It's called, "Empty the shelter" event that is held every year.

[@prettyeyestruecrimeparanormal]

I pray my kids grow up & have as much respect & heart as yours do!! You're an INCREDIBLE father!!! Thanks for all u do Omar!!

[@amandagoodspeed6966]

I just adopted a puppy from a rescue were I live!! ❤️❤️🐶

[@iloveallofmykids3329]

I just adopted a kitty a week ago from a shelter where I live and I love him to pieces already

[@mavila2013]

I have 3 rescued cats...1 my family rescued themselves.. 2 some other people rescued

[@yvonnewilson3768]

Gimme a kiss omar 💋😘

[@brigetteturner9091]

Me too! lol

[@purplegypsy8322]

You need to know that puppies at "puppy stores" are also from puppy mills and just as likely to be ill and dying. Never buy from puppy/pet stores

[@anitahoward4314]

Not all stores. Our pet store has shelter pets for adoption. I know because they post their cards and to adopt them you have to go to the shelter.

[@martinemikita9281]

How about... buy or adopt.... up 2 u. I bought a 3,000.00 puppy. Worth every penny. Exactly the breed and demeanor that we needed for our family. Whether u buy or adopt, do what's right for ur family. I mean why have kids then if there are children in the system waiting to be adopted.... same principal... do what's right for ur family!!!

[@pattymacleod1210]

The pet stores where I live have pets that they get to have in their stores from local shelters, the pets still are the shelter's until adopted.

[@jelinaangel]

Yes but at the same time, they need care and if somebody is willing to spend the money to get them fixed so they live their life without so many complications then that’s great too

[@jelinaangel]

Puppies at puppy stores need love too

[@christieinaz2923]

I look for older dogs that I can give a forever home to to make their last years great. They are the hardest to adopt out. I love going to show them love too ❤️

[@groovyhippiechick]

I love this video and how y'all care so much about animals! This is a good way to teach kids about how to save an animal. I feel bad for that kitty, that her owner died! 😞

[@angelbabyolvera3089]

Dame beso! Positivity, love and peace, Fam.

[@marywilliams341]

The cages those puppies were in at that puppy store were awful

[@aniegonzalez1898]

Mary Williams right. I hate seeing them have to be on those grates. How uncomfortable, after a while they start to deform the puppies paws too.

[@jenniferpoulin7076]

That makes me so so sad. Places like that should be illegal. Those are horrible conditions for any animal to be living in. No doubt in my mind that they are from puppy mills. :(

[@judycee4]

I needed this today, thanks guys❤️

[@twobones8603]

Omar you and ur kids are amazing human beings for giving animals some love.. I totally admire you and ur kids for doing that..God Bless You Guys. Much love and respect from Lisa in Australia..

[@donnytucker]

Thanks for showing the Largo SPCA. And yes, they sometimes have farm animals outside. Horses, cows, etc.

[@tiffanymorgan2683]

It's so awesome that most of the dogs and cats at the shelter had been adopted. Pray they all get a home. Great video, love the animals.

[@jerrilynkryznel6259]

Omar is such a good person and a great dad and what a human keep up the good fight for life thanks

[@anitahoward4314]

[@kelsieyork144]

Heyyy Omaaar I hope ur having a great day today YESS another great video and I hope you had a very Merry Christmas love ya Omar always appreciated 😘😘

Thanks for making my night with another video hope you have a great 2020 sending blessings and positive vibes your way love that you have a kind heart for animals always appreciate everything that you do much love

[@jantunes1437]

OMG I am in love I wish I had a huge Farm I would have took all those dogs and kitties from the shelter they were all so sweet and so happy especially after what God only knows what they have been through 💕😘

[@MaryP74]

It breaks my heart to see them all jammed in them little cages with wire bottoms.. that must hurt their feet after days in that.

