As a disabled man, it warms my heart to see someone devoting their lives to helping disabled animals. They get given up on so much and it's so unfair, and ableist. All animals deserve a chance to a full and happy life.

[@rachelmayes298]

Weevil I’m disabled and what you said was perfect ❤

[@-scrim]

"ableist" 💀

[@krcsai2006]

Me too

[@weevil8025]

@@-scrim I think it's ableist to give up on an animal's life just because they have a disability.

[@CharlotteIssyvoo]

Same. Though I do wish we could let go of the term "special needs" and just call them disabled. It's not a dirty word! Minor quibble though. This woman obviously cares and gets it.

[@wingv313]

I recognized the little tan puppy from another video. She couldn’t breathe, low oxygen and you built her a oxygen enclosure as she got older & stronger. To find out that you are the same folks that saved her life & Etta’s (as well as so many others) brings me so much joy! Y’all are amazing & deserve medals for what you’ve done for these fur babies! ❤️❤️❤️Any animal that you all come across, are very lucky & thank you for doing what you do🥲🫶🏼

[@Marty22408]

Oh that was them? I remember that 🙂❤❤

[@phantomraimundo]

@@Marty22408 i remember them too but i also forgot their name

[@Claire-pi6ko]

Sally was so cute 🥰

[@enderswolf]

I saw her and came to the comment section to see if anyone else noticed her. ❤

[@LovelyCinccino]

Sally the bubble girl! Also, there was a bit more of the Sally clip in her video, where Sally was able to walk up to Etta’s leg and gave her a kiss.

[@mvc9178]

We could learn a lot as a society from these beautiful creatures.

[@darthvadeth6290]

Well, they have free food, free housing, free healthcare, and don't have to work. Give me that deal, and I'll be a 1000x happier and better human than I am today 😂

[@brianjones4026]

its what i keep saying on these sorts of videos ! Dogs are born to love and care, why are,nt we !

[@laurenmatarazzo459]

Completely agree!!! Been saying this for years!! Dogs r totally selfless, fiercely loyal & love unconditionally!! They r happiest when pleasing their parents. My hubby & I SWEAR that dogs r angels. They r just amazing beings!! They need to have more strict rules & tests for ppl that adopt dogs from shelters, to cut back on ppl returning them, abandoning them or (God forbid!!!!!) hurting them!! It takes a very specific kind of evil to hurt a dog. Every dog deserves a loving, safe, & happy forever home!!!!

[@joedk325]

I watched a dog maul another dog to death in the street yesterday

[@rlms56]

So true. That’s why I like animals more than people. 🐾🐾🐶

[@RosiG73]

What a wonderful foster family.

[@linda6987]

Beautiful just beautiful! Etta is exactly where she needs to be. Thank you for ALL the work you do, you are special, needed and appreciated. 🐾♥️🐾

[@suzieq23ify]

Beautifully said! Special Mom Angel with Etta, the Angel pup!🐶

[@citibear57]

What an amazing dog! Etta had gone through a lot of pain as a pup, but with the incredible, loving care she received, she has become a beautiful loving and caring dog herself. I am so happy that her carers have adopted this special dog ♥

[@alfredbonnabel7022]

Etta is a beautiful creature of love ❤️and empathy for the pups in her life.

[@Drubaldo]

Bless this lady and her dedication and hard work. And Etta is just such an amazing doggy. What an inspiration! ❤

[@FeezFBaby]

Any man that gets her as a gf/wife is a lucky ass man bcuz she’s beautiful & has such a warm, wonderful, & kind heart & soul towards helping animals/dogs 💯💯💯

[@helenpellegrino7759]

What a special girl... animals are an amazing gift...I cannot imagine life without them... Well done.💚

[@---wq9xp]

She's so gentle with the puppies!

[@ollieduracell]

Oh my god, the cuteness is too much at this point

[@erikbihari3625]

Good to see even the dogs of biggest size be gentle mothers and people doing everything in their power for making sure they get best what's possible! Anyone else agrees or think i'm hot air?

[@voyaristika5673]

Oh, Etta! Kathryn and Etta are absolutely spiritual together. I'm 73 yrs old and when I see what this beautiful young woman is giving to the world it makes me think there's hope for the future after all. ❤

[@carissahoner]

Etta was meant to be in your family! Thank you so much for all you do for the needy fur babies, such a blessing!

[@taylormade9971]

What would the world do if wasnt for our precious doggy friends

[@seaninness334]

Yesssss! Waking up to an excellent foster fail story is pretty great. Thanks for going the extra mile caring for these pups in need of extra medical attention. ❤

[@kisham2725]

Etta is paying it forward! ❤🐕

[@jansmall72]

Mama is a good mama she is the best she could need help with her puppies are so precious mama and puppies

[@01Varda]

What a beautiful story, it was so painful to hear little baby Etta go through so much pain, and I was overjoyed to see that you guys adopted her. Now she’s ready to be a part of the family, and be a surrogate mother for all the little puppies that need her.

[@sincerelyajg5067]

Etta is definitely EXACTLY where she needs to be & where she has purpose/a job! She is the mama figure to these puppies giving them encouragement to fight. Thank you for keeping Etta & giving her purpose!

[@falukos2423]

Great Danes have the most beautiful souls.

