I respect people when they realize they cannot look after an animal and they give it to someone who can.

[@elenaescocia2479]

Which they should be applauded for! Because so many people out there just abandon a animal! When there is no need there is so many places you can hand the animal over too!

We need to remember to have compassion for those who love their dog so much that they do what's best for the dog.

[@CozyLumi]

Even if they don't love the dog and they just want to get rid of it for whatever reason, we should just be grateful they contacted a sanctuary instead of abandoning or killing the dog.

[@SaltySteff]

I always feel gratitude towards people who are able to admit when they can't look after their animal properly. They're not bad people, they just took in something that was too much for them. It takes a lot of strength of character to admit when you're in the wrong and even more strength to surrender your animal because you know they would have a better life elsewhere

@@verali164 they weren’t well cared for….at all. Jules, the bloodhound was so neglected, she ended up spending 4 days at the vet, because she had multiple infections, was completely dehydrated & was in constant pain. There’s a reason Lee gave that disclaimer at the end of video….people lie, especially when they’re surrendering animals. That poor dog “looked healthy”, but in all actuality, she was miserable.

[@shannon_w.]

Years ago my husband and my kids and I went through some EXTREMELY hard times. We were facing homelessness and we had 2 dogs. Our dogs were LITERALLY our babies we loved them so so so so much but not knowing what we were going to do or where we were going to go we knew we had to find good homes for our dogs and that was the hardest most heartbreaking thing I had to ever do! I didn’t want to give up my babies but I had no other choice in the matter. Luckily God sent people into our lives that were about as perfect as could be to love our babies! For our Bischon we found a family that had wanted one so bad but couldn’t afford to buy one from a breeder and boy did they spoil her from the moment they met her and our Border Collie who we had the longest was the hardest one because we had him for so long and we had to bring him to the shelter because we couldn’t find anyone to take him. So my husband pulled up to the shelter and was sitting in the parking lot holding Rocky and so desperately NOT wanting to bring him in there when a woman who walked out of the shelter came up to him to see if he was ok and he told her the story of why he was there and let me tell you, God DEFINITELY put that woman there that day! Here she came to the shelter every so often to see if they had any Border Collies she could adopt because she had a big farm and she rescued Border Collies! What an amazing miracle! So she took Rocky to her amazing farm! She had sent me updates for quite awhile and Rocky was so happy there! So as Lee said sometimes people fall on hard times and things happen that are out of our control. So also as Lee said you shouldn’t judge until you walk a mile in someone else’s shoes. I am so grateful for people like the ones who took our babies and Lee. They make the world a much better place ❤

[@isitoveryet9525]

I understand people fall on hard times & have to rehome their pets…but unless you’d give away actual children, claiming your dogs were “LITERALLY your babies” is just not true.

Do you feel awesome having said you backhanded comment? What was the point? Do you feel like the big keyboard warrior you are? Didn’t your parents ever teach you that if you don’t have anything nice to say why say anything at all? Usually I just let comments like these go BUT yours just needed to be answered! I guess I am just sick and tired of seeing complete strangers saying things so rudely for absolutely no personal gain at all! I also guess that it is because I don’t do those things to people unless I can see that what they did or said was something pretty bad.

Thank you, Lee. I live in Toronto, Canada. We're having a big problem now with people dumping the pets they got to keep them company while they worked at home during the pandemic. They're now dumping these poor animals in local woods and ravine parkland in and around the city. Some of them are found and rescued by Toronto Animal Services, but we can be sure some of them are not. I'm sure this kind of thing is happening all over. This was predicted when the sales from breeders and adoptions from Toronto Humane Society and other local animal shelters were skyrocketing and people were complaining that those shelters were being too stringent in their adoption policies. This didn't have to happen, if people weren't so short-sighted and selfish. So yes, I'm being judgmental of them, because they should know better. You don't dump your family in the woods with coyotes and foxes, and leave them to suffer. Sorry, Lee, it just hurts to see this. I had my cat that I found as an abandoned 8-week old kitten near the local ravine. If I hadn't taken her home with me, she would have been a fox's snack. She was with me for 18 years, and I had to put her to sleep in September 2020, as she was dying. I had to hand her over to the vet at the door, couldn't be with her, because of covid. It broke my heart that I couldn't hold her as she went to sleep. I still miss her, and I thought I would maybe get another cat, adopt a senior cat, but I know now I can't afford it anymore. I'm grateful to you and all the other people out there providing love and shelter to all the wonderful doggies and cats - and other critters. Thank you!