[@janicewebb9078]

Was thinking that also, didnt like it

[@debbiemc55]

I agree. Our silky came from a home where they kept her in a wire bottom cage. The cage was grody looking. She has not been in a cage since. We love her and even got her a pom-chi sister to keep company. They were no longer wanted by owners and so were free to us. I knew someone that knew someone and it was both blessings for us.

[@jelinaangel]

Exactly!! Their paws would hurt so much !!! Nothing soft to lie on!! Somebody bring light to this 😡😡

[@janicewebb9078]

Why cant they put a soft bed in there for them

[@handwovendaisy1174]

At the animal shelter I volunteer at we have pet beds and blankets for the animals. And no wired bottoms on the cages. Lots of room for them to move around.

[@jewlzthefam5744]

Ahhhhhh noooooo I missed the live premier! Watching now, I can tell I am about to LOVE this video! Thank you for spreading knowledge to everyone on this topic ❤

[@peggyparsons83]

I pray all these babies (all dogs no matter how old are babies) get adopted. ALL dogs should have a nice loving home.

[@jewlzthefam5744]

I work inside of petsmart and their adoption events are awesome! I definitely recommend going to shelters instead of buying from a breeder. Melia has a gift with animals, I can tell!! She should consider the animal field, she would rock at it!! If you want a hyper cat, get a Bengal! They are absolutely beautiful and they have wild spirits!! Poor Ethan, omg! Getting bit by an animal can be really scary... hubby just got lunged at by a dog that showed hardly any warning signs and now he's super hesitant before he pets a dog. That guy really should have had warning signs up or something... that could have been a kid! That sun conure was stunning!!! I love conures🥰😍 and OMG that Corgi puppy!!! That Frenchie!! That Bassett Hound!!!! I could go on all dayyyy🤣🤣 I LOVE this video dude!!

[@ursaltydog]

Lola is purrrfect! She actually responds to her name! Very unusual for a cat.. I think she'd let Luna know who's boss :)

[@nicolesweica7259]

That puppy place was so sad. What a huge difference from the shelters. You could see the love and care the shelter dogs and the other animals are given, opposed to those poor puppies in small cramped cages, no blankets/toys or bedding. Thank you Omar though for sharing this amazing video and for your message of love for all living beings. God bless🤗💕

[@cookieberger7464]

You're such a good dad, Omar. I love the respect you show your kids and obvious love for them.

[@Ingrid-mmkd]

That golden doodle really warmed to you, the way he was before you picked him up compared to after! 💕

[@conservativehippie9736]

I'm in the pet industry....26+ yrs....done lots of rescues....THANK YOU for DOING THIS AND EDUCATING PEOPLE!!!!!!!!! ADOPT!!!💯💯💯 ❤✌🐾🐶🐱🐐🙂

[@settleschris1965]

Stop buying 2000.00 dogs!! Lots of dogs need families, adopt!!! Stop mills.

[@winendesertrose]

People creating designer breeds and selling them at ridiculous prices. Seriously 2000 for a dog. It's been years but you used to be able to get a decent riding horses for that. Still it absurd. And con artists take advantage of people.

[@cottoncandyog5272]

@Volkfire, Yes true i love all dogs all animal's but, my choice is German shepherds 😘 and, they are not cheap but, they are all worth it..👍😘

[@Electronicmedium1111]

chris settles I agree. Unless and until all the shelters are empty, and unless your a licensed breeder, it should be a felony if your dog or cat has babies. Period. 😡

[@jameswilliamsjr6202]

Amen!!

[@susanmusnicki8583]

Amen❤❤

[@anyashaf]

I personally have tried to foster or adopt sporting breed dogs from our local rescues/shelters and they are so strict with their rules to foster or adoption it makes it a horrible experience to just adopt an animal that needs a good home. These things did not only happen to me but to other people who have eventually come to me for a puppy and relayed their experiences. I train bird dogs for a living. I breed litters once in a great while. Buying from a breeder isn't a bad thing but make sure you do your homework not only about the breed you want to purchase but also about the breeder. Ask for references, health testing and guarentees that protect everyone; the dog, the buyers and the breeders. Ask to go visit the breeder and see the parents of the puppies. But main thing is proof of health testing.

