Wait until you see what shifted to get him to break through and trust again 🥹 Please share as he's going to need a new family that really wants him. 🐶💪
Exactly, pets aren't cars. You don't trade them in
I wish oh God. Please let him get adopted. I want him. I still bonding with one. That I rescued.
Poor guy its heart breaking 😢 💔 he is so handsome 😍 if they adopted out of State I would take him...God Bless you for this 🙏
What's that about you not being able to sing!? That was lovely and it worked! ❤ He definitely dropped a barrier or two.
The beginning is frozen and I wanted to cry ❤no money thank you from my heart ♥️ and I’m going to start volunteering
UPDATE 12/27/23 - Casper was officially ADOPTED! He will be with a new family in time for the New Year. Congratulations, Casper!
This is wonderful news!
I so needed to see this! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I hope you have gone to a wonderful home Casper, what a beautiful boy. He looks like a big soft-hearted loving boy ❤ someone's lucky to have u ❤
I'm so glad to hear this! Happy New Year Casper🎉. I really hope it's better for him from now on ❤
Its really VERRRRYYY SUPER GOOD!
Thank goodness, thank you God!!
I’m always saddened and disgusted with people who basically throw away their dogs. He is a sweet dog
Me too. People who treat their dogs like clothes to be discarded it makes me cringe. I hope he finds a home worthy of him.
He's so hurt and in shock yet so much love in his heart. What did he go through before such a shoddy discard?
Some people don't deserv the unconditional love of a dog
Why, people throw their kids away as well.
Me too, but in some cases, there can be some really tragic stories behind that action.. So it's always best not to judge.
Good grief! I adopted a Dogo Argentino a month ago from a shelter. He was behaving EXACTLY the same way! That sad immobility, refused treats, wouldn’t make eye contact….wouldnt even stand up when I got him out of the pen, bellied down the ground and refused to take a step.
He was found in an abandoned house and brought to the shelter in county Louth (I’m in Ireland)
When he finally accepted that he was safe - he does exactly the same thing - leaning in, curling up on my lap - and licking my face.
I can’t believe it’s baked into the breed!
I’d never even heard of Dogo Argentino - and thought the shelter person was making things up to make him sound snazzy.
Murphy and I are inseparable, I love him dearly - and he’s the dog I’ve been waiting for all my life.
Keep up your great work!
Excellent! Happy happy!
I'm crying little tiny tears sipping.out for big ol boy.
@@pattifrey5838 me too!
I loved your words " he is the dog I have been waiting for my whole life" wonderful golden words...xxx
Wow. We too rescued a Dogo Pup. Poor baby was in foul conditions. Nervous. When we brought her home with our 6 yr old. Omg she was over the moon playful and knew she was in a loving safe home. She is also the most loving, snuggly, affectionate pup ever. She hugs...really. God Bless you & all others who sincerely care. 🐕 ❤
I've never seen so much sadness in a dog😢 He is paralyzed with anguish. He is gorgeous. He is exhausted. You are amazing.
FELUX...I'M SOOO WITH YOU. HARD TO WATCH. SO AWESOME CASPER -NOW WILL HAVE A NEW FAMILY THAT ADORES HIM.
Anguish i had it bad for 21 months -yes its exhausting
🤣
@@internetcensure5849 what is so funny
Nine years ago, I took in a dog that was scared like this. Today, she's a happy, healthy, playful companion. It's amazing to think back to where we started. She's the best dog I ever had.
It’s awesome isn’t it? Helping pups is the best!
That dog is forever grateful
Спасибо от всего сердца за Вашу доброту! Храни Вас Господь!
Just a note to Rocky, the “non-musician” - I think the singing helped! Caspar’s affect changed slightly and he seemed to relax a bit and even grow curious in response to that shift in the atmosphere. (He doesn’t care how good your voice is or whether you sing the same verse on repeat!) Loads of video evidence shows that animals of all kinds respond to music, and singing (or playing recorded music that’s soft, low, and soothing) might go a long way to ease the anxiety of animals in stressful situations such as sudden abandonment and adapting to the shelter. It might be worth considering using music regularly in the shelter environment.
I’m so glad to hear that this sweet, beautiful boy found a home. I hope his new family is worthy of him.
I have actually read animal shelters calm animals to the point they stop barking
😔He's so heartbroken & exhausted I've never seen dark bags under a dog's eyes in all my life.😢
🙏🏻💔
11:15Oh my heart!😢 *instant tears* God bless this precious angel.🐾
"We don't want him anymore."
