Hey Lee~ I'm a speech therapist and one of the kiddos I work with, who has autism, absolutely LOVES dogs and we watch a lot of your videos as a starting point to initiate peer interaction. He will be over the moon being able to learn about the different types of dogs you have in these videos. Thank you for all you do! Sending love your way!
SLP here too!
And the healing (heeling 🤭) begins 💜
Awesome Kim
Well first of all this fella is a modern day "Dr Doolittle" and awe inspiring!.
.But ur not to bad urself!
...I live in Vegas,but in my previous life in the UK,I have 5 Sisters, well the Youngest(who is a Adult now) is Profoundly Autistic (if that's how u would describe her?)mostly "Non Verbal"& requires 24hr care& Supervision!
.. Fortunately she has always been pretty Healthy&taken care of by my family(in London)
Anyway I'm always inclined to give anyone who does ur kind of work a big 👍+ acknowledgment &thank u when they cross my path!!👍
Doggy Day Care Farm Trips is another great channel for dog lovers.
Why I watch this channel is because the owner loves each dog very much.
Belly is a farm guardian dog. They live out doors with livestock.
This fellow is amazing. His light just shines through!
Lucky dogs to have you and your love and patience for each one…
My dad recused an Anatolian Shepard. The dog had been shot (only a graze)and my dad found him. He named him “The Big Ugly” because he was in rough shape at the time. But Ugly was the sweetest guy and also was super submissive with my dad’s alpha female Chaser. Ugly was the best shepherd of the farm. He would tag along with Chaser the female. He did everything she wanted to do or go where she wanted to go. I think he was guarding her to be honest.
What a great story. That name “The Big Ugly” is such a Dad move. 😆
What a precious story ❤
Please don’t ever stop what you’re doing you’re an amazing person love watching your videos makes my day
I LOVE this idea of dedicating each vid for a biography of one dog at a time. I wanna hear all their stories and see what it is that makes them appear so happy to be part of 'Asher House'
Belly’s a sweet boy and it’s awesome that he guards you all so well.
1:58 When you say "Let's start with Belly," he stops and looks at you.😭 3:08 When you say he sometimes runs to you and cries, he stops following you, and watches as you keep walking. Like, "I can't believe you told them that, Dad."😆💙
Lee, you are heaven sent. I’m absolutely sure of it. The dog world really needed you and so many millions of people worldwide love you for what you are doing for the animals of this world, especially all those lucky dogs around Sacramento. I just wish we had a Lee Asher here in Queensland Australia. Sure, we have shelters but your shelter and especially you show those dogs so much love. God bless you.
You have definitely found your purpose in life. Thank you for educating humans on the importance of homing “rescues” and sharing the amount of exercise these wonderful creatures need .
I love these dog walks. So peaceful and fun.
Lee has hit the sweet spot. He shows some sad cases but makes having dogs look like so much fun. My son & I have discussed that we need to imitate that. Shelter pets r showcased in short bits on local news. Rocky Kanaka does a great job , like Lee, showing shelter dogs & shows how much they can do despite bad conditions. My son got his bachelor's in film & wants to see if he can find a way to film like Lee. ASPCA runs commercials all the time & its heartbreaking & hard 2 watch. But ads dont show good results. Plus Lee has learned to show fun videos people want to watch. My son is in Oregon & has volunteered at local shelter & Lee has given him great ideas. Everyone can't have a sanctuary but everyone can help shelters. He has been inspired by Lee's videos here's hoping we can catch that "lightening in a bottle"
my dog Wobbly was an Anatolian and I never had a more loyal or protective dog. He seemed to have 6th sense and was never wrong about people and getting him in from his spot in the garden was a pain in the ass. lol. I have ptsd from military service and he would watch over me while I slept. I miss him so much.
Hope you find another dog, they are truly great loyal friends.
Thank you for your service. ❤️🇨🇦
Thank you for your service.
@@macari72 thank you.
@@mmmmlllljohn thank you.
My favorite is Poppy. She is so cute. I love it when she runs and plays. She will crash and sleep wherever. I just love that pup.
Anatolian sheperds are excellent family dogs with children. They love children and are excellent baby sitters. My daughter has two of them and Russian Caucasian shepherd and they all are super family dogs and love guarding the children.
