Kailee Beach a dog is a commitment till the end of their life. If they were moving they should’ve gotten a place that’ll accept dogs. I know it’s hard to find but it is possible. One of my parents friend had to find a house that accepted 20 dogs that she rescued from the streets and if she could do it they could with one dog
My current property I rent was sold to a new owner. After our lease was up the pet policy changed. Thank God we were able to keep our cat. But I can see there could be a situation with our elderly neighbors. If they still had their cat they would have been in the same position as Casey's owners.
I live in a crappy city and literally everyone has a nice rich car but live in a shitty apartment with a big dog but I never see them take their dog out 🙄 Sadly my mom is one of those people but I live with my dad
It's Not that hard to find a pet friendly place. I can understand financial reasons, but still think that it can be fixed and keep the dog. I moved a LOT and never failed to find a rental , and had a 160 pound Bullmastiff once, too.
Mind-boggling. And she says it happens a lot. I just can't get my head around it. I could understand if the owner passed away, but folks just drop off a dog they've had for 14 years! It's better than putting him out on a road somewhere, or chained/locked up to starve to death. But abandoning a family pet anywhere after 14 years...
It may be they were ill, had to move houses, were not healthy enough to look after them- the fact is people don't know the details, and they need to stop judging.
They guys fell out of a cloud.. Proud of myself this week.. Dumped my 5 year boyfriend (Narcisisst) and rescued two abused dogs.. They are my life now...Love and Light to these two wonderful people..
Joylaine Good for you !!! Dumped the 5 year narcissist & got 2 dogs... 💓😊💌👍. I know, I was married to a narcissist for a very long time, and I hear ya !!! 😊
@dritan tahiraj yes,You're right. But life situations can drastically change. Rather than leave the dog on the streets,or even worse,it's better to give him to a shelter. America is a crazy place to get ill,and very easy to loose everything.
@@debrabaron1909 but it does happen & op said they "don't give a f what the reason is". If someone falls ill, ends up on the streets, or loses everything & can't afford an animal's medical care (2020 was a perfect example of quickly that can happen) then what? I have a dog with an autoimmune disease. If he doesn't have his meds, his skin & the pain is comparable to someone with glaucoma. The bills are no joke....So if my business went under or something happened to where I couldn't care for him anymore, should I keep him anyways & let him suffer because according to a lot of people, there's never a good reason? I understand there are people who discard their animals as if they're material objects, but making blanket statements like OP did, is the epitome of ignorance.
I cried when watching this, because she must be wishing, yearning, begging in her mind for them to come back, and even when she's adopted the majority of her life was spent with another owner, and she must be wanting them back so much, thinking about what happened. It's sad.
@Work hard Play harder!! who said she was old and sick? its sad, but sometimes people need to give up their animals with their pets best interest in mind. if that is the reason they gave her up, of course I would be angry. but I have had to give up animals before because of reasons that were out of my control, and it sucks just as much for us as it does for them. at least I know they are out there living a good life.
I feel the same way about my cats. I had one that lived to be 19. He was with me through really dark times in my life. Including when we had to live in my car for a week. He just snuggled my lap the whole time, I felt like he was telling me everything will be ok. And we got through it. I wouldn't of turned that cat into the shelter for any reason...
There was a time I was so poor. My cat got fleas and I barely ate that month. Took my baby to a vet immediately. He had the best care. I had Ramen. I am fortunately in a better situation now. I am even able to foster. But I am glad these people surrendered her. If they could do that... it is better she is with someone else. So glad this fellow grabbed her!
I have nothing but contempt for anyone who can live with a dog for 14 years, then just give it up to a shelter when it becomes inconvenient. I love this couple for caring about these senior dogs. :)
In general I agree, but always remember there are legitimate reasons for having to give up a dog. I'm not saying that's what happened here tho. They did say that the family moved and couldn't afford to take her with them (either by paying for a pet friendly apartment or paying a pet fee). Now if they just moved for the hell of it then absolutely their fault but that isn't usually the case. Maybe they couldn't afford their current home, or maybe that had to move for a job either because they lost their old one or they're being offered more money. A big pay bump can change a families life completely, is it worth it to give up on giving your child a better future and potentially escaping poverty for the sake of a dog at the end of it's life. Us dog lovers may think so but most regular people won't. Again I'm not at all saying any of this happened, just giving examples of what could've been going on. There are plenty of other reason people give up dogs such as. Ill health, either physically or mentally. Either one can make looking after a dog impossible. Being unable to cope, not everyone can look after a dog (hence why one can end up in a crate for 14 years), if your in over your head giving up the dog is the right thing to do. Poverty, If you can barely afford to feed your kids how can you feed a dog. It's not fair to let it go hungry. I expect a lot of dogs are gonna end up in shelters for this very reason over the next 2 years, Which is terrible because shelters will be receiving less money and so inevitably there'll be a massive uptick in euthanizing and it's really no ones fault. Again I'm in no way saying that this family were definitely in the right, we don't know their situation. I'm just saying that whilst many who give up dogs are POS (and if they are wouldn't you want them to give up the dog) but definitely not all. Gotta remember that you can't judge someone without knowing their situation.
@@MsMarco6 You give some good examples there and yes there absolutely are legitimate reasons as to why people become unable to take care of a pet; what I’m referring to are cases where people give up a pet entirely for selfish reasons. It’s “inconvenient”, in other words. 😊
@@MsMarco6 definitely agree that there are legit reasons, but you should never get a pet if you don't know if you can provide for it ALWAYS, meaning if you know you don't get enough income to also take care of the pet then just don't get one, but let's think about the bright side, at least they didn't put the healthy dog down and gave it to a shelter instead.
That's what is always so horrifying to imagine. I was taken away from my birth mother at 7 years old, I remember it well. I was in a fucked up foster home for 2 years before being adopted. People were able to EXPLAIN TO ME what was going on. You can't do that with a pet. It's far worse. In my opinion.
I cannot even imagine after having a dog 14 years dropping it off because you're moving, it's incomprehensible, it's horrific,it's unkind it's unacceptable.
Maybe they lost their jobs, and had to downsize to a smaller home that didn’t allow pets. Do you really think a family, that cared for a dog for 14 years, would really just give her up on a “whim”? They were likely forced to surrender her to the shelter.