That is so incredibly cold.😭
So glad he got adopted. He was suffering from a broken heart and separation anxiety. Thank you for all you do
Blessings ❤
You r awesome
❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🌞
Poor guy. We really don't deserve the love they freely give us. He was waiting for his people to come back, that's just heartbreaking. Those people are shameful cowards. So glad he's been adopted, hope his new family gives him the love he deserves.
This makes my heart happy to see his transformation. It just shows how much positive affirmation and love goes towards changing all of us!
He is precious. I am so happy he’s been adopted,
😭😭😭
I gasped out loud when I heard Alexa say his family said “ we don’t want him anymore. Don’t call us.” My heart sank. How could a family do that? They don’t deserve this beautiful doggie. I pray he gets adopted soon to a wonderful family.
A former friend of mine once told me she bought a chihuahua off a couple who had to give it up. She was away from home a lot. And the dog was used to company so ofcourse it freaked out. She told me that she lied to the former owners that she got pregnant and sent him back. I could not believe my ears. She had two cats that she treated with love and devotion!!
@@roddo1955 people are horrible..
I hope that family gets put on a list of people not allowed to adopt again. Not even helping him settle into the shelter is so callous and heartbreaking. I hope he goes to live with a wonderful family.
Vile people! How could you not want that beautiful, beautiful boy???
There's a lot of heartless cold people in the world. I'm just thankful they announced he has a new home.
Previous owners were obviously despicable, heartless fiends who don't deserve a great dog friend. They don't deserve any friends. To me, that person or group is an enemy. I hope they experience this kind of despair in their own lives. This is cruel and maddening. The more I think about it, the more angry I get.
Watching these beautiful people with compassion and big hearts gives me great hope in humanity. Decent people are larger than life. They erase the disgusting people and heal sadness and abuses. This is such a happy story.
OMG who else cried when he sang This Little Light to him? Heartbreakingly sweet.
He was adopted a year ago and he's a year and a half old. My suspicion is that the family adopted him as a small puppy and changed their minds when they saw how big he got. I'm glad he'll have a second chance to find a better home.
Yup. That's exactly my thoughts when I did the math. They got a puppy and didn't like that he grew up so much. Poor baby 😭
I don't know how long ago this was filmed, but if it any where close to Christmas my thought was, this is another family that promised their kids a new puppy, so the "dispose" of this one and buy them a puppy, especially since Casper was a puppy when they got him a year ago. So next year they will probably surrender that next dog and do it again.
People are so frustrating. No doubt they justified their actions so they don’t feel bad
Yeah exactly how dare they so cruel and selfish 🐾🐾
@@PettyPatty.TM. hes not even full grown... you have to add 10 ...15 more kgs....they are massive ....fulll of energy they need really long walks....not for everyone... hes better without his family they dont desserve a dog like him....
I just couldn’t stop crying while watching Casper just be frozen in time, waiting for the only family he has ever known to come back for him 😰 My heart just broke into a million tiny pieces until I saw him completely unfreeze & melt into the sweetest dog of love! I really hope his forever family finds him ASAP & he can forget about the family who didn’t deserve him. I also hope that family is blacklisted from EVER adopting another dog from ANY shelter ever again🤬
I totally agree with you Dogs in my opinion are a gift a gift from God to show us how much he loves us Dogs love you no matter what your circumstances are❤❤❤❤
Me too I cried.
I feel the same, however, we don't know the reason behind it. I would go through a bunch of 'what if this happend...' , 'or that happened'. personally every animal I see I want to keep and save, but I can't (unfortunately). Don't forget to spay or neuter your pets, (insert voice of Bob Barker)
Agreed. Casper's an angel. Dog spelled backward is God for a reason. Dogs and God have hearts that can be easily broken.
@@alaseaanarin432 While what you say may be true, the email and "don't call us" is pretty callous. A reason why they dropped off the dog would go a long way to finding him a new home. Does he not like other dogs? Kids? Cats? Does he tear up everything? Give us the reason(s) you dropped off this beautiful dog.
What an elegant dog. A real life marble sculpture. And sweet disposition.
