A friend of mine walked past a neglected dog everyday that tied in a yard, far from the house.This was in Minnesota and it's gets well below zero in the winter. One day he knocked on the door and told the guy "I'm taking your dog." and the guy was like ok. That dog never left my friend's side, he didn't need a leash, and lived a good 10 years, loved.

Very good off you good person done same ❤❤

[@claire6795]

There was a cat locked in. It was in a stinking mess with no food, it's owner kept going away and leaving it for a week or two!. The owner had her children taken away for abuse and neglect. People were posting food through the door for the cat. The skinny cat scratched at the window. Some workmen accessed the flat for repairs they were overcome with ammonia and upset at the poor cat and it's mess all over. The owner kept getting visits from the RSPCA called by the workmen. They gave "advice", the owner said they would do better but they never did and left it again. People were posting food again. One day the police visited questioning if I knew who had broken in next door. I didn't know anything. They asked to see my CCTV it had been switched off! Kevin the cat "renamed after Home Alone" sent a postcard and photo! He is living his best life in a large house, with lots of cuddles, treats and a fluffy bed & toys!! ... Mission accomplished !!

I think Lee is so exceptional. Most ppl would hear the noises that husky was making and run for the hills. Lee just remains calm and understands it’s because he’s a vocal breed, overstimulated in that moment and under stimulated in general.

They are talkers….. I had one and she always had to have that word, she kayaked, hiked and did everything with me. I once had ranger at a State Park camping, come up to me regarding a growling dog, then met her and it was fine. She was the best home protector ever…. That growl meant “there is nothing to see her” keep on going….. She also never had 1 dog fight or any aggression, sweet to kitties and small dogs, kids.

[@rebeccathuesen3587]

@@felinelvr27 It's so odd to me, I absolutely expected constant talking and singing, when I adopted a Husky-Samoyed mix. I've had her for 6 months, and have probably heard her say something about once a week on average, unless it's in her sleep. THEN she can bark. She's the quietest dog I've ever had! The tiniest bit disappointed, actually, I was quite looking forward to having a dog that would answer me when I talked to it, lol.

I grew up with about 40 Siberian Huskies in my backyard and two liters of puppies every spring once I was old enough to carry a bucket of water it was my job to take care of all of them all summer long that meant getting up at 7:00 in the morning and feeding the two mothers of the two litters of puppies that were very close to the house actually I could hear one of the mother's crying because she knew she was going to get fed and then the other dogs the other adult dogs were put up way up into the woods because we had no shade where they were and we didn't put boxes up there they dug huge holes in the dirt and they love laying in that dirt and there was a stream up there that I could damn up and get nice great water for them I would clean up around them every day I'd give them clean water every day and if somebody spilled their bucket of water they got another bucket later on and once the puppies were weaned the two litters will put together and we put them way up a hill half of a mountain I guess you'd call it and it was a huge pen and we put them all in there and it was difficult for me to feed them because I had a long walk to go and I would have pans of food for them and in the morning they got hot food which I cooked in my mother's stove and they were all waiting for me and I would count every one of them to make sure they were all there and then the rest of the litters I would make sure that they got in on the food because usually they get knocked away by the other dogs or the other puppies, our dogs and puppies were well cared for and we loved all of them especially one that meant a lot to me his name was Timmy of gat now and he was my father's lead dog when he would go racing he started racing when he was 10 years old in Canada and then when he went to veterinarian school his father sold all the dogs and then when he got married to my mother my mother claim that she knew nothing about any dogs at all haha he got her on that one I guess. So glad these owners gave up the dog I think it is so cruel for someone to do that to an animal and as far as I'm concerned they should never ever own another animal again, have a good life Joey!!!

I had two Twins, black and white looked exactly like Joey! Then I went back and got his Sister. Their Sister , the last in the litter was Solid White. I had a big nice home for them to come in anytime they wanted. But only 2 acres for them to play and run. They were diggers, so I had a 8 ft. Chain length fence put up around the entire property. Also electric wire buried deep around the entire place. They knew it was there, so they never got zapped or hurt. I went to another town, and found 3⃣ more Solid White Huskies. They had tons of toys, and they loved their swimming pools. I fed them very nutrious food. They were all so happy and Beautiful. I still miss them everyday.

Thanks for including the original owner in that shout out. I think a lot of people get stuck in the mind-set where they don't see their treatment of the animal as bad or under-delivering on their life needs. When they're confront with the prospect of surrendering the animal, it becomes a big hurdle for them, requiring them to come to terms with the fact that they are not caring for the animal sufficiently. I think if we can all remain understanding and compassionate with the owners as well as the animals, we can help everyone end up in a better place without needing to make judgement calls.