Also Cupcakes I can’t speak for these people, however, there are people who simply don’t want to “deal” with the unique needs/veterinary care (even if they can afford the care) that many senior canines require.
IF YOURE MOVING AND HAVE PETS, FIND A PET FRIENDLY PLACE- LOTS OF THEM OUT THERE- I WOULD GO HOMELESS BEFORE I GAVE MY FAMILY UP TO A SHELTER. HOW HEARTBREAKING 14YRS AND TO JUST DUMP HER?! BLESS YOU LEE FOR HELPING HER! DOGS ARE A FOREVER COMMITMENT!!!
if you had the choice between being homeless with young children and a dog, or having a house and no dog, and you chose homeless, they'd take your kids from you for being an irresponsible parent. it's a terrible decision to have to make, but sometimes people do have to make those choices.
@@isthatrubble good thing I'm responsible enough to not have kids or want them. I'd set an example when you commit to a pet its a lifelong one... there is always a choice especially now a days to have a place to live that excepts pets just got to put in the effort and might not be the first place you wanted but no reason to give them up due to housing ever. don't get them if your not going to have them for their whole life...
OMG ! How sad ! To have a dog for 14 years and give it up. I always had many animals. No vacations ect because of the animals. I would live in a box with them before I abandon them. I hope and pray people stop ditching and giving up these poor animals . They will forever look for their owners. I could never be a foster. I would want to keep them all . I hate crates. Why have dogs exactly. So kind of you both . I hope you keep both . Omg you both have a heart of gold. Thank God for kind people like yourselves.
I had to make that decision, not only for my senior dog, but also for my older horse and 12 paraqeets, due to a divorce, no place of my own/ no money and my ex couldn't care for him allone because of his work. Sometimes common sense has to rule over sentimental animal love. Because in their best intersts letting go was the best I could do, for all of them found new homes( 2006). Miss them still every day, but they are all over the 🌈Rainbowbridge 🤗🇳🇱
@@Divi333. I agree. I think after 14 years, chances are her owners were incredibly attached, but though I am not sure how it is in the US, in Australia it is incredibly difficult AND expensive to even find a rental property that will accept dogs. Of course I feel they should have kept her if they could, but I can understand why they may have felt they had to surrender her.
@@natashawatkins5651 Cool. Good luck. Dogs are my favourite animal, but since I live in an apartment in Brisbane I am unable to have one. Even cats are difficult to find properties that will accept them. I grew up in Papakura (Auckland). And one thing (amongst many) NZ has over Australia is you do not have to worry about snakes killing your dog.
@Junior Mudd ok boomer. If you end up on the streets with your kid, guess what? Your kid is NOT going with you. He/She is being put in a foster home by Child services. BUT again, it is not difficult to find a rental property to accept kids, whilst it is very difficult AND expensive to find one that accepts dogs OR cats. And let me tell you something, as someone who was a bloody streetkid, in a nation with much better safety nets than America, living on the streets is NOT fun as a teen, and will be even worse as an older adult.
I expect the previous owner was heartbroken to give her up, they had her for 14 whole years so they must have loved and cared for her. We don't know the circumstances, they said they moved, it might well have been to an old people's care home for dementia who knows?? Sometimes giving up something is for love. By the way I live in Great Britain what's a pet policy?
They said pet deposit in the video… Basically it’s where an apartment complex/landlord charges a non-refundable fee, usually $500, and sometimes they also charge monthly pet rent per pet which can range from $25/month for a cat and maybe $50/month for a dog. I’ve always just snuck my two cats in with me 🤫 😝
To the former owners: shame on you. If you move to a place that doesn’t allow dogs, then look for a place that does. This was your fur baby, there is no excuse why you should have surrendered her. 😠
@@bowlnow824 Don't say that. What if hard times took over and they would much rather care for their kids then their dog, so they put it in a shelter instead of putting it down? 14 yrs! Obviously it was hard! God bless you, just please consider every situation. 😊
How can a human being dump a family member after 14 years? Obviously they have no heart. This breaks my heart and makes me mad. And leaving a poor tiny dog in a crate for 22 hours a day? Thank you, God, for giving us Angels that foster.
Right? Moving (and even dying) are NOT excuses for your animal to end up in a shelter. have back up plans. Make sure there are people you trust who agree to care for the dog if anything happens to you
Vicki, there in fact are people, parents, who don't give a sh*t about their own children and neglect and abuse them and are cold and indifferent. Never mind such people easily giving up an 'annoying' old dog. That's just humans for you. There are good humans for sure, but sadly many bad too
You all sound like naive children. Keeping a dog for 14 years obviously means they loved her. You don’t know their situation. If it was in California it’s likely they couldn’t afford where they were living and had to move elsewhere but couldn’t afford to keep the dog. They did the responsible thing of bringing the dog to shelter and not abandoning her on the street so be grateful for that.
Everyone is talking about the 14 year dog, which I understand But what about the chihuahua that spent most of her life in a crate because they’re owners chose not to raise her properly Like how?!?
Both of them deserve love but the bigger dog will probably have a harder time when looking for a home. There may come a time when a dog has to be carried after all. Like mine was, unable to walk downstairs anymore or jump into a car.
Who keeps a dog in a crate all the time? What is WRONG with people? And in God's name, how can you abandon a dog you have had for 14 years? The old one looks like she has PTSD!