The thing that makes the tears flow for me is seeing a dog’s resilience. It’s the moment they are willing to forgive the unforgivable and take a risk to trust and love again. They just want to love and be loved. Thank you, Rocky, for bridging that for them. What a beautiful channel. Also, your singing This Little Light of Mine was very sweet! :)
Casper wasn’t waiting for his family to come back, he was waiting on that lady 🥹 He’s a one human dog. Whoever adopts him will be a very lucky hooman. What a handsome, loyal, good boy. 💙😍
Thought the same thing - he was waiting for the one person who showed him true compassion in the few days he was there, then anyone else ever had his entire life 😢💔
I love animals and I will never agree with abandonment or abuse in any fashion or form,animals have a brain, heart mind and they feel pain, love, hunger, they cry they get sick and they cannot take care of themselves and should be treated like your own children who need you and that they hearts will break to pieces like any heart so I will say any owner of any pet please remember in this thing called life we sow seeds in different ways and in different places by our words,thoughts and deeds and as much as some of us would like to pretend we don't care or it's not our problem and we are moving on,moving on when you hurt others or abuse others, you have left gaps that you haven't filled and they will remain that way until you filled them properly by asking for forgiveness, saying you are really truly sorry and making sure you don't repeat these habits because if you are truly sorry you can move on in the way Almighty God has authorized or commanded.
The woman should adopt Casper since he's happy with her
I would if I were her but maybe she lives in a tiny apartment and can't. Casper just melts in her arms. @@joannsolis2683
Your absolutely correct
The pain he's feeling and the loss and hurt are all unbearable to watch.
GREAT NEWS! According to the channel, he came out of his sad shell and there're many people applying to adopt this not so little sweetheart. Also, he's not new to the shelter as they initially believed but was adopted out as a puppy and those sane AH returned him and refused any follow up phone calls to discuss as to why they just dumped him, but all is well, I wish I could adopt him, he's soooooo beautiful.
Really sad, dogs are so lovely.
My current doggo absolutely loved my Father. My Father came to live with me after he had received a terminal diagnosis of heart failure, and unfortunately for him due to other health issues, wasn't a candidate for a replacement. He spent a lot of time in a hospital and rehab facilities and then he finally said that he wanted to come home with me. I made that happen.
My doggo became his nurse. She would come to him first thing in the morning and check on him. Sitting by his side until he woke up, and she knew she couldn't jump in his lap like she could before, and would simply wait to lick his hand. Any time anyone was helping my Dad, she had to be right there watching. She would come to him several times a day and check on him. She would bring him her favorite toy just to have him throw it for her even just once. When he called for something, she would let out some barks to get peoples' attention, even if we were just in the next room.
My father passed away within a year, he fought very hard. After that happened, doggo came to lay down next to his chair, but sniffed all around it and looked around wondering where he was. After a while, she realized he wasn't going to be there, so she laid down next to that chair the whole day and night and she wouldn't eat. She absolutely loved him .
My heart just breaks for what that sweet boy Casper is going through, he looks like such a sweetheart! 17:42
@@lauriemansfield905 this dog have so much loyalty and love to give, I don't know how any animal owner, I won't say lover, can just abandon a family member. While we don't have all the facts and these are difficult times, this could have been done in a more humane and less hurtful way
It broke my heart. You could see it in his face.
The pain and sorrow in this poor boys eyes. Heartbreaking
He fell asleep when they left him...he's terrified to fall asleep again. So heartbreaking. I feel it too, just watching you on the video...that deep sadness. :(
The sadness in this dog’s face is so overwhelming! A dog with a broken heart 💔
Dogos are usually very loyal and get attached to family members.
@ake9910 ALL dogs do. So CRUEL to ABANDON your dog.😪
@@Thats_Right80We all cried with him. Thank you Rocky and his friends and staff, you all are doing good work.❤🐕
🤣
The shelters are full of big dogs, people can't afford to feed or care for them.
Every dog deserves a good person in their life. But not every person deserves a dog. I really hope he finds a loving family to live with.
Truth!
That is so right! Dogs are loyal beyond what we deserve. They love you like God does, unconditionally.
❤❤😢IT IS TRUE 😢😢😢😢😢 MY HEART IS AK ALWAYS BROKEN by ALL HUMAN S😢😢😢😢WHO HURT ANIMALS ALWAYS I CRY 😢
I totally agree. This poor, hurt animal deserves a lasting love where no one will ever hurt his spirit again. All life deserves to be loved and taken care of for life. This makes me want to cry for this abandoned dog. 😢 Please help him find hope again.
So sad to see him so scared and traumatized that he doesn't move an inch. To see him transition and cuddle made me cry. Great job.
