Shelter dogs have the playground to themselves, swims in the dam and puppies come out for a play

It’s a very warm Sunday here at the farm with a big storm rolling in later this afternoon.
The shelter boys Freddo, Conrad, Bobby and YoYo have the playground to themselves on. Sunday and have lots of fun together by the dam to cool off.
Whilst Lucy has her swim in the dam, we baby sit her puppies. The puppies meet the weekend pack including Hera and Lily. They’re getting bigger and their little personalities are emerging.
Happy Sunday everyone!

What a difference in the dogs ! Who ever adopts these beautiful boys will have well socialized dogs ,Luke has done a fabulous job. The puppies are adorable , so pleased you took Lucy and gave her the best environment to deliver her puppies safely.

These 4 boys have just truly blossomed, all in their own way. Amazing what compassion, kindness & guidance can do. They learn faster than most humans. They're so relaxed & getting on so well together...you can literally "see" they exude happiness. It's really beautiful 💕🐕 Lucy's babies are lovely & very healthy! I hope she's doing OK too.

[@charylliss1472]

Fredo has shed his burdens, he’s beginning to believe in happiness. They all belong in the farm. Thank you for giving these old souls a patch of sunshine and happiness in their lives. Those puppies are just adorable. Hera is transfixed with the little fur balls. 😁😀😍

[@janicehoward1769]

It's been so exciting watching the shelter doggies develop. DDFT has been a Godsend for them. Had to giggle at Freddo in the sand. Oh my, the puppies are adorable and exploring their surroundings. You do amazing work!!!

[@kathykoke-drum1510]

What a treat for the shelter dogs to be out in the dam and play area. I so enjoyed watching them be able to play, get in the water and roll in the dand..YoYo definitely likes to play more. Lucy and her puppies enjoyed being outside. Watching Elle and Eve playing with them was fun! That little runt is certainly courageous taking off and saying Hi to the big dogs! 💖💖💖💖💖 From NW Ohio, USA

[@annettetawse8308]

I lol when Yoyo plopped belly down in the water. Yoyo sure has a fun personality. Those puppies are adorable. I would be surprised if your girls have not been asking to keep one or more of them. Thank you for sharing your day.

[@annaheeldawes8608]

All the dogs have made great strides, I am so happy to see all of their changes. But there’s one of them 5hat makes my heart swell. It’s one thing to moderate and change behaviours, but to change an untrusting, closed hearted older dog like Freddo. I swear it brought me to tears to see him completely surrender to the surroundings and the other dogs.you guys are amazing, thank you changing and opening the heart of a very untrusting and lonely dog like him ❤️🎉🤯

[@shadowwalker9365]

My heart tells me there will be that special person who loves this breed and will step forward to offer Freddo a loving forever home. I believe all the shelter dogs will get forever homes. Thank you Uncle Luke, Auntie Sam, Elle, Evie, and DDCF mates for all the time, training, kindness, love, patience, and effort you have given to help get each of the shelter dogs ready for their forever homes!

[@elsafridl7437]

I savor any visit to the Farm. I’m so happy to see the former shelter dogs enjoying life with the discipline each needs to be placed with a forever family. The puppies have gotten to be so big and cute so quickly - a testament to Lucy’s skills as a mum, and Uncle Luke’s skills as a nighttime nanny. The Farm is a blessing to every living creature that comes in contact with it. Hope you enjoy what’s left of your weekend. ❤️🐕

[@EllieTheWheaten]

... even if the contact is 'only' through these heartwarming videos!

Awww. Elle. “He likes me!” My dear, you are so kind and caring about all the dogs, I can promise you there will never be a dog who doesn’t like you. I’m very sure you will be a vet someday and take care of all the Farm animals. ❤

[@rosemoss9380]

Very sweet. I noticed how Luke stayed where he was and never left the puppy who needed extra comfort. They're all good dogs:)

[@louannwaters6691]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us. Love the girls❤️. The puppy that went running down the hill was so cute. Cutie Pie wasn’t so sure about the snuggling puppies 😂. And the rescue dogs make my heart sing😍. It was great seeing them discover the water and running in the open spaces. YoYo and the toy was hilarious😂. Grateful for all your hard work and dedication to the dogs!!!! Happy Sunday

[@WriterSnider]

I am head-over-heels for the shelter dawgs! And the puppies, oh, my! ❤️🐾 CP is wondering how it’s possible there are new pals smaller than her.

[@Danika_Nadzan]

Great fun for the shelter boys! Freddo looks like he could end up a beach bum, lol! YoYo was so enthusiastic, as usual... The pups and the girls are just adorable together...Cutie Pie should enjoy her time as the "big" sister while it lasts...🥰🥰

[@celgor1325]

Brings back loving memories of Cutie Pie when she was a new pup and Riker.

[@lindanicholas1705]

That was wonderful. The rescues played well and seemed to enjoy the water. The babies were adorable.... Thank you, again, for allowing us into your home....

I second that.

Thank you for the weekend edition of DDFT. The shelter boys were having a blast on the playground, very happy and relaxed pups. And oh my goodness those little puppies, they are getting so big and brave. The tiniest of all has a farm dog heart, she just marched off to find adventure. No fear in that one, cannot wait to watch her develope more. Excellent video.
