When I was made homeless by a family member with no place to go, the shelter took our cats. I was and still am 3 years later devastated, even though I didn't want to give them up, I couldn't leave them outside to fend for themselves. So I gave them all the info I had, names, our vet who knows us really well, told them to call for their medical records. I spent 3 days crying and not eating because those were my babies. Knowing I would never see them again, because I was going to a shelter myself, I made sure that whomever adopted them, would have all the info they needed to make sure my babies would have the care they needed. I don't understand just dumping and running.
I had to turn my dogs in once. It was aweful! I was bawling the whole time. I was going into the military and couldn't find anyone to take care of them while I was gone. It was the worst time of my life 😢. I didn't get another dog for over 6 years. I adopted her from a rescue and I've had her ten years now ❤.
@Ichtopia thank you for your service to our country!!! That's something you never think about and good to know. My dream is to do a project helping out veterans or active military . You gave me a great idea, maybe that's something to think about, fostering dogs while they're away serving our country! 🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
@marylynnbehrens5562 I love your idea, I'm certain you'll get support for - and A LOT of interest in - such a project. That's such a brilliant concept. I truly believe that MANY people will - not only love your idea, they will wholeheartedly embrace and support it. I really hope you get whatever you need to get your project up and running. I'm also certain (especially within the worldwide animal rescuing community - to which you and I both belong, lol) that once people know exactly WHAT you are doing, WHO you're doing it for, and WHY, Then the 'HOW' will quickly come together, the support will be there! - I don't think I could count the number of grateful service-women and service-men, (& their FUR-BABIES) who would be DELIGHTED to be part of this project, while they are away, their hearts may ache, that's only natural, however, they'd be greatly comforted in the knowledge that their fury-family members are being truly cared for, loved and truly happy. PLEASE grab your brilliant 👏 idea 💡 and RUN WITH IT, SERIOUSLY - YOU ARE ONTO SOMETHING FABULOUSLY WONDERFUL. I'M sending you all the positive 'it's gonna happen' vibes that I've got. GO, YOU GOOD THING😊🎉👏💡😀😇❤️🐕🐾✨️🐕🐾🥰🐕🐾🐕🦺🦮🥰🐕🐾❤️✌🏽🙏💖💪🫂😘😇🐕🐾🐕🐾✨️🐕🐾🐕🦺✨️🦮✨️🐈✨️🐾🐕🐈💜💛🩵🫂😇🫂😇🫂✌🏽🩵😊
I hope that you are not a friend whit those people anymore. I wouldn't forgive people if someone call themselves my friend but in the time in need wouldn't step in.
So sorry you had to go through this. I have helped pets and people for over four decades now because everyone deserves to get the help they need to feel better.😢
Yes they need to be adopted together. I agree with you 1000%.❤❤❤Sending love and prayers they find their loving forever family ASAP AMEN 💗 🙏 🕊 ⚘️ ♥️ they are so cute and so sweet. . They need to be taken care of . Please get Tham groom and clean up so they can get adopted easier.
It is so hard to know what to do & the owner gave them another chance. I was in an abusive relationship years ago & fortunately I gave my cat to a shelter in London to look after him until I was bought out by my ex due to my ex threatening to kill him if I left him there:(. I couldn't take to him to my friends where I had moved to as she was allergic. The shelter looked after him for a year & on the paperwork it even stipulated that he must not be sold:) I was able to visit him weekly when I had a car to get there & they even let the cats out to wander the grounds once they were settled over just keeping them stuck in their cages. Once I was able to get him out I was in a position to pay them back for what they had done & still support them. They were truly amazing. I hope these babies get their forever home soon.
I don’t think many people would know that a shelter could help them keep the dog. I think that’s a good PSA announcement from local shelters is they can afford it. These two are precious.
Edited****I live in an area hours from anywhere that provides any assistance, food, medical, etc. it is not available everywhere! **** People don’t leave information because they are shamed for a decision that is already heartbreaking. Yes, it is easy to say I would never give up my dog for anything. What about when you lose all your income, your health and are being told you have to move. Choose between a home for your children and living on the streets to keep your dog. But if you take the dog to a shelter you are told that it is illegal to drop off dogs without paying. And if not illegal, you simply don’t have the $, heck you can’t buy milk for your babies. And people make you feel horrible for making the hardest decision in many people’s lives. In times like this many are having to choose between feeding people or feeding pets and no one should EVER have to make that choice. Need more programs to assist with keeping pets in homes. Helping with short term food needs or emergency medical. The $ for dogs in shelters is vital but let’s work On keeping them in their homes to begin with!
Yes, sometimes this happens. It is better to turn them in instead of abandoning them in some field somewhere. I respect that decision. Looks like the right decision was made.