He’s extremely beautiful. I think he’s been mistreated. I hope he becomes the happiest boy alive
I agree he has been miss treated most likely by aggressive man
@@elnoor44 or aggressive woman
I don't think I've ever seen a dog look so sad and dejected. It's almost like he's grief-stricken! And so unbelievably tired bless his heart! He just wants some love and cuddles!
He was separated and abandoned by his family. People need to remember that dogs NEED their families, just like humans do. Losing your whole life like that is the only ever going to cause immense pain and trauma.
Yes he is so sad. I think you are so special to try with them. Any comfort.
GOD BLESS YOU & ALL WHO SAVE THEM 💘💘💘💘💘💘💘 5:36
It isv not "almost like" - He IS (or was) grief stricken - dogs are part human....and many are more sensitive that many human beings,
@@jeanisdancingThe aren't part human, they're mammals with similar higher order thinking as us, along with the domestication of the species. It makes them more like us, but they aren't part human like a hybrid.
I own a Dogo and they are wonderful dog. They are not for everyone. They are high energy, stubborn and need a firm hand. If you work with them they will give you lots and lots of love. They have tons of personality. We rescued ours from a backyard breeder that lost a set of papers and was going to drown the puppies. I had to bottle feed a few weeks. I am so glad we took one. She is such a good girl.
I love how you always apologise to them for them ending up there and let them know it isn't their fault. Breaks my heart how many animals are in shelters and not a single one of them deserves it.
I'm fron Canada, and lost my dog last year. I wasn't feeling like I was ready to adopt another one right away, but I saw this video, and I felt my heart leap into my throat. I actually felt like looking into this to see if I could adopt Casper, so I signed up for the updates and I saw on the page that there are several requests in to adopt Casper. That makes me feel so good. I hope he finds a home with good people who will keep him until the end - he deserves no less.
I hope you find your new dog soon. ❤
You are so good-hearted to look into it. I am sure there is a sweet pup near you that need your love!
I stumbled upon your videos last week and over Christmas was telling my mom, I've been watching this channel Sitting with Dogs and she said, Oh I love that channel ❤
It breaks my heart. They are so scared, sad and sweet. And all deserve the love of a person or family that will be theirs forever. You can see how much you care. Those fur babies are lucky you came into their lives.
Thank you so much for giving them the chance to find the love they deserve.
Best wishes for a Happy New Year to you and all those for babies waiting for their person to find them
Rocky,
As someone who has had a practice evaluating and working with "aggressive" dogs, as well as having been the consulting behaviourist to several humane shelters, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the content you're putting out. You're showcasing how to work with dogs in a gentle and compassionate way. Thank you for doing this.
Please I need help and I’ve been turned away by so many trainers. I love my dog so much but he can be unpredictable with both people and our cat. It’s draining having a pet who can be aggressive. I’m not giving up on him but I’d love him to be less reactive.
@@playinglifeoneasy9226 why are yrainerd not working with him? Have you had any luck yet? Look online and do it yourself from all the info you find and also look up The Trust Technique. Good luck.
It breaks my heart to see these poor animals left behind… they don’t know what happened!!!
Watching him fight to stay awake is heartbreaking. He's so beautiful. How could they just dump him like that, without even an explanation?
He looks like he’s terrified but also about to burst into tears - if dogs could cry. He looks so sweet once Jennifer walks in - he melted into her!
Dogs do cry
@@leones87 Yes, they literally cry tears of heatrbreak, all animals do. Not sure why humans think they so special
😢
Dogs do cry. Mine’s being crying this morning because he’s missing his human sister. He’s been getting lots of cuddles in lieu.
I've seen dogs cry before.its so sad
Poor fella. His sadness is palpable. How can anyone abandon their pets ever???
Edited to add that Rocky is a true angel.
People can get in tricky situations you know, but some are just assholes. I'd rather live on the streets with my dog than give him up.
They truly never get over it. I have my mom’s dog and she misses her so much.
@mattfrenden1000
Exactly, I would too.
@MsSilentlightning
The more reason why City and State authorities should give money to shelters and free neutering, as well as enforce strict laws on breeders.
I have a friend who works with a shelter, and who also is a ranger who goes to pick up the dogs who are abused/abandoned. He told me recently that one really sad thing he's begun seeing is people rescuing a dog from a shelter, plastering their "heroism" all over social media, then return the dog to the shelter, presumably when they realise that pets need attention and care even when you're not filming!
