Likely to dissuade people from taking in wild animals wanting a pet. Only people licensed to care for such creatures should regularly be doing so. The fact that the license didn't include courses on how to do that job or proper resources to learn it defeats the whole point though, IMO.
You're an amazing man taking her in, I'm so glad your daughter found her. Your love for Hazel is beautiful and yes she is your daughter. God bless you both.❤
This is such a lovely comment, absolutely! What a kind and caring bloke and he's obviously passed it on to his daughter, who couldn't forget the little baby squirrel in need of help. What happened to Hazel's neurological issues, though? She seems bright, extremely physically coordinated. Hopefully she just grew out of them.
What a compassionate, gentle man this dad is! I hope his daughter carries these traits with her throughout her life. Thank you for saving Hazel and giving her a loving home. ❤
To put it simply, you, sir, are nothing short of amazing! Your kindness and perseverance to saving this adorable little squirrel? A true hero. Good on your daughter, too, for saving her.❤❤❤
The sweetness between these two is truly inspiring. She actually leaned into his kiss at the end of the video. She loves him as much as he loves her. What a beautiful bond.
It really saddens me how so many people don’t respect nor value all animals lives, because to just kill a innocent baby that was abandoned by its mother, is just disgusting and heartbreaking. Thank you so very much for saving that precious life!! ❤
I fear, this has nothing to do with not respecting life. But most people (me included) have no idea, how to care for a baby squirrel. And mistakes in care for very young animals mostly result in very painful death for the animal. And because the vet cannot know wether the individual is really into saving the baby animal or would lose interest after one or two sleepless nights, they try to prevent suffering by euthanizing the baby.
"I feel way more that it's a daughter and a father." Awwwwwww, I loved this sooooooo much!!!! Such a good soul. Thank you guys for rescuing her and adopting her into your family. ❤
Squirrels 🐿 are such amazing beautiful and extremely intelligent little fur babies. I myself have a squirrel 🐿 or we could say (she has me) 😂 My son rescued her too as a tiny baby because her mother didn’t want her, so we took care of her thinking 🤔 okay once she is old enough to survive on her own, that we would release her back into nature, well boy we’re we wrong. She decided many times that she wanted to stay, so today my chunky squirrel girl will be turning 5 years old and she’s absolutely amazing 😉
I rescued two of them at different times. One still comes around but doesn't let me hold her or cuddle her like we used to do. I guess that's the right thing. At least she still comes to visit.
Hazel is a companion and a fuzzy friend, and like the dad said, not a pet. He's truly a hero for going the extra mile and getting that license just to make sure Hazel got the care she needed 💜 She's a beautiful fur baby 🥹
Having a bond with an animal is a priceless thing... My dog is my baby, my best friend, my confident, and also my pillow... He means more to me than 99.9% of the humans in my life...
This reminds us that there are people who care and it's quite obvious that The reason why he helped is because he can and the squirrel deserves help and love and a home!!!
Almost everyone feels that way about their fur babies, they become part of the family. Most importantly you are her guardian, watching over this innocent soul to make sure she is loved for all her days, it's a good thing!💕👍
So many things to love: your daughter's compassion, your immediate attempts to find help, your rejection of the lame "help" you received, your dedication to fight for that little life, your commitment for the long haul (rehab school!!!), your willingness to revamp parts of your life for Hazel's needs, and the deep, pure love that you have wrapped around Hazel from day one.
Oh my word. How amazing. What a wonderful man and the fact that he made such a huge effort to help this little animal. Gives me faith that such wonderful people exist. The squirrel is super cute but the love and care invested is so beautiful. Love love love
This level of care - physical, emotional, spiritual - _IS_ parental! This man sacrificed everything to save the life of this orphaned creature ☮️ Beautiful
When I was about 10 years old I found a new born squirrel on our front porch. I took it to my mother and she raised it. Sha was absolutely awesome. Mother taught her several tricks over the years. Back then there were no laws about keeping wild life s pets but I'm sure if it were today she would not have been deemed releasable. The whole family had an awesome relationship with Max and we all loved spending time with her, playing, cuddling, watching tv, napping etc. She was a gift and I'm glad I found her that day.
How precious she is. She came to the perfect family to help, love and understand her. She knows what a great dad she has. And he clearly knows how very special she is.
Whoever told her "we don't have space and we can't give you advice because you're not licensed so the animal should be put down" should never hold a job again.
It's all legalese, CYA stuff, probably. Maybe the law prevents them from giving advice to unlicensed rescuers? You, me, and the 25 upvoters have no clue if constraints were in place over the vets decisions. Should learn about the laws in place first before calling for someone to be fired from every job in existence, which is fairly asinine anyway on principle.
Oftentimes, animal-lovers are v upset/sad when rescuers seek help from rehabbers n vets, only to be shoo off with COLD responses, euthanasia being the most common shoo-off statement. So, in order for such people to NOT cause others to "misunderstand" their "plight" which leads to tension in the community of animal-respecting n -loving people, the former should explain themselves, and maybe even offer some SOUND and HELPFUL advice to the rescuers in general, rather than to just keep mute about their valid "constraints" (ie. if they honestly DO have). I believe with effective communication, people will understand every situation much better, and hopefully, issues may be more effectively resolved as a result.
@@spencergwin9454with respect that's nonsense. Laws and restrictions should never get in the way of basic compassion. The moment it does than whatever excuses you make for doing it go down the toilet
YOU are equally amazing, Sir. Thank you for also being "One in a Million". Divine Intervention was at play. God knew you (and your sweet daughter) were the ones He selected for this task.
She likes being on your head because she knows how loving you are! She trusts you 100%. You have a huge heart for sweet, defenseless, innocent animals and you’re raising your daughter to be a wonderful human being just like you! 😊❤️🙏
Squirrels are really smart. There was a Squirrel, that would scratch on my door. Would open my door and throw bread out. The squirrel would take off with the food. It was very intelligent.
Thank you for caring for this beautiful animal. They’re both smart and loving. Thank you for not promoting them as pets. But there are other animals that can be domesticated. You’re my favorite type of people: KIND!
What an incredible human being!! To go through so much, out of the purest kindness of heart, is amazing. And his story is not for his own credit but to show this precious creature’s ability to thrive in the right environment 🥰❤️
Por Dios que ser tan tierno al igual que los ciervos.He quedado maravillada con esas hermosas criaturas al ser tan agradecidas de los humanos por salvarlas.Donde vivo no hay estos animalitos, por eso no conocia sus conductas.Protejanlas y respetenlas!!🙏
You made me cry 😢what a heartless beautiful man you are and the beauty you have shown your daughter !! Thank you 🙏 I’m sure you won’t have the time to read this but GOD BLESS YOU YOUR DAUGHTER AND OF COURSE SWEET HAZEL THANK U SOOO MUCH ❤
Wow, that's dedication and love. Your daughter bringing the baby squirrel home and you accepting the baby is the most loving thing. Many blessings to you and your family. Hazel is right where she belongs.🫶🫶
You are her DAD. Most people have no clue how hard it is to re-hab a squirrel. Most of the newborns that are abandoned don’t survive with humans. You did an amazing job with her. It’s very disheartening to hear that no one would help you when you needed it. Hopefully if anyone ever finds themselves in the same position they would be able to call you and get some guidance.
This is a special dude. No matter how tame Hazel seems, she will never be considered a pet. She is a wild animal even though she can't live as one due to medical reasons. It's a beautiful relationship that most people will not experience so, we'll have to settle for living vicariously through these people.
I'm glad you saved her when no one else would. Good Job! The vets wouldn't take her because they weren't licensed to treat wildlife, not because you weren't licensed, they lied. You needed one so you could rehab her. Our only vet here in Joplin who was wildlife licensed just closed down now we have no one. Squirrels like opossums are dime a dozen and most places won't bother with them. I had a opossum in a wire cage in my spare room for 3 winter months while treating her gash in her side with just peroxide because no one would take her. I named her stumpy because she didn't have a tail. She lived under my house for 5 years before she passed away. I have one of her great great grand kids still living under my house 🙂
Hazel is very lucky to have her life saved by you. ALL creatures on this planet matter, even that adorable sweet little squirrel. Hope shelives a long happy life 😊❤
What a great story ❤❤❤ and it was smart to add dont go outside and get your own squirrel. Although I have seen a few squirrel videos on here and they all are just as heart warming, they were all abandoned babies so I would say if you find one like that obviously dont just look the other way.
You have given so much to Hazel. Not only her life, but YOUR heart. What a blessing you have been to her. May God bless you for your amazing love for Hazel.
The world needs more people like you who truly appreciate how lucky we are to have these animals in our lives and we are the ones who are blessed but everything you did for her is amazing and just want to thank you x
She's absolutely beautiful. Taking that license exam really is some next level determination. My deepest respect.
Absolutely 💯