I remember you finding those lovely pups when you were going to pick up your parrot. Lol. You saved them, and belly has grown up to be a beautiful dog. It's lovely to see him strive. I look forward to watching all your videos about the breeds, and their characters. ❤️😍
What a beautiful sight it is to watch thirty gorgeous angels being liberated like this! Lee, you're a blessing to each and every one of them. 🙏❤️
I've said it before and I'll say it again. You, Mr. Asher, are a beautiful man, inside and out.
I love what you do with the dogs and how you take care of them. They are so blessed to have you as their doggie dad. ❤️❤❤❤❤
This🤩. The perfect example of the true richness of life.
I love that your doing this series, talking about individual dogs, it will help me to understand each breed!! I can't wait for the next,have a beautiful day,love ya too!!❤️🥰❤️
Hi to fabulous Lee & pack of wonderful doggies who love
to worship Lee. ❤ you

Agreed, it is a wonderful series to help us meet all of the dogs.
Glad to know you read the comments. Because I want you to know the joy you and your pack have brought into my life. Lee, you have the biggest heart I have seen. Since I was born (63) years ago, there has always been dogs in my life. As a matter of fact when I was an infant, my mother was in the kitchen cleaning up while I napped. We had 2 boxers, one was laying by my crib suddenly I went into convulsion, my fever shot up and I was shaking so hard the crib was shaking. The boxer, started barking and running into the kitchen and back to me. My mother came running, grabbed me, called the doctor and then jumped into the bathtub with me and got my temperature down. Dogs have always been the best thing God has gifted us with. We always had boxers, they are great with children. I had a Yorkie (Pablo Picasso) for 15 years, he was always there for me when I lost each one of my parents. When it was his time to go join my parents, my daughter had to get a group of friends to talk to me one night to convince me it was time. He had a stroke and was never the same, nor was I. Now I have a rescue she is lab and retriever mix Gracie and Chip who’s mother was a Yorkie shih tzu mix and father was full chihuahua. You can imagine what that mixture is like, 10 pounds of crazy love who happens to be on your CBD oil. Watching your love for all animals is the best thing I do every day, you restore my faith daily that there are people who still have hearts. With so much bad, you and your pack are the best thing to watch. When I retire if you need someone to just clean up after them, I’m your person. Because watching your love for all your pack, just makes me feel better about everything. Don’t ever stop, I talk about your videos and send and share with everyone I know. Sorry my comment has turned into a short story but I wanted you to know I feel very blessed that I found Asher House to watch. Always watching Cheryl
Hello 👋 Melissa
How are you doing today?
Cheryl spoke from her heart - I totally agree with her about You Being A Blessing I'm so very thankful that I found your You Tube videos - you are a part of my life now Lee, thanks for all your Love and Kindness to Animals and Humans - Love and Blessings Always
I love your story too. Thank you. Animals are truly amazing and forever give us such inspiration and free love.
Aww this was so nice to read and feel your love for the doggies in your life ❤
Isn’t Lee really an amazing person, whom God sent to earth to show how beautiful life is with animals in it👍💞💯
Well said 👏👏👏💐💐
Omg look at Mildred. She has come so far. Makes my heart feel so good. Thank u 4 everything u do. ❤️❤️
A year ago, someone dumped a puppy on our road and me being me, we ended up with him. lol We have a large fenced in yard and he shares it with our Mini Aussie Koda (who is alpha), and another dumped baby, Hollie (black mouth cur mix). Clyde is an Anatolian mix. He is very large, sweet, protective, and comes in the house to say hello then heads back outside. All I can say is whoever dumped him missed out on a lot of love! He keeps the mole population under control and is very protective with me (the only female in the family). Thank you for spotlighting this breed!
Bravo! We have 2 Anatolian Shepherds. Your description is spot on. Thay are at my feet at the moment but were out this morning chasing a fox away from the chickens. They are kind with our horses, pet pig, chickens and 6 tiny dogs(1 terrier and 5 Chihuahuas). Loyal, brave and protective. When introduced to strangers they are fine. Not so much if they are not introduced properly.
They sound perfectly beautiful. ❤️
Five chihuahuas that must be fun
Amen to the strangers part!
Hey Lee please do this series with all the dogs, I'm SO looking forward to it. I'm addicted to it and I love it so much. I can see each dog you describe as a distinctive human with a distinctive personality, but because 1 video is for 1 dog and you use a lot of words to explain, I know much further and more profound about them and it's incredible. Please keep on with the series and I love you and the pack. Wish you and the pack all the best.
