to watch. She didn't save the dogs if that's the environment she was keeping them in. She was being selfish and wanting her needs met but not acting to ensure the dogs' wellbeing. Properly socialized and trained dogs are much happier. This was pure stressful chaos. She created a stressful shelter environment in her house just minus the euthanasia. I really hope she took Victoria's teachings seriously and followed through even after the update.

Victoria is as much of a therapist/counselor as she is a dog trainer. I always wonder if she ever took any classes or something, or if it’s just learned over years of working with people. 😂 she really is an amazing person and is great at training people.
I have NEVER seen a more ridiculous, neglectful, overprotective sad excuse for a dog owner. I truly hope that she has changed her ways after this and Jesse deserves better. She can enjoy her life with these dogs alone, but she better learn to take care of them properly.
So, this Joanne rescues these dogs from kennels and their most likely troubled pasts _just_ to put them in kennels _again_ and _keep them_ in their troubled mindsets indefinitely? The lights are on, but it doesn’t seem like anyone's home.
She wants to not be able that poor dog without her . Disable the dog. She is an animal abuser. I really hope she can never be able to have kids. She is dangerous. She would be one of those moms who keep hurting her kids and taking them to hospital, to fulfill her sick “saviour complex”. She really scares me
Omg complaining about pulling at the collar yet keep your dogs caged in a tiny cage all day??? Who does that. 'How would she feel whole day put in a tiny cage'
@@rogue7723 but do you remember why the dogs pull so much! Because Joanne won't train them because it's "cruel". Also she pulls on they're collars too, granted not as hard as Jesse, but she nags him for every little pull sooo...
It's a not often when you actually get a situation of it's me or the dog. But this intervention was desperately needed. Thank you, Victoria for intervening in a family who clearly had no idea what they were doing. I truly believe that without her husband stopping her, she would have easily become a pet hoarder. She has way too much sympathy for the dogs and she's babying them to the extent that she's willing to let go of her marriage for them. I've never seen someone who desperately needs to see a psychologist before on this show. I don't know if her maternal instincts are in overdrive or she's using the dogs as a substitute for something she is unable to have. But she 100% needs an evaluation and consulting.
I agree completely! Got an update. Jesse and Joanne did not stay together much longer after this. Don’t know what happened to Joanne but Jesse remarried and had kids. Jesse also kept Blaze when they split till Blaze passed away from old age. Hopefully Joanne got the help she desperately needed
That may well be true, but after seeing his response when Victoria asked her to share with him what she'd needed from him (even before the dogs) and didn't get--the disrespect he showed her, his casual and condescending dismissal of her vulnerability and needs, I wonder whether the whole dog situation may not have been a misguided solution to his coldness and emotional rejection.
@@Alice-xy3fi tbh I feel like she was straight up lying about her unmet needs before the dog issue, she seems extremely manipulative and controlling, the marks of a narcissist.
That woman has a nice yard, yet the dogs spend the whole day locked in cages in the house and can only go out and play for 10-15 minutes per day and get to walk only around the block. That's a cruel life for a dog and she thinks she's rescuing them. She's deluded!
Joanne doesn't realize that she is the problem. She has the best intentions--but she cares so much that she is neglecting those dogs. But why are the dogs in crates? Why didn't Victoria address that? They are big dogs in crates that are too small for them.
I agree completely. They crates were too small for the dogs and they were left in the crates for way too long. Feeding a dog in a proper sized crate is fine. Separating the dogs (by using crates) when they're working on stuffed Kongs (so they won't have any resource guarding issues) is fine. But stuffing the dogs in a too-small crate and leaving them for 20 to 23 hours a day is cruel. The most hardened criminals are relegated to solitary confinement. These dogs aren't hardened criminals, yet they are relegated to solitary confinement. Poor dogs.
I agree that Joanne is the problem, but the crates are not too small for the dogs and the crates are not the problem. The lack of structure and discipline in the dogs' lives is the problem.
And she dosen't care about her husband's hearing loss because of the dogs. That's inexcusable!! I wouldn't put up with that if I were him. His health should be first and foremost before these dogs. I'm sorry the dogs had bad beginnings, but the husband has the right to enjoy his home in a quiet manner. He has rights too. And his hearing loss is probably permanent, and will get worse over time. (Jan Griffiths).
I'm surprised Victoria didn't address the fact that these dogs spend the majority of their lives in those crates. It's no different than being in the shelter and stuck in a cage. How has Joann improved their lives? I don't think she has. If rehoming them means they can live outside the crate and lay in the sofa or on the bed and actually be a part of a family, I think that's a better option.
Jessie is a much tougher dude than me, for sure. Or much dumber lol, not sure which. A woman like his wife? I'd have been gone a LONG time ago, and would have called someone to get those dogs out of that house. I'll give her credit for loving those dogs as much as she does, but she can't understand she's the one hurting and abusing them.
I've seen a lot of these episodes, with one spouse being completely insufferable. But I wonder if they direct them to act that way so that there is an arch to the story?
That's my question. And there wasn't even comfortable bedding in the crates. Leave the crate doors open and if the dog chooses to go in there and nap (and, for God's sake, put some comfortable bedding in the crate), great. But making a dog stay in the crate when you're there is just cruel. I don't think she realizes that.
The dogs don't get along well at all. They're kept in them so they don't tear each other up. They are not trained at all. She really has no control over them. (Jan Griffiths).
@@janhankins911Well, I think that they don't even have a proper bed inside because those crates are too little for those dogs, I'm not even sure how they could put something else inside, tbh. This woman is cruel towards her dog and I'm not sure if she even realizes it. She whines about her husband pull the dogs while walking but she doesn't question the fact that she make them live their lives literally in crates. I wonder how would she feel like living like that...
I have my dogs in crates but 2 sizes larger than what they need and orthopedic beds with a chew toy and an enrichment toy. But that comes with a two mile walk in the morning, obedience training before breakfast, an hour bathroom break at noon on my lunch, then a mile walk with a mile jog at night an hour before dinner. On my off days, we go on long hikes, swimming, or bike riding. All of their meals are fed with puzzle feeders or slow feeders. Of course they get time to play with each other with games of tug of war or wrestling
For real. They were not introduced to one another obviously. No discipline. No training or constructive work with them. She has no business owning so many dogs if she can't train or control them. (Jan Griffiths).
