I have a feeling Tommy Boy is going to be a foster fail lol. Welcome home Tommy Boy!

[@kp8381]

I think so also...🤞🙏

[@hirihiri3229]

Me too :-))))))))))

[@scm0717]

I doubted the "foster" as soon as he said it. Lol

[@Acadian.FrenchFry]

I literally just posted the same comment! LOL

[@greeranelson]

Foster? Yeah right. It’s pretty obvious Lee is already in love with this dog.

[@musclemary2227]

He foster failed today.... I love it

[@Bert_de_Wit]

That's exactly what I thought!

English Bulldogs are a breed with the sweetest temperment! Just hsve a big bank account for all their health problems. It's heartbreaking.

[@rhonddamuraca6544]

Tommy is one of my favourites. He has the funniest demeanour.

[@maryriley1931]

I miss seeing Tommy without his red ball.

[@idafreedman7694]

Lee I am 71 years old and have had Bulldogs since I was 5 years old and watching how happy Tommy is was the best thing I have seen. Thank you for bringing him home

[@sofakingcute9804]

How could such a beautiful bulldog be running homeless out on the streets? He’s adorable ❤️

[@Mama-Ames]

That was my first thought as well. An adorable English Bully-Angel... homeless?!? I'm SO thankful he's now safe & happy & is at last... Home.💕X💕🙏💕O💕

[@andydufresne5297]

I wondered that as well, since there are BD fanciers out there who would scoop Tommy right up. Since he wasn't "surrendered" to a shelter due to issues, I thought maybe he was lost. *But someone notified me that even English Bulldogs can be used in puppy mill systems* where you have breeder dogs (like the Asher House golden retriever Lucy) who spend their young years being used as breeders--with no other life--and then when they are older and "used up", they are dumped or worse. So it's possible that Tommy was discarded from such a situation, due to his age and health issues. Maybe Lee will clarify at some point.

[@shalacarter6658]

@@andydufresne5297 Yes, puppy mills use dog slaves for years as breeders and they breed pretty much everything. See if you can find a list of the puppymills in your state.

It's "take me home country road" but I agree that Lee does an amazing job making them feel special

[@anniegunn9961]

Look at that face who couldn't fall in love with him. He just looks like the sweetest boy, by the way I know you love him you made a song for him!! Everyone in the pack was so good with him, and Penny that girl is the social director to make sure he is good!! I really love him he has a beautiful smile nice choice my friend, love ya!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@barbaracurtis1398]

I love how "the pack" is so patient and sweet to any new dog you introduce them to. They feel safe at all times and are willing to greet any new dog with kindness and that's due to your kind, compassionate nature :-)

[@beyourownhealthhero]

I love how it went from “rescue” to “my boy now” in 3 hours. Love this ❤❤❤❤

[@Jordan23501]

dude has a heart of gold

[@kaybrown5637]

I love how Lee greets every new doggy with instant kisses. I have yet to see any dog refuse all that loving. That's an immediate bonding experience. ❤️

[@IntriguedLioness]

I've been fostering for years and when I first get them, unless they're dealing with a recent surgery or something, I just smother them and kisses and hugs and back scratches and everything. Then I tone it down just to see what their comfort level is. Sometimes it takes a few days and they just want to sleep.. but they always remember you is the one that covered them in kisses first!

[@AD-sn5en]

[@sarahbenson3053]

As a furbaby mum to two bulldogs, this broke my heart knowing he was a stray as they love their human so much. So glad you found him ❤️

[@margipinto7925]

I would love to see a video of Tommy discovering the red ball that he’s become so famous for ❤

[@topcatwarrior]

Tommy Boy is so handsome and chill, what an awesome addition to the pack. He looks a lot like my Pinky Louise, an English bulldog mix I adopted 8 years ago, also from the mean streets of L.A. She’s been the best girl ever and still going strong. I’m wishing all the best for you and Tommy Boy, he couldn’t have landed at a better place than with you at the Sanctuary.💕

[@naomiwest757]

It always amazes me how the pack are so accepting of each new dog it's so lovely to see, it makes my heart happy 😊

[@jacquibradley1598]

What makes you so special Lee is that all these dogs know! God Bless you Sir, please please keep going, even when it gets tough, it is so worth it. 💙🙏🐶🐶🤗🙏

[@anitajonsson4379]

That was just a wonderful welcome... your doggos learn what they live. They are so loved, have a real family, and have a Pack Dad who loves them all individually and as a Doggie Family / Pack. They are all filled up inside, love their life, and have enough to share. They are not worried that one new dog is going to mean no place for them. That is an absolutely fantastic achievement! You.set a great example for us all,on so many levels. I wish you well, much happiness, and thank you most sincerely.

[@violetfemme411]

Tommy Boy! What a lucky pup! 💜

[@I_am_me8560]

What a sweet boy!! I had an English bulldog, his name was Bob, the best breed of dog ever, but they will break your heart when they develop health problems! Bob lived an exceedingly long life for a EBD, he was 13 when he passed. He developed Cushing disease in his final year & it was heart wrenching! My oldest son has had 3, one that passed from cancer at 10, and the 2 he has now. One has horrific skin problems & allergies and the other gets weepy eyes. They are so dedicated and so loving and have such horrible separation anxiety from their owners, that I'm surprised you are fostering him instead of adopting him! At 8 years old & losing his previous family, and now getting attached to you & will eventually lose you, that's a lot of heartache for an 8 year old bullie to go through! I hope you consider him a foster fail and let him live out his life at Asher house!

[@jenniferquackenbush7458]

My goodness, what a sweet boy! So handsome! Tommy Boy just landed the very best life he deserves at the Asher House. 🐾❤️🐾 I loved when he met the pack. He was totally unphased, like he knew everyone all along. He will fit into the pack just pawfectly! 🥰

I've been working in fostering and rescue for years and it's not just Lee. Obviously we are all fans of Lee or we wouldn't be here.. but there is such a wonderful network in the US of people who volunteer to transport dogs from areas like after Hurricane Ian struck and last week we had a Labrador overpopulation in a breeding facility here in Washington state, a few months ago when 4,000 beagles were rescued from a breeding for research facility. Those beagles are now in 48 states and for all I know Alaska and Hawaii too! Once you start volunteering and you're part of this network you'd be amazed! *_It takes a village to do this!_*

Sitting up high in the truck, completely still, allowing those eager beavers to worship him! Amazing. Super chill! Lucky pupper dog!!!!

Bulldogs are very chill. I have a forever foster Sr bulldog who is 9, female who was taken in from rescue after being overbred and tons of major spine issues. She is the easiest dog I have ever had. After losing 3 boxers to cancer in less than two years she is my sunshine.

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

Maybe his owner passed on? Or got arrested ? His owner might have been homeless? There are many possible "innocent" reasons why dogs can end up on the streets. It's sad, of course, in each case, but I don't think that it's always for malicious reasons.

[@katz734]

Lee, thank you for loving all these animals. I have watched you for years now, and I think you have influenced many others to start their own animal rescue places, - such a good influence on the world we live in.

How can anyone lose a bulldog? What a cutie. I adopted a dog from a county shelter that I think is the most gorgeous, magnificent, beautiful dog on the planet! She has the sweetest personality. She is cute, a white bullie with speckles of brown and black marbling on her coat, she even has freckles on her face and floppy ears. I look at her, and think to myself, how wonderful she is. How could anyone have lost her, but she is with me (going on a year) at her forever home.
