A Look Back at 2022 at the Farm

It’s the last day of 2022 and thinking back to all that has happened here at the farm this year … it has surely been our biggest year yet.
We asked Ben to put it all in a video so we could have a look back together before we head into a fresh new year. And looking back, it’s almost hard to believe all that and more actually happened.
We’ve had some very big happy highs and some very tough heartbreaking lows.
The highs were of course all the beautiful doggies we got to love and welcome to the farm. In 2022, we fostered and trained a total of 67 dogs, plus adopting and welcoming 11 dogs into our own family to live forever at the farm.
We did also experience some significant losses in 2022. One of our puppies was sadly stolen, Mr Yellow (Sunny) passed away sadly born with the worst liver shunt the surgeons had ever seen and of course our dear Faith left us also way too soon from a very aggressive cancer.
Another great loss for us was saying goodbye to our little farm day care in a genuine effort to give the rescue dogs in our care the time they really needed. A very very hard emotional decision for us personally. It sure took it’s toll on us in so many ways. But looking at where Chance, Rosco, Nevaeh and Molly were back then and how they were only going backwards. To where they are right now … we know 100% in our heart we made the right decision as much as it wasn’t understandably a popular decision at the time.
We haven’t chosen the easier of paths this year, but we do feel we end 2022 with our hearts full to the brim with love from all the doggies that have benefited from spending time in our care here at the farm.
To those that have supported us this year, we thank you. With everything we have, we sincerely thank you. We could not have done what we have in 2022 without you. Support to us, is absolutely everything. A kind encouraging word. A heartfelt letter of love and care. A small thoughtful gift for our family. We have followers that support us through membership and financial contribution and it has helped us to no end in affording the food and vet bills required to care for so many dogs this year. We thank you. And then finally, to all our community for watching our videos. Volunteering us your precious time for sometimes up to two hours a day! Wow. You all together have helped us make this achievable month on month. Our family and the doggies all thank you.
We’re very excited about what 2023 might bring. What new faces will we meet, help and fall in love with. Together.
We hope the new year brings you all much love and happiness or whatever it is you are hoping for in 2023. Thank you again, for helping us and being there for us throughout 2022. We look forward to sharing with you all, the farm again in 2023.
Thank you.

[@GretelandRoo]

Luke and Sam, I am convinced you are both living, breathing angels here on earth! You have done more volunteering service workin one year than most dog love do in a lifetime. You have put your money where your mouth is, paying for medical care which, I’m sure comes to more than an average persons yearly salary (many times for dogs who you were fostering) having an $400 PER DAY food bill, while spending countless hours cooking, feeding and clean up. I am 100% confident that you will reach your goal of becoming dog advocates, spreading your knowledge across the globe and I truly believe that, one day, the both of you will be household names. Thank you for sharing these amazing moments with us and making your viewers feel included in your journey. Bless you and your family and wishing you a happy and healthy NewYear 🎉❤😘🐩🫶🙋🏼‍♀️

The story of Faith and Hope is so heartbreaking while it's uplifting. To see the fear when they arrived, to see them have good food, good friends, human love not harm, to see them start to open like flower buds. The sadness of Faith's passing but to have been loved before leaving is precious. Now her beautiful daughter is getting good times enough for two. She so loves her Aunty Sam and is trusting Uncle Luke's love too. Thank you for the review Ben. Happiness, good health and good times for all the Evans'. Same to Jason and his family and all who work with you.

It is hard to believe all that happened in one year ! We shared in all the highs and lows with you from around the world, many of us eagerly awaiting for the next video, either at times for concern or just sheer pleasure watching the dogs having a wonderful time. What a year and way too much to list, so all that I can say is. I wish you all on the farm a very Happy New Year filled with all great joy throughout. and the same to all the huge farm followers wherever you are 🤍🎊🎈🎉💞

[@ganzalleine]

As sad, cruel and hard as it sounds, I feel like it was Faiths decision. I think she knew she wasn't doing well for a long time. When she knew she is safe with you guys and Hope is in good hands, the sense of security and all the comfort let her go to the place that she doesn't keep fighting anymore. I'm so grateful that she had unconditional love at the last moment of her life. I know this is selfish of me to say knowing how hurt you guys are, but I know Faith is beyond thankful that you two were there and are there for Hope. Thank you. J from Austria

[@blythemorrison8705]