I used to walk to work through a neighborhood where an older man would often be out walking his Dogo A. The man said he wasn't friendly to most people, but he let me pet him
They have this stillness, just like this pup, even when they have a happy home. That Dogo I knew would just stand motionless and chill while I petted him, but I was also aware he could flip quickly and give you the what-for, lol
They're fascinating. I'm glad this Dogo found a home ❤❤
(BTW: These are purebreeds that sell for between $1500 to $4000)
People always get rid of big dogs. They're too cheap to buy dog food. Big dogs are beautiful. So adorable 🥰
That poor boy was so shut down. Thank you for your patience and kindness.
I had tears in my eyes for Casper- how a Family could have him for a year & then just dump him like a bag of garbage !!! I hope he finds a loving family !!!
Casper has been adopted! Update on Rocky's website.
As someone with a weakness for dogs, I appreciate what you do for them. I have 22 dogs in my home right now and a lot of them are abandoned. I live out in the country and people seem to think that dumping a dog in the country is the best way since they won't find their way home. We'll, they've found their way to mine.
@@sygar7 Love you! 😘
@@sygar7 ❤ Beautiful person!
@@littleme3597 Times ten.
You’re very very brave sitting with strange dogs, not knowing anything about them. Hats off to you💕
HEART! Brains are nothing without compassion. This guy has it.
What a heartbreaking story! I’m glad his previous adopters dropped him off because they are awful and he deserves the best family and all the love in the world.
Agreed
Anyone who doesn't want a dog like this doesn't DESERVE a dog like this!
When I would take my dog to the vet, her whole little body would tremble. She was soooo frightened, so I started to sing little songs to her that I made up on the spot. They were songs about how little Daisy was so brave, and so strong, and so pretty, and she wasn't afraid of anything because she was the best dog in the whole world. It never failed to calm her down. The songs tune always differed from visit to visit, as did the words, but they were always about Daisy, the strong, beautiful, smart dog who was never afraid of anything. I highly recommend singing praises to your dog to encourage them and show them how much you love them.
He's beautiful, I love this dog
That poor baby. I am literally in tears watching this. I wish I could rescue them all. I hope he can find his forever home.
FOEVER HOME IS THE TERM THAT PUPPY MILLS ON CRAIGSLIST LIKES TO USE SO PLEASE STOP DOING THIS IT ENCOURAGES THEM ...
This baby needs healing x
With tears sincere
Compassion caring.. God bless you.
Me too
@@beckyculver5227praying
He is so devastatingly broken and abandoned. God Bless him.
I wish that people would realize that animals have a soul. They feel grief, sadness, abandonment, and most importantly, love, that is all they ask for. Dogs are man's best friend and they are there for you when your soul has been crushed. The least we can do is know this and how it feels when someone doesn't want you. Casper, I am so happy that you have a new family and that you will be loved unconditionally!
You are absolutely right. What a beautiful boy!
The freeze mode happens to people too that are terrified. It's heart braking to see this beautiful dog in this state.
heartbreaking
Happened to me 😔 things just got better March 2024 🙋
Heart breaking. They don't understand why they have been abandoned by the people they considered their pack and are somewhere they have never seen before. It must be terrifying.
Wonderful that he has been adopted. Thank you to everyone that helped him
Actually pretty good singing there, on key, not bad for a rookie!
Poor guy, he is so sweet. I can't believe anyone would ever give him up. I hope he will get adopted before Christmas. ❤
Thank you
@@rockykanakathank you Rocky we love you💙💜🐶🐶🐶we want him
Oh really?🫠🙃🫶 That would be so wonderful if Caspar got adopted right away. It broke my heart to see him frozen in shock and sadness about being abandoned just like that! He has so much to give. I wish nothing more than a loving caring forever home for him.
@@sambesisky5517 yes 🌲🐶🪽🙏
@@sambesisky5517Yes, I completely agree.
Poor guy. He feels abandoned and so sad. He looks so sweet. This is so depressing for this poor pup.
Aww, poor fella! I know how he feels. I was dumped after 28 years of marriage, left out, abandoned. No one, no creature, should ever go through that.
I'm sorry that happened to you Cindy. Divorce is hard. I'm divorced too. I hope you know that you matter and you are valuable. Even when it seems hopeless, life does get better. I wish you happiness.
