  • In the spirit of Anzac Day yesterday, when thinking about the description of this video, I can't help but think, that a truly ordinary day like today's video, has a whole lot more meaning to this guy than what it might seem to most.
    Let me explain. Here's a veteran who served for many years and returned a broken man suffering from PTSD amongst other things. He struggled to connect with people as a civilian. Didn't know what to do with his life to be honest. So he began working with dogs. He felt like he understood them and they him. Luke would say they even saved him. I would agree.
    And so, when life seemed to offer a choice to take a path to help misplaced and misunderstood shelter dogs he took it.
    He gave up a business he had built, to give back to some needy dogs that reminded him of himself and his own struggles fitting into society.
    Well here he is today. An ordinary day.
    A day, as always, completely devoted in every way to giving these dogs the best life he can possibly manage.
    From sunrise, to way past sunset. Each and every day.
    Whether it's building the Dingoes the most fandangle shelter he can imagine. Thinking of new ways to make them feel like they belong. Helping with their relationships. Taking the pack for multiple runs and swims. Feeding them the best food he can muster. Vacuuming the floor 10 times, loading the washing machine for 20th time, picking up the 40th poo. And telling them they're loved and beautiful.
    Whatever they need to feel loved, understood and that they belong ... there's no limit to what he will do.
    It gives him purpose and he's returning a favour. You saved mine, now allow me to save yours.
    This pack is his platoon. And no one will ever get left behind.
    To all those who have served, thank you for your service. To the families of those who have served, thank you also for your sacrifice. To the animals that stood beside our men and women and gave their lives in service. Lest we Forget.
    And I'd like to acknowledge the battle that continues for our service men and women long past the battlefield. Long past their retirement. It really is a lifelong service. Hopefully all over the world, people are recognising this more and more and helping our soldiers when they need us most.
    I would like to also take this moment to pass on an update from Dee and her shelter, where many of our dogs have come from. Sadly the outbreak of Parvo has worsened. Here is today's update from Dee ...

    luke saying that the dogs saved him is definately true. in recent times a lot of you older videos pop up in my recommendations. the stories of freddo, roscoe, shadow, diesel (i hope he is doing good), rover, the two misses, tilly, chancey. in helping them they helped him.
    it was a cat that saved my live. after a car accident that left me paraplegic i was depressive, aggressive, suicidal (2 attempts). one day my partner who knows me so well and stood by my side brought home a cat that was run over by a car. no more use of her hindlegs. she needed help to go potty because she couldnt do it on her own anymore. but she didnt care. she loved live. nothing could slow her down. her love for live was so contageous. after three weeks i said: ok, i got the message. live can still be great - even in a chair. she passed last year but she will always be my hero. the hero that saved me and made me love live again.

    I have not even watched the video, but reading Sam's synopsis about Luke has me in tears.
    Luke,I live in the States, but thank you for your service to your country and the world. You truly are an amazing person and have fought life on many battlefields. I'm grateful to you, Sam, kids, the pack, kittirs and dingoes for giving back to all of us. The family, you have built 2 and 4 legged are so loved around the world.
    My Dad was in the Army (no wars) but met my mom in England. ❤
    Blessings and thanks to all who have served worldwide.

    Sam, a beautiful tribute to Luke & all service men, women & their families. It teared me up a little. I am forever grateful to come across this channel to experience 2 people who continually make lemonade from the lemons thrown their way. And I've come to truly appreciate the man who made a life for himself, his family & his platoon. Luke 'bends' life to better the lives around him instead of blaming the bumps along life's journey.

It seems to me this is a perfect example of how Luke, you, the child, the dogs, dingos, cats, and all the critters at the Farm live together symbiotically in love and mutual respect. I am grateful to be part of this community. ❤️🐶😻🐴🐐❤️

    ♥️🐾💗 Such a heartfelt tribute to HONOR Luke and all servicemen and women. It truly is a lifetime service, from PTSD to the physical injuries, the camaraderie and the “service” instilled in your mind and body. This is with you all your life. Sam, your words are so eloquent and soul touching. Your devotion and love for Luke shines brightly, just as both yours’ and Luke’s has for all the wonderful animals your lives have touched and nurtured. I still remember the day that Yoyo wasn’t returned to the shelter ❤️ and Chancy Boi and Cruiser and all the rest🐾. What a legacy you both have made. Thank you for your words Sam, even as tears stream down, I am eternally grateful. Hats are off and my hand over my heart 💜♥️❤️💗🇺🇸

    Beautiful tribute video Sam. Seeing this new video, makes me think of the 1st video I remember watching about 4+ years ago. Luke on a paddle board out in the middle of the pond with your dogs and a few daycare pups. Sam behind the camera, silently catching every beautiful moment, and Luke, happy and enjoying every moment. There have been a lot of beautiful times , gut wrenching times, and so many hilarious moments since the 1st video I remember.
    If you are new to the channel or haven’t had a chance to look back at the early years of The Farm’s journey, it is well worth the time to check out the videos. Luke’s journey as a spec ops veteran acclimatizing back into a civilian society is poignant. Sam and the children, the daycare, the rescues of animals who were on death row and had no chances left is too special to miss.
    Thank you Sam and Luke for allowing us to take this journey with you. We feel loved like family for being included. ❤

    As a Cattle dog tragic, Tilly has always been one of my favourites. That tiniest streak of unhinged in all of them is so endearing to me, now. However when my cattle dog was biting the wheels of the mower and lifting it off the ground while I was mowing and flying out the back door knocking our sliding screen door off it’s hinges and half way down the yard, it was slightly alarming to me. Now a good 20 years after the fact It’s just makes me smile to see any inkling of that in any of them.I’m so glad to see her feeling so well. I think she always do her job what ever she thinks that is but playing like a puppy like that is proof she must be feeling like a spring chick again. Go Till Till.