Well that was a roller coaster! Just sobbing over all the puppies and the heartbreak over the break-in and loss of Mr. Yellow. Bless y’all for giving them the best life possible and all the love while they were here. Then immediately laughing at Luke covered in puppies, sniffing them all. Cried again at all the goodbyes and adoptions. Cried some more at the new rescues and how unhappy and traumatized they were. Laughing again at bus pickups and how happy Luke and the doggies are to see each other. Tears for the end of Daycare. Laughing some more at the big special forces guys running around on the beach with a pack of dogs. Big smiles for the Shelter Dog days and then an absolute mess again when Tanky and Chop-Chop decided they’d found their forever home whether you were ready or not. Wolfie knew Chop-chop was staying and Evie working her magic for Tanky. The heartbreak over the state of Faith and Hope and how they just pancaked into the ground. 💔 And more heartbreak when they were finally feeling safe that Faith got so sick so fast. Thank God she was with you guys and loved in her last months. Precious Lily and her sticks and another heartbreaking diagnosis. The awesome help and relief for the doggies from Dr. Neil. The surprise of Kitty Rose and Evie’s excitement. “She can’t understand why she can’t have a cat.” Cuts to a giant pack of barking, excited big dogs. 😂 So many fun family moments and special time with the kids! That Halloween video was so fun! Goodbye sweet Nevaeh, enjoy your new life with your forever family. Hope and Tank and Chopper being “Evans official” now. Poor Rover, he’s been through so much. Sam and Luke reading each other’s minds as usual. ❤️ The massive love and support of the Farm community to help out for Rover. He says he will NOT be settling down thank you very much, he’s back at the place with the people that get him. You two are cheeky, maybe I’m crazy but you seem to have a secret we don’t know about yet…bring on 2023 and I pray many blessings over the Farm and everyone it touches. Thank you for bringing light and love to the doggies and all of us around the world that love you. And now I’m off to cry some more…

2022 was sure Farm filled. Change in direction, sadness and joy, comings and goings. The year's standouts for me are Faith's and Hope's journey, with beautiful Faith's ending much too soon (I never realized how losing a dog I only "met" thru videos would affect me as much as losing one of my own), and lovely Hope' ending the best way possible ~ a Farm family adoption. She's shed her cocoon and now flies high ~ playing, running, and enjoying all that farm life offers. And Chancey Boy. My goodness, he is one magnificent dog. From such a fierce beginning to a doggo who enjoys pets, loves children, and can hang with Roscoe and be chill about it. Luke and Sam, for me, this transformation is nothing short of miraculous. But we never doubted your success and skills and Chance's determination to be a good boy. His smile lights up the screen and hearts worldwide. Now onto 2023. Wishing the Farm family, 2 and 4 legged, all members and subscribers a New Year filled with love, surprises, happiness, and most of all, shared Farm adventures just waiting ahead. 💞🐾💞

Sometimes I think the root of the world's problems is that some people hold too much empathy and compassion and others hold none at all. Rescue work is above all incredibly emotionally draining for anyone who cares at all for animals. I have enormous respect for those that do this work. I tried it for a couple of years (volunteering w/a cat rescue group) and got burnt out. Luke and Sam (as well as Pat and the other people at the shelter) are not only generous and compassionate but also very emotionally brave.

I hope the time with the family was enjoyable.... thanks again, have a safe and happy new year 🎉

All I can say is Thank You, Luke Sami, and Family, for opening your home and hearts to these beautiful Creatures. Happy New Year from Pennsylvania USA

How can Luke be so alert and upbeat at 4.30 am! What a guy.

[@bsusie1]

What a roller coaster of emotions. The sadness of seeing some leave, the joy seeing those adopted by the Evans, hearing the tragic beginnings of some, then the huge reward of seeing the progress. This past year has been a joy of sharing life with the Evans, and having my admiration for them grow daily💞

Thank you so much for the these wonderful memories for 2022. I can't be out among people without being masked up. I have badly compromised lungs so I'm limited in what I can do. For someone active throughout life it's tough. So I can live vicariously through the farm life. It brings laughs, it's wonderful to watch the children as they're growing. Especially since I don't have any children. So at this point, I would've had grandchildren. Watching your 3, 2 legged children, makes me happy and smile alot. I also miss having my dogs. At my age, and without any family after I'm gone, I am choosing not to have anymore young animals. So watching the antics of the pack daily really fills the niche of not having my own to love on. My rescue, feral, Torti cat is 8 & we watch the videos together. When she hears your voices or the dogs bark she comes running. She flops down next to me and watches. Miss Rosie the kitty really makes her talk to the screen and to me. So with much, much best wishes for a Happy New Year full of health, love, fun smooches from the fur pack and children pack and prosperity.

I know what you mean. I was going through chemo when I first found the Farm videos. On isolation, had to move to an apartment, sell my house, rehome my dog. The Farm videos saved my sanity if not my life. Before my health issues I had a dog walking pet sitting business with as many as 10 to 15 dogs in my house at a time. I really miss those days. The Farm helps.