Hello 👋 Ann
How are you doing
Belly is beautiful! I don't think I have ever seen an Antolian shepherd before! Gorgeous! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
What a beautiful video and story about Belly. Thank you for sharing all about the pack and their stories. It's really nice to see all the dogs being free and enjoying themselves. Have a lovely day 🐾🐾
Thank you for sharing about Belly! I never knew about this breed. We have a GSD and your comments about how Belly hears a car from far away made me laugh. My GSD is the same. I appreciate your enthusiasm for protective breeds of dogs and their innate abilities. Sometimes, our GSD’s obsession with patrolling and protecting us gets annoying, but you remind me to love her for what she was born to do! Thank you again, Lee!
Love the GSD, my last one was called Kayla, miss her every day 🐕🐾💜
GOD'S are my favourite breed. I grew up with a beautiful, magnificent short-haired lady called Carmen who i still miss to this day. She was irreplaceable.
We had two GSD and they are my favorite as well. I lost our Sabrina in 2019 and our father about 40 days later. Hardest time if my life. Sabrina was totally unexpected and u swear she died of a broken heart because we had to keep her separated. The 24/7 care ❤ company at the end of dads life told us we had to. And she just started losing weight. And died. I will have another dog someday. I'm positive of it.
I owned one in England(Soppy,a bit lazy,easy going,but a pretty decent guard Dog,when necessary)
And my Sister owned 4 long haired ones,which I looked after (At one point,which was certainly a pleasure&never a chore)
I have fond memories of taking 3 of them out on some very long "Hikes".. Great times which kept me Sane!.
My parents have a GSD and I do too. We joke that theirs is a failure 😂 my GSD is just like yours, incredibly loyal, protective, brave, and also the biggest goofball of a dog, but my dad used to call theirs a chicken shepherd bc shes scared of everything but people. They had a break in once, and you could see she tried to bring the intruder all her toys to throw 😂
Than you very much, Lee, for introducing your viewers to individual members of your pack. When the pack was half the size it is now, I felt that I knew the whole pack. Now that there’s 30 of them, don’t know the names, breeds, or personality of the second half. It made me feel distanced from them. Please keep posting more videos about the 10 or 15 newer members of the pack. Sending hugs to you and the entire pack.
I love to see that big pack running around. They're so freaking cute. You're an amazing person Lee. God bless you and all that you do for animals ☺️.
Exactly its the most natural thing to see , and what a beautiful location
My Anatolian is the most sensitive, protective dog I’ve ever had.
I love it! "What are we barking at?" 😂 I've seen that. it's so funny. Thanks for introducing us to Belly! I'm excited about meeting the rest of your pack. I can hardly wait!
Hello 👋 Carolyn
How are you doing today
Yes, we rescued a Anatolian Shepherd pup and she is definitely an alpha on our farm. She is super sweet to people and anything baby. She strategically marks our property line by dropping a great big poop and seems to help keep away coyotes. If predators enter the farm she is on them and runs them off. I love this breed. Thank you for highlighting rescuing Anatolian Shepherds. Sweet dogs but tough on predators!!! Always enjoy your videos 🙏🏾
Hi Lee, I am known as the chihuahua lady here in my hometown…. I rescued a chi/min pin mix who was found roaming the streets at 6 mos…. Now my poor girl looks like a delicate min pin, and has the exhaustive energy of a min pin, but her personality is pure chihuahua!!!! When I got her, she was pretty much full grown, but weighed in at 6 lbs….very thin! Now she is a whopping 8 lbs! She had my heart when she jumped into my wheelchair and put her front paws around my neck and started the wonderful chihuahua kisses! No dog can side eye the way quesa does! I’ve learned thru my 30 years of fostering, that if you have no expectations about a dog, they will end up being the best they can be…. It’s when you try to change their personalities, you have failed them. Keep up the good work! You hit the nail on the head with this one viDeo!
Yay Belly! I’m so glad you were rescued with your friend. What a great life you’ve found. Be safe on your patrols. 💕
I absolutely LOVE this idea! I find it so interesting to hear about the pups individually and learning about their own special personalities. Can't wait for the next one!
