She is going to be okay thanks to Animal Friends of the Valleys. I am working on a plan right now to help her and can't thank all of you enough for being such a big part of Sitting with Dogs. German Shepherds are such amazing dogs and with so many of them being in the animal shelter right now we have to do what it takes to help.

My oldest son died suddenly in a car crash and left me to take in his support dog. A beautiful shepherd. He cried like this dog because he wanted my son. I literally watched that dog die over the next year. Vet checks, special diet and all. I gave him everything. He died of a broken heart 11 months after my son passed. I pray everyday that they are together in heaven.

The two dogs family "will come this week" What? My little dog escaped from our wooden fenced yard and the pound had her. I knew within hours. I called and called. They said finally that they had him. I drove in the dark with my husband to get her ,because they said it was too late, and we were going to spring her because she was used to sleeping in a bed with us. I was so desperate. Of course they caught us. They allowed me to see her in the OUT DOOR CAGE. I cried all night long. We went down in the morning the second they opened and took our baby home. We were not trying to get out of the fine, we just needed him to be in his own bed and not to be scared of all the dogs barking and in a very strange place. Dogs are really our children. Imagine your child taken and put into a cage. The only good thing I can think of is that he could have been run over by a car if the pound did not pick him up. So for that we are grateful.

@@justice2255 I feel this. I would have been SO upset, omg. I probably would have chained myself to that cage and slept out there waiting for them to come back in the morning, LOL!! When I was very young, our Daisy was lost for 2 weeks and the grief we went through was indescribable. (I can't imagine how parents/caregivers can even function when a child is lost. I cannot imagine it.) We were so blessed to find her again - and extremely lucky, because this was WAY before the birth of the internet. My Pop Pop heard a local radio station doing their "Lost and Found" report and heard them mention a found dog that sounded like her with a family a few towns over, and we raced there and to this day I remember seeing her, about 20 pounds lighter and filthy and just an awful mess, but it was HER and I could just cry right now thinking about the pure relief and joy of that moment. She was so excited and happy to see us, she threw up right there on that poor family's floor 😂I still have one of her toys. Best dog in the world. So happy you got your baby back.❤

[@LauraCordes]

I see it too. Sometimes, when people fall into housing insecurity or homelessness, they bond with an animal who was also homeless. The human they depend on cannot provide their friend with the resources they need, through no fault of their own. They must surrender their friend to a person or organization who can provide that, and it's heartbreaking. Bless the homeless, the animals, and those who the love and compassion to help them. 🐕💕

@@user-gz9sy8rh6f _"We have to stop coming to superficial conclusions"_ indeed, which should *also* include the stubborn hear-say about this psychopath's purported trait of "loving" German Shepherds (so, not *all* dogs, or animals in general)... I'm willing to argue that his assumed "love" was nothing but a mixture of pragmatism and national chauvinism (but may not in that order): As canines and their national heritage go, there's hardly a more famous German breed than the "German Sheperd" (I'm 100% sure it'll be the #1 on every "Family Feud"-format quiz globally) and "famous" with good reason, bc it's not for nothing that they are the breed of choice for law-enforcement/security services/defence/etc the world over, for aeons; praised for their loyalty, intelligence, fearlessness, and *ultra-quick* learning capacity. So, I would argue that, to him, they 'represented' Germany, and that their characteristics ^mentioned earlier^ were the definitive reasons he *preferred* them so much: That's something completely different than "love", bc to feel love you have to be able to feel empathy, which was hardly the case with Adolf. Just like most evil-natured and spineless human excrements, he too had to compensate for his profound cowardice with dogs bc he was too gutless and feeble to protect and defend himself in case of physical attacks or dangerous situations, and needed trustworthy, courageous dogs to do the job for him (same goes for criminal filth for [ab]using Pitbull Terriers as their 1st choice). In conclusion, *yes,* I most definitely agree with the OP who quoted Kant's assertion: *_"We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals."_* Peace out... 😉

[@naebug1058]

To me it looked like she’s been on the streets for quite some time. I rescued a Shepard mix off the streets where I know that he’d been in a field for over a month and was 20-25 pounds under weight. Not as bad as her but she’s got a road ahead of her, once the medical gets resolved and she starts to feel better is where their mental and emotional behaviors start to show. From my own experiences I didn’t decompress mine enough before I threw him back into what I would call normal life. When they’re in fight or flight mode it takes time for their transformation.

Well one day he tackled a calf and had it by the throat and he was trying to kill it. My dad came home and saw it and decided to give my dog away. The last time I saw him I cried. He was under an old camper and he could hardly stand up. He was placed in this camper by the man who took him. My dad was mad 😡 about it but the guy said that "Quote " You told me to take him and you didn't care what. But I said he was my dog and I think I said that he was just being hurt for no reason.

