Birdie had a dark past but her future is so bright | The Asher House

Thanks to ‪@Subaru‬ for giving me the opportunity to spoil my girl Rosie with a one-on-one adventure day at the sanctuary. The “old” lady was considered an Underdog, but I think she’s doing just great. Tell me how you’re showing love to your rescue pets this #NationalMakeaDogsDay in the comments below. #Sponsored

God bless the lady who stepped in and gave $600, a phone and a tent to save Birdie from more abuse. She is a hero!

[@sg639]

Yes. She is a person changing the world with ACTIONS.

[@Ms.L.]

Wonderful angel!

[@louannwaters6691]

I agree completely! A true hero!

[@ipacarrollread]

Does anyone realize that the foster lady paid $600, a cell phone, and a tent to rescue this dog? Lee has all my respect but that lady is amazing, too. Even though she wasn’t a foster fail, she still wanted to make sure that the dog was safe. She was afraid to socialize the dog and recognized that the dog needed more than she could safely do. It takes someone who really loves animals to think how can I help this animal the most? And what the ever-loving hell, the abuse wasn’t bad ENOUGH? It’s okay to hurt an animal but not too much?!? Kudos to this rescuer and Asher House.

[@kp8381]

Sadly, it's in a city where they barely help the homeless, let alone the dogs.

[@FlashyJackie1]

I agree, the lady who got Birdie out of her first life situation is also a true HERO!

[@martensdcm]

Well said. So many need help, dogs and people.

[@r-anne7375]

I didn't know that Subaru helped to support Asher House ! Thank you Subaru and Lee for all the help with these beautiful dogs .

[@barbaracurtis1398]

What the heck........ she wasn't injured bad enough!!! What is "bad enough"??? Bless you for getting her, she'll have a wonderful life with Lee :-)

[@V3ganBr33]

I am the dogs previous owners sister. The one who called animal control. They told me she had no marks on her therefore they couldn't do anything at all. I found Birdies foster mom here locally and she helped me with making sure Birdie got out of there. I'm grateful to them ❤❤❤

German Shepherds r a very intelligent & loyal dog breeds. Go Rosie 🎉❤😊!!!!

[@shalacarter6658]

Bless the nice ladies for saving her!

[@laurawoods9965]

Thank you for all you do Lee! Rosie is gorgeous. My daughter found a German Shepherd that had been dumped on the side of the road. She is an absolutely beautiful dog. We chose to keep her knowing she is young and high energy. Luckily, we have had experience with this breed before. You are right, this breed needs a job and lots of activity. Our new dog loves to "patrol" the backyard and she gets tons of exercise. As the saying goes, "there are no bad dogs, only bad owners." Thank you for explaining all the different breeds and their different needs. Really wish people would do their research. Adopt, don't shop!

[@dahlyiadubonnet]

I love you for taking her in!!! I grew up in Germany with a German Shepherd/Wolf mix. She was very energetic and her job was to guard 6 yr old me and my 3yr old sister. Trust me, we were in very safe paws. There's a reason they're police and military dogs in Germany as well as Search & Rescue. Thank you for giving a wonderful puppy a life she deserves! ❤❤❤

[@ExtremelyRadiant]

Amen 🙏 ❤

[@margotleduc1507]

I didn't rescue a dog but a cat from our humane society in Canada. He is loved and he is very affectionate. I feel that I saved him and he is in a good home.

[@cindycarr3460]

Thank you for rescuing the kitty❤❤

[@terrireddish2522]

You most definitely saved the cat's life ❤,in my adult life I've always took in animals that needed a home (normally pets that have been passed around for years 😭) they come to me and live out the rest of their lives, anything from mice, ferrets, rabbits, birds to cats and dogs ❤ I'm just glad they feel love and happiness in their lives ❤

[@AllisonBlaise716]

Birdie looks so scared but you can see that she wants love as she nervously leans into Lee. I’m so happy that the powers that be found her way to the sanctuary. Soon she will have no memory of her dark past. Right now her best life begins. 💯❤️🐾

[@suewiese4977]

The best thing you could say is that every day is a new day for a dog…especially an abused dog❤️❤️❤️

[@LindaKing-nq6ut]

It’s wonderful to see how the pack greet & welcome a new dog to the pack

[@American_Honey]

Welcome to heaven birdie girl! Today is your day! Big hugs and sunshine mr.asher! 💌🫂🌞🌈

[@janetgorman3690]

I would never have thought of Rosie as an older dog! I mean, look at that energy!!

