I don't understand how someone can be obsessed for 3 YEARS waking up crying, if she hadn't seen the dog the day before climbing thru the canyon etc. etc. and then adopt her out the minute she's caught. Makes no sense to me. The woman has invested, time, energy, money and Love....wouldn't she have been the best home for the dog?

[@victorysaber1608]

Think about something. All humans are born with empathy. Kindness. Now just like anger or happiness how do you release this feeling? Media has everyone afraid of thier neighbors. The political parties have everyone at war. We know so many fake people asking for handouts who are drug addicts or just fakes. Most cant donate because if you give once theyll call you daily. Most charity is 1 penny of every dollar or less. And after the red cross overhead thing with the twin towers people dont trust charity. So again I ask if you have the feelings of empathy, the need to give of yourself to help another. And humans basically corrupted it, I find it makes alot of sense to act in a way she did for this 3 years. I myself spent several months catching a set of feral kittens. The mom ate on our porch. And a opossum occasionally. Then 3 kittens came in tow. There in there teens now. Hopefully your alittle enlightened. Humans have so many emotions that have stigma attached. Men cant cry. Stuff like that. If you suppress it, it doesnt go away.

[@victorysaber1608]

I forgot to mention we tried to give away said kittens. But only could give away one. Other two still here.

It was kind of amazing that this old, huge dog was able to live a relatively healthy and happy life all by herself. I mean, she did not look like a broken dog at all. Just old. Some dogs just have that survival instinct and personality to make due. She must have an amazing personality.

[@max_coast]

Well, she's in coyote country and those are just dogs when you get down to it and they live in the wild. This dog obviously had been doing it a while and had its routine down well. So long as there's food, water, shelter and the dog is accustomed to doing some hunting and searching on its own AND it can either avoid predators or be large enough to not worry about them, like this dog, it should be okay. No coyote or pack is taking this sucker down, it's nearly three times the size. While she's busy crying I'm wondering what sort of crazy game this big girl has taken down. I bet there's 1 or 2 less outdoor cats in that neighborhood, lol.

She obvioslu had good intentions, but hope nobody else tries "rescuing" any dog the same way

[@camimistowls7834]

Morgan Bon Bogul why not? domesticated animals aren’t safe in the wild like that. she’s at risk of starvation, freezing, disease that can be prevented by vaccines, etc. aside from that, domestic dogs are very attached to humans. if she was avoiding people like that it most likely was not out of choice but actually out of fear. she had probably been abused and dumped/ran away.

[@camimistowls7834]

to add, it’s also likely that she wasn’t spayed, and would be at risk of getting pregnant and giving birth to puppies who would grow up wild.

They are not born of natural selection, they are born of artificial selection. That dog now has food, comfort, medical attention, love, and warmth, you don't think thats a bit better than living in a canyon? Any wild animal, disease, drought, or just a terrible person could have come across her and end her life earlier than what it could have been.

@@jubejube393 the dog already had food, as shown in the video. Millions of 'domesticated' dogs live on the street. In Thailand they live with the people, but no one owns them (except the special breed of course). Owning a dog is not necessarily the same as taking care of a dog.

With all my heart, I agree. The empathy of this loving woman (& of her friend Matthew, both of whom are truly angels), is deeply "heartening" & so very "beautiful." And to this I'll add... if this dear woman's compassion, if her desire to rescue an innocent dog & if the pure love in her heart for Lulu makes her "insane," then... as for ME & ALL OTHERS who feel the same love & compassion, who would have joined her in praying for Lulu's rescue & who also pray each day for the loving rescue of every helpless, innocent animal in need, well then... we should ALL be so blessed & would welcome being counted among the "insane."💗🙏💗

If she had new puppies she'd have been lactating. She'd have had a big "udder" and she would have been super agitated about leaving them. If she had older puppies they would have been touring around with her. So yeah, she did not have puppies. Good for you to think of it though; very thoughtful.

Not to mention, she's an old dog who will be needing veterinary care. I have never seen a stray dog adopted who was better off on their own. Dogs can survive a long time as a stray but they are much happier in a home.