She’s insane and Jesse RUN DON’T WALK AWAY RUN!! If she does this with dogs it will be 10 times worse if u have children!!! Don’t have children with this woman.
She says she cares so much but she's allowed them to spend most of their time in kennels with no outlets.... that's not caring. She doesn't believe in training and she has allowed so much stress that one of her dogs is pooping blood. That's neglect.
Yeah what happened to that sick dog? I think it must have been rehomed or returned to the shelter because there was no footage of it in the 2 week follow-up.
In the beginning of this she doesn't know how to raise dogs. And she's raising them worse than a shelter would, then treating the husband poorly, I'm glad these kinds of people change with this show
i find she does it a lot in these episodes. the first time i saw it i was like "wait, what?" and laughed. it still is a little bizarre everytime tho lol 💀
She’s like a lot of dog owners who think they’re great people by ‘rescuing’ animals but treat people like sh:t. She emotionally abuses her husband in the name of caring for her dogs.She doesn’t really care about the dogs either,she enables bad behavior to their detriment b/c it makes her feel good.
She thinks she's saving these dogs , but she didn't even know that one of the dogs had a bloody stool. . She's overwhelmed and I certainly hope that Victoria can help
I just want to know why they're in cages all the time! How is that giving dogs what they need? I agree with victoria, it sounds like a shelter in there!
My sister is like that, she has pets & she ignores them most of the time & makes them everyone else's problems (when they're not holed up in her room all day). They are both untrained & have separation anxiety. They're not her friends, they're her property; decorations for her already crowded room
same with my mom. she specifically went out on her own and got a dog, and then made it everyone else's problem to train and play with. she treats her horribly otherwise, and im currently doing all the training so her dog isn't a complete loss.
If I was the humane society seeing this, I would ban her from adopting any more dogs and probably not use her for volunteering either. She can't even walk a dog properly, she should not be allowed to work with shelter dogs who are already stressed and have possible behavior issues. It makes them so confused to be around insecure individuals that can't train.
You should judge the humane society for allowing four dogs to go to her home without going and doing a home visit first. What shelter in their right mind would send a dog like Max who is reactive to a home with 3 other dogs? It sounds like the local shelter needs some training.
As bad as Joanne is, Jesse’s no saint either. He constantly yanks the dogs by their collars (which Joanne also does, but it’s no better when _he_ does it), shouts at them instead of teaching them alternate ways to behave and rags on Joanne instead of looking in the mirror.
the moment you say "I care more about my pets, than I do my romantic partner" - is the moment you need to take a step back and re-evaluate the situation. i'm a dog person myself, i think they deserve the same amount of care and respect as a human - but i would never place a dog's welfare above my partner's, because that's just a divorce waiting to happen.
It never ceases to amaze me how, when It comes down to it, the dogs are pretty much never the problem. The owners needs counseling or therapy for one issue or another, and that just trickles down into how they treat the dogs. Also, Kit Kat needs to do a brand deal with Victoria! 😂
I could not STAND being married to a woman like that. The dogs can't stand it either. "He gets to run away, I don't." She's saying this like she hasn't 100% caused this situation that she's trapped her husband into. I feel bad for the guy. He needs to get a partner who actually cares for him. She's probably using the dogs to push Jesse out, because she feels like if he leaves because of the dogs, then she's blameless and it's all his fault. Because the dogs "need" her so of course, she could never leave them! It would be his fault for being selfish, unsympathetic, etc... when in reality this is all a situation of her own making.
“Doesn’t believe in dog training” wants a dog trainer to help her 🤦🏻♀️ She wonder why her dogs are nut jobs because they have no training, structure, boundaries, etc.
This woman is clearly immature and needs psychiatric help, like badly! How in the world her husband put up with this mess of a woman is beyond me. My Lord. I’m just shocked at this. She’s insane!!
I do not buy the BS from Joann. Not one bit. Jessie doesn't neglect her and I don't believe for one second that he is "always gone". He just doesn't give her 100% attention 24/7 and her whiney, needy, fragile self can't handle that. What an epic crybaby. Jessie should run as fast as he can..... and Joann should see a Psychiatrist.
I saw an update in the comments, someone said they divorced and Jesse took blaze; and is now married with kids. Not sure what happened to Joann. Good for him.
@@ASentientPlant I hope the other dog is away from Joann and is doing better, but glad that Jesse got away from her! Seems like he's doing far better now
I'm not sure what you being a divorcee has to do with it, but I also hate hearing her say these things about this man she's supposed to care about and who cares for her.
Because she has probably got some knowledge on why people get divorced.. I'm divorced too and this is very sad to see... they will not be married long if she does not stop!
Victoria you always do such a great job with the dogs AS WELL AS the people! Thank you for everything you do! You really impact animal's and people's lives in such a positive way. All the best from Germany!
Victoria saying the dogs felt like dogs at a rescue shelter really shows why sympathy doesn't get you anywhere if you don't have the ability to follow through. She "saved" them by putting them in the same situation only removing the possibility of euthanasia. Even then if it's not euthanasia it's the chance of the dogs dying from stress or some other problem caused by the carelessness.
I have rescued cats and dogs in Indonesia for 15 years, sometimes having up to 10 dogs and 15 cats or more at one time. NONE of them was EVER in a crate! I helped them heal (both physically and mentally) until they were ready for adoption and some had deep traumas, so they stayed with me. Of course being fully present for them 24/7 requests a lot of dedication, unconditional love, attention to each character, structure and energy but seeing them heal, come out of their shell, being carelessly happy and well integrated in a family or the pack is the greatest reward. There was never such chaos as in this home with only 4 dogs. poor animals ;o(
😂 the comments from super ignorant judgmental people are the best. The dogs are horrible and she’s no prize eh? The number of people who are miserable in their lives so they go online and put down other people grows daily.
@@amyfu2047She’s a nightmare,as are the dogs. The dogs are aggressive,disobedient,loud and she enables the behavior. She said she’d put the dogs over her husband. That’s insane to live in or defend. It’s not a judgment,it’s a fact.
"All family life is organized around the most damaged person in it" - Sigmund Freud Even if the dogs weren't kept in cages, the stress from living with this level of human dysfunction will turn them into nervous wrecks. When Joanne says, "If he needs to go? He needs to go!" all I could think was, "Run, Jessie, run!"
