Timothy Lyndsay Shaddock, 54, disembarked with his dog Bella in the Mexican city of Manzanillo after being examined onboard the boat that rescued him, the Maria Delia.
Shaddock said he was grateful to the captain and fishing company that saved his life and he added he would be returning to Australia soon and was looking forward to seeing his family. Bella was adopted by Genaro Rosales, a crew member from Mazatlan.

The poor dog. What a way to get rewarded for helping him get through such a tough ordeal. This sucks.

@shari9721 Год назад

It is very hard to bring a dog into Australia and the dog is locked up in quarantine the entire time and costs a lot of money .

@josephrodriguez5510 Год назад

Why? She was a street dog and then it was adopted by a sailor, also it went viral in Mexico, I doubt that dog will spend any other day of her life hungry.

@kb4432 Год назад

Bella is the luckiest dog in the world. It's now a celebrity in mexico

@lailisima Год назад

WHY would he leave a dog that helped him survive by keeping him company? He seems like a kind man... so that feels ah, unexpected to say the least!

@JanetuChristian Год назад

I dont understand that too

@Hirmikss Год назад

Hes got no more need for emergency food :) but for real most likely either a "payment" or they wouldnt allow dogs onboard of a plane that he'll be taking back to australia

@elephantintheroom5678 Год назад

Maybe he doesn't want the dog to spend months in quarantine in order to get into Australia.

@DFlemming Год назад

My feelings exactly! Pity.

@zoemcclinton5183 Год назад

It's because he lives in Australia and it's VERY hard and expensive to bring a dog back into that country is what I read. So that's really the main reason why he couldn't take the dog back with him. Since he is going back home!

@mariafernandez5087 Год назад

If I were not able to bring Bella back with me after 3 months lost at sea, I would just have to say, well I guess I won't be going back home just yet

Totally agree I would say If Bella cant enter Australia I refuse until you let her.

I'm only here for the dog, I'm happy for him also for the fisherman.

@don7294 Год назад

Something is not right about this story. I watched another video where he says he did NOT send out a mayday call even while texting with relatives. He said he had his finger on the button but, never pressed it???. Then he gives up the dog that most certainly helped him survive. I am a wilderness survival instructor, and I can tell you how important the dog must have been to his psychological welfare. Surely the quarantine in Australia isn't that difficult.

@llhannah9297 Год назад

I can't believe the dog was given away so quickly. That's terrible. She's likely traumatized and heartbroken. And if it's due to Australia quarantine laws, can there not be a petition or something? This dog is a hero. And I don't trust the guy that took her because it's like they stole a dog from a man who had just been rescued. Give it a minute sheesh. That dog belongs to this sailor. Somebody needs to make it happen.

@riittahietanen5703 Год назад

I was crushed in learning that he did not keep Bella. You could tell that the dog wanted to stay with the man and he earned the right to stay with him. Shaddock's rescue story is much diminished by this unhappy (to me) ending.

@equarg Год назад

Look up Australian quarantine laws…….. Trust me, this was the kinder option. She would of been in a cage, alone, for weeks maybe months. I remember as a kid how Hawaiian quarantine rules changed our Boxer Clementines personality. She went from chill and relaxed to super territorial to other dogs. It changed her.

@enwozndhks Год назад

In addition to the rules of his country about animals, the dog was not his, she followed him when she met him in La Paz but it is a stray dog

@mimiseeyou Год назад

I hope the dog adopter waits on a call to get Bella back if it comes. This man is in extreme trauma and survived it with this other animal. He needs time to get well and her too, but this bond may be hard to lose. Also, how did no one ask what water purifier he had on board?!

There is a chance that the guy was a drug runner that ran into problems. Those fisherman who picked him up were probably trained to handle just that situation.

He looks so happy to see other humans…… He may live the sea, but will probably stay closer to shore after this. Also, quarantine rules are soul breaking from animals going into Australia. Rehoming her was the kinder option in this situation.

Classic story of Saturn in Pisces. Saturn represents “ black or brown” and black and brown dogs, birds and a few other animals represent archetype of Saturn. Pisces is water/ ocean etc. Astrologers predicted all sorts of “ ocean” related headlines since March when Saturn entered Pisces. I’ve noticed crazy headlines involving water/ocean since March. It’ll continue until 2025. This dog channeled Saturn which helped him live.

Drugs and weapons? Ugh. If you go watch the full video, he is asked that SEVERAL times even though he said NO the first time, and then the first thing they want to do is search the boat. I mean READ the f*ing room! The man started crying when you approached, is all alone and is clearly emaciated. How about provide some f*ing assistance before you start your cavity search. I mean! Try not to shoot him dead, I know it will be really hard for you!

Before asking if he had any drugs or weapons, it would have been better to ask "What happened to you?" And say "We come to rescue you", etc. But I guess he didn't care about what they asked.

@JLDReactions Год назад

I feel like the guy was just doing his job and following protocol. "What happened to you or I've come to rescue you" might not be thing first thing he is required to ask. For all they knew, he could have been a hostile, drug smuggler in disguise.

@owlman_ Год назад

These are Mexican territorial waters, and a common route for foreign drug smugglers. Things may be different in your country where nothing bad has ever happened, but here we need to make sure WE are safe before tending to others.