Some dogs are meant to live wild

[@hurrytoworry]

Well they turn wild very quickly, some say even overnight, and if in the right environment dogs can survive quite well. In romania street dogs formed packs and were able to take down deer just like wolves. Most pet animals aren't these helpless beings that we think they are. Every animal has an innate drive to survive and that's exactly what they will do given the opportunity.

[@ALadyJett]

Exactly right Amy with everything you said,, but the same is true of cats (who tend to do it a little better) but change too when given love. They are mistrusting for good reasons and just scared. I cant' believe some of the stupid comments on here but obviously its a good thing she wasn't outside their houses as they would just ignore her.

So you been taking care of this dog and trying to catch lulu for 3 years just to give lulu to a different family

[@michellepaul8514]

Jay Rock That’s what most people do who rescue dogs most of the time. They rescue them and foster and find them a forever home by letting someone adopt them.

[@julichio6241]

Honestly I also can't understand. You could have kept her and leave her in the place she was loving and considered her territory

[@yeehaw4092]

people who foster adopt the dog out so they can continue to foster. if they keep the dog they’re fostering, that usually means they’re unable to foster anymore due to caring for their own animal they’ve just adopted, they end up caring for too many animals, or they are unable to care financially for the dog for its entire life. not to mention this woman already had a dog, and she just might not have been able to have two. most people who foster continue to foster and let animals go to forever homes so they can meet the next dog, who might be just as amazing and loving! or they might find a dog or cat in another bad situation and take care of them. if they take in the first dog, the second, third, so on may not have a chance or they’d never get to meet them and have these wonderful experiences.

[@yeehaw4092]

she may have been able to care for Lulu for 3 years, but unable to care for Lulu for her entire life so she sent her to a home where she’d know Lulu would have the best life possible. there are many reasons people don’t keep the dogs they take care of

This is a beautiful video! I am tearing up because this has been my life for a year and a half now, but with a stray/feral cat, and I have hope of a happy ending someday. My boys and I have made a lot of progress, but I can't tell you how many times I have cried, worried and looked for her. She always comes back to our yard, her cat condo, water and food... And 3 people who really adore her. I pray someday she will live with us, or another family, and live her life surrounded by people who love her. I am so happy this story ended the way it did for Lulu. She is a beautiful creature who has so much love to give. Her eyes are so kind and beautiful. Thank you for all your hard work. She is so worth it ❣️

Poor lulu, glad she was finally rescued, but why THREE YEARS!?? Hope for paws couldve helped, or any other organization if she just would've reached out to someone. Also, what if the dogs owner died in the canyon or something? Should've followed the dog to see where she was going

maybe she had a pack of friends, maybe she was bringing the food to pups? Maybe Lulu's "rescue" aka capture was a catastrophy for them, but the humans had their warm feelings, and apparently, that's all what matters here.

[@RenegadeTimes]

Lost animals are so fortunate when humans care and take action. Lucky LuLu. Please spay and neuter your pets. My local shelter just had a 2-Day Adopt-a-thon. 20 dogs went out to loving homes including mine and many cats were homed too. They know with winter and disasters they need room for more. Please be a conscientious pet owner. If you can no longer care for your pet find a no-kill shelter to bring them to. Be the owner your pet thinks you are. ; ) Care right for them.

[@JaneCooper190072]

Totally agree I have 10 Cats and that's just because there was a stray in my backyard and she'd bring her litters directly to my backdoor , but you better believe all 10 of them are spayed & neutered

[@jaguarsky55]

I also have 10 from stray/feral mamas that deposit their new babies on the doorstep and then leave. I find homes for the ones I can but usually end up keeping the ones who are less adoptable. We have colony cats as well, only a few old ones left though. I also have six dogs that are rescues in a long line of many.

[@JaneCooper190072]

dogs are domesticated and don’t belong out in the wild, even if they seem happy. not only are they invasive, but they are at risk of disease, starvation, and freezing. if they have puppies they will end up producing dangerous, human-aggressive dogs that will have to be euthanized.
