Dog Rescued From Puppy Mill Learns What It Is To Be Loved | The Dodo Foster Diaries 

Puppy mills are horrific. The people running them are sociopathic. Thank you for giving this guy a chance.

I lost my 14 year old chocolate lab this morning. Charlie looks just like him ❤️ Rest In Peace Porter, I'll see you on the other side bud

So glad you kept Charlie Brown. To move to another home even after a few months would have just been another trauma to him...

Thanks for giving him forever home. I am an retired old man 80 years old. Alwas adopted stray dogs from shelter for past 60 years or so. Still two of them are with me. Good companion at my age. God bless you, your family and those good looking dogs.

when she said “we’re keeping him forever” i spontaneously grew a tail and it started wagging ferociously!!!

Why do I alway fall for those innocent eyes? Every dog I look into their eyes I just see so much innocence and joy when they play.

My husband and I are retired and decided to get a rescue Lab. Her name is Charlotte and when I watched this video, it was the identical story we went through. Charlotte came out of her shell in about about three weeks and since she doesn’t have a tail to wag she has this awesome grin. Each day gets better for her and she is the best dog we have ever had. 😀

These people are true heroes. Whoever failed this sweetie before these heroes stepped in deserves to step on Legos for the rest of their life.

Ohhh, who doesn’t like happy endings. 🥰🐕

The best is when the hooman says we decide to keep him forever. Happy Endings are the best

May God bless you abundantly for rescuing Charlie Brown and giving one of God’s treasures a forever home. You’ve already received one of His blessings, Mr. Brown.

A heartfelt thanks to you for giving Charlie Brown a normal life!

The light in his eyes as time progresses after being saved is just heartwarming. Thank you for giving him a furrever home 💖

I love watching foster fails. Glad he found his home with the people he opened up to trust.

Geez, this really hurt to watch. I had a chocolate lab and she was such happy and confident dog. Seeing this boy so scared and beaten down broke my heart.

This dog fell into the perfect family, Such a lucky boy.

What's also sad is when they flinch when you pet them because no one has ever pet him before 😭😭

I could never foster dogs because I'd end up adopting all of them!

I love how gentle he is with Belle, and how calm she is with him.

Terrible to see him so traumatised he couldn’t even walk. So glad he found a loving home.

So sad they had to teach him how to be a dog. But thank God he was saved! And he will enjoy the rest if his life! ❤

Damn those invisible ninjas cutting onions.

Few things warm and cheer me like these stories. You people are so beautiful. You really are. I'm so glad you're keeping our wonderful Mr Brown. He so deserves you!

I have always felt great admiration for people who foster pets. Take them from frightened timid beasts to fully functioning pets. That part must be easy compared to the heart breaking need to part with them to their forever home. I could not do that!

Aww!! The perfect name for that sweet boy! "Charlie Brown"😊

To see the evolution from a being who tried to dissolve into the ground to one bounding across the grass and most importantly, back into the arms of those who KNOW he is the GOODEST of boys is what life is all about!! Good Boi Mr Brown ♥️🐾♥️🐾♥️

Thank you for rescuing Charlie! He has come so far, & I'm glad he found a home with you.

Dogs = Love. Never, ever, EVER give up on a dog. Ever.

Imagine how scary the world is when you've only ever known a tiny cage. Beautiful boy. Wishing him a long happy life❤️❤️

Charlie Brown: Was I a good boy? Anyone{Honestly}: I saw you were one of the best boys.

I was very happy you kept Charlie Brown. Dear Lab was traumatized and your family love so touched him. I don't think I could have taken the idea you would adopt him out to another family. ❤ Thank you I am so moved.

I am so glad you kept him! What a wonderful life you are giving him.

I AM SO HAPPY YOU DIDN'T LET HIM GO ANYWHERE ELSE......HE WAS MEANT TO BE WITH YOUR FAMILY....I ADMIRE WHAT YOU DO..........