@Lionforaday She didn’t take accountability for all the serious harm she caused and she somehow turned all the blame on Jessie. She neglects the dogs actual needs, but pretends like she’s saving them and acts like the victim. What a narcissistic b*tch.
@@TTHeavensentI just reread your comment, and realized you're specifically talking about having the time to do home visits. Which, I can also understand that. But, with all that is at risk, there really is no excuse. They have volunteers. They always have volunteers, who are capable of doing home checks. With today's technology. No one even needs to leave the facility. Many shelters and rescues are having walk throughs being recorded by the potential owners, or now, doing it through FaceTime. At the very least, doing thorough background checks, more than one interview to get a picture of what the home life will be like. And then getting references from friends and/or family members is the least that can be done. Without even just that. They could be sending these dogs off to owners like this woman, or even worse. The issue our shelters and rescues had in the past. We're people "adopting" dogs to be used as bait for dog fighting. This is a very common issue across the globe in many other shelters as well. Which is why my local shelters, and many others. Go thru such thorough checks before handing any dogs over.
She "rescued" them from a shelter just to put them in an even more stressful, miserable environment. They probably had more space in the shelter's kennels than they ever do in her home.
Dogs can just amplify relationship issues. This is a perfect example of human needs creating dog behavior problems. It's so interesting to watch people face their own feelings when trying to learn how to correct a dog's behaviors. Everyone should have to learn how to train a dog so they can learn better ways to relate to people.
Im curious what rescue these dogs were at. I foster with a rescue and we do home checks, talk about how they plan to train, dogs meet the resident dogs, etc. The moment someone says “I think training is cruel” it’s a no go.
Rescue four dogs then cram them in tiny cages all day 🤬 These dogs need rehoming, they deserve love and happy lives. Gorgeous dogs. Cruel selfish owner.
This woman's voice is enough to grate on the nervous system; her poor husband having to tolerate her and her constant nagging. In my opinion, they have too many dogs: move to acreage.
I was watching this video earlier this morning and unfortunately I was wearing headphones. It's been like , 8 hours and my head still hurts . No wonder everyone is stressed out . I feel so bad for the dogs and Jessie
What happen to Ava - ? pit bull mix with blood stress BM !?? Thank you Victoria for you patience and the way you handled this couple!! This is both amazing & helpful to them & dog's as well as giving encouragement for this young married couple to continue to seek help with themselves & dog's!! 🎉 Both marriage & behavior trouble dog's are treated to be disposable AND THAT IS HORRIBLE!! Both marriage & dog's with behavioral issues most often can be saved!! Thank you Victoria for all you do!! God Bless You and the lives you touch!! 🙌 Maybe some how & someday you could help me & my furbaby. 🙏🤗
the nerve the girl has to make everything about her, like jessie even got medical problems, i can see why he couldnt bear staying in such a loud environment. AND THE FACT THAT THE GIRL SAID SHE DIDNT WANNA TRAIN HER DOGS WAS SO SHOCKING. like girl.
The stool when the film crew was there and it had never happened before shows she was already at the line and the added stress of the film, the other dogs loosing their poor minds crossed her threshold. A pittie mix that anxious is a mauling waiting to happen, then there is the outcome… will it be another dog or a person. The damage she has caused to these dogs in the name of “rescue” and “love” is MIND BLOWING!!!
I had rescue dogs for 30 years from all sorts of backgrounds, often cruelty, starvation had been involved. I always had 2 or 3 at a time. They were never kept in crates, and I always walked them at least twice a day, before I went to work, and as soon as I came home from work. They were left loose in the downstairs while I was at work, and had access to the large garden when I was at home. I know from my neighbours that they were quiet while I was at work. My son loved playing with them in the garden, throwing balls, sticks etc. I can honestly say that I never had a problem with any of my dogs, and they brought us so much pleasure, I was so thankful to have them. Friends visiting were not jumped on, they just lay down around us . I do think that the wife was not educated enough about dogs needs before she took in the dogs, and I think it is cruel to keep them in crates! I am sure the rescue kennels she got the dogs from would be horrified!
Hi, I have a rescue dog too, with a history of starvation - were yours obsessed (to a degree beyond the average dog) with food? If so, did you ever find a way to curb that obsession? I really wish my girl could develop a healthier relationship with food!
@@kwarra-an I feed with slow feeders, enrichment toys, and hand feeding. it slows them down but it doesn't help the obsession. the obsession over food will get better over time especially if you give the dog a place away from other animals to eat said food alone. right now he/she feels like the food is going to get stolen away or they won't get as much as everyone else gets. structure is about all I have. I've only been training dogs for three years, I've studied cases like this, but never been in contact. if you need further help I'd reach out to a professional trainer with a good reputation.
@@kwarra-an I had one dog, a German shepherd, that stands out , because he was very emaciated when I took him from the rescue kennels. They had been unable to get his weight up as he was jumping around so much in his run. He was aged about 11 years and had been kept in a yard all his life. I had 2 other dogs, but had to feed him separately as he was very defensive. I did cure him of that, by feeding him by hand, and every time he took food from me, praising him. The 2 other dogs were in the same room, but not able to get near him, they were trained to lie down. He realised they were no threat to him, and was eventually relaxed enough to be fed in the same room as them. And, of course, was not going to bite the hand that feeds him. He got used to the times he was going to be fed, and did not look for food, as he got to know the routine. I also had a walk-in pantry, so no food was accessible at any other time, except his meal-times! Not sure if it will work in your case, but good luck. 🙂
I don't understand why she insists on keeping them crated all damn day. She shouldn't have "rescued" them if that was going to be their life. That's not right.
She is the most ignorant person I've ever seen, I cannot believe she'd even be allowed to keep any animals. Her poor husband, I can't believe he's stuck around, you're worth more Jesse!
This isn't rescuing dogs, this is the first stage of pet hoarding.
My thoughts exactly. I was about to comment this.
Agreed. I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up with more dogs after this.
I came to say the same thing. You knew it was heading that way with her 'no one can love them like I do' mentality.
As someone who owns two dogs, and have 3-4 dogs in my house I'm training this woman is a absolute narcissist who believes she's a hero for rescuing which she rescued for completely selfish reason, she wanted to brag about rescuing and have a cuddle buddy when it's convenient, she's the type who doesn't clean a litter box or do any crap for their pet, she 100% forgets to feed them and walk them.