[@lucys8425]

Joey's is such a handsome husky. Lee is so right on Joey's behavior. Having my 3rd northern breed (husky and malamute) for many many years, i can see some of the warning signs. Seeing Joey growling like that suddenly without a reason is very alarming, but I can also see the potentials in him. He is still somewhat good enough that he would stop when Lee told him "enough" and eventually calmed down. That alone is pretty amazing given how he has been neglected in the backyard. Snow won't harm him given that he has double coats if there's a shelter, but the darn rainy seasons in Oregon can be dreadful for sure.

[@deanschneck723]

Yes, Lucys - and Lee did not let Joey be in charge - Lee is truly a dog whisperer. The dogs are not threatened by him and his calm demeanor, and this was the first time both of them met. Lee is not afraid and dogs always sense fear in humans. Amazing. The dogs respect Lee. We do, too.

What does God have to do with the situation of a dog. Thanks to this wonderful guy. Millions of dogs in the world die in the most horrible conditions. When God saves every unfortunate animal and person in the world, I will be the first to thank him. Of course, that will never happen because god doesn't exist, so all the responsibility is on us. I've personally saved several hundred animals and I don't think I've done enough. People believe that god is omnipotent, which means that misfortune would not exist only if he willed it.

[@GentleGiant...]

Bellerive it or Not doesn't mean God exists or Not. You're right that it's up to us to treat nature, animals and one another in the short time we get to live. Big Bang or whatever you belive doesn't matter nor what I believe. Wars starts this way!

I want to know more about those "owners". Why were they abusing the dog?

[@jennysmith8835]

owners selfless, why were they so cruel ????

[@TheNoonie50]

@@jennysmith8835 I agree it was a cruel situation for this high energy dog, but they could have easily refused to surrender the dog, and that's the way I meant selfless. I've done dog rescue for many years when I had my farm. If the animal was fed, and not in imminent danger, the animal shelter could not confiscate them, and many times we saw dogs barely surviving, and we could do nothing.

[@mikebas7325]

Just where Joey needs to be. Precious pup goes from being around nobody just cooped up in the backyard to now running free with a whole pack of other pups. Just awesome...

[@deborahklinlger8565]

Lee was right to handle this dog with gentle but firm leader of the pack training & kindness. Many breeds of dogs are in fact working dogs. They have alot of energy to spend & work off. He is a gorgeous dog & those eyes are so crystal blue. Huskies are vocal dogs. Great job to the neighbor who saved him.

[@jancooke272]

Lee is so brave. He tackles unsocialised and potentially dangerous dogs, but he never backs off. The neighbour here was a godsend for Joey.

[@jessiecampbell1086]

It's incredible that you have 25-30 dogs in your house at any one time, and yet there's no noise!?!? I mean..... none whatsoever! I'll say it again...Incredible.. Lee... You are an inspiration and a leading light into the care & welfare of pets. ❤🐕‍🦺❤🐕❤🐈❤🐑❤🐖❤🐄❤🐴❤🐓❤🐐❤🦙❤🐾

[@Tensen01]

This is something that strikes me every video. it really is a testament to what he's doing how well behaved they all are.

[@Gaius__]

I'm sure there is plenty of noise, especially at playtime. But Lee is an expert, so he knows how to exhaust his fellows and make them calm and happy. Then, it's recording time.

[@videoettaceo8900]

Hi Lee, thanks for all you do! God bless you and all watching this. Take care of yourself 💕 ❤️ 🐶 🙀

[@debbies2952]

Thank you to the lady who did something to help Joey she followed thru. I'm so happy Joey has a new beginning in having a better quality of life. No dog deserves to be neglected.Thank you Asher House fir coming to Joey's rescue.

What a beautiful dog! Thank God that last didn't give up, and thanks to you Asher house for giving him the gateway to a better life! May God bless you in all you do!

[@DanieVargas]

Aw Lee… let’s be realistic. Joey is home for good. I know it. You know it. The pack knows it. Joey NEEDS the pack after how many years of isolation!? Come on… acknowledge it. Joey is home.

[@brendablantz5771]

Lol. Yeah, tell him the truth!

[@leslieayers4484]

I worship this man! His kindness & generosity towards abused & unwanted animals is the greatest love of all! We need so many more people exactly like him & The Asher House!

[@wb-usmcret.2337]

As an avid Husky Dad these are very special Dogs. They need a lot more attention than most due to how intelligent they are. I rescued my current Boy 8 years ago and can count on one hand how many times we've been apart. This is an awesome story and hope Joey finds lots of love. Bravo Bravo 👏

Poor Joey, Now lee has intervened he’ll get the life he needs!! In paradise & lots of friends to play with! Thanks Lee💗

Oh welcome Joey !!!!! Love seeing him safe inside next to the fire with the pack. Thank you Lee :)

This beautiful husky deserves a beautiful life not with the owner ... she's SELFISH!!! I'm excited that she surrendered him ... 🙏 You & your staff have a great huge heart ❤️ 💙!!! God speed with all of you!!!