Same happened to my rescue. She didn’t even know to pee on grass. It took me over a year to get her potty trained because she didn’t even know how to alert since no one ever seemed to care. She also never drinks from a bowl. It is apparent she was never provided water. She is also been abused because she is deadly afraid of sticks like the swiffer. My poor Yorkie mix. I rescued her from the US (internship) and brought her home to Germany. My family went into debt so I could have her papers and intl transport not in cargo. I’ve had her for 4 yrs now. That was the best money spent ever.
i am 50+ and live in Australia I've never seen a dog crate in anybody's home nor have i seen a dog chained up, you guys need what we have, no not a dog law but a housing law,all Australian homes must be fenced on 3 sides with a min 6ft fence
Oh how I love that idea we save money for all kind of things even when we don't have much giving a dog a better life and not being in a crate or on a leash all the time it's such a beautiful thing!!!!! 🐕🐕💕
We have a crate but our new puppy was use to one with her Mommy Daddy and siblings she goes in when she wants it's not locked unless I'm gone to the store or errands and that's only to keep her from getting in to trouble. We will get her a bed to replace the crate once she's a little older for her "safe space". She's only 3 months old right now. We have 5 dogs most are rescues from the shelter including a Cheweenie. They have full reign of our house no boundaries.. I love my dogs they are my life hubby's too. They sleep with us have a big back yard and are well taken care of Vet visits often for nails and shots/yearly Vet visit. I'm blessed to be able to have so many. Great Dane/Lab, Cheweenie, Dotson, Jack Russell Terrier and now Siberian Husky/Cocker Spaniel mix. If God made anything better he kept it in heaven. Anna In Ohio
I've had two senior dogs at two different times that just showed up in my life as strays . I gave them a home and loved each of them till their passing. One for 8yrs. the other for 3. They were the sweetest old girls. I miss them sometimes. RIP Daisy and Trixie . 😔💕
God bless you George B .. Daisy & Trixie are safe over the Rainbow Bridge, as is my beautiful rescued girl *** SONNET *** We will meet them again when it is our time to go to Heaven. For now I know my sweet SONNET walks in spirit beside me 🐶🥰❣️
I have a 16 yr old dog and her mother lived to be 19. I have been in situations where I was flat broke and couldn't afford deposits. Anytime I moved, my dog went with me! How on earth could anyone give up a family member of 14 yrs is beyond me. Or leave a dog in a crate for 22 hrs a day. Thank god for people like you.
i'm glad to see you really help these dogs especially the older dogs who have had their lives turned upside down. i can't fathom how someone could just walk out of their pets life when they need them more then anything as they age. keep up the great work.
I have a rescue sitting on my lap right now. She was surrendered to a high kill shelter at five years old. I have only had her for two months and can’t imagine my life without her.
Thank you for choosing to rescue - especially from a high kill shelter. Chances are that you saved your faithful friend's life. Wishing you both all the very best for your future together x
This is such a nice story. Giving this pup love at such an old age is wonderful. I love nice stories of kindness. I do the same. I have fosterd over 30 animals and saved. Everthing from tiny turtles to birds. Even a bald eagle. I now have twin calico rescue kitties. So thank you again🐶😺😺😇
Lee, you and your wife are absolutely amazing! I love what you guys do! I do not have a house big enough for a crew like you two have, but I do have 2 rescue dogs and 5 rescue cats. They are the best. I lost my husband to cancer December 30, lost my job on March 31, and had to quarantine due to Covid-19. I don’t know how I would have survived had it not been for my fur babies. Thank you for saving as many lives as you do. 😁❤️🌈🐶😻
One of my neighbors looks like a Hell's Angels. 6ft5in. Built like a house. Shaved head. Steel toe boots. People literally cross the street when they see him coming. Every other word that comes out of his mouth is an Ef bomb. Super rough around the edges. Awkward with people He teaches special needs kids He also feeds and cares for all the feral cats in our complex (we have a lot). He's "the pussycat guy"
My boy is 14 years young! I am grateful for everyday we have together. I was hospitalized for 5 weeks and he was depressed and confused while my folks cared for him. For weeks after he would cry and bark when I would leave the house for fear I was not returning. This poor girl is so sad and confused. I am so happy she will get a "real" family!
I should watch this every day for the smile it put on my face. And I am a crazy old cat lady! There are some beautiful people in the world, thank you to this pair. Adopt, dont shop.
Your pet is a family member, period. I would go through hell and high water for my cats. I would get a second job or work extra shifts whatever it would take to move them with me. 14 years of bonding and then to just give them up like that. Sad :/
Just can’t see myself giving up a pet after 14 years. I just wouldn’t move. I am looking for a new condo and the main thing I’m looking for is a little backyard space for my cat. If it doesn’t have one I simply won’t get it.
@Work hard Play harder!! calm yo ass down u don't know what these ppl going through like she said they probably couldn't afford the dog no more probably loss there home and couldn't keep him it a lot reasons..not everyone can live in a fairytale world like you
My god how could you leave that little baby in a crate like that. That just breaks my heart. I have a tea cup chihuahua and I could never IMAGINE doing that to him. We need more people like this who really care and that want to make a difference , it’s nice to see ❤️
Mel Boon honestly if I was going to Foster a dog that was already 14 years old I would just adopt her. Unfortunately she doesn't have that much time left, you might as well just keep her so she doesn't have to keep adapting to new people, and probably wondering if she is doing something wrong the whole time in the process.
I hope you have a long and healthy life and a strong relationship with each other as a couple so you can be happy and keep sharing your happiness with these babies. Thanks for all your efforts
Yeah, you're a good one, Mr Asher. You make the world a better place just being you. I'm so so comforted that this lovely, gentle, pupper had the softest landing possible after such a tragedy as losing her family at such an old age. Thank you for saving her. Thank you thank you thank you!
I love this couple! Such kind hearted beautiful souls. It breaks my heart to know how often people abandon their pets as soon as they get older. Thank you so much for giving these dogs a second chance at a happy life. I'm really inspired by you both❤
Your the best, I volunteer at my local shelter and I see this alot. Owners taking and surrendering thier dogs after years of them being with them, it is so heartbreaking. Your an angel💖
Having 2 dogs myself & losing my 3rd dog of 15yrs to cancer just 3yrs ago, I can't imagine what I wouldn't sell or do or give away to bring my animals with me. It breaks my heart for the dog & I cannot imagine the trauma they must be processing. You can literally see it in their eyes. I hope videos like this will open hearts & minds to senior adoption 💯💕✌️
On arrival K.C. was like "Dang, there's as many dogs here as there were at the shelter"! Thanks for fostering K.C. in her traumatic hour of need. I'm not allowed pets where I live, so I've signed up as a volunteer at the nearest shelter. Lifelong lover of dogs and cats, it's going to be a blast. Cheers!!
after 14 years, i cant imagine giving up on such a sweet soul. my dog died no so long ago, seems like yesterday. I would give anything for one more day with him. anything. some people dont deserve the unconditional love of a furry friend.