I used to work for UPS, and my absolute favorite dog on my route was Bob, a GSD Anatolian shepherd mix. He definitely took more after the Anatolian, always checking his yard but got SO excited when we came to deliver. He was so incredibly fluffy and handsome. He had a "brother" that was a great Dane named Sarge, who was quite literally the wimpiest giant dog I've ever met 😂 but he also loved his lovins from UPS. They had to get him a miniature horse sized blanket to fit him 😂😂
We have an anatolian rescue and he has been the absolute best boy. We live in an urban are, but we have three cats that he views as his flock. This is the most affectionate dog ever. He wants to be touching someone all the time, and despite being 100lbs, thinks he belongs in a lap. We’d love to eventually give him more space to roam free and maybe even watch over animals that aren’t cats, but it hasn’t been readily available to us yet.
Anatolians and Great Pyrenees are amazing family dogs. The perfect balance of loving and protective.They are often at shelters because they were good at their job. It's their job to patrol. It's their job to bark loudly.
My dear friend rescued a young male Anatolian Sheppard and he’s a gentle giant. I’m excited to hear more about the different breeds. Thank you for what you do Lee 🥰
My very large pit bull named "Z". I had an emergency work trip come up and had to make the uncomfortable decision to have him stay at a "pet hotel". While I was away, I'd call to check on him and was told he was lethargic and not eating (he was checked out and had no illnesses) so I rushed home. Needless to stay, straight out of the car, into the house and right to his door ... he patrolled the property, checked every nook & cranny inside & out, checked his toys, his bed, my bed and every room in the house, went around again & barked to let everyone know he was "on duty" then promptly sat on my lap for the next hour. He was bored and had no job or purpose at the pet hotel .... best boy ever!!
Lee, Your show is so addictive, I have to force myself to stop! But I'm learning so much from your shows about dogs that I never knew! And your humor, - so cute how you called the piglings. 🐷🐷
Dogs love nothing better than to go out on a pack adventure, even if their "pack" is just one kind and loving human. So many dogs exist in lonely hells where the only people they see are hateful and cruel. If only all hateful, cruel people would just disappear to another world, our world could be like the Asher House with everyone free, safe, loved, and enjoying their precious lives, with protectors like Lee, CeCe and Belly to keep everything wonderful.

As you were talking about protective breeds, we actually have a Romanian raven shepherd who was a rescue from Romania at 16 weeks old. He had the worst past over there and was thankfully found and brought over to the UK. He has lived with us since. He is now 4 years old. He is a very very big dog. He weighs 6 stone 9 currently but he's lost 2 stone and was just over 8 stone, which for the breed is about normal. They tend to go to 9 stone if not more. He is 5ft 8 on 2 legs and his body is thick, huge coat so he looks even bigger. He is the classic raven so jet black all over and has a small white patch on the under tail and a larger one on his chest. But everywhere else is black with very very dark colour eyes.
Naturally in Romania he would be out from birth in the mountains guarding livestock from birth to death with only his pack, and little or no human interaction. He is very very protective of his family, which is 2 adults, 6 kids and 13 cats and kittens at min. We have raised him with cats and kittens and small children and he treats everyone like they are his pack with no exceptions. He is very loyal and protective, he guards his house and whoever he is with all the time. He has a massive loud bark that can be heard up the road from our house and everyone knows if he barks that something is up. It's like a one dog neighbourhood watch. He's also super fast and has super fast reflexes, and is incredibly strong.
The flipside of that is he is soooooo affectionate with his family. He loves to play and mess around and has a box of his fav toys that he treats like they are the best things in the world. If he was Egyptian he would be buried with them😂. Sometimes he forgets he is a self appointed guard of the whole UK and when he plays he goes all out. Squeaky ice creams fly across the room so he can catch them. He loves football and is a stellar goal keeper. He can also dribble and kick the ball and pass it to people. He loves cuddles and when he sits on you your staying there 😂 I think he displays a lot of the anatolian traits and I just wanted to share for that reason. I've never seen a anatolian dog before so this has been a treat for me to watch and learn about them a little. It's amazing.
My big bear sends huge love for all that you do.
😊❤🐾💐
❤
Your giant "pup" sounds like a jewel! 🥰
I have learned so much from you by listening to your videos. As I approach a time in my life when a dog is in my not too distant future, you are helping to focus my attention to what I should look for so that I can make a good life for both a rescue pup and myself and help us to live our best and happiest lives. Thank you, Lee.