[@robertdillon9989]

Etta has purpose ! She is part of a pack. She has a job , and it’s hers! She is yours forever! All beings need this, all beings are the same

[@tonif2500]

What a blessing Etta is to you, as well as you all are to Etta! True unconditional love is just amazing!!!! 🥰🙏😊💕

[@ZipGloe]

Sweet babies 🥰

[@laurenmatarazzo459]

I am completely in love with ALL the babies u showed... even the fully grown babies! 😁 Etta is an angel!!!!

[@-Beon]

Poor doggo…. But those cute lil pink casts!

[@erikbihari3625]

Glad see people do their part and what's best for dogs, who in turn return those favors, by ending up as ready helpers themselves directly assisting in many cases. Humanity hope restored! Right?

[@ladyjustice1474]

What a sweet pup, good girl. She's to cute.

[@deeredavid]

I am bawling. Not a few manly tears, I mean full on crying. To Etta and everybody…blessings to all

[@bearifiablepau2095]

I second this.... scrolled down to the comments to see if anybody else shared the sentiment. :)

[@deborahmertens9219]

[@franksmith7247]

[@michellemyallen]

So thankful for your demonstration of love of the deepest resolve. Etta has learned from you and will always extend her utmost as you have for her. Thank you! Beautiful and boundless love!

[@Bella-D]

Bless you loving heart ❤️ for caring for her and not giving up. I couldn't give her up either! 💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️

[@wickedcabinboy]

I don't have the words to adequately convey how deeply I am moved by the way you have helped Etta to have such a good life. It's amazing and heartwarming to see how she has grown and how with your effort and care she's become a fully functioning permanent member of your family. The love that emanates from her is so clear and unbounded. It's especially expressed in how she nuzzles and pays attention to your very young foster fur babies. I don't know why my eyes are wet. It's so strange.

[@bethanysmith5856]

The fur foster parents are always so wonderful

[@wellnone9367]

What a darling dog - I could just hug her. And I love how she helps all the little puppies. What a help for you. Thank you for all you do for these animals. Hugs to you all.

[@kimberleyhanlon1492]

Etta and your family are truly inspirational ! What a pup what a fighter

[@DerpyCat5222]

Etta is such a sweet dog! Also, thx for changing back to the old logo I missed it :3

[@karijordan4930]

This was Etta's purpose in life what she was meant for... To help the puppies to 🥊& heal! What a blessing Etta is to special needs puppies!

[@jessedavis1591]

Thank goodness Etta survived her conditions as a puppy and offered to step in and care for those other puppies as an adult! 😄

[@Saranita79]

@Officer Dibble what is that supposed to mean? Seriously, I want to know what you mean by that.

[@Arya-qc9zg]

This woman is an angel on earth. I don’t cry often but after watching Ettas’s journey am sobbing like a baby. So glad she got to stay ❤️🙏🥹

[@rachaellarkman9680]

Thank you for adopting Etta! She is a beautiful dog and Foster Mummy to the babies. I had a lump in my throat watching her as a puppy and can hardly believe she's the sane dog (obviously fully grown now) xxx

[@magnus1001]

Lady, you are an amazing human being! The 'Bottle Brigade' sounds like an amazing team to be on. Etta fought to live because she knew you were right there beside her fighting with her and now she is the helpful little Mommy that she is-gentle, empathetic, loving and nurturing. Thank you for all you do from all of us dog lovers!

Sending Etta and all the babies lots of love.

[@Izastwin]

Etta is beautiful, yes well she knew she was home all along, I guess she was waiting for her fosters to realise that too😊 Its people like this couple who come in take on special needs puppers, nurse them back to health giving them a chance at life, now that truly warms my heart, I wish many blessings on this wonderful couple and people like them everywhere.🙏🏾💜

[@merrymack2926]

I love you people for being so great and loving and caring for this sweet little precious life. 💗 ... and all of those whom you have revived. So lovely.

[@southsidecarly7427]

This is so sweet, such a great story ! I love your big gentle giant 🥰

[@optimusprime3413]

"WE cannot let her go... we decided to adopt her." Watching all the way from South Africa in tears. If I were in the US, I would have applied to adopt Etta. What a special forster and now forever family. Etta is very special indeed. At first glance, I thought, this family will not be able to let Etta go... I was right. My best for you all and thank you for sharing your story. Jugs of hugs for hooman family and jugs of kisses for Lady Etta...

[@micheledavis3735]

This is one of the most beautiful things I've seen and it makes me so happy! Kathryn and Etta are definitely the dynamic duo and heroes for these puppies! Thank you again for another glorious foster fail!❤

God will reward you sweet lady 👍

[@davebielke6319]

Never, ever, ever give up on those Babies. You fight and then you fight some more and never stop. God bless those sweet Gifts

[@JackieOgle]

This has to be one of the most precious videos. I am so thankful for foster families or anyone who does this much needed caring for sick or injured animals. Seeing how sick Etta was and with kindness and round the clock love and care, she thrived. I think of those poor babies who don't have that love or care. Blessings and great admiration and love for those who do this. It's so wonderful. I think I would have to keep them all.

[@guitarhero9147]

They are all so precious! Thank you for caring for them. GOD bless you.

[@jakkeni7212]

hearing poor Etta cry at the beginning, just broke my heart, glad to she has such good owners.