I'm a dog trainer and I would call animal control immediately after being around her for 5 minutes
I feel bad for Jessie. Not only does she nag him constantly, she said she doesnt believe in training the dogs, and she constantly hates on him for trying to help, but gets angry when he doesn't. She is the most ungrateful person I've seen in a while. Oh and her whiny voice is annoying as heck.
💯
Yeh he seems like an alright guy
Jesse is dysfunctional for being with her, and maybe she wasn’t lying when she told Victoria he’s been an absent partner, even before the dogs. The dogs feel the void.
Jesse deserves a medal to tolerate this woman as long as he has; most would have left by now.
Her whiney voice on top of the incessant barking and commitment to no training, I would just go get the Sunday papers and never return.
The girl's got a saviour complex. She's more interested in being a saviour than she is acting in the interests of either her husband or the dogs she thinks she's "saving"
Wonder who will pay for the roof over her head then.
Yes and i think they have problem and their negative energy also affects these poor dogs 😢 dont let this dogs suffer and stress out
Wants to be the savior but not put in the work that a savior does.
You’ve got this exactly right 😮😮😮
Exactly my thoughts.
Just so everyone knows- Jesse remarried, had a beautiful daughter, kept Blaze and raised him for a wonderful 17 years until he passed of old age. Jesse is a fire fighter and you can tell from his social media that he cares deeply for animals and his family. I’m happy that he has the happiness and peace that he deserves after such a stressful beginning to love and a family.
Thanks. I feel much better knowing this.
He looks like a such a good man. Putting up with things he didn’t have to. Plus her not caring about him and the stress and hearing damage it was doing to him.
I couldn’t last 5 minutes with that noise.
thank goodness!!
@@Zoetheluckygirl yeah i agree she was unbearable
✨so pleased.
Thank you so much. Was so disturbed at the idea of them having children some day. That poor guy would have terrible fights for visitation. She would also most likely have taken him to the cleaners. I feel much better knowing this.
So just to be clear. She does not work, she has a nice back garden and still decided to lock them up all day, saying she saved them.... Yep that makes sense..👍
And wants her husband to walk them. Like... girl... what do you do all day? 😂
But. . . .but. . . she saved them into those barren cages!
Weird that Victoria didn't say anything about that. I was expecting her to introduce all sorts of puzzle toys and agility stuff.
She also let the dog lick her face.. With the same tongue it's licked its arsehole and balls with. 😂
My guess is the reason this loony had them in crates is not because she wanted to lock them but that she literally claimed she didn’t “believe in training” that it was “cruel” to not let them “be dogs”. Well it’s cruel to not train them. Because I think she had to crate them due to dog fights making things unsafe. Combine with her refusal to actually train them.
This is a shelter environment.
She has no business owning dogs. She is causing them stress and anxiety, hence the barking.
she needs a bunny, to put in a cage and hand feed. That was the solution to this episode.
*EDIT: ACTUALLY SHE NEEDS TO GO TO A PSYCH WARD FOR EVALUATION. LEAVE THE BUNNIES IN PEACE*
@@flipnshifty Funny thing, bunnies doesn't live good lives in cages, they need to roam free like dogs and cats. Guinea pigs however? perfect solution to what you're presenting!
@@flipnshiftyshe doesn't need ANY animal. A house plant or a fluffy teddy bear is plenty responsibility for her.
And i agree a bunny is nót supposed to live in a sad little cage
I feel like the majority of us shouldn't have dogs. I learned a lot from this video.
@@imle9279not to be that guy, but Guinea pigs also need quite a bit of space! Two Guinea pigs (minimum number) require at the very, *very* least, 0,7m², or 7,5ft² of floor space. A small plant would, as a previous commenter suggested, be more appropriate before she moves on to other organisms.
How is it even legal to keep a dog in such a small cage all day? How can she even think she'd rescued them when she treat them so bad?!
Those crates are way too small, and way too empty. Why know blanket and a toy?
Fr tho like the kennels at the pound/humane societies/rescues are far bigger than those crates. When I crated my dog (for 2.5 years until we trusted her alone in the house) we literally only crated her if no one was home and it was too hot or too cold for her to be in our huge fenced in and locked backyard
Heck they are in a bigger space at a shelter than in those cages, maybe she should be put in a small cage and see how she likes it
They need to be rescued from her.
In usa, pets=property.
“He’s never around,” says Joanne.
I wouldn’t be there either. She’s self-centered, narcissistic, and has the emotional intelligence of an 11 year old. That marriage is NOT going to last. There’s much more going on than dog issues.
I can’t STAND her
he's never around BECAUSE of her and her many failures with these dogs. I mean, she doesn't believe in training?? She keeps them crated and ignores the very real damage their barking causes, to her, to them, and to Jesse. She ignores the fighting and the bites from Max, and the risks involved in having a dog with a bite history. She ignores Jesse's needs and all of his concerns. She prioritizes her care for the dogs (not the dogs themselves, just her need to be needed) over her HUSBAND. I would never be home, either!
@@LG-jb9zshow did he not know what he was getting himself into
@Belovedfire narcissists are good at love bombing and gaslighting
You are so right. I'm surprised Jesse is still there. He seems to be a sweet guy and deserves better.
Wow, she volunteers and doesn't know how important training is for owning a dog. Untrained dogs wind up in shelters!
Yes being a volunteer in taking care of dogs doesnt mean you already knows everything coz understanding each dog personality means you must experience rearing one by yourself first 😶 researching and learning about them is the key on understanding not assuming whats in your head 🙄 thinking she knows everything 😢
Whatever organization she volunteered for needs to send her home.
And on death row
And Bailey is underweight, how can she not see that?
No wonder the dogs bark so much; Joanne makes as much noise. Her whining and yelling is making my ears bleed.
The husband can’t be human. How the hell does he put with her
True he has lots of patience coz if im that guy im gonna leave immediately coz im an introvert and im easily stress with loud sounds for soo long. This woman feels shes rescuing dogs but shes not doing any good either with the dogs coz shes the one who has the big problem in their house She doesnt listen to her husband and her dogs 😢
She stresses me out during the intro. How am I about to watch like 40 minutes of this?
Watching this episode stressed me out!!!
@@XSemperIdem5patience is the key that how you did it
This woman is insufferable. I'm not sure I can even make it through this episode.
