I can totally understand you. My father rescued a German Shepherd puppy from a kennel. She was the only puppy among several male dogs and was completely emaciated. The male dogs also appeared neglected. Since my father didn't know how quickly the public order office would intervene, he bought the puppy, brought her to safety and then called the public order office. The employees took all the dogs out of the kennel. She was such an adorable and loyal dog. She is living behind the rainbow since 1997, my father died only two years later.

Came home in a lot of pain. She gently nose butted and kissed me constantly for days as if to comfort and encourage me (she doesn't do this normally). Will never ever forget that.

We searched for an owner, but not one came forward or posted her as missing. I fell in love with my Molly from day one. We realized she had been born with hip dysplasia..both sides, of course. When she was a year old, she had a total hip replacement on the left hip. She’s been nonstop ever since. She’s been such a blessing and the most loving sweet dog I’ve ever had. She’s definitely the diva of the house and the boss of her beagle brother! I love what you are doing for these poor homeless dogs! Breaks my heart to hear their stories, but the work you do to find them loving homes fills it up just as fast. Love, from Kim (mom) and Molly (the rescued GSD that has enriched mom’s life 100%)

Poor baby. Yes she will come around. I took in a Shepard Animal Control was going to put down because with fight or flight she got fight. They kept her two days and that was it. I had been contacted by her owner whom I knew. He didn’t want to relinquish her but was forced to. I took her and it only took me two days for her to settle in. Bare in mind I had all day every day to be there with her. This girl will come around too. I’m sure she’ll make someone a wonderful dog.

Oh sweet Rippy….i pray that she finds a family soon or maybe even a foster so she can be in a home so she can relax and be okay with a bath or playing or whatever. She deserves it. Thank you Rocky and team for working so hard to help these dogs. ❤❤❤

My dog, who was a shepherd mix, decided that 8 of my shoes were asking for it, one of each pair, and rather than chew the whole thing, she was smart enough to do them in just enough that I couldn’t wear them ever again and leave. Strap on one, heel on another. And only one of each pair😂

They are grieving from being torn away from their family and put into a dark cold hard noisy environment.

So how else are dogs who are rescued able to be helped when they are lost or abandoned?

@@FreebornLivingWoman please don't think I'm saying it's okay.... What I was trying to convey here is the reason some dogs act like this is because they have had their whole lives uprooted and destroyed because of something they don't understand. In no way am I saying that putting them in these kennels is a bad thing as it keeps them safe and allows them to be cared for. I am empathetic to their situation and understand why some are acting like this.

She relaxes after a while. She needs a family and the video will help find one. Thank you for spotlighting Rippy.