It's true, I recently adopted a second dog from the Toronto Humane Society and it was utterly heartbreaking to see all the "purebred" dogs that were there. They were all between the ages of two and three. Gorgeous dogs that were bred out of greed and selfishness and are now paying the price for human callousness. Both of my dogs are rescues and I am so grateful for them. They are both gorgeous and whenever some snotty person with their designer dog asks me what breed they are I always say the best kind. Sometimes when I see dog owners that clearly think of their dog as an accessory I explain that owners like me are the ones that have to correct all the horrible mistakes they make on such impulsive buys. My first dog was two years old when I got her and in fairness she didn't have any trust issues but she was in no way house trained AT all! She wasn't socialized and could not even walk on a leash. My second dog is about a year and a half from a reserve and Im pretty sure she was used to fight other dogs. She is a beautiful pittie mix with part of her ear missing and because of that she is highly fearful of other dogs. Doesn't matter if they are big or small. This is difficult because fear looks like aggresssion and there is already so much stigmatization she faces already, she is the biggest sucky cuddle bug you would ever meet. Thank you for rescuing your cat and giving her a good life

We no longer can afford the excessive vet bills; the high or price of food or expense of groomers. It's either, being able to afford our meds; food; medical care or taking care of our fur baby. I personally chose to take care of my very ill Izzy over what I needed. She was a very tough Lhasa Apso, but lost her battle with her illnesses. I've never regretted my decision. When she passed, a piece of my soul went with her. I'm now trying to deal with my issues I put aside. So, I honor any decision you must make. God bless Asher House.❤

My dogs have always been my whole world. 9 years ago I lost my job and the next day my husband, who was deployed with the US Navy on a ship, emailed me to tell me he wanted a divorce. We had three rescue dogs who he wasn't able to care for due to his military status. In 48 hours I lost my home, my job and my marriage. I had to move in with my parents across the country at 36 years old to keep my three dogs, a Rottweiler mix, a lab chow mix and a husky mix. Three big dogs, one who had been severely abused, one who had been returned to the shelter and rehomed multiple times, and my third baby who showed aggression towards other dogs and animals. If my parents hadn't taken me in, I'd have ended up in a small apartment with three really big dogs who wouldn't have been allowed, in a hotel while I looked for a job that could support me and my three fur babies or on the street. Personally, my dogs will leave my side over my dead body, they are my children. And even then, I have a contingency plan (well now I do!) But like Lee said, in rescue, get the dog and get out. Not everyone has the patience or quite frankly what it takes to rehabilitate the abused, the difficult cases, those who need extra attention, love, care and even those animals who are just a little quirky,. different or didn't get a fair shot out of the gate. I go to the local animal shelter weekly, and I see new surrenders. I hear reasons like "she was too skittish" or "he jumped our fence." I'm just shocked and astounded by the reasons people surrender their dogs. It's just not right. And here Lee is righting the wrongs of all of these people. RIP Bailey, Foxy and Daisy. Mommy misses you and I have and always will continue rescuing as long as I can keep taking care of the fur babies and of myself.

There should be more people like you Lee .Who give a dam about animals who need help.

[@juliesilvaggio804]

Thank You Lee! It is so hard to do animal rescues! You can tell they are afraid of coming in the house, they probably got punished when they did before. Hats off to all the animal rescue people !