[@norcaligirl8579]

Thanks for being an influence Omar and family. Adopt don't buy. Tons of fur babies in shelters waiting to be loved. And make sure you get them spayed or neutered. It matters!

[@snugglesbear9811]

I hope these dogs will get a loving family soon and a place they will call forever home. ❤ Back home in the Philippines, we used to own lots of dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. Now, my dad and brother has only dogs (subdivision restrictions). Missing the good old days. 😊😘

[@antonsinclair5616]

"Oh look they got a fly for adoption" 20:36 lmfao you gotta love Omar. He's 1 in a million!!!

[@gratefulgram]

Hi Malia, thank you for bringing awareness for these puppies 🐶 you all rock 👍

[@krazykatlady2393]

Great video Omar!! People need to be aware of the dangers of buying a puppy from a store. Most come from puppy mills unless. It’s very sad. There are so many dogs out he that we need to stop breeding designer dogs. ❤️

[@SharonMB88]

So sad those puppies were sitting in these cages with a wrong floor, must be so painful walking on that.

[@jelinaangel]

Sharon .MB I was thinking the same like they’re paws would hurt standing on a cage all damn day!!! That’s abuse!! 😡😡

[@stephaniegarcia2489]

Omar I agree with giving any animal a second chance. Especially from a shelter. I volunteer at a shelter in UT and I ALWAYS tell people to foster/adopt from shelters. That’s were I will currently get my other dogs from. People don’t understand that animals have feelings too.

[@jelinaangel]

I don’t know how you go to these shelters, I’d be crying everytime... but I’m glad you shed light on this and you do this for puppies ..

[@libbylou0421]

So adorable and makes my heart warm knowing that all them doggies got adopted💗 That poor kitty with the nose doesnt look so good. She is a Tabby kitty. My kitty is a Tabby kitty too and when I first got him as a kitty his nose was almost the same way. Idk if it's when they're stressed out cause that's how my kitty was. Malia is such a great young lady for wanting to adopt any animal she can and your such a great dad for letting her adopt animals when u guys can. What's amaizing is you having two homes that have enough space for all your doggies. You guys are amaizing overall. Happy New Year to u and your Family! 💗

[@MarieMarie-ew7yy]

This so breaks my heart! How ppl can just put animal away. So much love to you Omar, thank you for sharing this!

[@stopanimalcruelty298]

Uk we don’t have cats or dogs in shops for sale , thank goodness. It’s a terrible thing . The shop cages are all tiny 😾

[@SuperSunnyday2009]

There was a place but it got stopped , in crewes hill

[@Tom68446]

Omar, I understand why it's important not to go to the independent 🐕 and 🐱 businesses but so many people don't understand about how important it is to go through the whole animal adoption process. I've heard of so many people who don't go through the process because of other pets that they have at home. Some have too many pets that's how they get neglected. You have to have space for your pets. Good video and helpful information about how to be a honest loving let owner.😊 Happy New Year!

[@aussiemozzie2515]

Hey Omar, Rescue"s ALL THE WAY! Never buy puppies online or in pet shops. In Australia to rescue from the RSPCA you have to meet certain criteria. For large dogs you must agree to a yard inspection.