So glad you have chosen to highlight the breeds! Rescuers always struggle when someone thinks your foster is so cute but you know it’s not an appropriate match. Educate educate! Thanks Lee.
Belly is a lover - not a fighter ♥ He's always looking out for everybody else and loving every minute of it. Love your heart Mr. Asher.
This is a BRILLIANT idea Lee! I watch every single video you post, going back to the Dodo ones, and there are many I watch multiple times. So I am familiar with most of the dogs and their histories. But I've noticed a few new ones (new to me) lately and also some that are no longer there (and I'm not talking about the beautiful souls that have begun their journeys over the Rainbow Bridge 🌈 ) but perhaps were fosters or simply not on every walk. Can't wait to be introduced and learn more about everyone. Thank you for including us in this amazing and magnificent journey 💜
Thank you Lee for talking about each dog and their characteristics. Can’t wait for the next one. Have a great day!
I just inherited an Anatolian puppy when my SO died. Such a lovely, smart, independent and fun dog. He’s saved my life - in all this grief I have a bright light.
Hi Lee & Team Asher House, thanks for introducing the pack. I wish all animals were as fortunate as yours.
Hi Lee I watch your channel from England along with my 3 fur babies. I love the way you understand your pack ❤️👍🏴🇺🇸
This is great 👍 Belly sounds wonderful. Love hearing all about him and his personality 💙 looking forward to hearing about the pack!!! Also it was beautiful to see the joy on your face talking about your animals 💙💙💙 I know your heart has been hurting 😢🤗 have a great weekend 💕🙏
Thank you for emphasizing that Anatolians need to be able to do a job. They are smart and beautiful and get rehomed all too often becuase their original humans didn't get it. Happens to so many...
Also - Maeve is so little and precious. So very grateful that you brought her home.
Keep up the Good Work!!!! 🙏🐕 Dogs are Deserving in many ways. Helping People.
Thank you for all that you do and sharing your fur babies with us
Hello Franmags where are you from?
Thank you Lee and the explanation on one of your pups. I look forward to this series. You gave a great day and love you back. . .
I had a lovely Sar-Planonic, also a protection/ working breed quite similar to the Anatolian breeds, who died of old age five years ago. Huge, furry, so very protective, loyal and such a dear. I found her chained up without food or water, up in the mountains while hiking with my dog. After spending some time with her, feeding her, I knew I had to take her home. I got the chain off her, opened the back door and she ran to the car, jumped right in and waited for me. I’m sure she must have had a family who for what ever reason, left her. Sashi was a joyful, huge puppy. I miss her every day.
We have an Anatolian Shepherd / Lab Mix and she is very confident yet at 11 years old she is still our toddler. She is very loving yet demanding of attention in a way we can't resist her. She's very caring and would have made a great mother, she has raised a kitten who is now 4 and adores her. She loves everyone too but we know beyond a shadow of doubt if needed she would be very protective of all of us.
I love watching these dogs on their walks with Lee. It never gets old.
This is brilliant!!! Thank you! Can’t wait to see each one! ❤️🐾🐾🐾

How are you doing today?

@@pamcathcart8695 Where are you from?
You're so aware of the personalities of your dogs. You work at learning about every dog you have. Totally respect you for that.
You were at the right place at the right time when those people saw you and dropped those pups off. Belly was meant to be with you, Lee and the pack at Asher House! 🐾❤️🐾
Belly runs in circles to keep the pack together and protected.(Belly is a sort of a sheepdog) sheepdogs do that too. They just run around the people and the property to keep them together. So sweet🤩🐶❤
Looks like a crowd pleaser and a grand slam hit! Did you see the look on Belly's face when Lee first started talking about him? Belly definitely said, "Who, me?" Funny, for a while I couldn't figure out where Rosa came from. Then I saw an old video and realized she was one of the abandoned puppies.
I learn so much about all aspects of life through this gentle lovely man.
Belly is a watcher guardian. I love him from when you got him. Im
Drawn to Bellie, Rollie and Lucy first.
Hello 👋 Rae
How are you doing today?
I'm so so SO happy you've started this series about describing the dogs. Bellamy, one thing I'd like to add about him is that on walks he likes to be aware of where you are. He'll keep coming to be near you before trotting off. Also I've commented before that I noticed Bentley showing 'herding' tendencies. She likes to keep an eye on which dog is where. She also has a very calm energy.
