I sat down with Anja and Katrina and they told me all about there mission rescuing dogs. We specifically went over rescuing a breed many of you have been asking for, the Saint Bernard.
K-9 Heroes Rescue works with shelters to rescue abandoned animals that are scheduled to be destroyed. With a no-kill no-kennel approach, K-9 Heros Rescue cares for their animals in social groups in a home environment rather than caging them in kennels. We focus on socializing our animals, training them, and restoring them to good physical and mental health.
I'M A BIG FAN OF DJI DRONES AND CAMERAS, GREAT FOR GETTING AMAZING PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF YOUR DOGS.

This two women are literally a life saver. We need more people in this world just like them.. god bless you two …much Aloha’s too you both…🙏🏽

[@canecorsovlog2853]

these women are heaven sent ❤ respect 🙏

[@harvin3519]

Love you ladies, Queens of hearts, lot of blessing for saving these souls.

[@UCTeeth]

St. Bernards are amazing breed when you see them in person, I know your channel likes Cane Corsos or the typical breed we think of working dogs, but these breeds stand the test of time. They were used to keep the giant breeds alive and are very formidable

[@Skyrise369]

The cinematography on this one was 🔥 🔥

[@chuckjones7218]

Our Saint is a huge cuddle bug. These ladies don't lie though, vet and food bills are crazy high. He also loves to exercise, especially when it's cold outside. -10F seems to be his favorite temperature, just lays in a snow pile outside.

[@davidb1975a]

A well exercised dog is a well behaved dog. Saint Bernards are great dogs if raised properly. Beautiful property. Maybe someday I will own enough property that I could do what they are doing. Watched the video straight through. These ladies are amazing.

[@rm5238]

You can tell these women are doing what they love. They also emphasize on training at an early age and regular exercise these two things will make a happy pet home. The lady with the German accent made a very important point about breeders and breeding in general, she is against back yard breeding or puppy mills type but pro breeding dogs for a purpose ie work, any kind of work. Love the fact this video draws attention to adoption without putting down breeding for a purpose and purebreds in general. Thank you ladies!!! I say both adopt and buy your dog of choice, you can do both as long as your a good dog parent. Love, love, love the two St. Bernard👏👏👏

[@queendidine]

Couldn't have said it better!!!

[@slimbthug]

Zeke, thank you so much for putting a spotlight on the work these people do, and for featuring rescue dogs. As much as we love to celebrate and focus on specific breeds - it's a huge reason why many of us are fans of your channel! - I really appreciate that you're showing the consequences of what happens to the dogs we love so much, purebred or not, when falling under irresponsible ownership or unfortunate circumstances. I hope that you continue to integrate more documentaries on breed-specific rescues into your channel.

[@Kyleds8]

i like both pure breads and mixed breads, but whole wheat is my favorite

[@christinearmington]

Kyleds8 Haha. Missed it first time through! 😆

[@heiroot]

This is like a therapy ranch for dogs who were on death's door

[@avocadocasualty]

What neat ladies! Thanks for sharing their story with us! Gorgeous dogs! They really know what they are talking about too. Most dogs are not for everyone one and any time a breed is featured in a film it means bad news for that breed. Saint Bernards had the unfortunate circumstance of being featured in a series and I can only imagine the turmoil that resulted for responsible breeders and enthusiasts that followed.

[@adebened1981]

Dogumentary TV is officially my go to channel if I want to learn about different Dog breeds.

[@anned.2085]

Finally! I’ve been waiting on this one! Yasss!!! Edit: we’ll need another video that focuses on the st Bernard’s more. Great video though!

[@pamjarvis2771]

I do fully agree with you. St. Bernard are one of perfect family pets to own. Gentle , playful, protective of family , great with children , they get along with pets and extremely loving to whole family. Our Oscar’s best friend was black tuxedo cat named Samson. They are easily trainable from puppy age. Only negative is slobbering but it didn’t matter to my family since we had all carried hand towels to clean his face.