Thanks so much for keeping him,he must have suffered so much

Thank you for keeping Charlie. He's so sweet and together you make such a great family.

He's so pretty. I would have kept him too. You guys did a good job with him.

When that nice lady said “We decided to keep him forever”....tears of happiness just ran from my eyes....I love a happy ending, and Charlie Brown deserves all the love, compassion, and protection that his new family will shower him with! 🐾❤️🐾

I wish all animals got help like this! :(

He is sweet, he is gorgeous! Who would not fall in love!!

I never knew how horrible puppy Mills are. Been learning a lot. Thanks for giving this dog love and keeping him.

My boyfriend and I adopted a dog like the day before lockdown and she's still very timid but she loves to run and play now! Her names Dottie and I love her!

HOW in the world is there 81 people who thumbs down this? 81 heartless bums. This is a beautiful story!

Thank you for giving him a loving life that he deserves. God bless

When we lost our lab of 11 yrs to cancer it was devastating. Our children were 4 and 2 when we brought him home. They were shattered and we were heartbroken. We swore to never have another dog as the pain was something we didn't think we could bear again. About 3 mos in our boys came to us and told us that our house didn't feel like home anymore. We had noticed also, it was quiet and kinda cold feeling. What I hadn't told them was I had been having dreams where I had a snow white/cream Lab named Gus. I was literally dreaming of having this new dog every night. A week later we found a litter about an hour from our house. When we arrived there was a snow white puppy left and we were extatic. The only catch was this little guy was unseperable from his brother. They did everything together and were joined at the hip. We did some financial wrangling and somehow came home with not 1 but 2 lab puppies. It's a little crazy at home now with Gus and Gibson (Gibby) but man it feels wonderful to have our house full and warm and feeling like home again. Gus and Gibby's Labrador adventures!

"So we've had Charlie Brown for one week, and he's getting a little bit braver every day." _Dog climbs onto couch_

I still remember my chocolate lab. We grew up together and everything... Rest in peace, Lily. You were the best.

I couldn’t give that baby up either! Thank you for giving him a home forever 🙏

Yay!!! You had me at naming him Charlie Brown, but I was waiting for the inevitable sadness of your taking him to his "forever" family.....again, YAY!!!

My heart just aches for pups and any animal bred in “mills”

Thank you for anybody who ever rescued a dog ❤️ my heart goes out to any dog in a puppy mill

I'm so glad you decided to keep him. Having him go to another home after everything he had been through may have broken his spirit and reversed all of the work you did to bring out his happiness. God bless Charlie Brown and his forever family.

I believe that's called a "foster fail" 🤣🤣 but it's for the best, it will be hard for him to learn to trust yet another family.

Such a gentle boy. He truly deserves the VIP - Life !!!

I rescued a black lab at just short of a year old. 18 years later she died quietly in her sleep on my lap. Labs are so affectionate. You guys are awesome for saving him. Live happy Charlie.

I got teary when you decided to keep him. This was meant to happen. Please give Charlie Brown a huge pat from me. 😊

This shows that love can heal anyone. As long as that anyone accepts to be loved.

He Learned How To Be A LAB!! Tail Wagging And Thumping On The Floor-That's When He Came Out Of His Shell! ;-)

My choc lab was named Waldo. His owner was going a few times a year to Los Vegas. He needed to find Waldo a home at 5 yrs old. So my husband and I took Waldo. He was so smart, so funny and very loving. He never quit talking, never barked. Didn't help any when my husband and I antaganized him to be a nut. We loved him so much. I am glad you shared this video of Charlie Brown. He reminded me of my Waldo, same beautiful color. Thank you for the memories you gave me.

So glad you kept Charlie Brown!!! He is a special doggie! He’s beautiful ♥️

This breaks my heart that his spirit was so broken but the angels that step in to help, pure love. 🙏🏻

Poor pup! I'm so glad he is with a good family now ❤

Thank You for loving Charlie and helping him, bravo to you for all you've done it's a beautiful thing!!