I was very surprised to know that Bellamy is loud. I intuitively knew he would be submissive, but was happy to learn he has a loud bark. He seems like that child who sticks near the parents even when a little grown up.
Really looking forward to this series. Will the dogs' personalities match with my impression of them? Can't wait.
I love Callie... Because how can you not love a golden, and Bentley and Pom poms, and the Rocket sprocket Copper and Rollie the Pollie, and Bo. And all of them. We don't see Mugsy so much anymore. Did he bite you once? On the upper cheek?
Your new dog Clyde is physically the most beautiful... Even more than Loba.
Is he still doing this series? Would love to see more of this type of video but can't seem to find them
I’d be in for a three hour video 😊. I like these videos about each of their personalities. Thank you.
I adopted an Anatolian shepherd that was abandoned last year. To be honest I was not comfortable with the size and feared he would not do well in my pack but I am amazed as his protective nature and his happy easy to be. I love him to pieces and he has taught us a lot of kindness and service to the pack. He loves his puppy friend that I got after and protects her from the big guys. Spot on your description. I do put him in at least 4 hours at night or he barks at very far objects that are not a threat to our family so amazing senses bewilder us all the time.
I have lost 9 pups. I loved them all…….I decided to get adopt a new one……share the love ……
Look at the babies 😍 dog 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕 You have an amazingly Beautiful heart 💕
Thank you Lee! This is a great way to re-introduce your babies! I love each and every one of them too and am so danged proud of you! You are certainly following your chosen path of rescuer, healer, making sure all are loved and cared for in a proper manner. You have the Midas touch with animals; you are an angel and a hero and I can't thank you enough for what you're doing. We certainly need more empaths like you on our planet. I pray your doing this inspires folks to start a movement and save more animals in distress. God bless you Lee! Love ya much. Deep respect. Happy Friday to all.👵💖🐎🐕🐕
My daughter and her family have an Anatolian Shepherd. They studied her breed very diligently for 2+ years before bringing home their princess. Owning an Anatolian is a massive responsibility in order to raise a dog that has it's very particular and unique needs met. Responding correctly to their needs, their tantrums, their "I know best for the family" decisions is vital. Their princess is now 2 years old, 120+ pounds, and just a wonderful dog. They take great care to make sure that they are in charge, but in a non aggressive, gentle way. What works for other dogs, will never work for an Anatolian. You're either completely on board or you don't adopt.
Whenever there's a new video of the pack, I never forget to check where Bellamy is. Seeing him out and about with the rest of the pack makes me enjoy the video even more. ^_^
Love watching your videos , makes me feel happy and relaxed.
I am looking forward to getting to know the pack on an individual basis, great idea.👍🏽 Thanks for sharing, Valerie in Colorado
I remembered how Rosa and Belly were abandoned right in front of you. I’m so happy they are safe with you. Love them so much 😍❤️
Lee...we Love you...we Love the pups...we,LOVE ASHER HOUSE❤😊
Love learning about each dog! Do all of them!
I call it doggie dynamics! I work as a dog handler and groomer. You absolutely nailed it by talking about breed characteristics, play style, and prey drive . All of which are behaviors that are prevalent and unique to each of the different breeds. For example Dogs like Great Pyrenees are nocturnal, hounds howl, herding breeds Will herd and direct, scent and sight hounds are prey driven and we simply just have companion only dogs. Several Breeds such as the Anatolian, Malinois, Shepherds and many of the herding breeds need a job and if left to their own accord will create their own within the pack. I too have a love for animals and my passion and obsession is with Dogs! I admire all you do for these beautiful wonderful little beasts, you have so much love and compassion for them!! I have an amazing dog named EmmyLou she is an English American Bulldog.
My husband and I had an opportunity to adopt an Anatolian shepherd. We didn’t know much about them but fell in love with her. She was a pet. Her name was That h. She was a gorgeous puppy and we fell in love with her. Unfortunately, she was going to be a big girl After researching the breed, we knew we could not provide the right environment for her. We think of her often and hope she was adopted into the right family and environment.
Thank you for the attention on Belly. I love all your kiddos but sweet Belly really has a place in my heart. I’ve loved him since I first saw him in that abandoned crate during that crazy live. 🥰🥰🥰
Yes yes yes! This is exactly what I've always wanted you to do. I love hearing about each individual dog. Thank you so much!
