Be a samurai and cry! Tears are strong, they give you power, strength and balance of mind, body and soul. Tears weep out (heavy) toxicants that build up in your body. Holding your tears is essentially poisoning yourself (physically and mentally) wich makes you weaker. Are men weak? Are men sheep? Ban unhealthy social constructs from your life. Trust me, you feel so much better/free than before. PS, I love how you wrote honest about this. This was a tearjerker for me too. This is the good kind of trauma you can give your kids. These kids will definitely know what a kill shelter is and does for the rest of their lives, wich is good as they will be part of the solution not the problem when they grow up.

[@fashiondiva6972]

These beautiful little girls have wonderful, kind hearts. Their parents have done well instilling good values like showing concern for others-people and animals. Loving and caring for a pet has a major impact on childhood/adolescent development and. Teaching the concept of responsibility can be difficult but pet ownership demonstrates the concept perfectly. A child raised with pets they help care for are better able to empathize, express their emotions in a healthy way and learn the importance of being responsible for someone other than themselves. I’m yet to meet an adult who regrets having had any of their childhood pets.

[@felixcat9318]

Excellent observation.

[@georgina-a]

Totally agree! Their parents should be so proud. Those girls didn't make this adoption about them once, either. In every clip they were focused on Rosie's needs over their own - they wanted her so that they could save her life, or they wouldn't pick one 'favourite' thing about her, instead loving her as a whole for who she is. I didn't hear "she does this for me" or "I want" once. Kids like that - full of sweetness, kindness, selflessness and empathy - give me hope for the future.

[@maggiefelisberto5281]

It's really hard, but especially in cities, there just aren't the resources available to the shelters and rescues. Almost all shelters operate partially or entirely on donations and volunteer work, and without enough community support, shelters suffer. Kitten Lady has a good video on her channel about "kill shelters" vs. "no-kill shelters" that really gets into why so many shelters end up having to put animals down

[@JustKelso1993]

You have to realize how many animals are taken to shelters on a daily basis, there literally aren't enough space and resources. Most shelters do have a time limit to give the animals as much time as they can to get adopted but sadly they cannot keep them forever, especially if they have too many coming in as opposed to getting adopted out. I highly suggest to anybody going to adopt a shelter pet to ask which ones are closer to the euthanization date, it gives the most chance to save as many as possible.

[@kristina7296]

It's about compassion and love. I live in a big city and our shelter is big as well. It's forbidden to euthanize animals without a medical reason. People donate enough and the city council supports the shelter. Many people adopt animals nowadays more than ever. I just realised how lucky I'm here. I adopted too btw. Let's hope, that your country will change its politics and we all will learn that every living being is holy.

This mother is not only a Hero to Rosie but to her Daughters! This is the a lesson and action that these two girls will never forget!

[@malloryg4251]

That's what I was thinking!! Mom is giving her daughters the gift of compassion and kindness. They will be better people for it when they grow up : )

[@geraldmiller5232]

dumb animals are not dumb. they have senses that we no longer have. adopt a shelter animal. you will never regret it.

Thank you for being so sweet and so kind specially for giving Rosie a forever family. The girls are so angelic. Kudos to both you and your husband.. You raised both of them well. May God shower you with more blessings. Take care always beautiful family.

This is over a year ago…and your daughters are simply beautiful in their affection for Rosie…. their delight made me cry!I 🇳🇿🇳🇿🐑🐑NZ

Well this sure was a very sweet story of a dog being adopted,and it's just so sweetm

We adopted a black lab from the animal shelter after they told us she would probably be euthanized because she was 8 years old and was a bigger dog and most ppl want small puppies. Best thing we ever did, she gave us 6 wonderful years. She was the sweetest, most gentle dog ever. Shelter dogs still have so much love to give, so sad they're overlooked 💔

[@kev7161]

A lot of people who live in rentals or condos and can have pets have the stipulation that they be small dogs under a certain amounts of pounds when full grown. I love big ol' gentle dogs like this, but can't have one due to my condo rules.

[@pegster6]

Our kids/grandkids almost 3 years ago adopted a 2 yr. old shelter dog (pittie/lab mix) who had been abused and had also spent a year on the streets. Khai is AMAZING, a fantastic guard dog, loves to run and play, and is as happy as can be. Rescuing an animal can transform your life!

[@batsonelectronics]

I got my black lab from the shelter also, he lived to be 17. I held him as the vet put him to sleep. He gave me all he had but his spinal arthritis had gotten so bad it hurt him to move. ( nothing could be done ) The worst day of my life and I still think about him daily. He died in 2010. All dogs are awesome but labs will always be special to me. I have never met a mean Labrador.

[@kumi9479]

@@batsonelectronics same for ours, she had arthritis to the point she wouldn't be able to get up and hemangiosarcoma, unfortunately we had to let her go

[@citygirlingraham]

I also adopted a black lab/chow chow mix from the shelter. What a amazing dog he is. I still can’t believe someone would give him away. His personality is wonderful, no training needed.

Gave me whiplash when the little girl had my name... so cute!!

[@lilyowen5756]

Kill shelters should NOT exist. Thank you so much! Rosie seems so happy.

[@rajeshsogun2953]

I think puppy mills should not exist just because of them these shelter dogs get euthanized.

[@hannypressley343]

I watch all these rescue videos but i gotta say Rosie got the perfect family.

[@abrahamkim1078]

There’s no feeling better than being an “everything” to a Lab. The most noble and loyal dog there is. R.I.P., Tillman. You were my everything.

[@maryoleary2037]

I had a Lab for sixteen years. You are correct. They are as noble and loyal as they come. Any family wanting a dog that will be great with children should consider a Lab.

[@maureenobrien9815]

Abraham...what a lovely pure expression of love. I bet Tillman was wonderful.

[@lonelyronin2428]

I got a half lab. She loves me, but will ignore me in favor of food. No food, then love and eyebrow grooming. So, half loyalty? Eh, still nice to experience.

[@SweetColo]

You will see Tillman again Abraham …I promise💟💟💟

[@lenaalways932]

This the most wholesome family I have ever seen. When she went to say thank you to her mom before anything else says so much about the person she is at such a young age too. Then the kindness from both girls before even getting her is astonishing. Such a breath of fresh air.

[@JF-kv1gm]

Thank you to this beautiful family for giving Rosie a home, a dog companion and 2 compassionate and caring sisters. They are going to be so happy together. Rosie deserved this and you have saved her.

[@onceuponatimemydogslife2156]

This is one of the most heart moving videos of the dodo in the last year...not only because of how beautiful the dog, her gentleness and love...but the entire family irradiates such beauty, purity and integrity. The girls emotional encounter with the dog is so touching...their level of compassion and happiness turns out to break into the purest joy and gratitude towards their parents. Such a beautiful lesson of respect and love with only few words..hopefully many of us will learn from this kind of people and videos. Thank you for being so inspiring and irradiate the true love values you are living.. love,respect,compassion,gratitude,joy. Thats the way of being that can change the world for animals and humans...