So true, in too many cases owners are made to feel guilty about handing pets over ,they feel ashamed, very upset aren't in good places themselves, that's a massive problem, also I know in Britain benefits ask if you have pets and question do you need them, they suggest get rid of pets as they are a Luxury!!!!!, in many cases they provide emotional support, not everyone is bad owner, some are just uneducated in animal welfare and actually love their pets but financially unstable, Some just get in over their heads. Hopefully they will get a new lease of life in luxury.
I've adopted my son's 2 dogs who are brother and sister. In 10 years, they've never been apart for a single day or night. They would be devastated without one another. Pls pls pls keep these 2 Lovelies together. I guarantee they would be traumatized if separated. Already you can see big brother is protective of the little one.
Lucy and Desi I worked as a Vet Tech for 10 years and I can think of one client in particular who had a similar situation but he did not surrender them and eventually had them taken from him because the situation got so bad. Sometimes the kindest thing an owner can do is to surrender them so that they can get proper care.
Poor little muffs. Rocky , thank you for giving them some love and attention. I know a perfect forever home will come for both of them. They’re so cute.
I was homeless and I kept my cat and dog! Later. I found an apartment. Now they have a very happy life. They helped me through the hard times and were rewarded with a nice safe home! But I do understand the choice the best choice for the animal.
Praying together. I raised 4 tiny babies since 3 days old. Kept 2 and my mom took 2. Mine passed away a month apart, one cancer one a broken heart I think. These babies need each other. Praying they let potential adoptees know their need for that. Someone special will adopt them together. 😢
Dear Rocky & Vet staff may God bless you all for all you do for these beautiful animals. I pray for a forever home for these babies. They deserve a loving home❤❤❤❤
My Aunt had to get her pup a new home , 😔 it broke her heart she cried for months, he was her best friend, she lost her job and couldn't keep him she was in depression for along time, before she gave him away she barely ate so he could eat what he always ate. She got him everything he needed. So I try to not judge anymore. And their skin could be very well why they decided it would be better, idk it's sad for all
@@jennyjohnston1993you are blessed to have never been in an extremely bad situation where there isn't another option. Compassion is understanding that not everyone has the same life situation.
She should have reached out. If you guys cannot afford food for your animal talk to rescues and humane shelters there are places taking money to help people who lost their jobs and those who are struggling. Churches can also help. Don't give up, reach out
I'm currently fostering a little dog that was found in Stockton, CA, and I'm baffled by how similar she looks to Leo in this video-they're almost identical! She's 5 years old and also weighed less than 6 lbs when they found her. She was saved by a rescue in Washington from the euthanasia list since her back legs are paralyzed. I'm so grateful for shelters like Animal Friends of the Valley and incredible rescues that save dogs in need, giving them second chances. I hope these dogs find their perfect homes soon; they remind me so much of my sweet foster, who is an absolute angel 💖.
Hi Rocky! I live in Erie, Pennsylvania which is pretty far from where you are, but I'm VERY interested in adopting these two. I don't care what their ages are, physical condition or level of training is, but I know I could provide a very loving and good home for them. The dogs in our house are all well vetted, deeply loved and treated like royalty. I can provide references from my veterinarian that will validate our claims. There is no doubt in my mind that we could provide a good home and give them the love and care they so deserve. I'm home all day while my husband works and would be able to provide full time care. I know we're not local to you, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to bring these two here. I can send you video and pictures of our home and property, provide references, do a Facetime... whatever you need. How can we make this happen? I'll take them in ANY condition and make sure they have the best medical care as well.
They clearly are not being well cared for and the best thing for them both is to find them a new home together THEY ARE PRECIOUS LITTLE PEANUTS i hope they are adopted TOGETHER and soon
I think they're better off there, it's obvious that they hadn't been de-flead and were suffering because of it, bless them! As per usual I'd love to adopt them! The little sweethearts.
Oh My Goodness Gracious! Leo and Lily are two of the Most Adorable Pups I have ever seen! I'm sure they will be adopted together, and VERY SOON! Woof! Woof!💓 🐶🐕💓
Hardship is REAL. Vet care is unbelievably expensive. We adopted a dog whose owner didn't want him anymore. I tried to get help with vet costs, but you have to be destitute to qualify. So we've spent well over $1000 it the last few months (including neutering) that we really can't afford. I feel very stuck.
We have gone backwards with pet care...800 for neutering..the animals situation is gone totally backwards...vets should be ashamed of themselves....who can afford such prices not the average not these days
About a month ago we had to put our beloved dog down as she was really suffering and I knew it was probably the end. It cost $1200 to have her seen and euthanized that day. We're low income but I had started saving a small portion of my paycheck every month for emergencies and that day totally drained all my savings and my most recent paycheck. I'm usually "Dr Mom" for little complaints and we buy the best food we can afford to act as preventative care since we can't afford to see a vet regularly. 😢
I am so very sorry to learn of your hardship, but I give you a lot of credit for continuing to care for the dog. I will pray that you can manage more easily as time goes on!