[@jamiemayes504]

Bless you ladies you're doing great work

[@dheyes803]

Poor me, I thought that Goldies had the only paintbrush tails. The St. Bernards take the trophy. The work that you wonderful ladies are doing is so needed. Thank you for all that you are doing for these wonderful creatures.👏🏽🐾🐶

[@LadiSway]

This is an amazing video. Cinematography is on point. The information given is on point. These ladies are wonderful. Unlike anyone you've had on the channel. Thank you for shedding light on their program. Great work, Zeek! (Sorry if I spelled your name incorrectly)

[@affiliate13]

Such a beautiful place, two wonderful ladies who clearly understand dogs. I wish them every success with their rescue work.

[@maryellenthompson8261]

This was a great video! I have a St. Bernard mix puppy and already see that I need to stay on top of her. But she will be a lovely member of our family in the end. I wish this video could have been a bit longer with more stories of what happened to your rescued dogs once they left your ranch.

[@sayurikitamura7109]

Hi and greetings from Germany... Awesome work you're doing!!! Thanks for doing this

[@driftwood1906]

Totally agree. All my dogs have been come from shelters. All have issues, but I consult a behaviourist and sort the problem out and then they have a great life with me.

[@ericlind6581]

I had a 140lb male Saint that was calm and stable. A true Alpha who felt no need to challenge any dog but who would “remind” unruly dogs to behave if needed. They are wonderful pack leaders!

[@lalnunpuiachhangtepuia7850]

Respect for these women, may God bless them

[@pamjarvis2771]

This is wonderful informative video. I love St. Bernard since I had purebred Oscar in my childhood. He was gentle, playful and protective dog who had fully bonded with me even if he was my brother’s dog. He had save me from carjacker who had tried come through my car window at our house. He had jumped over our backyard fence to wrestle and attacked carjacker out of my car window. He had moved between me and carjacker who had finally ran off with half ripped off hooded black jacket when he was let go by Oscar. He was very protective of me since he was puppy. I do miss him a lot after these many years.

[@rejogeorge7461]

Dogs are chill even there is *CAT* around them now I don't about you guys but that dammm chilled dogs man these are ladies are blessed .

[@cuoredolce29]

I must say, this is one of my favorite videos of yours, if not my favorite!! I love the story, Saint Bernards and I really, really love the cinematography and the music...🔥🔥. Very very well done!!

[@thehenhaos5724]

😍🥰😇these ladies are amazing

[@joannbell8320]

Beautifully done. I learned a lot, enjoyed seeing the dogs out in a natural environment and the quality of the video was excellent. Rescue is both hard and heart-warming work; bless those like K-9 Heroes who do it well.

[@garywildman9439]

God bless you for all your rescues.

[@akita2502]

Please make a video about service dogs! You are a dog channel and a special video featuring some service dogs would be amazing!

[@bsfrag]

Yes! Please make videos featuring service dogs. I know there seem to be many Labs working to assist people with disabilities but I would love to see videos with big dogs assisting people with physical disabilities

[@theoldworldwarrior451]

I've owned 2 Saint Bernard's in my life so far and they have always been amazing pets and awsome family members

[@meganmbleed]

These women are awesome. I’m so grateful there are people like this 💚💚🤘🏻

[@kezkezooie8595]