Licence exam what pathetic rubbish
@@rm71991 Your point being?
@@TheRealGSmithDon't encourage people like that. They troll to cause trouble.

Squirrels are amazing. Most people have no clue how much personality they have.
I have a few of them that i can call from the tree in front of my house and they'll come sit in my lap and eat. They are definitely characters, lol.
GOD BLESS 🙏 these people for adopting these beautiful animals!!
AWESOME CUTENESS LIL SQUIRREL
His daughter knew she could count on him. He taught her to love animals.
The slo mos of her twirling and jumping are incredible. You are a lovely person for committing so completely to Hazel's care.
It really saddens me how so many people don’t respect nor value all animals lives, because to just kill a innocent baby that was abandoned by its mother, is just disgusting and heartbreaking. Thank you so very much for saving that precious life!! ❤
People don’t even respect nor value human life
@@scottw7990wonder if such people also don't value nor respect their own lives? Or simply because such people are speciesists? 🤔

Peak Good Dad energy. His daughter finds an animal in need, his first response is to take them in, start doing the research, etc.
Love, and the blood, sweat and tears required for us to support and protect it, that’s all that matters.
Omg. How freaking cute is that. You were so lucky to have found each other. I would have done exactly the same.
She is a family member and I'm betting she will far outlive a normal squirrel life span. Thank you for your kindness young man.
