I have a Pomchi that's had six owners! He's seven years old. Lord knows what he's been through. When he hears the words "eat" or "hungry," he runs and hides. It's a challenge to get him to eat. He'll go as long as two days before his hunger finally takes over and he'll eat. I have made a solemn oath to myself to show him the love and patience that he has obviously never experienced. I always "tell" him, "You've always been my dog. It just took you seven years to get to me." I hope my love will someday heal his emotional wounds and even if they don't, I will always try.

[@topcatwarrior]

Whether or not you got the real story which you probably didn’t, it doesn’t matter because his happy dog life started the moment you arrived. He looks quite young, and has such a beautiful and sweet face. I wish you much joy with this sweet soul!🐾🐾💕

[@4bratkab565]

TopcatWarrior agree but from years animal advocates ,animal lovers want and need for animals, the true Justice on ABUSERS and Ban PUPPY MILLS or backyard BREEDERS ! Whoever hurts intentionally helpless animals ,should be Registered as criminal and law should be enforced and Justice! Thank goodness this baby is safe with Lee! But this or others cruel people...still can have more innocent helpless animals and never ending Cruelty going on or the victims loving animals getting euthanized in overcrowded KILLING SHELTERS...cause people don't report cruelty or dump their animals like a piece of nothing!Everyone can help Anonymous!

Beautiful reply!!

Labs are so gentle and sweet. I’m glad you saved him.

[@amysimonbiz]

He must be really pretty young. I’ve always had labs and this sweet little man looks maybe 5-6 months old. My female 11 month old British Labrador is 74 pounds at 6 months she was 60 pounds. I’m guessing this little guy is maybe 30-35lbs. Poor sweet baby.

He's a gorgeous Labrador - those big paws, all that loose neck skin, those golden ears - he might be the cutest thing ever! What a baby!

[@Relativecalm2]

I used to work at an animal shelter in my younger years. To this day the callous indifference, let alone the intentional suffering, that some people can have toward, and inflict on, another sentient creature, that will only ever want to love and be loved, defies my understanding. The relief I feel whenever Lee takes in another rescue is palpable. I breathe a little easier. Thank you. 🐈💕

[@teresamiller5060]

@flores171100 We bought our home and land when our first 2 Great Pyrenees were about a year old. They lived their whole life here together bonded siblings, happy as can be. Then we found a local rescue had sent a volunteer 3 hours away to pick up a Pyr (and a pregnant dog) who were due to be euthanized the next morning at 9 am. We fostered the Pyr within 3 days and knew we would never give her up. Then we found another Pyr (male) in a bad situation one state away from us, so we drove 3 hours each way to pick him up for immediate adoption. So here I am 3 months away from retirement….I can’t wait! We currently have 3 of our 4 vehicles as Pyr wagons..lol.. I see a Great Pyrenees rescue in my future! We have the land, goats, etc..but the dogs love the ac in the summer, and watching Animal Planet from our bed…lol..Our two huge babies were on our king sized bed with my hubs while I was getting ready for bed tonight …I love how Lee becomes so ecstatic when he sees his rescues start to relax and accept his affection without fear. ❤️