I'm so glad that the women acknowledged how important and helpful a good permanent pack dog/dogs can be when it comes to rehabilitating dogs. I used to rehabilitate traumatised dogs through a rescue organisation and my kelpie, who was a rescue dog himself, was very instrumental in helping the dogs that came to us. My son was great as well. He's in his twenties now and grew up with rehab dogs from the age of four (never unsupervised, of course) and so understands and knows how to handle and read dogs. I don't do rehab fostering anymore because of health issues but after losing my lovely kelpie and my rehabilitated puppy mill mum that came to me as a foster and that I ended up keeping at the ages of 17 and 16 respectively, about two years ago, I've just adopted a little bloke who had been out on trial a few times and had been brought back because of behavioural issues. He's been with me three weeks now and the issues are all but resolved and he's a much happier, much less stressed, friendly boy who just needed a little TLC, rehab and training. He's a small dog and, apart from feeling insecure due to losing his original owner and then being shunted through several short term fosters and out on trial then sent back a few times, most of his issues came from the standard mistakes people make with small dogs. Too many people allow small dogs to exhibit aggression that wouldn't be tolerated in a larger dog, and even unknowingly encourage it by "comforting" them, which gives positive re-enforcement to that behaviour, rather than teaching them that aggression is unacceptable and rewarding calm, sociable behaviour, thus helping them learn to de-escalate for themselves. Charlie and I, Gin Gin the cat (another rescue critter) and my son and his family are well on our way to all being great mates. That two years was the longest I've gone in my life without a dog (I got my fix from my next door neighbour's staffie, who I've puppy sat for since she was tiny, and my son's dogs but it's not the same) and I love having a doggie mate again :)

[@deshaunbethea9117]

Besides saving lots of human lives from the snowy mountains of Switzerland and Italy, This breed of dog is further famous for universal studios family-friendly Beethoven films and most importantly the 1981 Stephen King horror book Cujo (Which was also adapted in a film two years later in 1983 by Warner Bros and Sunn Classic Pictures). In 2015 Sunn Classic Pictures was announced a reboot to the novel titled ''Cujo:Canine Unit Joint Operations''.

[@losir7331]

Man such a great video. Extremely informative, educational and the quality is first class

[@bsfrag]

Excellent, beautifully done video. I love these women and all they are doing. Great insight into the Saint Bernard breed. The only thing I would change is lowering the volume of the background music...wee bit too loud for me.

[@MsEeTe]

Amazing work you ladies do!

[@lisagfrerer9429]

I totally agree with this vid as a former Saint owner. Massive homebodies, their whole existence is protecting and being a part of the family. Incredibly gentle noble and majestic but you must have the psychological advantage and they need to know you are the pack leader as hard to take out into the world otherwise. They are SO STRONG and if something captures their attention they will go investigate whether you like it or not. Vet work?Times it by 4 of every other dog. Food Bill? They cost as much to feed as a 20 year old adult male who has a very physical job.. I havent even mention the fur or slobber..it epic.

[@heiroot]

Incredible!!

Another great video. Great work and great insight and great music, if I might say.

[@robertborchert932]

I have a sweet Saint Bernard. Bear is huge, at three years old he is approaching 160 pounds. His father is over 210 pounds. Indeed, having a Saint is not cheap. I cook for two, and Bear will eat more than I do. Saints shed their hair twice per year, in addition to their routine shedding. Yes, he will hop onto a couch and drive it one foot across the floor. They drool. A lot. They require constant attention and love, and will absolutely melt your heart. Yes, I rescued Bear, and in return he has rescued me. I am constantly cleaning Bear fuzz, and love every minute of it. How about an update, two years later. I feel I must elaborate. I also found a home for Bear's brother, he is happy in Oregon. If you understand the history of the breed, they are named after the Saint Bernard's hospice in Switzerland. They are rescue dogs. They can locate a trapped victim in avalanches. I am an old fire captain. I joined the fire service in the spirit if Saint Florian. Not for adulation, but for the need. I cannot overemphasize how wonderful it has been to have a Saint Bernard. Two paragraphs ago, and two years, I meant what I had said. This happy dog has been a blessing! A key point here. Saint Bernards are quite powerful, and they are smart. If I chastise Bear, or if he sees my disappointment, he is crushed. Thus, you might see the difference. They are very sensitive. I must attest, a Saint Bernard requires protein. Well, I love my Saint. As I type this, I am cooking two New York steaks. This is part of his diet. He must have protein. Chicken. Beef. If you could see his happiness over enjoying a steak, you might understand. It is expensive, folks. Again, I cook for two. My daughters are all grown up. Yet, I remain sharing dinner with a huge dog. And yes, I enjoy every minute of it.