Welcome in the club sister, after my second divorce i have strong issues on trusting people, lesser than less possible partners, I refuse to share a life because I was left in an economically disaster and if i must die for money, will it be by my own hands.
I've a sweet partner now but I've difficult to give him my trust.
I can't even fall asleep in his arms and he is a very good man, but as you know now, the last one's will pay for the errors of the previous ones
Me as well, my ex has ptsd and turned on me then turned my adult kids against me. I'm blessed that I am a child of God and I am loved by Jesus. My value is in Him and my heavenly home. I will pray for you.
What? This is about dogs needing help...air your dirty laundry somewhere else
@raffaella150 this channel is for dogs ot your personal problems!!! Jeez
You're a saint, brother! I teared up when he finally sat with you and licked your face.
I'm so glad he was adopted! He looks so tired and sad! And drooling! Poor baby! He will be happy now 😀
As a survivor of domestic abuse I totally understand the freeze reaction. Thank you so much for the work that you do. I pray this sweet angel finds a loving home soon.
Agreed! 🙏
The freeze is a fear response. If you don't notice me I'm safe.
shut up man
🙏🙏
I am so sorry for everything you went through.. sending hugs 🤗
His eyes hold so much sadness. ❤ He's beautiful.
Poor boy, ugh my heart hurts for him. So glad he was adopted!!
I absolutely melted when u sang to this beautiful boy!!!!
He looks thinner than a pure Dogo Argentino, although that's his natural build rather than emaciation -- he's been fed. Maybe a cross between a Dogo and something built a little lighter... Great Dane, or Dalmatian, or maybe even Greyhound. I'm so glad Jennifer found the combination to his lock! He's obviously such a sweetheart. His old family didn't deserve him. I really hope he finds a family soon that does.
Please adopt him Jennifer❤❤❤.
That would be so cool.
He's sooooo exhausted poor little man. Im curious to know did he have a sleep after your interactions and seeing Jennifer? I hope so.
Do you use or have you heard of the Bach Flower remedies, They are safe for animals. Very good for emotional states. ie trauma, grief etc.
Viszlas have that same build too.
@@kathrynwitte3398 Yeah, but the viszla color shows up in SO many of their mixed breeds that I wouldn't expect him to be pure white if he were part viszla.
Casper is absolutely gorgeous. I smiled when you started singing to him. My heart ached for this boy when he just stood still. So glad Jennifer was able to get him to open up. I have never understood why people abandon their dogs. This boy will find his new home full of love.
He probably peed on their precious carpet and he didn't understand what he did wrong. People like that should never have a dog. I have a cat and sometimes he scratches things. That behavior is instinctual and easily remedied with scratching posts. He never scratches the furniture anymore because he likes the posts better.
Happy he has a forever family...he deserves it..❤️
Thank you all so much for helping that beautiful boy!
The people who abandoned him in the shelter don't deserve him.. I hope he finds a better family soon!!
Wow his tail was tucked waaaay underneath him. What heartbreak. Im so glad he is cared for.
I'm so glad he got adopted.hes so beautiful poor baby
He broke me. I started crying. My rescue jumped in my lap. Dried my tears, but there was something about him. He deserved better
Even though they abandoned their dog, I'm so thankful they brought him to a shelter where he could be cared for and find a new loving family.
True, I just rescued a cat that people had indoors and moved leaving him outside in Utah for 6 months last year.
Agree
I’m a retired animal cop and those owners need a talking to because although they did the right thing by bringing him back, Casper is still left traumatized and broken.
You never really know what happened to his family, Divorce, death, illness, job or home loss. When these things happen, the pets go to the shelter. That's why we have pet adoptions . I'm sure the people who left him there were just as sad.
@@monkeysign123 They weren't sad. Did you hear the email they sent? Or watch the video? They didn't even surrender him properly. The best you can say about them was they brought him back to the shelter where they got them.
I would adopt him in a heartbeat 💓
My heart is broken in pieces watching this. May god forgive anyone who would hurt a beautiful angel like him by breaking his heart and abandoning him 💔
You are so right. My dog was a senior rescue from a puppymill, and she was the one who taught me about Fight, Flight, Freeze. She did what I termed the "fear statue" for three straight days. She would not move, potty, eat, drink water... nothing. Luckily my other dog helped her come out of her shell, and taught her what it meant to be a furry member of a loving family. Watching Casper in this state breaks my heart.
So sorry you and your dog had to go through that, but so glad she found a loving home.