[@janicewebb9078]

Go to a shelter, so many animals need a home, nice of you Omar to show people, this is a lovely shelter. ❤🇬🇧❤

[@mitchchardonnay]

Merry Christmas to you and your Kids 🎄Omar! You make looking forward to 2020 really Exciting. Thanks for your vlogs❤️Watching from New Zealand with love ❤️

[@izoraiza7169]

I had a dog... I didn't get him from a shelter, pet store, or online... Someone had a male pomeranian that got loose... This dog was muddy and in need of some serious help... We found him and then we found the owner... The previous owner left him outside in any weather condition and feeding him only leftovers... He was also almost always coughing... This dog's name was Toby and we kept his name the same as it was before... We were just given him for free after finding him and trying to return him to his owner... We took good care of him and he had a medical condition that made him cough alot... He took medicine for his medical condition... He just ended up getting worse over time and about 7 years later he ended up dying.... I really miss him a lot even though it's been longer than 4 months since he passed away... I loved him a lot but he was very old and his time came... I sometimes end up crying when I'm alone in my room at night because I tend to think about him... Btw my mom wanted to get rid of him multiple times but we kept him because I wanted to keep him. I just couldn't let someone else get him and possibly put him down because of his medical condition or age...

[@ArtsyAshley]

Omg that golden doodle at the end I would not be able to resist him. He was so lovey! And he was so relaxed in your arms.

Thx Omar I thoroughly enjoyed the tour with you me being such an animal lover to the max like yourselves. There were so many I wanted to adopt if only I were there in Florida too. Our animals here in NZ are so dam expensive to buy compared to the costs over there. Tis no wonder they struggle to get homes for them. Love you heavenly for aiding adoptions for animals like this. Hope your xmas was awesome like ours was. May the New Year bring a safe, healthy & prosperous New Year for you all & thank you once more, 😘gimme a kiss🤗🥰

[@pjeverett360]

Thank you for educating all of us!!!I totally agree...shelter animals are the BEST...I truly believe they feel VERY fortunate to have a forever home...I just had to put down my 15 yr old rescue...She really rescued me..She had so many health issues..I feel we provided her with a very loving/healing home..She came from a shelter in San Clemente, CA...Near where the Marines do a lot of drills..Guns go off, etc. She was on anxiety meds..I weined her off of them.I want to believe Tess felt very blessed being here with usRIP Tessie Love you Omar and family Kisses right back at you xoxoxo 🌺 🧜 PS love mermaids too

[@alaholloman6517]

We rescued a Maltese from a pet store 10 years ago. She was 6 months and I found out they were going to put her down. She was a sweet little girl. She had extreme anxiety all her life and health problems. She had to be put to sleep in November. It broke my heart to lose her. It’s so great to help the ones that were in need. We have 2 dogs still and we’ve had 2 fosters that we helped find forever homes.

Hi Omar, love the video, I love animals, especially dogs, I had a corgi when I was young , he was called Tudor, he lived until he was 16, that golden doodle was lovely, just like a teddy bear. It so sad about the puppy farms, we have the same problem over here in Britain, when I watch videos about dogs in kennels I just want to adopt them all, Melia loves animals she is so good with them, I hope Ethan’s finger is not too sore, love to your kids and love to you, keep safe until the next time.💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️

[@Uniquely-Unoriginal]

Like others mentioned, the dogs at the stores a lot of times do come from mills, they just look healthier. Also, like that Lab pup that Ethan was holding that was $2000 - that is a total Pet Store rip off price. You can adopt from a shelter or rescue for a lot less - most (here in Canada) have their shots, microchips (which by the way cost only about $10 for the shelter/vet/spca/rescue to buy plus the cost of the "gun" and scanner if they are needed) and if they are old enough, spayed and neutered. Just as an FYI - if someone says the dog is a purebred but no papers are supplied, then it is a "Single Breed" - it is only a purebred when the certified papers accompany the dog/puppy. Anyway, I can keep rambling about this stuff, but this is long enough so...clicking Comment now lol.

[@theofficegoddess01]

Omar, I love love love this video!!! 💜 "Puppy stores" are BAD! Very bad! No REPUTABLE breeder will EVER sell to a puppy store! Reputable breeders are amazing people...their purpose is to keep the aspects of the breed pure. And I live the fact that you promote adopting from shelters. Great video!