I’m right there with you. I had to turn it off every 10 minutes to calm down but wanted to finish to see if it had a positive resolution.
SAME. Anyone who puts a creature circling in a crate makes me wanna have a “serious chat”. She’s sick in the head
I don’t believe he’s never there because in other episodes of Victoria helping families u can tell when someone not helping but Jesse is always there and willing to walk and feed the dogs even with what they did to his hearing so I just believe it’s her manipulating him it makes me sick but I’m glad Victoria is helping families like this 💜😊
If it makes you guys feel better the husband couldn’t handle her either. He took Blaze (not sure bout the others sorry) and remarried, he’s doing real well according to his social media.
@@WingedLunarWolf I bet wifey still got the house and a bunch of money from him though.
How can you say you "rescued" these dogs when they're stuck in cages all day?! They could've had better!
They only rescued them from euthanasia... they live in cages
She’s a kook, and shouldn’t own any dogs
They literally replicated the pound in her own household and tried to act like this was a better living situation for them than the alternative OF the pound.. She's delusional
As someone who owns two dogs, and have 3-4 dogs in my house I'm training this woman is a absolute narcissist who believes she's a hero for rescuing which she rescued for completely selfish reason, she wanted to brag about rescuing and have a cuddle buddy when it's convenient, she's the type who doesn't clean a litter box or do any crap for their pet, she 100% forgets to feed them and walk them.
I'm a dog trainer and I would call animal control immediately after being around her for 5 minutes
She has literally made those sick with her “training is cruel” philosophy. I cannot say how angry I am. How can she be so selfish? She WANTS those dogs to suffer so she can be the Florence Nightingale. This is all about her. She thinks her home is a good loving home? It’s one of the cruelst I have ever seen.
A trained dog is a happy dog. They need boundaries just like children. (Jan Griffiths).
@@douglasgriffiths3534absolutely. If you don’t train a dog they will not respect you. They will bully you. Take advantage of you
True order and discipline is needed in everything to have a better and unstressful life 😢 i almost not finished these episodes 😂😂 coz im a bit annoyed in her principle regarding dog training 😅
I agree! Im so pissed how she thinks she always right! She dont know how she bless she has such a good husband
Yeah, it almost feels like Munchausen's by proxy
This one was stressful to watch. She didn't save the dogs if that's the environment she was keeping them in. She was being selfish and wanting her needs met but not acting to ensure the dogs' wellbeing. Properly socialized and trained dogs are much happier. This was pure stressful chaos. She created a stressful shelter environment in her house just minus the euthanasia. I really hope she took Victoria's teachings seriously and followed through even after the update.
"I felt attacked" instead of "I'm horrifird that I've been hurting my husband, myself, and the dogs."

Victoria is as much of a therapist/counselor as she is a dog trainer. I always wonder if she ever took any classes or something, or if it’s just learned over years of working with people. 😂 she really is an amazing person and is great at training people.
Victoria Stilwell is an actress. She is coached on what to do for the situation
No she isn’t 😂😂 she’s a dog trainer 😂😂 dummy she actually has a school she started for people that want to be a dog trainer
no they do this because they need drama for the episode. nothing more
@@D0B3RW0M4NWhere is that sourced?
@@D0B3RW0M4N she s a walking ad for KITKAT
I have NEVER seen a more ridiculous, neglectful, overprotective sad excuse for a dog owner. I truly hope that she has changed her ways after this and Jesse deserves better. She can enjoy her life with these dogs alone, but she better learn to take care of them properly.
So, this Joanne rescues these dogs from kennels and their most likely troubled pasts _just_ to put them in kennels _again_ and _keep them_ in their troubled mindsets indefinitely? The lights are on, but it doesn’t seem like anyone's home.
How can someone not be okay with training, but be totally fine caging them for so long and causing them stress
To the wife: Please don’t ever reproduce. And ….. if hubby leaves…. Guess what you’ll have to go out to work and be away from the dogs.
It is cruel to keep a dog in a cage for too long
That women is the one who needs to be in that crate, honestly she annoys me a lot more than the 4 dogs together

She wants to not be able that poor dog without her . Disable the dog. She is an animal abuser. I really hope she can never be able to have kids. She is dangerous. She would be one of those moms who keep hurting her kids and taking them to hospital, to fulfill her sick “saviour complex”. She really scares me
@@melt2947 Indeed, scary behavior
Omg complaining about pulling at the collar yet keep your dogs caged in a tiny cage all day??? Who does that. 'How would she feel whole day put in a tiny cage'
In her defense, Jesse shouldn't have yanked that dog's collar. He's a living being, not a toy.
@@rogue7723 but do you remember why the dogs pull so much! Because Joanne won't train them because it's "cruel". Also she pulls on they're collars too, granted not as hard as Jesse, but she nags him for every little pull sooo...
It's a not often when you actually get a situation of it's me or the dog. But this intervention was desperately needed. Thank you, Victoria for intervening in a family who clearly had no idea what they were doing.
I truly believe that without her husband stopping her, she would have easily become a pet hoarder. She has way too much sympathy for the dogs and she's babying them to the extent that she's willing to let go of her marriage for them.
I've never seen someone who desperately needs to see a psychologist before on this show. I don't know if her maternal instincts are in overdrive or she's using the dogs as a substitute for something she is unable to have. But she 100% needs an evaluation and consulting.
I agree completely! Got an update. Jesse and Joanne did not stay together much longer after this. Don’t know what happened to Joanne but Jesse remarried and had kids. Jesse also kept Blaze when they split till Blaze passed away from old age. Hopefully Joanne got the help she desperately needed
That may well be true, but after seeing his response when Victoria asked her to share with him what she'd needed from him (even before the dogs) and didn't get--the disrespect he showed her, his casual and condescending dismissal of her vulnerability and needs, I wonder whether the whole dog situation may not have been a misguided solution to his coldness and emotional rejection.
Can you imagine what sort of mother she’d be? 😢
There's a person for everyone out there...and for most that person is a therapist!
@@Alice-xy3fi tbh I feel like she was straight up lying about her unmet needs before the dog issue, she seems extremely manipulative and controlling, the marks of a narcissist.
That woman has a nice yard, yet the dogs spend the whole day locked in cages in the house and can only go out and play for 10-15 minutes per day and get to walk only around the block. That's a cruel life for a dog and she thinks she's rescuing them. She's deluded!