[@cd6243]

Lee is the best...my heart is filled with joy... every time I watch his videos 🥰🙏🏻💜

[@KJ-ut4rw]

They didn’t have to punished, sometimes dogs are afraid of certain things because it’s unknown and haven’t experienced it. There doesn’t need to be abuse.

[@avadea369]

dogs love to explore and follow the pack leader, so the reaction of the newbies clearly showed me they hadn't been allowed inside before

[@shalacarter6658]

I grew up in Chicago and then on a farm . The dogs did not stay in the house unless there was, for example, a blizzard. They had a wonderful dog house that my cousin built for them in Shop. It had a hinged top for easy cleaning. It was always filled with hay. The cats also used it so everyone was nice and warm. Are my dogs in the house? You bet! And my parents eventually had dogs in the house. Especially the one that bit my then 2-yr-old son. I feel badly for people who have to surrender their dogs. What if this man had chosen to take them out into the country and shoot them instead? Butters and Copper seemed confused as to why the new dogs would not come in the house. You can see they were leading them. xoxoxoxo

[@deanfirnatine7814]

Yes we do not know the circumstances and the dogs obviously were very well fed, I am 100% in the house dog guy but my mom was not, she grew up in a different era and environment but that did not make her a bad person.

[@donnabatchelor4260]

The Bloodhound is beautiful. It is soooo difficult to maintain composure when someone tells the multitude of reasons or excuses for giving up a pet. Having worked at our local Humane Society I heard everything and some days my anger did seep through. You are doing the best work. Thank you.

[@KJ-ut4rw]

You shouldn’t judge people unless you walked in their shoes. Most of the time surrendering your animal is the kindest thing you can do.

[@carltonthepug]

Didn’t know someone is gonna have this much of a disgusting and judgmental view. Would you rather have someone dump a dog in the street or reach out for help because they are hitting hard times? Don’t think you’re never gonna run into a situation where you’re gonna have to make heart wrenching decisions. Get out of here with your lack of empathy. Sorry, I let my anger seep through.

[@MG-pj2oo]

​@K J the kind thing is not getting an animal unless they're going to be family. Certainly not breeding them. And not leaving them outside like lawn furniture

[@janicehales2958]

Its not fair to judge this man's situation when you probably don't know all it involves. Most times people don't tell you how bad their problems really are. He loved them enough to find them a safe place to go, so in my book he did the best thing. I'm sure he feels bad enough already. Give people a break, these dogs were well fed, and even spayed so you know they were cared for before he gave them up. Just my opinion.

[@lulauriapay8848]

Thank You FamiLee🌈💚🙏🏽The world is up side down. We can't judge anymore. We can Open the hart like You do every time You rescue. So much Love in the Asher House! Hope for more Sanctuaries Open around🌎hope for more help & empathy☄️Love learning with you. Thank You🌱🌳🏞️💚

[@christinematton4125]

Thank you Lee imagine what could have happened to them if the owner hadn't reached out to you. It must still be frightening for them. They will find out shortly how lucky they are ❤️

[@brendajudd7354]

Lee I swear you are one of the luckiest guys to get to have all these beautiful animals in your life. These are very beautiful dogs! The Pyrenees looking one was scared to come into the house. You could tell he probably was never in a house ever. I am so happy you have them. So many fur babies to cuddle with. Lucky you! Take care Lee. Again Thank you for taking them in.

[@sophiamichael2788]

I agree with the no judgement aspect. I see this on NextDoor all the time where someone is rehoming their dog and people get so upset. If they don't want the dog for whatever reason or can't care for the dog, the dog is better with someone else. I am just happy these people aren't just dumping their dogs in the boonies somewhere.