Today I did check the local shelter (there's only one in the area, 20 miles away). I was somewhat surprised to see they had two prices for cats, depending on the age, and for a younger cat they want $200, which seems extremely high. They have one dog that I'd consider, about five years old, and only $50. There's another shelter about 50 miles away that I'm going to check tomorrow.

Soy española (Europa), no entiendo inglés, pero entiendo perfectamente lo que comunica este precioso ser. Está gritando: ¡necesito amor y atención!. Quien no sea capaz de conmoverse con su dulzura y necesidad de afecto, no se conmoverá con nada. Estoy segura de que encontrara una familia que la hará feliz. Merece serlo.

Rocky, this of all your videos hit my heart. i began helping with rescues of Spanish hunting dogs called Podencos. i went to Spain and brought back my first girl "Sara". She was emaciated like this sweet innocent. So much so that we fed her a good rebuilding diet but it took a long time for her to start showing improvement. She was rebuilding early organ damage before she could retain weight. Once that was progressing she shed a huge amount of hair because her body had been hanging on to whatever she had. As she became healthier she could finally get rid of her old hair to replace with new. And she transformed into a magnificent specimen. The sweetest natured girl but her body still thought it was desperately hungry. 8 years on, this has not changed. Food is her main preoccupation. iI is likely she will never recover from this. The most elegant, and affectionate dog. She demands lots of reassurance and love. When I saw this sweet girl and heard her cry it was like being stabbed. My Sara is with me still, along with two others Podencos, the joys of my life. This little angel crying out starving for food but also love and affection brought back all those memories. Thank you Rocky reminding me the value of this work.

[@robertsimmons2025]

Can you please give us a update about her and how she’s doing. And if she finds a new home. She deserves to be loved and taken care of. 🙏

[@riapoole2850]

She's so pitiful. So sweet. And she seems to need love even more than food. Her little cries just break my heart.

[@betty-janececile5214]

Omg so sad she wants love so much

[@metalmamasue3680]

She's probably starving and just doesn't understand that she has to have small, frequent feeds to let her stomach get used to food again. If she eats too much, too fast, it will just come up or she will get sick. It's beyond me how anyone can starve an animal or a child. Makes me so angry.

[@NellyBaileyCedar]

I found it interesting that she wouldn't touch the food in the bowl until you hand fed her a bit of it specifically. As soon as she knew it was okay to eat it and had the flavour and scent, she went for the bowl. The poor sweetheart. My two younger GSD's (one mix) reacted and ran to the TV when she started crying (I'd like to send you a couple pics as it was very sweet). They have been glued to the TV since very sad. They know she has "Owies" and understand a ton of words. I/we will be following her progress and can't wait to see her healthy and happy 💗

[@IdyllicMullet]

She reminds me of my Viviane. I found her in the woods in a similar state. She was terrified of people. She was likely dropped there and had been in the woods alone for months. It took a trap from Animal Control to get her as no one could get close. When I checked in with her, they told me she was going to be put down as she was too aggressive to adopt. I convinced them to let me take her. She was never aggressive. Just scared. I intended to just foster and train her but quickly realized that I was the only person she trusted. She's still learning that people can be cool but my blind kitty is her best buddy and the 3 of us do everything together

[@graceb3934]

You have done such a beautiful thing in adopting a dog that everybody else had given up on 💚 I adopted a cat who was similarly unapproachable (although with cats it's less of a potential danger, in some ways). She had been in the rescue centre for months and then in a foster home for 6 months, and no-one wanted her as she wouldn't let anyone get close to her. I adopted her because I kinda understood her, and also I didn't care if she wasn't affectionate and was also physically disabled (she had a gammy leg). I just wanted to give her a safe home, and to have a feline companion, regardless of how she behaved. I gave her all the time & space she needed to acclimatise to her new home, and didn't pressure her to be affectionate, and quite quickly she learned to trust me, and then to accept and give affection (but I always let her take the lead). Rescue pets just need to be accepted how they are, and given time...with patience and love they will find their way to trusting and loving again 🙏😌

Seeing the horrible things some of these babies go through is heartbreaking enough. But for some reason, it feels 10,000 times more heartbreaking when they’re still so incredibly gentle and sweet regardless of what they’ve been through. She has every right to be distrustful and angry with humans for how she’s been treated, yet she’s the sweetest angel. 😢❤

We adopted a dog like her so ematiated and probably ran away from the people treating her that way and we got her fattened up and she was with us for thirteen years and the sweetest nicest dog who had a life of love. Had to share with you because this is so hard to see a dog in that shape but we were able to change her life.