The couple is the most affectionate people I have seen as an advocate for dogs! And they really do it at home, and NOT just for the camera. So happy older dogs are being highlighted because they need as much love if not more than the younger dogs. Again Mahalo (thank you in Hawaiian) from Hawaii! Oh keep up the great work!
I cried watching this, Lee you have a big heart, we need more of u two in this world. Pearlie and KC enjoy being with this beautiful people. God bless you always!❤🙏
Yep. Our family feels this way too! We are military and have taken our pets all over!! We've had a cat from kitten to age 19 when she passed. She's been in 5 states and Europe. Our dogs have been 3 states. We have greyhounds now, rescued from the tracks in Florida and Texas.
I had to watch it twice. As my daughters say, "This is so wholesome!" It made me so happy to see you two taking in Casey and Pearl and how happy the dogs seemed, how chill your dogs at home were when greeting the new dogs, allowing Casey and Pearl to so easily fit in. Thank you for being awesome humans!
HOW CAN ANYONE HAVE A DOG FOR 14 YEARS THEN JUST DUMP HER?! Poor dog can’t possibly understand that kind of rejection. Lee is awesome, really nice shelter too.
Mr. Lee -- I love seeing the happiness and gratitude in the dogs whom you rescue. But even more, I love seeing you filled with joy as you pour out your love and friendship upon these wonderful dogs. You are a very special man!
I need to know what Mr. Lee feeds his dogs? I love this guy and everything he does for all of these dogs. He is so devoted to changing their lives and getting them out of shelters and into loving furever homes. Thanks for everything you do!!! 💚
it’s really sad to see how low-income pet owners are impacted by skyrocketing real estate prices. I know we wouldn’t be able to afford the pet deposit, we’re lucky enough to have a letter qualifying our pet as an ESA.
I've just discovered your channel and I can honestly say I've fallen in love with what you do. I'm in the middle of a third lockdown in England and it's started to take it's toll. Watching your videos has given me a new sense of JOY again. Thank you you so much for what you do and sharing it. I haven't got time to take dogs in the way you do but I will be looking in to helping out at an animal sanctuary. You have inspired this in me. I can't find a word that says how amazing I think what you are doing is!!!! Thank you so much for what you are doing and sharing🤗🤗🤗
We have a 2 year old bulldog and then we adopted a six year old female bulldog that was retiring from breeding. She is so sweet and starved for attention. She was not used to being a pet just housed. She has medical issues we're over coming and she's had surgery on both eyes but doing better. She's happy and loves to play and loves toys and food! So happy we have them both. So grateful we found her.
I adopted a 14 year old dog. He’s 19 now and going strong !
You're an angel!😇🤗
You are such an amazing person!!! Few would even adopt a dog older than 5 years!!
WOW!!!
Emily Swanson, You ROCK!!
WOW really thanks for update. Love these guys....
Oops I thought u meant this one. Ur awesome to have adopted a senior dog. GOD BLESS
My dog passed away when he was 11 years old. I would give anything to get him back. I can't believe people can give up their child after 14 years.
eiko hori they probably couldn’t care for her or something happened in their life.

I hear ya, my pug is 13 and couldn't do it. But you just never know the whole story. Regardless, it's heartbreaking.
I've got a cat whose 15. Hes so limited because of his movements, I couldn't imagine giving him up since he doesn't have his full life yet.
Can't even imagine. Having a dog in a crate its whole life, same thing.
Angers me people can afford new phone, cars,even the expense to move but not the pet deposit..
It's a lie, obviously.
Yeah. They were probably just saying that as an excuse. They just didn't want to deal with the medical issues that come with older dogs. 😞

14 years together and then they just leave him. Heartless, i could never leave family behind.
It's Not that hard to find a pet friendly place. I can understand financial reasons, but still think that it can be fixed and keep the dog. I moved a LOT and never failed to find a rental , and had a 160 pound Bullmastiff once, too.

How can anyone abandon adog you own for 14 years , when they need you the most you get rid of them? How can anyone break a heart just like that.
Mind-boggling. And she says it happens a lot. I just can't get my head around it. I could understand if the owner passed away, but folks just drop off a dog they've had for 14 years!
It's better than putting him out on a road somewhere, or chained/locked up to starve to death. But abandoning a family pet anywhere after 14 years...

The same people who leave their grandparents at a nursing home.
@dritan tahiraj yes,You're right. But life situations can drastically change. Rather than leave the dog on the streets,or even worse,it's better to give him to a shelter. America is a crazy place to get ill,and very easy to loose everything.
People who want a pet to stay in a crate or on a pillow. Really just need to buy a piece of Driftwood seriously!

@Work hard Play harder!! who said she was old and sick? its sad, but sometimes people need to give up their animals with their pets best interest in mind. if that is the reason they gave her up, of course I would be angry. but I have had to give up animals before because of reasons that were out of my control, and it sucks just as much for us as it does for them. at least I know they are out there living a good life.
Moriah Parkinson I could never it broke my heart hearing that
Brings tears to my eyes
My dog has been better to me than a lot of people, that is why he is sleeping next to me in my bed right now!
Same! They deserve the world
My dog always sleeps with me!
Us too, right between my wife and I; we had to go to a king size bed. We love Roxie.
My dog is to she a small dog to and omg how can people just give them up sad 💔🇬🇧
I feel the same way about my cats. I had one that lived to be 19. He was with me through really dark times in my life. Including when we had to live in my car for a week. He just snuggled my lap the whole time, I felt like he was telling me everything will be ok.
And we got through it. I wouldn't of turned that cat into the shelter for any reason...
There was a time I was so poor. My cat got fleas and I barely ate that month. Took my baby to a vet immediately. He had the best care. I had Ramen. I am fortunately in a better situation now. I am even able to foster.
But I am glad these people surrendered her. If they could do that... it is better she is with someone else. So glad this fellow grabbed her!
I have nothing but contempt for anyone who can live with a dog for 14 years, then just give it up to a shelter when it becomes inconvenient. I love this couple for caring about these senior dogs. :)
Agree!
Absolutely agree! Shame on them!!!
In general I agree, but always remember there are legitimate reasons for having to give up a dog. I'm not saying that's what happened here tho.