@@carolmartin3028I think Vet Businesses have been bought out by Corporations and that is why they are charging so much. I think my cat I have had for 12 years may have Hyperthyroidism. I have read that the meds for hyperthyroidism can cause kidney failure so I am very reluctant to take him to a vet. He has gotten very skinny. He was an adult when I got him 12 years ago so I don’t know his true age. I was in very different condition $$money$$ wise 12 years ago than I am now. I am 77 and live on Social Security. I was in hospital last year for a broken Femur which I am still paying off that hospital bill. If my cat dies I will be devastated, I love him so much. His name is Yoshiki. I feel bad for all people who must give up their beloved pets because of hardship. I will never judge others who do the best they can. Life can be hard. Stroke and kiss your animals they give you so much love.💕🐈💕🐕🦺💕🐈⬛💕
I'm so happy that you're putting it out there that Animal Friends of the Valleys will help people suffering economic hardship. Maybe, more people will reach out for help rather than surrender their loved companions. 🥰
I've been in the position of having to choose between my kids and pets when trying to rent. This was years ago, and I STILL feel like a bad person for it. I urge feeling compassion for the previous owner. Thank you, Rocky and team, for your work with these animals. ❤
Where ever they came from someone was unwilling or unable to care for them in the most basic ways. The shelter has already helped them with flea treatment. I do hope they are adopted together. Leo seems very attached to Lily. Thank you for showing them. I am sure those cute liitle ones will find a home now!
Leo and Lily are such cute and sweet puppies who deserve to go to a loving home where they will be happy together and not go through any hardships! 🥰 Fingers crossed that they go home. 🤞
They are so cute and sweet. Thank you for sitting with them Rocky. How about Mork and Mindy for their names. Leo and Lillie are great names for them too.❤🙏🐾🐾
So Adorable! These babies would be adopted in a heartbeat here in Florida, so many senior citizens looking for smaller companion dogs. Just like I did. Both of my dogs (little white fluffs with tan accents) are adopted. One Bichon type, the other maybe Jack Russel terrier type but the same size and coloring, look like a team, people ask me if they're littermates!
Lucy & Ricky is a perfect name for these little love bugs ❤❤ I wish I lived near your shelter because I would definitely want them - I would love to be their mommy❤️🩵
If owners feel overwhelmed and the shelters is able to help, that is obviously the ideal. However, if the day of doom is inevitable, it is far better to surrender pets to the shelter and trust staff to do due diligence in ensuring that adoptees are genuine. These two adorable doglets should be adopted together. ❤️🐶🙏🐶🙏❤️
They look like dogs owned by a senior who was having trouble caring for themselves. Sometimes they have to surrender their animals before going to a home.
Diamonds in the rough! I adopted mine like that 12 years ago. Dirty, matted, reactive. Just needed lots of love. They have been a wonderful part of mine & my husbad's lives. (First p
I hope they go together. That's twice the love for who ever takes them. They can't eat that much but they lost there home please don't let them lose each other. God bless the one thst takes them❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s a sad situation, very heartbreaking. I believe it’s better that they cared enough for the dogs to let them go knowing they couldn’t provide a good healthy environment for them. I hope the family gets through these trying times. I pray these little precious little dogs find a loving home where they’ll have the best lives ever! ❤ 🐾
It's a blessing they're there. They deserve to have unconditional love, care and attention and get their skin issues under control. It's unfortunate the owner left them, but everything happens for a reason. Love, blessings and a forever family for them and keeping them together. 🥰🙏❤

He was an adult when I got him 12 years ago so I don’t know his true age. I was in very different condition $$money$$ wise 12 years ago than I am now. I am 77 and live on Social Security. I was in hospital last year for a broken Femur which I am still paying off that hospital bill. If my cat dies I will be devastated, I love him so much. His name is Yoshiki. I feel bad for all people who must give up their beloved pets because of hardship. I will never judge others who do the best they can. Life can be hard. Stroke and kiss your animals they give you so much love.💕🐈💕🐕🦺💕🐈⬛💕
Just got back from the vet. Join a wellness program it makes it a little easier
I'm so happy that you're putting it out there that Animal Friends of the Valleys will help people suffering economic hardship.
Maybe, more people will reach out for help rather than surrender their loved companions. 🥰
I've been in the position of having to choose between my kids and pets when trying to rent. This was years ago, and I STILL feel like a bad person for it. I urge feeling compassion for the previous owner. Thank you, Rocky and team, for your work with these animals. ❤
They are a bonded pair and need to be together
Where ever they came from someone was unwilling or unable to care for them in the most basic ways. The shelter has already helped them with flea treatment. I do hope they are adopted together. Leo seems very attached to Lily. Thank you for showing them. I am sure those cute liitle ones will find a home now!