You know it's a good one when you're 2 minutes in and already regretting it
the barking was hurting MY ears and my volume isnt even all the way up LMFAO
"blaze doesn't eat unless someone was in there"
"well he just did"
the cameraman:
that's what i'm sayin 😭
I thought the same thing 😅😂😂
Joanne doesn't realize that she is the problem. She has the best intentions--but she cares so much that she is neglecting those dogs. But why are the dogs in crates? Why didn't Victoria address that? They are big dogs in crates that are too small for them.
I agree completely. They crates were too small for the dogs and they were left in the crates for way too long. Feeding a dog in a proper sized crate is fine. Separating the dogs (by using crates) when they're working on stuffed Kongs (so they won't have any resource guarding issues) is fine. But stuffing the dogs in a too-small crate and leaving them for 20 to 23 hours a day is cruel. The most hardened criminals are relegated to solitary confinement. These dogs aren't hardened criminals, yet they are relegated to solitary confinement. Poor dogs.
Guess there's just too much issues for one episode to contain =__=
She address that she said their crates are so small for them to move around
@@lindziep6319 I missed that.
I agree that Joanne is the problem, but the crates are not too small for the dogs and the crates are not the problem. The lack of structure and discipline in the dogs' lives is the problem.
And she dosen't care about her husband's hearing loss because of the dogs. That's inexcusable!! I wouldn't put up with that if I were him. His health should be first and foremost before these dogs. I'm sorry the dogs had bad beginnings, but the husband has the right to enjoy his home in a quiet manner. He has rights too. And his hearing loss is probably permanent, and will get worse over time. (Jan Griffiths).
She gave no effs about his stress ulcers too! Instead saying it's been hard for her too, ignoring that... Clearly not as hard!
He didn’t end up putting up with it. Apparently he remarried to someone else and is doing much better
OMG this video alone was so loud! Victoria should’ve taken those dogs. Imagine how the neighbors feel.
I'm surprised Victoria didn't address the fact that these dogs spend the majority of their lives in those crates. It's no different than being in the shelter and stuck in a cage. How has Joann improved their lives? I don't think she has. If rehoming them means they can live outside the crate and lay in the sofa or on the bed and actually be a part of a family, I think that's a better option.
Jessie is a much tougher dude than me, for sure. Or much dumber lol, not sure which. A woman like his wife? I'd have been gone a LONG time ago, and would have called someone to get those dogs out of that house. I'll give her credit for loving those dogs as much as she does, but she can't understand she's the one hurting and abusing them.
I've seen a lot of these episodes, with one spouse being completely insufferable. But I wonder if they direct them to act that way so that there is an arch to the story?
@@cheers2023 Why would you want to make yourself look bad on camera though. That's just next level stupidity
Why are the dogs in kennels while they are home?
That's my question. And there wasn't even comfortable bedding in the crates. Leave the crate doors open and if the dog chooses to go in there and nap (and, for God's sake, put some comfortable bedding in the crate), great. But making a dog stay in the crate when you're there is just cruel. I don't think she realizes that.
The dogs don't get along well at all. They're kept in them so they don't tear each other up. They are not trained at all. She really has no control over them. (Jan Griffiths).
@@janhankins911Well, I think that they don't even have a proper bed inside because those crates are too little for those dogs, I'm not even sure how they could put something else inside, tbh. This woman is cruel towards her dog and I'm not sure if she even realizes it. She whines about her husband pull the dogs while walking but she doesn't question the fact that she make them live their lives literally in crates. I wonder how would she feel like living like that...
@@janhankins911I don’t lock up my puppy because I know she has separation anxiety. I let her be herself by going in and out of the crate.
Gotta get that Kit Kat sponsorship in there. Very subtle LOL
I have my dogs in crates but 2 sizes larger than what they need and orthopedic beds with a chew toy and an enrichment toy. But that comes with a two mile walk in the morning, obedience training before breakfast, an hour bathroom break at noon on my lunch, then a mile walk with a mile jog at night an hour before dinner. On my off days, we go on long hikes, swimming, or bike riding. All of their meals are fed with puzzle feeders or slow feeders. Of course they get time to play with each other with games of tug of war or wrestling
Thanks! These are great activities and suggestions!
Nice! I don't put her bed in the crate right now because she bites her bed right now
Poor dogs need rehomed, not healthy for them there
For real. They were not introduced to one another obviously. No discipline. No training or constructive work with them. She has no business owning so many dogs if she can't train or control them. (Jan Griffiths).
Victoria is such a wholesome dog trainer. She deals with more than the dogs.
She’s insane and Jesse RUN DON’T WALK AWAY RUN!! If she does this with dogs it will be 10 times worse if u have children!!! Don’t have children with this woman.
There are methods of training dogs that are not cruel, including Victoria’s methods.
If she is home all day, why are the dogs in crates?
Ive never been more pissed off at person then i am at Joanna
Does he have a hearing loss because of the dogs or Joanne’s loud, whining voice? 😬 I got a headache just listening to her.
Probably both. (Jan Griffiths).
Oh my god, I don't care if Victoria can train these dogs. This poor man needs to run a fast as he can.
She says she cares so much but she's allowed them to spend most of their time in kennels with no outlets.... that's not caring. She doesn't believe in training and she has allowed so much stress that one of her dogs is pooping blood. That's neglect.
I think that's some kind of savio syndrome
Yeah what happened to that sick dog? I think it must have been rehomed or returned to the shelter because there was no footage of it in the 2 week follow-up.
None of what this woman does is for “the dogs”. She totally does all of this for her own selfish reasons.
Just like my sister. She wanted dogs, but she didn't want the responsibility that goes with them
100% This was all for the sake of stroking her ego and making herself feel like a savior.
In the beginning of this she doesn't know how to raise dogs. And she's raising them worse than a shelter would, then treating the husband poorly, I'm glad these kinds of people change with this show
That KitKat advert right near the end was super bizarre 😂
So weird lmao
i find she does it a lot in these episodes. the first time i saw it i was like "wait, what?" and laughed. it still is a little bizarre everytime tho lol 💀
My favourite chocolate bar ! But yes a bit strange
It's a wonderful restaurant!
She’s like a lot of dog owners who think they’re great people by ‘rescuing’ animals but treat people like sh:t. She emotionally abuses her husband in the name of caring for her dogs.She doesn’t really care about the dogs either,she enables bad behavior to their detriment b/c it makes her feel good.