A hero with a healthy ego is an ordinary person who does something extraordinary while welcoming the help of others. Rocky, both you and Jennifer are absolute heroes. The positive transformations you promote for loving, furry souls in need like Casper are remarkable 👏 Please accept this token of my appreciation for all you do and apply it toward Casper's care and adoption ❣
Thank you that’s very kind. Sometimes these vids make me look good but it’s really the team of volunteers and staff that help transform these amazing dogs
@@rockykanaka Yes, you are so right about it being a team effort. I sincerely apologize for not giving due recognition to all of the volunteers and staff who are critical to success in all the cases you highlight. Let me do that now and express my highest admiration of and love for all of you
What an attractive shelter! Great people working there. Some places are so underfunded. Rocky, you are an angel! Jennifer, you are a compassionate Dog Whisperer! Thank you, everyone.
Thank you for your donation and your kindness 🙏 🙏 God bless you 🙏 😊
❤️❤️❤️
What a beautiful, elegant, gentle, loving, and faithful dog!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would absolutely adopt him. I adoped a dogs who was frozen like this. He eventually warmed up and became the sweetest most devoted pup. I loved him for 14 yrs, his whole life. Best friend ever.
This broke me.. you can clearly see the pain and sadness in his eyes and on his face.. he doesn't know what he did wrong.. he is a guardian breed dogo and is faithfully waiting for his bonded humans to come collect him.. but they're not.. they betrayed him! SHAME on them.. COWARDS.. 😢❤️
That poor dog. He has been abandoned! Give him love!
Oh this is so sad😢 poor doggo looks devastated, crushed. Hurts my heart.❤
I love how he changed when Jennifer came in! Rocky you might need to start a new channel called “napping with dogs” so Casper can get some sleep!
And also me 😆
@@rockykanaka Yeah, it's all about YOU, now, Rocky?!?!? LOL. 🤣🙃 Casper is such a sweetie, and it was so nice to see him relax. I pray he gets the PAWFECT home before CHRISTmas!!! MERRY CHRISTmas, EVERYONE!!! Susan, Napoleon Missouri
Or “Singing With Dogs”. Maybe he’ll even get some Huskies or Sheps to howl in return?😮
I think he was waiting for Jennifer, not his family! poor fella
He seemed to change, soften, and become somewhat receptive when you were singing. I thought that you might have continued on from there toward touching him. 🎶
Every dog touches my heart, but "Casper" broke my heart. "His sadness is palpable" was the comment below. He acted so stoic. He was falling asleep while standing frozen. Anyone with a heart could see he just wanted to be loved and desperately needed a gentle touch. Thank you Jennifer; you are a dog whisperer with a special touch. And Rocky - you are a hero. Anyone can see your heart is full and so reactive to each dog. Thk u for all your good work and kindness.
Omg I would take that dog immediately how heartbreaking he needs a big hug
Such a handsome dog. Talk about being crushed.
December is a difficult month for me, as it is for many. My Shih Tzu had canine dementia and I had my vet euthanize him. This is my first Christmas without him. Today I saw Casper and he put a genuine smile on my face. I would drive down and adopt him myself if I had a yard. Thank you.
I am sorry for your loss. It's hard. I am missing my pups. Thank you for being a part of this.
Hugs.
I lost my staffi x in November, she was a rescue pup, and she was nearly 12 when we had to put her down from cancer, sending you hugs for your first Christmas without her, as it is mine too, dogs are just the best.
Sorry just saw he was a boy
So sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your love with your pet. And thank you for sharing your love with whatever pet you decide to share it with in the future. I'm sure your puppy would look down from heaven and be proud.
So heartbreaking. Proof that animals have true feelings like people.
What miserable excuse for humans could keep a dog a year then leave him in night drop followed by a message saying not to call them. I would love for that same fate to happen to them.
What a big lovable dog he is. He DESERVES the very best family to LOVE him.❤
Poor fella, I feel so sad for him, what a shame, hope he has a nice loving home soon.