Hello 👋 Laurie
How are you doing today?
Can't get enough of these profile videos! So fun to learn about each member of the pack. I remember the video when Belly and Rosa were left for you at a random road side. You are amazing! And thanks for sharing.
i love seeing your pack having such a wonderful life being who they are each created to be!!! My husband and I have had Great Pyrenees dogs (4 of them -- 2 at a time) who were all rescues. We love the breed soooo much! They were family members and were greatly loved!! Lots of work with the coats but they love with their whole being and I know would die protecting us if necessary. Thankfully, our neighbors did not mind the barking. :) Now that we are in our mid 70s, we can't give them as good a life as they deserve so we haven't rescued any more.
Hello 👋 Cyndy

I love what you do. I am always close to tears, to See what happens to So many dogs. Thank God, you Are there !! More people should act just a bit like you and the World would be a little bit better. Greets from Germany, Cologne
Just always so happy for you and your huge blessed family
What a great story on Belly , love watching all your fur babies, how fortunate they are to have you ,, look forward to more information,, hugs 🤗 Lee from Ottawa, Canada 🇨🇦
I have a feeling that your affinity towards protective dogs matches your world-view towards all animals in need 😊
You just described my Anatolian to tee.
This breed is extraordinary and instincively protective of children.
Mine saved a neighbors child from a huge snake.
Very independent.
Love this breed!
This is really interesting. I am a cat lady, scared of dogs but in learning about how the pack works and the attributes of the individual dogs in the pack, my fear is lessening. And I am really enjoying the antics and fun, the seeming mayhem yet mindfulness of each dog. Thanks for this, Lee. Blessings from Australia.
I opposite growing up cat scared me in neighborhood I always had dog even though I adore all animals when my last furpaw passed it took me 5years very tough I eventually started volunteering at shelter make a longer story much much much shorter I ended up with a meow meow just think I could have left this world not knowing a cat would have been a major tragedy now I have nothing but cats but I adore dogs would like to have one yesterday and I will again I'm having them through Lee right now👍🐾💛 THANK GOD its blessing & llamas alpacas pigs goats Macaw bird horses donkeys sheeps cows🤣🤣🤣😉,Thxs Lee🐾💞
I am so glad that u are taking the time to learn about dogs. They are SOOOWH LOVING. All they want to do is please you. That's what makes them happy. We don't deserve dogs.. It's so sad when I hear of someone afraid of dogs. Please please please after you feel more comfortable around them. Go to shelters and play with them. I guarantee you will end up with a doggy in your life. They are everything. We really don't deserve them. Bless...
My 3 year old nephew was deathly afraid of dogs. At a lakeside camp, a free roaming Golden Retriever headed towards him and my nephew froze in fear. The dog instantly stopped, got down on his belly and put his paw out to my nephew. The dogs owner assured my boy that the dog wanted to make friends with him and encouraged contact. With my brother by his side, my nephew patted the dog, eventually sat beside him, and they became best friends that day and spent every day together for the vacation week. Again, in the fall, at the school bus stop, a huge black Newfie came by on a leash. Nephew clung to me for dear life. This dog also got down on his belly and wiggled his way to my nephew for a pat. In no time my nephew would be upset if his giant black dog was not around to pat before the bus came. Dogs know and can be very compassionate. I hope you soon meet a pup that will steal your heart.
Another wonderful video
You are a kind man with a shepherds heart like David from the good book. God Bless you and your pack.
If Belly does in fact have Great Pyrenees in him, they are instinctively a roaming/guarding dog. They can travel 15 miles a day, patrolling their property. We have a 2 yr old male Pyrenees and he wants to please and protect. Beau can hear a mouse fart and he is ready to protect. I love my boy with my whole heart and he's my 95lb baby. He's a barker but that's his job.
I am so glad you are doing this series of videos! Can't wait to see more!
Please show us the dog when you're talking about him/her so we can connect the name with the dog. Love the biographies. ❤️
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Yes please. Nice to have you show us pics as they were growing up as well.
I'm so glad unlike other sanctuaries you rescue on a need basis and not for clickbait. Well done.
Belly sounds like my Sadie, Shepard heeler mix, she senses long before also and she howls and has her own “inside voice”, she’s very protective of her kitty cat brothers and sisters.
So much love for you
❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾🐾🙏🙏🙏