She thinks she's saving these dogs , but she didn't even know that one of the dogs had a bloody stool. . She's overwhelmed and I certainly hope that Victoria can help
I just want to know why they're in cages all the time! How is that giving dogs what they need? I agree with victoria, it sounds like a shelter in there!
Dogs in shelters have bigger cages than that! Hell, my guinea pigs have a cage bigger than that!
My chickens, ducks, and turkeys have more space than her dogs@@kwarra-an
@an_annanas lol I bet those are real happy Guinea pigs.
My sister is like that, she has pets & she ignores them most of the time & makes them everyone else's problems (when they're not holed up in her room all day). They are both untrained & have separation anxiety. They're not her friends, they're her property; decorations for her already crowded room
same with my mom. she specifically went out on her own and got a dog, and then made it everyone else's problem to train and play with. she treats her horribly otherwise, and im currently doing all the training so her dog isn't a complete loss.
If I was the humane society seeing this, I would ban her from adopting any more dogs and probably not use her for volunteering either. She can't even walk a dog properly, she should not be allowed to work with shelter dogs who are already stressed and have possible behavior issues. It makes them so confused to be around insecure individuals that can't train.
Just let her clean the kennels when the dogs are being walked by a volunteer who actually knows something about dogs.
You should judge the humane society for allowing four dogs to go to her home without going and doing a home visit first. What shelter in their right mind would send a dog like Max who is reactive to a home with 3 other dogs? It sounds like the local shelter needs some training.
I don’t understand those people who take dogs to put them in cage!!! why are the dogs not out in the house with them? what a horrible life?!?
Exactly, or take the time to train them. These people think dogs will automatically know how to act right.
I'm two minutes in and... holy... props to the guy! I would've never stayed in that house a minute longer!
As bad as Joanne is, Jesse’s no saint either. He constantly yanks the dogs by their collars (which Joanne also does, but it’s no better when _he_ does it), shouts at them instead of teaching them alternate ways to behave and rags on Joanne instead of looking in the mirror.
I'm surprised Victoria was still okay with the dogs being caged for most hours of the day.
the moment you say "I care more about my pets, than I do my romantic partner" - is the moment you need to take a step back and re-evaluate the situation. i'm a dog person myself, i think they deserve the same amount of care and respect as a human - but i would never place a dog's welfare above my partner's, because that's just a divorce waiting to happen.
What’s ironic about this tv show is how Victoria is basically telling these dog parents that they need rules, structure, play, toys, and affection. ❤
It never ceases to amaze me how, when It comes down to it, the dogs are pretty much never the problem. The owners needs counseling or therapy for one issue or another, and that just trickles down into how they treat the dogs. Also, Kit Kat needs to do a brand deal with Victoria! 😂
I could not STAND being married to a woman like that. The dogs can't stand it either.
"He gets to run away, I don't." She's saying this like she hasn't 100% caused this situation that she's trapped her husband into. I feel bad for the guy. He needs to get a partner who actually cares for him.
She's probably using the dogs to push Jesse out, because she feels like if he leaves because of the dogs, then she's blameless and it's all his fault. Because the dogs "need" her so of course, she could never leave them! It would be his fault for being selfish, unsympathetic, etc... when in reality this is all a situation of her own making.
Classic narcissistic behavior.
“Doesn’t believe in dog training” wants a dog trainer to help her 🤦🏻♀️
She wonder why her dogs are nut jobs because they have no training, structure, boundaries, etc.
Yep. Trained dogs are happy dogs. (Jan Griffiths).
It's so disturbing, hard to watch, but just entertaining enough
Joann is kind of like a horder…..
Someone explain to me while they’re still in cages after Victoria left. It’s bugging me.
This woman is clearly immature and needs psychiatric help, like badly! How in the world her husband put up with this mess of a woman is beyond me. My Lord. I’m just shocked at this. She’s insane!!
Her voice, attitude, and the dogs barking. She can live with them.
This is horrific. She should not have dogs. Please ask the Asher House to take them. These dogs will go insane kept in tiny cages
This woman is nuttier than squirrel shyt 😐
That is a living hell. I feel so bad for Jessie.
I do not buy the BS from Joann. Not one bit. Jessie doesn't neglect her and I don't believe for one second that he is "always gone".
He just doesn't give her 100% attention 24/7 and her whiney, needy, fragile self can't handle that. What an epic crybaby. Jessie should run as fast as he can..... and Joann should see a Psychiatrist.
I saw an update in the comments, someone said they divorced and Jesse took blaze; and is now married with kids. Not sure what happened to Joann. Good for him.

As a divorcee , it breaks my heart to hear the wife's disrespectful comments about her husband.
I'm not sure what you being a divorcee has to do with it, but I also hate hearing her say these things about this man she's supposed to care about and who cares for her.
Because she has probably got some knowledge on why people get divorced.. I'm divorced too and this is very sad to see... they will not be married long if she does not stop!
Victoria you always do such a great job with the dogs AS WELL AS the people! Thank you for everything you do! You really impact animal's and people's lives in such a positive way. All the best from Germany!
Victoria saying the dogs felt like dogs at a rescue shelter really shows why sympathy doesn't get you anywhere if you don't have the ability to follow through. She "saved" them by putting them in the same situation only removing the possibility of euthanasia. Even then if it's not euthanasia it's the chance of the dogs dying from stress or some other problem caused by the carelessness.
this woman is a horrible wife
That's typical
Shes a horrible owner too
If my husband said that to me then boldly repeated it to an outsider, that's all I'd need to hear.
I have rescued cats and dogs in Indonesia for 15 years, sometimes having up to 10 dogs and 15 cats or more at one time. NONE of them was EVER in a crate! I helped them heal (both physically and mentally) until they were ready for adoption and some had deep traumas, so they stayed with me. Of course being fully present for them 24/7 requests a lot of dedication, unconditional love, attention to each character, structure and energy but seeing them heal, come out of their shell, being carelessly happy and well integrated in a family or the pack is the greatest reward. There was never such chaos as in this home with only 4 dogs. poor animals ;o(
I'd be stressed too having to listen to her all day omg
Jesse, RUN, AND DO NOT STOP! Save yourself!
Lord knows what he ever saw in her. She's no prize...He's never around bc he can't stand those horrible dogs...I'd escape, too...maybe permanently...