[@pashubham826]

I had four of St.Bernards. Great dogs I must say. We got our first as an adoption one. Caesar was a big old dog weighing almost 100kgs and tall. He was agressive dog yet too cute to handle. We kept him at our dairy farm as a guard dog for night. Everybody would fear him. My grandpa and Caesar became like best friends. He would roam freely at night, no fear of leopards and hyenas. Later we bought another 3 directly from Bern, Switzerland. I have never seen a breed more wonderful than Saints. My only concern is that here in India they can't get along well in Summer unless they sleep in water and me shaving their fur. I am now looking for other breed like Borboel and Presa Canario and Dogo Argentino or Fila Brasiliero.

[@luisgarza8123]

Awesome video and awesome ladies.

[@kathleensolomon9041]

Great video, they do amazing work. I'd love a St. Bernard, but I know in my heart I don't have enough room or time. These ladies confirm it. I wish every shelter/rescue would make these questions part of their assessments. Would you add a link to their organization above? Zeke, I love your videos. Such a great job.

[@thousandpixels]

Great

[@vidurlutchminarain5867]

So freaking cute

Very informative. I learned a lot about the breed that I didn’t know before.

Amazing video. Can we get a similar video on Newfoundlands?

[@SITRUUNAKAKKU-kl3sf]

i wishd id had saint bernard

[@jamesloehr641]

The cost really depends on the saint. They very so much in size. They can be as small as 80lbs or as large as 260lbs. Which dogs over 200lbs are pretty rare. Most are 100 to 180lbs. Smaller saints eill pbviously live longer,have fewer health issues and less expensive vet bills. The 200 lbs monsters think of taking care of two large 100 lbs dogs. They need larger doses of shots and heartworm. So they are generally more expensive. Grooming you can do yourself with some training and research. They fo need to be socialised, get them around as many people as possible and other dogs. So they do not have issues with strangers. They do also need training early. This dog can pull you down the street if you do not teach them to not pull. Lol they are also notoriously messy drinkers and get water everywhere. They have their flaws for sure. But they are very smart,eager to please you. Not hard to train, and they are very loving sweet,cuddly lap dogs.

[@kyletrent7504]

Great videos. Keep up the good work. My grandfather used to work security, Rottweiler was his dog of choice for it. You should do a video about the best dogs for security guards/officers. Most would think it’d be the same selections as a police dog, but I disagree.

Good view...we do need reputable breeders but not backyard breeders. If we do not keep breeding like she said we won’t have working breeds etc. Do your research on the breed before and do the proper training. Don’t give a dog up when it’s not doing what you want bc you didn’t train them properly or they get old.

[@seulmoi]

[@meh4062]

They make it sound like all older dogs are discarded on purpose. Saw a 15 yr old shih tzu, owners had no choices way too many health issues and they were financially incapable of proper care. Sadly dont know fate of dog but shelter was deciding if it was possible to care for. They make tough choice of two dog cost or one for exmple.

[@MrJedv]

[@igotboredfkit]

st Bernards are much like me big, hard to read, and normally cant be bothered to give a shit but watch out when we do. i will always be a pittbull guy but i plan own a bernard probably be my next dog actually.

[@thENDweDIE]

Gawd bless these straight up angels...and those wise enough to be like minded... ...I truly mean that, and this is coming from an atheist ffs...HaHa!!! xD

[@jamesloehr641]

I dont agree with everything they say,specially them eating real meat. Plenty of saint bernards do fine on a good dog food. They do not have to eat pounds of raw food. They make it sound like its a dog most owners should not get. They are expensive, but you do not have to be rich to own one. Most middle class people will be fine paying to take care of a saint. They also do not need acreage or giant yards. Because most are bred for shows and not high energy dogs. They just need space to move and lay down. So any open floor apartment or house is fine for them. Also many now days, live longer than 8 to 10 years and have fewer health issues do to selective breeding,better science behind our dog foods.