I love it when fosters become family. Im so happy.

Charlie Brown! I like that name. Grew up watching the Easter, Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Christmas specials

Oh sweetie . Million kisses to you , and God bless who saved you 💞

30 days of patience for him and the love to give, God bless you.Thank you so much.

Love that Charlie Brown found a forever home!

Right from the start you can see hes such a sweet dog.

he looks so much more confident now!

I’m so glad you kept him 😢 He needed a steady home. I feel like having to go to another family would have broken his heart even more.

There's nothing more wonderful than being a foster fail. That Mr Charlie Brown is exactly where he needs to be💕

I knew half way through the video he had found his forever home. Congrats to all of you. You are a lucky,sweet boy CB...❤🐶

I'm happy to see him finally wagging his tail 💜💜💜

"... he would just pancake on the ground". There is nothing I love more about the English language than its ability to turn any noun into a verb simply by conjugating it ❤️

Thank you for adopting Charlie Brown. He now looks happy!

Gotta love the sound of that tail thumping.

All dogs deserve love I really love dogs that's why I have seven and that's why I recently created a youtube channel for them. They mean a lot too me and love to spread my love for them through social media . But DODO will always be inspirational.🐶💖

How could you not love this dog. So glad his life wasn't turned upside down by going to yet another home. Yay Charlie Brown. Tail Wags!!!

My heart is leaping for Mr. Brown! He's such a handsome and happy boy now. :)

What a little love and patience can do. I would’ve kept him too. Love these stories.

Yay..this makes me so happy..thank you for keeping Charlie Brown...he’s such a sweetie..❤️

Charlie Brown is such a handsome boy. Stories like this restores my hope for humanity. Our cats and dogs enrich our lives and give it meaning and purpose. We may save them, but they also save us. Cheers to the Clement family for being amazing pet parents. Please adopt and save a life!

So glad you kept him, he would have been crushed to go after trusting ya'll so.

I am happy for you CHARLIE 🙏🙌

The rage I feel for what is being perpetrated on these little guys almost makes me pass out.

My wife and I have a 14 year old chocolate lab. We love Charlie Brown! We’ve watched this video many times. Thank you for the love you have given to the lovable CB! 😊😊😊

At this point I'm not sure if there have been any dodo videos that haven't made me cry 😭. This sweet boy is clearly so thankful and, like his new family, has a beautiful soul.♥️♥️♥️

this is what love and respect does ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

He's the most precious thing ever💖💖💕

I am so pleased you kept him...he reminds me of my black lab whom I lost to cancer 2 years ago...I miss him every day...he was 2 month away from his 12th birthday when he passed.

Am I the only one speaking to him through the screen?! Certified Trainer/Dog Rescuer and LOVER!

The people that did this to him should have to live the exact way he did!

Thank you Dodo for sharing that story. I love these ladies for adopting Charlie Brown. He has the perfect home now. What a gorgeous pup.

He’s so beautiful. It’s just awful what greed does to people mistreating pets. Such a beautiful creature and so much emotional trauma. Thank God for this dog’s resilience to overcome the past suffering

Foster Fail! I know it's been two years, but I just saw this- so happy for you and Charlie!!

Other dog owners: no getting onto the couch!! Charlie's owner: *GoOD BOy* !!!

Omg u are the goodest boy Charlie! Million of hugs and kisses for you from me!

Charlie is a champion and he and Belle are an unbeatable pairing. All kudos to you from bringing out the best in Charlie and giving him the great life experiences he deserves.

I am so glad that Charlie Brown was kept in the family. To get so close to him and to give so much love to him, he would be decimated to go to someone else. Thank you. Take care and be safe.

He really came around quite quickly when you consider how long he was used as something that no one could call a dog. I wish him much happiness and health. ❤️❤️☮️