Wishing you all the best for 2023, Lisa. We've been very lucky to find such a wonderful place to spend time. Lovely that your cat enjoys watching the goings-on with you. The Evans and their pack do wonders for so many of us. I definitely think watching is a form of self-care, if love and laughter, and distraction, are the best medicines.💛 Take care--from Sara in Ottawa.❤🤍❤

[@thoreenburkhardt3050]

It's absolutely amazing how much happened in 2022, and I thought of other topics not covered. Watching this video I was in awe of the amount of time and energy spent just running your business. You do all this and still manage to raise your wonderful children and take care of them! There's tons of food you are constantly cooking. You have goats and horses that you take care of. Then there must be plenty of poop that needs picking up! You know what I mean! Luke always has a red bag peeking out of the pocket of his shorts. Then there's the property to take care of. Luke did a video all about how certain plants and weeds grow that are dangerous to the dogs. Lest not forget the pools and that maintenance and upkeep. Whew! I'm getting tired. There's always holidays you decorate for, pictures to take, and last, but not least, rooms made up for puppies, and shelter dogs, and cabins for visiting family. There's trips to the vet and recently trips to the holistic vet!! How in the world do you do it all??? I believe that God blesses you each and every day and you have members that pray over you too. Thank you for all that you do to make this world a better place to live for all the dogs. Thank you for being you! Sending lots of love and best wishes for a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2023. I'm hanging up my 2023 Farm calendar today! 💜❤💚💛💙

Thank you from the USA! The Farm is family love compassion for all animals. Love you all ❤

I've always been curious what happened to the Mastiff X Great Dane puppies, Miss Pink/Luna, Miss Green/Daisy, Miss Yellow/Eddie, Mr Orange/Roger and Mr Blue/ Bluie? I miss Milo, Gilbert, Nala and so many of the Daycare Dogs. Thank you to the Evan Family for all that you give to the furrie babies and the fans who watch. Happy Holidays and and wonderful New Years

[@traceytheisen8067]

Many of the puppies adopted out have their own Instagram pages you can follow!

[@montygirl883]

@@traceytheisen8067 How would I find them on Instagram? Do you know which of them have Instagram pages?

[@carolwilliams8511]

Mr Blue is still called Blue. There's a video where Luke gives all their new names. One was Daisy I think. Can't remember the others and I'm not on Instagram.

[@patricialock3110]

That was so beautiful thank you, I care for you all at the Farm, I actually love you all, I know you better than I know some of my neighbours, and feel closer to you than to them, I know 2023 will have challengers, but I also know you both will face them head on and conquer them, people I have told about The Farm who now are followers its wonderful to watch them grow in awe as they watch the videos. Know that I will be there on the other side of the computer right through 2023 and beyond, All my love and hugs from Brisbane.

Happy, Happy New Year Evans Family. Thank you for...well everything this year. Thank you for the love you shared with us all in your endeavours to help special dogs. Thank you for your kindness, your honesty and integrity. Thank you for allowing us all to come along on your journey with you and allowing us a glimpse into your lives. Thank you for the laughs, smiles, tears of joy when someone gets adopted and also the tears of sadness when there was loss and heartache. You have made such a difference in so many lives, 2 legged and 4 legged. I know when I say this, your followers, your members and your community of supporters, wish you all the very best for the coming year. Happy New Year everyone. Stay safe. So excited to see what 2023 will bring. ❤️🎇🎆🎉🎊😀😀

Quite special- what a year! This has been a wonderful reflection of what's happened, the ups, the downs, the love. The dedication to, and successful rehabilitation of these misunderstood dogs. I am so very thankful to Luke, Sam, the kids, all staff/friends of The Farm, a place of continuous "miracles", which it has been a pleasure to watch- knowing that there is grace involved here, of course, but the dedication to and for these dogs by you folks sets the stage or grace to take hold. May this grace keep them, and you in this upcoming year. Looking forward to seeing what "we're" up to for the next revolution 'round the fireball!

2022 was made all the more amazing because of The Farm & its special 2 & 4 legged residents. There were smiles, interspersed with some tears and many woohoos! Coffee breaks, tea time, lunches & some time suppers had been an immersion into furry farm life, filled with a riot of joy, happiness & just a little worry (but I know all The Farm's challenges will be met head-on with lots of love, commitment & kindness with Special Forces skills thrown in.) Brava Evans family! Thank you for this little happy space on KZbin where humans really practiced humanity. Onwards! The Force is strong with this family💋💋💋