[@calikiwi]

At the end of the day the dogs were safe and cared for, the owner approaching Lee to give the best outcome for the dogs is the best possible outcome. Nobody knows what’s happening behind closed doors, and we all know how many dogs just get driven to the end of the road someplace and dumped.. so, all in all, it’s a good day!☀️🌈

[@cherylburrows6161]

Lee you have a gift with these dogs,it is sad to see that they hadn't had the luxury of being in a house,but you have changed that.They are going to have their best life.Thank you Lee.❤️❤️

[@juliebraden]

I don't see a dog being able to come in the house w/ the family he belongs in as a luxury. I see it as a need. The dogs just want to be where their human family(their pack) & any otger pets r . They want to be included in the group dynamic even if they r the only animal in a home where there r only humans. I also love that Lee allows his dogs plentiful access to the outdoors so they don't all hav to comply w/ where the owner is if that is not wet they prefer I wish people who have domesticated animals wud understand their needs & accomodate them bttr.

Tell your family and friends and their friends and family...to subscribe. Lee and the pack deserve 1 million subs today. Bless this Canine Hero.

I love Maeve. Every time I see her in these vids, she is just so sweet.

[@tomhousewright6803]

Cindy here. You are amazing. Bless you for giving the dogs a sanctuary and ultimately a home. 😊

[@trishgift7959]

So much respect for that guy for doing the responsible thing when he realized he couldn't take care of the dogs. Wish him well.

[@lisaboo5806]

I truly love how you take the time to know what each breed of dog needs.

[@kurtracer43]

You are a special person taking care of all these precious dogs God Bless You

[@francescaa8331]

I do adore the face of that bloodhound. The bloodhound and the way she sniffs the air for all the scents. That's her specialty.

[@LynnGuest-ro7ny]

I love the kindness that brings the emotional healing. Asher house has a sixth sense for dogs needs. The ❤

[@jenniferdeleon8954]

They will be so happy now! It amazes how fast they settle in there with you and the pack

[@patphares6258]

No matter the video length, there’s never enough! Enjoyment to the max. Love you and yours so very much….

[@colemarie9262]

Respect to the previous owner for taking the time to find them a good home when he couldn’t care for them anymore.... wish more people would take note!

[@diannacarey6508]

These doggies have HIT THE JACKPOT LOTTERY....called THE ASHER HOUSE AND PAPA LEE ASHER. I LOVE TO WATCH YOUR RESCUES!!! THEY ARE SAFE NOW!!!

[@maureenahearn9670]

Hi Lee I think you are a true diamond and you certainly have a huge heart and are very gd with animals and I know all the animals you rescue will have a brilliant life .x

[@elizabethseals2001]

They hit the jackpot with you! Thanks for being you. You're amazing!

[@jessicamacfarlane2761]

Loved the way darling Lillie added her tuppence to the conversation when the dogs were talking to each other. Bloodhound gorgeous- suggest Red for name. Thank you Lee for adopting them.

[@myyuba]

I'm so grateful for the love and care these animals receive at Asher House, no matter how long they are there, they are loved, in some cases - for the first time. Kudos to the man for making sure and really wanting these pups to be ok. I am going to start a monthly donation to Asher House today. Thank you

[@recurvearcher6542]

Hi Lee, Thank you. It's fantastic when even after one day at your sanctuary, dogs that are traumatised begin to act normally again, you do amazing work, you deserve all the assistance we can give. Great posts

[@janinemaxwell4297]

You do such an amazing thing rescuing all these babies

[@chorne4677]

Oh my goodness, A Beautiful Red Bloodhound and red bloodhound puppy! I once had a red bloodhound and his name was Indiana. He was huge, well over 100 pounds, hated little dogs for some reason and was the most stubborn dog we'd ever had. But we loved him soooooo much. He was a sweetheart. You probably already know this, but if bloodhounds get loose and start following a scent they won't stop following it and can get really lost. Also love the Great Pyrenees mix you got. Thank you for all you do Lee and thanks for what you said about people giving up their pets. We really can't fully understand where someone is coming from unless we've walked in their shoes. I do understand that, at times, the stories you hear are BS, but what makes you great is that the dog or other animal is always number one for you.

[@piakiby1566]

So cute how the small dogs try to show them the way in the house. The big red is a Pluto for sure ♥️