    I understand Sam exactly what you are saying here. My husband served with the U.S.Army in Vietnam and you describe the PTSD exactly even 50 years later. I also want to say to you , Sam, it takes a special lady to be the wife of some one that suffers from combat related PTSD. It's not an easy life for either one of you. I have watched you stand by Luke in life changing decisions through these challenging years like a trooper.
    Thank you, Luke, for your service to your country. My husband has told me many times what great soldiers the Aussies were in Vietnam. Be proud of who you are. Different wars but same concept.

    Luke and Sam, you are amazing people, your actions to save all your dogs are priceless. Luke's military background has given him the ability to go through hardships to save abandoned dogs.
    The war has been going on in Ukraine for three years now, and there are heroic people, volunteers, who are now rescuing animals from destroyed villages, right under bombing. The channel is called Animal Rescue Kharkiv.

      Yes! I’ve seen a few videos when they started. Broke my heart! And now it’s also the families of Palestine. How sad, violent, and unnecessary. The dogs and cats don’t deserve what is being thrust upon them, and if they survive this, the PTSD will be horrific. Let’s hope they are fortunate enough to land with someone like Luke & Sam.❤

Also a huge thank you, Sam, for always being by Luke’s side and giving your 4 legged kids so much love. You and Luke have given this precious pack a loving, forever home. And can never forget your three beautiful, loving and sweet children. The Evan’s family are truly amazing. The Farm is a beautiful piece of the world. ❤❤

    It would be wonderful if you could take what you have written and do a voice intro or voice over to the video, would be very impactful.

    Tilly always a feisty girl. You brought such joy this morning, thank you! Back in a while to finish. love you guys ❤❤ Roscoe sure believes in the big stick, but what was in there to make him jump? A frog? This is the most playful I’ve seen Roscoe, was fun to see. Rover and Tina seem to like to play together. Affectionate bites for Cruiser. That is some toy if it survives dingo play!
    I am grateful for the day I found the Doggie Day Care Farm. The story is just amazing and Sam and Luke, you are two of the most incredible, dedicated and compassionate individuals I have come across. Impossible does not exist in your vocabulary. WWLASS- What would Luke and Sam Say! Your efforts for these magical pups is beautiful to witness, and I cannot wait to see more. Good to see Luke, he has been really busy by the look of things. Take care, and have a good weekend. Love you guys and your message. ❤️🐾🐾😎

    Beautiful description Sam , your words sums up perfectly what Luke and yourself have done for each and every dog that has come through the farm Wether they have been adopted out to begin a new chapter or stayed on the farm to live the life they were denied for so long no longer unwanted, unloved or misunderstood . Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤❤ .
    This is why we love you guys .
    Much love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️ 🤍 💙

    Sam manages beautifully, eloquently and touchingly to remind us why we feel close to a family we will never meet. Because the values Luke and Sam have and live by are humanity at its best: integrity their lodestar, respect toward every living thing a matter of course, kindness, honesty, patience and thoughtfulness are practiced every day. That they both have high IQs and a delightful dollop of humour is just the cherry on top. As parents they set an example, as pack leader Luke has what it takes. Empathy and sympathy gives the pack stability, a strong sense of responsibility keeps everything going.
    Thank you Sam, also for your hard work and for the invitations we get with the videos to mingle (well, virtually) 😊

    Sam this is a lovely tribute to Luke. Thank you. I think so many of us can easily relate to the concept of our dogs or cats saving us from trauma. I know for a fact that I can. Perhaps this is why we choose to be such staunch supporters of Luke, of you Sam, and your pack of misfits ❤.
    Thanks for alerting us to Dee’s plight earlier this week. Looks like many of us here sent donations, which we hope will help her out in healing the dogs in her care. Parvovirus is a rough one.😢

    Just a stunning video, Sam, and a beautiful tribute to Luke. My father was a Canadian Army vet having seen combat in Korea and I know he suffered from PTSD. Our dogs meant the world to him and I have inherited his almost over-the-top love for them. Please thank Luke for his service and thank-you for sharing your story and lives with us. We've had a new rescue dog since November (one of 3 now) and making the decision to adopt a third came largely through inspiration from this channel. After all, what's one more when you are well into double digits? There were so many special moments to watch; I'll definitely be watching again and again! ❤❤

    We all know giving up your daycare was going to be a risk financially for you both, but to see the love in the dogs, cats and dingoes eyes when they are with you both is beautiful to see. 😍
    The dogs all adore Evie, Elle and Wolfie and we all adore the little ones too. ❤❤❤
    Thanks for the post Sam and big hugs and love to you all. 😍
    You will always have my love and financial support and also from many across the globe 🌎