They did say that the family moved and couldn't afford to take her with them (either by paying for a pet friendly apartment or paying a pet fee). Now if they just moved for the hell of it then absolutely their fault but that isn't usually the case. Maybe they couldn't afford their current home, or maybe that had to move for a job either because they lost their old one or they're being offered more money. A big pay bump can change a families life completely, is it worth it to give up on giving your child a better future and potentially escaping poverty for the sake of a dog at the end of it's life. Us dog lovers may think so but most regular people won't.
Again I'm not at all saying any of this happened, just giving examples of what could've been going on. There are plenty of other reason people give up dogs such as.
Ill health, either physically or mentally. Either one can make looking after a dog impossible.
Being unable to cope, not everyone can look after a dog (hence why one can end up in a crate for 14 years), if your in over your head giving up the dog is the right thing to do.
Poverty, If you can barely afford to feed your kids how can you feed a dog. It's not fair to let it go hungry. I expect a lot of dogs are gonna end up in shelters for this very reason over the next 2 years, Which is terrible because shelters will be receiving less money and so inevitably there'll be a massive uptick in euthanizing and it's really no ones fault.
Again I'm in no way saying that this family were definitely in the right, we don't know their situation.
I'm just saying that whilst many who give up dogs are POS (and if they are wouldn't you want them to give up the dog) but definitely not all.
Gotta remember that you can't judge someone without knowing their situation.
@@MsMarco6 You give some good examples there and yes there absolutely are legitimate reasons as to why people become unable to take care of a pet; what I’m referring to are cases where people give up a pet entirely for selfish reasons. It’s “inconvenient”, in other words. 😊
@@MsMarco6 definitely agree that there are legit reasons, but you should never get a pet if you don't know if you can provide for it ALWAYS, meaning if you know you don't get enough income to also take care of the pet then just don't get one, but let's think about the bright side, at least they didn't put the healthy dog down and gave it to a shelter instead.
The poor old girl looks so confused, cant imagine whats going thru her mind.
That's what is always so horrifying to imagine. I was taken away from my birth mother at 7 years old, I remember it well. I was in a fucked up foster home for 2 years before being adopted. People were able to EXPLAIN TO ME what was going on. You can't do that with a pet. It's far worse. In my opinion.
She truly does poor baby 😢. Hope she is feeling better ❤️
She's about to have the best last years of her life.
@@lamar9331 Good point.
Hopefully her mindset is moving forward always. She deserves it
ive been homeless and didnt give any of my 6 pets up i moved to motel to stay wirh them.
INSPIRATIONAL story
Melissa Moats her owner moved. You never know their situation to why they couldn’t keep her.
Peace on the motel&glad u posted your truth
That's YOU.....
Hope you have everything you want ever in life by the morning!
I cannot even imagine after having a dog 14 years dropping it off because you're moving, it's incomprehensible, it's horrific,it's unkind it's unacceptable.
you dont know the circumstances so dont judge...
Pepper1188 Exactly. I went through a divorce, lost my house, and moved 3,000 miles from CA to PA. My dogs were with me every step of the way.
Maybe they lost their jobs, and had to downsize to a smaller home that didn’t allow pets. Do you really think a family, that cared for a dog for 14 years, would really just give her up on a “whim”? They were likely forced to surrender her to the shelter.
Also Cupcakes I can’t speak for these people, however, there are people who simply don’t want to “deal” with the unique needs/veterinary care (even if they can afford the care) that many senior canines require.
Or one is a stinking crate for a million yeats
IF YOURE MOVING AND HAVE PETS, FIND A PET FRIENDLY PLACE- LOTS OF THEM OUT THERE- I WOULD GO HOMELESS BEFORE I GAVE MY FAMILY UP TO A SHELTER. HOW HEARTBREAKING 14YRS AND TO JUST DUMP HER?! BLESS YOU LEE FOR HELPING HER! DOGS ARE A FOREVER COMMITMENT!!!
if you had the choice between being homeless with young children and a dog, or having a house and no dog, and you chose homeless, they'd take your kids from you for being an irresponsible parent. it's a terrible decision to have to make, but sometimes people do have to make those choices.
Then don't have children of you can't handle both. Or just never get a pet if they are going to be last choice.
@@Idomanaio it only takes one health crisis to drag a stable family into poverty. no one does it for *fun*
more and more landlords are refusing to allow pets anywhere and unfortunately people don't always have a choice. it's terrible :/
@@isthatrubble good thing I'm responsible enough to not have kids or want them. I'd set an example when you commit to a pet its a lifelong one... there is always a choice especially now a days to have a place to live that excepts pets just got to put in the effort and might not be the first place you wanted but no reason to give them up due to housing ever. don't get them if your not going to have them for their whole life...
Pearly looked up at Lee while he was driving - she knew her life was changed for the better - for good. ❤️🐕
Humans throw away their human elders so this doesn’t surprise me.
So so agree, several applauds to Your statement with a standing ovation 👍👌👏👏👏@ Baba Booie
Baba Booie and babies...
@@jask4968 No pity there, if they can't feed them they shouldn't breed them.
And abort their unborn children
@Patricia Engelsiepen
I'd take an aborted pregnancy over a mistreated child any day.
OMG ! How sad ! To have a dog for 14 years and give it up.
I always had many animals.
No vacations ect because of the animals.
I would live in a box with them before I abandon them.
I hope and pray people stop ditching and giving up these poor animals .
They will forever look for their owners.
I could never be a foster.
I would want to keep them all .
I hate crates.
Why have dogs exactly.
So kind of you both . I hope you keep both .
Omg you both have a heart of gold. Thank God for kind people like yourselves.
Sydney already foster failed with pearl! I follow her on instagram divineontheroad
Jane Irish her owner moved. You never know their situation to why they couldn’t keep her.
@@kaileebeach I been in many not good situations driving for hours or renting a dump to keep my pet.
U speak the truth 💯👊
I had to make that decision, not only for my senior dog, but also for my older horse and 12 paraqeets, due to a divorce, no place of my own/ no money and my ex couldn't care for him allone because of his work. Sometimes common sense has to rule over sentimental animal love. Because in their best intersts letting go was the best I could do, for all of them found new homes( 2006). Miss them still every day, but they are all over the 🌈Rainbowbridge 🤗🇳🇱
Can’t afford the pet deposit after fourteen years? What a pant load. How could anyone do this? These foster people are saints
MezzoMamma1 You never know people’s financial situation. So you can’t judge them.