Leo and Lily are such cute and sweet puppies who deserve to go to a loving home where they will be happy together and not go through any hardships! 🥰 Fingers crossed that they go home. 🤞
Good thoughts Leo and Lilly find their loving forever home ASAP. THANK YOU for all you do helping these dogs...
They are so cute and sweet. Thank you for sitting with them Rocky. How about Mork and Mindy for their names. Leo and Lillie are great names for them too.❤🙏🐾🐾
Maggie and Duke. They are so adorable. I have two Maltese little girls and they remind me of them.
Please give an update on these precious puppies ❤
I love the ‘positive affirmations’ part of your videos…you can see the little ones perk up!!! 🥹❤️🐶🙏
So Adorable! These babies would be adopted in a heartbeat here in Florida, so many senior citizens looking for smaller companion dogs. Just like I did. Both of my dogs (little white fluffs with tan accents) are adopted. One Bichon type, the other maybe Jack Russel terrier type but the same size and coloring, look like a team, people ask me if they're littermates!
Thank you. You give me faith in people. These little babies definitely need a good home with a living family.
Macey and Lacey! Sending pooch snuggles. He is a very handsome boy 😊
The Flip coffee arrives very fast! Please order some! I got my pumpkin spice today!
Hope they stay together ❤❤
These two are 100% adorable. A brother and a sister! 😍🥰😍🥰😍😖
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, YOU ROCK, ROCKY KANAKA!!! I ADMIRE YOUR STRENGTH AND LOVING HEART. GO BLESS YOU FOREVER!!!
In memory of my two dogs. Mork and Mindy. Mindy lived 17 years and 4 month. I had her since she was about 2/3 month old.
I hope they get adopted quickly! ❤🐾❤
Yeah, definitely should be together and I hope the shelter really make sure they get a good home
They are precious & my heart is crying for them😢❤🙏. Bonnie & Clyde
Oh, …I like these names best of all!❤ Good thinking!
Lucy & Ricky is a perfect name for these little love bugs ❤❤ I wish I lived near your shelter because I would definitely want them - I would love to be their mommy❤️🩵
Loved the names Leo and Lilly!!! They are an incredibly cute pair😊❤

Thanks!
Thank you Sara!
These 2 are so adorable and I hope they get a loving home❤
So cute, hope they get adopted together
They are so precious and perfect!🥰🥰
They are so cute. 😍 I bet after a bath and some time they will look great. I pray they get adopted together. Thank you for helping them.
Fingers crossed they can stay together, healthy and happy!❤❤❤
Sending love to these two ❤❤❤
If owners feel overwhelmed and the shelters is able to help, that is obviously the ideal. However, if the day of doom is inevitable, it is far better to surrender pets to the shelter and trust staff to do due diligence in ensuring that adoptees are genuine.
These two adorable doglets should be adopted together.
❤️🐶🙏🐶🙏❤️
They look like dogs owned by a senior who was having trouble caring for themselves. Sometimes they have to surrender their animals before going to a home.
That is so sad and is making me cry...heartbreaking.
I have always said that is so wrong.
Diamonds in the rough! I adopted mine like that 12 years ago. Dirty, matted, reactive. Just needed lots of love. They have been a wonderful part of mine & my husbad's lives. (First p
every time I watch your videos, I am so thankful that you exist and that you truly help all these dogs! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the affirmations to the dogs
They are adorable! I cried while watching. The little girls ears are so cute. 🥰
Looking forward to pupdates on these two!❤❤❤❤❤❤😊 Thanks, Rocky!🎉
I hope they go together. That's twice the love for who ever takes them. They can't eat that much but they lost there home please don't let them lose each other. God bless the one thst takes them❤❤❤❤❤❤
Twix and Kit Kat! ❤❤ Im sure they already have names! But for your next bonded pair!
It’s a sad situation, very heartbreaking. I believe it’s better that they cared enough for the dogs to let them go knowing they couldn’t provide a good healthy environment for them. I hope the family gets through these trying times. I pray these little precious little dogs find a loving home where they’ll have the best lives ever! ❤ 🐾
OMG, what a couple of cuties!
God Bless you for helping these sweet babies 🩵🩷💙
Bedankt
Starla and Princeton. Those babies are so precious and adorable. God bless you Rocky for all you do!
So sad that I missed the live feed. I totally respect and appreciate all that you do Rocky. Thank you.
It's a blessing they're there. They deserve to have unconditional love, care and attention and get their skin issues under control. It's unfortunate the owner left them, but everything happens for a reason. Love, blessings and a forever family for them and keeping them together. 🥰🙏❤
They are adorable ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for helping these cuties ❤❤❤❤❤