Precious baby, you're safe now, that horrible, cruel, so called "family" did not deserve you!❤
Singing with Dogs should definitely be a thing ❤
Haha! Oh no. We would have to bring someone to replace me for sure 😆
🧧🎁 gifted 💖🎉 doggo 🦮 whisperer. 🥺🙏🕊️🌿💛🕯️ Thank you 😊👍
I knew singing was going to be the thing. ❤❤❤
@@rockykanaka Rocky, I beg to differ! You have a lovely, soothing voice - but more importantly, Casper, or any dog, doesn’t care if you’re not a professional or if you sing the same verse on repeat! He seemed to relax slightly in response to the change in the atmosphere and even grow a little curious. There’s loads of video evidence that animals respond to music, and that the right kind of music can reduce their stress. It might be worth considering incorporating soft, piped music into the shelter environment or having caretakers sing softly to dogs in distress. In my experience it can be quite effective. Thanks for sharing this beautiful boy’s story and for all you do to care and advocate for animals in need.
@@rockykanaka well I'm a singer and I found that you sang really good and fitting for the occasion. 😊 You definitely have more musicality than you think you have!
I hope his new family keep him forever and don't bring him back. This poor dog cannot go through another heartbreak. What a beauty!
Casper so reminded me of my Dog Knotty who I just lost last November. I'm so glad he was adopted 💗💓💞💕💖
Christmas present last year, dumped this year, poor wee mite. I really, really hope someone who recognises a dog is for life comes to get him. The depression in him was so palpable. [Side note: Rocky, my cat enjoyed your singing. :) ]
Thank you
I hope the family that abandoned this beautiful boy see this video and feel ALL OF THE GUILT IN THE WORLD.
If I wasn't thousands of miles away, I'd have taken him. Such a handsome and striking boy.
My first time commenting on one of your videos. Rocky, you are a truly amazing person and to mend a dog's broken heart is a true gift. You have persuaded me to rescue an older dog rather than go for a puppy when the time comes. These shelter dogs deserve the same amount of love in return for the love they share with us.
❤ Love is the kind gift from our God,that heals the receiver and the Cover ❤❤
compassionate ones realize that older abodoned animals, as well as devoted ones, whose owners have died, need a loving new home. My dear Friend trusted her Vet, to pick a loving home known by him, from among his Clients, that would love her Doggy. Her dog was adopted by Clients he trusted, before she died. Brave,loving, and wise.❤
What a Beautiful dog, so glad He’s adopted, thank You, ❤️🇨🇦
I'm crying for this gorgeous boy...what a gift your give these dogs.
That is how it was for our older Corso Vader. He was abused by his owners boyfriends and he became my husbands best friend. My husband is also very soft spoken, patient, consistent , kind, all of 5’3” but he is the boss lol is a very strong leader he also has kind of long gray hair with a Santa beard lol. Within 3 weeks he had our rescue Corso’s following his commands and not chasing the cat around the house( well the one that was running) we had two. One was too old to run so they didn’t even bother her. When we got our Corso’s they just showed up in our yard but we found their old owners and the boys had been missing from them for over a week. They weren’t looking for them. Their vet said they were monsters. They weren’t monsters they just didn’t have any socialization or love and respect I have 1000’s of pics and videos to show of how well they did coming from being locked up and trying to kill each other to I can take them anywhere and the kids can lay all over the youngest one who is 6. I do not believe that there is any furbaby that can not be rehabilitated in some way shape or form to suit their needs so they can live a good quality of life. Anyway this baby is a yr and a half old he deserves a whole family with no restrictions. He is not old enough to have been damaged beyond repair. 😢❤❤❤
I am crying my eyes out when he finally trust and receive the contact! I can barely speak. Rocky, you are a TREASURE. All you who care are! And reminding all the animals they are treasured!
I'm making up a story in my mind that he saw a woman he felt faithful loyal to get abused by a man in that family. That's why he won't stand down off his guard. What a good good boy 😢
Then when the woman comes in he realizes Rocky is safe because the woman is happy to be around Rocky!
I hope and pray his new adopted family are doing well with him and he with them, and that they are prepared to love him through whatever is locked inside of him that hurt. It's only febuary 2nd 2024 now. I'm going to keep looking around online for a dog named Casper who got adopted and see if we get a video somehow from the new family someday somewhere. I want to see that very much!!
Poor Baby 😢I’m so glad he got adopted he deserves a great loving family he looks so sad! I don’t know how people can just drop them off ❤🙏
Please keep us updated on Casper. He deserves a great outcome. Thanks for all you do Rocky.
What a beautiful boy! They didn't deserve him and I'm glad they brought him there, he WILL find a family who knows his worth. He's got such a gentle soul, he's going to be a wonderful addition to his forever home. Fingers crossed it won't take long. You're a good boy Casper!