@@Divi333. I agree. I think after 14 years, chances are her owners were incredibly attached, but though I am not sure how it is in the US, in Australia it is incredibly difficult AND expensive to even find a rental property that will accept dogs. Of course I feel they should have kept her if they could, but I can understand why they may have felt they had to surrender her.
@@glenbe4026 same in New Zealand we are waiting to buy a house next year then we will adopt our fur babies! ❤️👍
@@natashawatkins5651 Cool. Good luck. Dogs are my favourite animal, but since I live in an apartment in Brisbane I am unable to have one. Even cats are difficult to find properties that will accept them. I grew up in Papakura (Auckland). And one thing (amongst many) NZ has over Australia is you do not have to worry about snakes killing your dog.
@Junior Mudd ok boomer. If you end up on the streets with your kid, guess what? Your kid is NOT going with you. He/She is being put in a foster home by Child services. BUT again, it is not difficult to find a rental property to accept kids, whilst it is very difficult AND expensive to find one that accepts dogs OR cats. And let me tell you something, as someone who was a bloody streetkid, in a nation with much better safety nets than America, living on the streets is NOT fun as a teen, and will be even worse as an older adult.
My dog is the same age I could never give him up I would fight for mine
I expect the previous owner was heartbroken to give her up, they had her for 14 whole years so they must have loved and cared for her. We don't know the circumstances, they said they moved, it might well have been to an old people's care home for dementia who knows?? Sometimes giving up something is for love. By the way I live in Great Britain what's a pet policy?
They said pet deposit in the video… Basically it’s where an apartment complex/landlord charges a non-refundable fee, usually $500, and sometimes they also charge monthly pet rent per pet which can range from $25/month for a cat and maybe $50/month for a dog. I’ve always just snuck my two cats in with me 🤫 😝
To the former owners: shame on you. If you move to a place that doesn’t allow dogs, then look for a place that does. This was your fur baby, there is no excuse why you should have surrendered her. 😠
Very well said!!So true!!
Willow76ny Surrendered is a kind word. The accurate word is *abandoned* her. 💔
There is a special place in hell for them.
@@bowlnow824 Don't say that. What if hard times took over and they would much rather care for their kids then their dog, so they put it in a shelter instead of putting it down? 14 yrs! Obviously it was hard! God bless you, just please consider every situation. 😊
Nessa P OH ONE OF YOU IDIOTS, JUST BECAUSE A DOG NIPS SOMEONE IT HAS TO BE PUT IN A SHELTER
How can a human being dump a family member after 14 years? Obviously they have no heart. This breaks my heart and makes me mad. And leaving a poor tiny dog in a crate for 22 hours a day? Thank you, God, for giving us Angels that foster.
Right? Moving (and even dying) are NOT excuses for your animal to end up in a shelter. have back up plans. Make sure there are people you trust who agree to care for the dog if anything happens to you
Vicki, there in fact are people, parents, who don't give a sh*t about their own children and neglect and abuse them and are cold and indifferent. Never mind such people easily giving up an 'annoying' old dog. That's just humans for you. There are good humans for sure, but sadly many bad too
You all sound like naive children. Keeping a dog for 14 years obviously means they loved her. You don’t know their situation. If it was in California it’s likely they couldn’t afford where they were living and had to move elsewhere but couldn’t afford to keep the dog. They did the responsible thing of bringing the dog to shelter and not abandoning her on the street so be grateful for that.
@@NuancedSkeptic You are cold-hearted. I hope you don't have any pets. If you do, they deserve better.
@@Bess1201 Yes. People who can care less about the lives of HUMAN babies lives
Everyone is talking about the 14 year dog, which I understand
But what about the chihuahua that spent most of her life in a crate because they’re owners chose not to raise her properly
Like how?!?
Both of them deserve love but the bigger dog will probably have a harder time when looking for a home. There may come a time when a dog has to be carried after all. Like mine was, unable to walk downstairs anymore or jump into a car.
It's abuse to leave a dog caged 24/7, pure & simple.
Who keeps a dog in a crate all the time? What is WRONG with people? And in God's name, how can you abandon a dog you have had for 14 years? The old one looks like she has PTSD!
@@sarahholland1375 Absolutely, those people belong in jail!!! Made my blood pressure boil just hearing that!!
Same happened to my rescue. She didn’t even know to pee on grass. It took me over a year to get her potty trained because she didn’t even know how to alert since no one ever seemed to care. She also never drinks from a bowl. It is apparent she was never provided water. She is also been abused because she is deadly afraid of sticks like the swiffer. My poor Yorkie mix. I rescued her from the US (internship) and brought her home to Germany. My family went into debt so I could have her papers and intl transport not in cargo. I’ve had her for 4 yrs now. That was the best money spent ever.
i am 50+ and live in Australia I've never seen a dog crate in anybody's home nor have i seen a dog chained up, you guys need what we have, no not a dog law but a housing law,all Australian homes must be fenced on 3 sides with a min 6ft fence
Oh how I love that idea we save money for all kind of things even when we don't have much giving a dog a better life and not being in a crate or on a leash all the time it's such a beautiful thing!!!!! 🐕🐕💕
We have a crate but our new puppy was use to one with her Mommy Daddy and siblings she goes in when she wants it's not locked unless I'm gone to the store or errands and that's only to keep her from getting in to trouble. We will get her a bed to replace the crate once she's a little older for her "safe space". She's only 3 months old right now. We have 5 dogs most are rescues from the shelter including a Cheweenie. They have full reign of our house no boundaries.. I love my dogs they are my life hubby's too. They sleep with us have a big back yard and are well taken care of Vet visits often for nails and shots/yearly Vet visit. I'm blessed to be able to have so many. Great Dane/Lab, Cheweenie, Dotson, Jack Russell Terrier and now Siberian Husky/Cocker Spaniel mix. If God made anything better he kept it in heaven. Anna In Ohio
WE HAVE IT, but states must enforce it....
That's one idiotic law!