[@deerodriguez9466]

My rescued GS Lucy designated herself security guard of the property. We did not train her for this. She does laps around the property all day long, breaks for water, food, shade, naps for no more than 30 minutes at a time, and continues her very serious and important job. She alerts us to stranger danger but is all bark and no bite. German Shepard’s are the literal best.

[@terrireddish2522]

I love German shepherds, I had a long haired GS girl, I got her as a puppy from a advert and when she came to me she was so scared (woman who brought her didn't ask any questions and just wanted the money then left 😢) she was so gentle with my newborn son and my other mixed breed dog and other pets, she was a wonderful, my dad had German shepherds as well ♥️ Can everyone who sees the comment above with Asher house logo but clearly isn't them please report any them, I've reported them on some comments but it will help if we all report the fake accounts please ❤

[@ExtremelyRadiant]

THAT, is a true Guard Dog! ❤ He is bred to do that. Here in Arizona, people lock up bully breeds outside and never let them in. Alive burglar alarms. 😢

[@marshawalker5273]

Both of my dogs passed away, the first 8 years ago, and the second 3 years ago. I wish to get a third but I can't afford it and it hurts so bad that I can't. I hope to adopt from the shelter some day, and let the dog choose me. Happy Make a Dog Day, Lee. And thank you for taking care of Gaia's Furry Children. Much love and respect, brother.

[@kathymurphy7026]

Foster! Most rescues pay for everything for the pup and they have all ages 😊

[@kp8381]

I was just going to say that, foster if you can.

[@FlashyJackie1]

I admire you for making the choice to wait right now since you can't afford to adopt a dog. There are so many people facing the hard choice to give up their pets due to financial woes. I also suggest you talk to local rescue groups where you live - perhaps a long term foster can be arranged where they pay for food and vet care, it's worth looking at the options.

[@hildebt7988]

Fostering a dog is a good thing,, I am glad, that you know, that you just can’t afford another dog, lots of people, after they find out, how expensive an animal is, just dump them Hope, your situation gets better, so you can have your four legged companion again

[@kobenoah1]

Playing fetch with your gsd reminded me of my daughter-in-law little dog (chihuahua mix) flaying fetch while my Great Pyrenees watched. The last throw the little dog couldn’t find the stick. So my big boy got up and walked to the stick standing over it until Ollie came to get it. Was pretty cute :) dogs are awesome!

[@lindanelson3568]

I rescued a Beautiful German Shepard a year ago. She was dumped in the middle of nowhere. She was so afraid of people she had to be live trapped. She was estimated to be about 2 years old. She only weighed 48lbs had heartworm and a severe double ear infection. A pretty sick girl. The rescue did not take care of any of these issues before putting her up for adoption but we fell in love with her sweet nature and took her home anyway. I am happy to report she now weighs a healthy 72lbs has Beautiful ears and no more heart worm. Treatments were brutal but we made it. She is now so goofey and playful and happy. Another local rescue is trying to recruit me to foster German shepherds. I recommend getting a Shepard they are wonderful. I'm so glad I did. Thank-you Lee for what you do and the great videos keep them coming. Love you

Birdie's backstory is heart-breaking, and also inspiring. Thank you so much to the person who paid all that money to get Birdie free of that cruel jerk. Rosie looks like the perfect dog.

I happened to open my computer to the sweetest dog ever…I am 77, and wanted a senior, so we bonded immediately! I had shared when I lost my Tobey…..River (RIvy) had been found wandering the streets…all matted, but wouldn’t give up….not chipped! Tomorrow she has an appointment to be chipped! I paid $150 for my sweet baby, and intend to give her the best home ever! She sleeps between the pillows with me, and my hubby! I feel I honored my Tobey when I rescued Rivy! Watching you Lee with your babies tells me I am doing the right thing! I have enough love in my heart to love again after Tobey! Love to you all! Taffy’s Senior Rescue….Indianapolis Indiana!