[@transplantman2287]

I love that you explain how this neglect can lead to aggression and then IMMEDIATELY we see it: the dog is so bored and then overstimulated by having new people around that he starts growling and going nuts. He has no outlets and can’t regulate himself or burn off that energy at all. He’ll get all the exercise he needs now!!

[@Gemstar_70]

Joey was so excited that he couldn't help but jump for joy onto Lee! I'm so happy for Joey who will now have the best loving family and home forever!!! ❤ 🐶❤ 🐶

[@rachelmayes298]

My whippet and I are snuggled in bed watching this together. I am so glad the neighbours were feeding him, and caring for him. They are two wonderful angels 👼 I always give my boy extra cuddles and have a tear of happiness when watching Lees videos. Why was she even keeping the poor boy? He needs so much TLC and love and Lees the one to make it happen.

[@shinjuinoue6600]

Seeing Joey finally at peace with everything enjoying chewing on a stick he found sooo contentedly, brought a smile 😊 to my face because he is where he belongs with you Lee and it all happened because the lady cared enough to help him get to you💯👍💗💖

[@maureenpaul8991]

I just wanted to say kudos to the woman who got involved to save Joey's life. I also want to thank Lee from the bottom of my heart for going above and beyond for rescuing Joey from the horrible life he was living and showing him how life could be. God bless you and all your pack animals.

[@naomiarram5187]

"Foster, of course" Right, yup. Considering what he's been through, and how huskies can react, he's a very good natured pup!

[@mngirl6728]

I can’t tell you how emotional this video was for me. God bless those neighbors for not giving up on Joey and for Lee giving the owner the confidence to give her dog the best life a dog could have. Joey hit the dog jackpot going to the Asher House and he deserves every glorious minute of it.

[@annaelisavettavonnedozza9607]

God bless everyone involved❤ That family should never ever be allowed to have another dog. That Husky needed to RUN & be with a pack. They didn’t care about him at all. Disgusting

[@peacenow4456]

Wonderful! We rescued a beautiful big golden in same situation. At 6yrs old, she was so undernourished she ate rocks and had nearly worn her front teeth to the gums. She couldn't run or jump for a long time. Eventually she gained most of her strength back, but always needed help getting into back of station wagon. With good diet and exercise and love and doggy friends, she had a good life w us til her time came at 12. A blessed dog. We didn't stop there. Next was a year old Basset. We learned they can't swim, too heavy w short legs, so be careful there. May be same reason ur bulldog is afraid of water. They r too heavy w short legs. Hugs CH

[@crazydaisyog3984]

Welcome Joey!! He has no idea how great his future is. 💛

[@mmmmlllljohn]

May God bless the woman who wouldn’t give up on Joey. What a hell of an existence he had by being left outside all the time without enough food. Lee will work his magic and Joey - who is a beautiful boy - will have his best life! ❤️🇨🇦

[@nancyprohira2571]

My parents brought home a dog that had never been inside a home and was tied up outside for over 2 years. I still remember my dad clipping away the dreadlocks hanging off him. It took him all day for us to see he was a miniature poodle. He became a very loved house pet and the love of my mom's life. Jasper lived on for another 20 years. I will never forget him and the joy he brought to our family.

[@janicesanchez8257]

I’m so glad you rescued Joey! Our daughter has huskies. I can’t imagine no life other than a small backyard with little or no people or other dogs contact. Joey was blessed the two neighbors fed him and were instrumental in getting you involved so he could be a husky with the pack🐾🐾❤️

[@soonmoo614]

What a gorgeous dog. Too bad the owner didn't understand what an unbelievable gift that they had and protect, love and treasure him like they should have. You are an earth angel Lee. You and everyone who dedicates their lives to helping, saving and rescuing animals. If anyone reading this works with animals, I want to thank you and remind you of what a special person that you are. Not everyone can do this kind of work and you musn't ever forget how extraordinarily special and needed you are!

[@emilypizante6698]

The most amazing part about this video is in the beginning, when most people would see in the dog getting aggressive with you, you don’t flinch in your assertion without needing the dogs aggression level. The reason you’re able to save so many of these animals is because of the level of alpha you’re able to provide them with.❤

[@1daisychaingirl]

So Beautiful to watch this dog rescue . Teary to begin with and teary to finish for different reasons! Packed with lessons! Thankyou Lee.

As someone who owns three huskies, the living situation of that boy was horrible. My yard is probably 5x that size (at least), we take them on walks, and they still want more exercise! Joey is such a beautiful boy, and I’m so glad he’s under (or was under, if he’s found his forever home) the Asher Family Roof!! ❤