We don't need to be adopting Australia's mandate everything government. Well, mandate anything that isn't strictly forbidden.
Really wish I had the money, yard and ability to foster dogs... Hopefully some day! Good job.
@Denise Blair is it really? Maybe it's a Florida thing. I looked into it but maybe I should again once I have a decent yard!
That is so funny how they said Perli doesn't like men and look at her with Lee she is in love ❤
Maybe previous men weren't nice to her.
YES 😂😂😂😂 I LOVED THAT
She looks so happy when she got to your home. I noticed her tail started wagging.
I've had two senior dogs at two different times that just showed up in my life as strays . I gave them a home and loved each of them till their passing. One for 8yrs. the other for 3.
They were the sweetest old girls. I miss them sometimes. RIP Daisy and Trixie . 😔💕
God bless you George B .. Daisy & Trixie are safe over the Rainbow Bridge, as is my beautiful rescued girl *** SONNET ***
We will meet them again when it is our time to go to Heaven. For now I know my sweet SONNET walks in spirit beside me 🐶🥰❣️
💗🐾💗🐾🌈
I have a 16 yr old dog and her mother lived to be 19. I have been in situations where I was flat broke and couldn't afford deposits. Anytime I moved, my dog went with me! How on earth could anyone give up a family member of 14 yrs is beyond me. Or leave a dog in a crate for 22 hrs a day. Thank god for people like you.
i'm glad to see you really help these dogs especially the older dogs who have had their lives turned upside down. i can't fathom how someone could just walk out of their pets life when they need them more then anything as they age. keep up the great work.
poor baby doesnt belong in shelter.belongs in home to live his senior yrs
"You know I cant resist chihuahuas"
I never thought I'd hear those words come from a guy, ever 👀😂
Lol you never met my dad 😂 tattoo former navy tough guy can’t be more soft than with our chihuahuas 😂
I have a rescue sitting on my lap right now. She was surrendered to a high kill shelter at five years old. I have only had her for two months and can’t imagine my life without her.
Thank you for choosing to rescue - especially from a high kill shelter. Chances are that you saved your faithful friend's life. Wishing you both all the very best for your future together x
This is such a nice story. Giving this pup love at such an old age is wonderful. I love nice stories of kindness. I do the same. I have fosterd over 30 animals and saved. Everthing from tiny turtles to birds. Even a bald eagle. I now have twin calico rescue kitties. So thank you again🐶😺😺😇
Lee, you and your wife are absolutely amazing! I love what you guys do! I do not have a house big enough for a crew like you two have, but I do have 2 rescue dogs and 5 rescue cats. They are the best. I lost my husband to cancer December 30, lost my job on March 31, and had to quarantine due to Covid-19. I don’t know how I would have survived had it not been for my fur babies. Thank you for saving as many lives as you do. 😁❤️🌈🐶😻
Such a big, tall guy and he's on the floor with her (in a baby talk) *wee gonna give you the best tummy ruby*.
One of my neighbors looks like a Hell's Angels. 6ft5in. Built like a house. Shaved head. Steel toe boots. People literally cross the street when they see him coming. Every other word that comes out of his mouth is an Ef bomb. Super rough around the edges. Awkward with people
He teaches special needs kids
He also feeds and cares for all the feral cats in our complex (we have a lot). He's "the pussycat guy"
This is what everyone should be like. This couple is great. Just makes my day. Thank you.
Must be so shocking for a doggy to lose its home and everyone it knows 😞
And you can't even explain it to them
My boy is 14 years young! I am grateful for everyday we have together. I was hospitalized for 5 weeks and he was depressed and confused while my folks cared for him. For weeks after he would cry and bark when I would leave the house for fear I was not returning. This poor girl is so sad and confused. I am so happy she will get a "real" family!
14 years. I could never let go a part of the family. I’ll take her.
I just love it when he says, "all of the massages and belly rubbies". Lol
She's a beautiful 14yr old cutie with a sweet spirit. 😢😢😢
cannot imagine after 14 yrs. leaving your BABY. so Sad😵😵😵
It TRULY restores my faith in humanity when I see people like this. You guys are real heroes.
I should watch this every day for the smile it put on my face. And I am a crazy old cat lady! There are some beautiful people in the world, thank you to this pair. Adopt, dont shop.
Your pet is a family member, period. I would go through hell and high water for my cats. I would get a second job or work extra shifts whatever it would take to move them with me. 14 years of bonding and then to just give them up like that. Sad :/
All the dogs are like: "Oh mai gosh a new friend!" So cutee
I know!!! 🤗🐾
Just can’t see myself giving up a pet after 14 years. I just wouldn’t move. I am looking for a new condo and the main thing I’m looking for is a little backyard space for my cat. If it doesn’t have one I simply won’t get it.
Sometimes you don't have a choice. Rent only ever goes up. People lose jobs. Relatives get sick. Unexpected expenses come up out of nowhere.
I have a tear in my eye and a lump on my throat, when I see all those dogs in that shelter. But thank God for people like you guys. Xxxxxx
Keeping a dog in a crate for 20 hours a day. WTF???
Thie is just horrible!
Luckily he has a happy life now & lots of outdoor time!
💕 🐾
How does one sleep after intentionally departing from an animal after 14 years
It's not like they had a choice
@Work hard Play harder!! calm yo ass down u don't know what these ppl going through like she said they probably couldn't afford the dog no more probably loss there home and couldn't keep him it a lot reasons..not everyone can live in a fairytale world like you
I'm glad that cute dog is with a better family ❤️ The people that have him up aren't family 💔.
I’d live on the street first!!! Poor dog will never be able to trust anyone!!!
Gracie Adams me TOO
Have you been in LA? Living on the street is horrible!
My god how could you leave that little baby in a crate like that. That just breaks my heart. I have a tea cup chihuahua and I could never IMAGINE doing that to him. We need more people like this who really care and that want to make a difference , it’s nice to see ❤️
So sweet. From abandoned at the shelter, to having a home, a family and dog friends! 😍💖
Its so sad when the dogs lose hope 😥
Mel Boon honestly if I was going to Foster a dog that was already 14 years old I would just adopt her. Unfortunately she doesn't have that much time left, you might as well just keep her so she doesn't have to keep adapting to new people, and probably wondering if she is doing something wrong the whole time in the process.
my heroes, for sure! Keep up your tremendous humanity.