"All family life is organized around the most damaged person in it" - Sigmund Freud
Even if the dogs weren't kept in cages, the stress from living with this level of human dysfunction will turn them into nervous wrecks. When Joanne says, "If he needs to go? He needs to go!" all I could think was, "Run, Jessie, run!"
@Lionforaday She didn’t take accountability for all the serious harm she caused and she somehow turned all the blame on Jessie. She neglects the dogs actual needs, but pretends like she’s saving them and acts like the victim. What a narcissistic b*tch.
It is FRIGHTENING she works / volunteers with animals .
Why did they get so many dogs from shelter? Didn’t the shelter people check out the living situation before?
A shelter dealing with an influx of animals all day and their care doesn’t have time to do home visits.
@@TTHeavensentI just reread your comment, and realized you're specifically talking about having the time to do home visits. Which, I can also understand that. But, with all that is at risk, there really is no excuse. They have volunteers. They always have volunteers, who are capable of doing home checks. With today's technology. No one even needs to leave the facility. Many shelters and rescues are having walk throughs being recorded by the potential owners, or now, doing it through FaceTime.
At the very least, doing thorough background checks, more than one interview to get a picture of what the home life will be like. And then getting references from friends and/or family members is the least that can be done. Without even just that. They could be sending these dogs off to owners like this woman, or even worse. The issue our shelters and rescues had in the past. We're people "adopting" dogs to be used as bait for dog fighting. This is a very common issue across the globe in many other shelters as well. Which is why my local shelters, and many others. Go thru such thorough checks before handing any dogs over.
She "rescued" them from a shelter just to put them in an even more stressful, miserable environment. They probably had more space in the shelter's kennels than they ever do in her home.
Dogs can just amplify relationship issues. This is a perfect example of human needs creating dog behavior problems. It's so interesting to watch people face their own feelings when trying to learn how to correct a dog's behaviors. Everyone should have to learn how to train a dog so they can learn better ways to relate to people.
Im curious what rescue these dogs were at. I foster with a rescue and we do home checks, talk about how they plan to train, dogs meet the resident dogs, etc. The moment someone says “I think training is cruel” it’s a no go.
Rescue four dogs then cram them in tiny cages all day 🤬 These dogs need rehoming, they deserve love and happy lives. Gorgeous dogs. Cruel selfish owner.
This Joanne is completely nuts!!
Love this!!!! I've been using this method with my rehabilitation dogs for years! Thank you for showing it perfectly 🥰 Keep up the great work 👍 ❤
This woman's voice is enough to grate on the nervous system; her poor husband having to tolerate her and her constant nagging. In my opinion, they have too many dogs: move to acreage.
Regarding her voice, I did have to turn the volume down some several times. I agree that they have way too many dogs.
Poor husband! Priorities are WAY OFF!
I was watching this video earlier this morning and unfortunately I was wearing headphones. It's been like , 8 hours and my head still hurts . No wonder everyone is stressed out . I feel so bad for the dogs and Jessie

God Bless You and the lives you touch!! 🙌 Maybe some how & someday you could help me & my furbaby. 🙏🤗
the nerve the girl has to make everything about her, like jessie even got medical problems, i can see why he couldnt bear staying in such a loud environment. AND THE FACT THAT THE GIRL SAID SHE DIDNT WANNA TRAIN HER DOGS WAS SO SHOCKING. like girl.
The stool when the film crew was there and it had never happened before shows she was already at the line and the added stress of the film, the other dogs loosing their poor minds crossed her threshold. A pittie mix that anxious is a mauling waiting to happen, then there is the outcome… will it be another dog or a person. The damage she has caused to these dogs in the name of “rescue” and “love” is MIND BLOWING!!!
I had rescue dogs for 30 years from all sorts of backgrounds, often cruelty, starvation had been involved. I always had 2 or 3 at a time. They were never kept in crates, and I always walked them at least twice a day, before I went to work, and as soon as I came home from work. They were left loose in the downstairs while I was at work, and had access to the large garden when I was at home. I know from my neighbours that they were quiet while I was at work. My son loved playing with them in the garden, throwing balls, sticks etc. I can honestly say that I never had a problem with any of my dogs, and they brought us so much pleasure, I was so thankful to have them. Friends visiting were not jumped on, they just lay down around us . I do think that the wife was not educated enough about dogs needs before she took in the dogs, and I think it is cruel to keep them in crates! I am sure the rescue kennels she got the dogs from would be horrified!
Hi, I have a rescue dog too, with a history of starvation - were yours obsessed (to a degree beyond the average dog) with food? If so, did you ever find a way to curb that obsession? I really wish my girl could develop a healthier relationship with food!
@@kwarra-an I feed with slow feeders, enrichment toys, and hand feeding. it slows them down but it doesn't help the obsession. the obsession over food will get better over time especially if you give the dog a place away from other animals to eat said food alone. right now he/she feels like the food is going to get stolen away or they won't get as much as everyone else gets. structure is about all I have. I've only been training dogs for three years, I've studied cases like this, but never been in contact. if you need further help I'd reach out to a professional trainer with a good reputation.
@@kwarra-an I had one dog, a German shepherd, that stands out , because he was very emaciated when I took him from the rescue kennels. They had been unable to get his weight up as he was jumping around so much in his run. He was aged about 11 years and had been kept in a yard all his life. I had 2 other dogs, but had to feed him separately as he was very defensive. I did cure him of that, by feeding him by hand, and every time he took food from me, praising him. The 2 other dogs were in the same room, but not able to get near him, they were trained to lie down. He realised they were no threat to him, and was eventually relaxed enough to be fed in the same room as them. And, of course, was not going to bite the hand that feeds him. He got used to the times he was going to be fed, and did not look for food, as he got to know the routine. I also had a walk-in pantry, so no food was accessible at any other time, except his meal-times! Not sure if it will work in your case, but good luck. 🙂
Jessie better RUN 🏃🏼💨 that woman is toxic no dog comes before my husband. How she treats him is horrible. Jessie you deserve better!
I don't understand why she insists on keeping them crated all damn day. She shouldn't have "rescued" them if that was going to be their life. That's not right.
She is the most ignorant person I've ever seen, I cannot believe she'd even be allowed to keep any animals. Her poor husband, I can't believe he's stuck around, you're worth more Jesse!