Thank you for all you do for these seniors... These dogs deserve everything.
👍👍👍
Sending wishes to the Asher Family for nothing but joy and happiness on their journey through this life. What an example of kindness. :D
When Queenie followed butters around it melted my heart 😍
I hope you have a long and healthy life and a strong relationship with each other as a couple so you can be happy and keep sharing your happiness with these babies. Thanks for all your efforts
Yeah, you're a good one, Mr Asher. You make the world a better place just being you. I'm so so comforted that this lovely, gentle, pupper had the softest landing possible after such a tragedy as losing her family at such an old age. Thank you for saving her. Thank you thank you thank you!
Oh lord I can't look at the other dogs in the shelter without tearing up.
I love this couple! Such kind hearted beautiful souls. It breaks my heart to know how often people abandon their pets as soon as they get older. Thank you so much for giving these dogs a second chance at a happy life. I'm really inspired by you both❤
No wonder why people that are happy have pets that they consider as part of theif family as babies. So much respect for these guys 💯💕
Your the best, I volunteer at my local shelter and I see this alot. Owners taking and surrendering thier dogs after years of them being with them, it is so heartbreaking. Your an angel💖
feeling sick 14 years kick from her family just coz have to move
Love how Tony went from no confidence to one of the first greeters every time!
I know CeCe is gone but what a wonderful rest of her days you gave her. You are very special.
Dogs are just so accepting. Look at those tails.
Having 2 dogs myself & losing my 3rd dog of 15yrs to cancer just 3yrs ago, I can't imagine what I wouldn't sell or do or give away to bring my animals with me. It breaks my heart for the dog & I cannot imagine the trauma they must be processing. You can literally see it in their eyes.
I hope videos like this will open hearts & minds to senior adoption 💯💕✌️
Omg I love this guy! He needs his own real youtube channel
Bravo to ALL who rescue🙌🏼 Thank you!!! 🐾🐾💜🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾💙
They didn't leave with just 2 foster dogs but they left with a big and determined heart and a smile on there face ❤
It takes a beautiful spirit to take a senior dog home even if it is for a little while. You were raised right. Bless you.
Thank you both for what you do. The bigger dog was crying and huffing when you desired to adopt her it's like she new and was beyond happy.
On arrival K.C. was like "Dang, there's as many dogs here as there were at the shelter"! Thanks for fostering K.C. in her traumatic hour of need. I'm not allowed pets where I live, so I've signed up as a volunteer at the nearest shelter. Lifelong lover of dogs and cats, it's going to be a blast. Cheers!!
after 14 years, i cant imagine giving up on such a sweet soul. my dog died no so long ago, seems like yesterday. I would give anything for one more day with him. anything. some people dont deserve the unconditional love of a furry friend.
The couple is the most affectionate people I have seen as an advocate for dogs! And they really do it at home, and NOT just for the camera. So happy older dogs are being highlighted because they need as much love if not more than the younger dogs. Again Mahalo (thank you in Hawaiian) from Hawaii! Oh keep up the great work!
KC is such a beautiful soul, and Pearlie looks to be settling right in. another great pair of fosters.
I cried watching this, Lee you have a big heart, we need more of u two in this world. Pearlie and KC enjoy being with this beautiful people. God bless you always!❤🙏
I LOVE IT- YOU CAN SEE THE OLDER BIG DOG OPENING UP MORE- SO COOL !!!
I LOVE your dog pack and to see how well they welcomed their new fosters. Well done all of you 🌹🌹
I can just feel this guys joy in all his videos. It’s positively contagious!
I would never leave my dog for moving... if the dog can’t come I don’t move!
Yep. Our family feels this way too! We are military and have taken our pets all over!! We've had a cat from kitten to age 19 when she passed. She's been in 5 states and Europe. Our dogs have been 3 states. We have greyhounds now, rescued from the tracks in Florida and Texas.
I had to watch it twice. As my daughters say, "This is so wholesome!" It made me so happy to see you two taking in Casey and Pearl and how happy the dogs seemed, how chill your dogs at home were when greeting the new dogs, allowing Casey and Pearl to so easily fit in. Thank you for being awesome humans!
HOW CAN ANYONE HAVE A DOG FOR 14 YEARS THEN JUST DUMP HER?! Poor dog can’t possibly understand that kind of rejection. Lee is awesome, really nice shelter too.
Mr. Lee -- I love seeing the happiness and gratitude in the dogs whom you rescue. But even more, I love seeing you filled with joy as you pour out your love and friendship upon these wonderful dogs. You are a very special man!
I need to know what Mr. Lee feeds his dogs? I love this guy and everything he does for all of these dogs. He is so devoted to changing their lives and getting them out of shelters and into loving furever homes. Thanks for everything you do!!! 💚
it’s really sad to see how low-income pet owners are impacted by skyrocketing real estate prices. I know we wouldn’t be able to afford the pet deposit, we’re lucky enough to have a letter qualifying our pet as an ESA.
I just respect what Lee and Sidney do for these dogs. Big love 💕 to you. Agree 100% with Lee saying why get a dog to keep it in a crate 22hrs a day
No matter how many say their dogs are like their children.. apparently not quite.
Nope. They ARE my children. Never married and had no kids so they are my family and forever shall be!
I've just discovered your channel and I can honestly say I've fallen in love with what you do.
I'm in the middle of a third lockdown in England and it's started to take it's toll.
Watching your videos has given me a new sense of JOY again.
Thank you you so much for what you do and sharing it.
I haven't got time to take dogs in the way you do but I will be looking in to helping out at an animal sanctuary.
You have inspired this in me.
I can't find a word that says how amazing I think what you are doing is!!!!
Thank you so much for what you are doing and sharing🤗🤗🤗
We have a 2 year old bulldog and then we adopted a six year old female bulldog that was retiring from breeding. She is so sweet and starved for attention. She was not used to being a pet just housed. She has medical issues we're over coming and she's had surgery on both eyes but doing better. She's happy and loves to play and loves toys and food! So happy we have them both. So grateful we found her.
OMG I just found this dude and he is amazing.
