This poor dog looks like he just lost his best friend. Absolutely heartbroken over someone. Absolutely loveable. Thank you for what you do for dogs, Rocky Kanaka. You are a champion among men.
Rocky, you are doing two really important things here: 1. you are doing the work of helping animals and comforting and loving them, and 2. you are modeling goodness and human decency and care, so other people can learn from you, and start to impact the world in our own small ways. Bless you, sweet man.
Second time roaming the streets. You kept saying we hope to reunite him. What I hope is he gets a great new home, he deserves that. Thanks for what you do. I would take him in a heartbeat!💕💕
He looks so sad and forlorn, like his whole world has just crumbled. I really hope he has a family that misses him because it looks like there is someone he misses. And his eyes are so pretty
Thank you for sitting with dogs, Rocky. Travis Kelce is a very scared and a very sad dog. You made his life better in this moment. Your kindness is felt by all dogs.
Ugh, I’d be there in a heartbeat to give him a home if his family doesn’t come. I can’t wait for the day when we can get a dog. Our apartment complex makes it difficult and me and my husband are literally counting the days. I’ve never been without a dog and my husband raised a German shepherd puppy to be a search and rescue dog so we are so excited when we get to go give one a good forever home.
I always wonder if shelters and apartment complexes could team up. If the apartment owners had some support to maybe help them provide a small dog park area, clean up after them, repair damage done to apartments by animals, sealing interiors to prevent pet smells from seeping in, and maybe some assurance that problem dogs could go back to the shelter if necessary, they would be much more likely to go for it. The cost of fixing up pet damage is one big reason they don't want animals, as is noise complaints. If residents had help training their dogs not to bark, it would help a lot. Being dog friendly with dog amenities might actually help them make more money per unit. :)
Sometimes a medical doctor may sign an order stating you need an emotional support animal.When people have an animal for most of their life it is emotionally disturbing to be without a pet. The landlord MUST allow an emotional support animal to my knowledge this is a federal law.
Pretty sure this is either a full breed or mixed with Jagdterrier (German Hunting Terrier) The only thing that gives me doubts is usually Jagd’s ears are floppy and males within the breed standard are around 25lbs . Amazing dogs not so good with cats or hamsters or anything like that. They are extremely aggressive towards prey animals. They are very versatile hunting dogs nerves of steel, amazing constitution they will get their prey, regardless of injuries, without fear. But this breed is a working dog breed , just like the search and rescue dog you raised , and wouldn’t be the best if you just wanted it for a pet.. unless you have a lot of acreage or access to a lot of acreage, to let them run and hunt to satisfy their prey Drive they are basically “one owner dogs” incredibly loyal. Ideal scenario this dog would go to a hunter or a farmer, dog would be able to kill a lot of rats and what not on a farm and he would be happy as pie lol. That little dog will go head to head with a raccoon and come out on top! a lion in a little terriers clothing❤ and they are escape artist too lol they will run away if they aren’t getting what they need. a lot of owners get the wrong type of dog for their lifestyle and they unfortunately end up in shelters.😢
@@wildflower1397 I don't know what you are talking about but the fragment about teaching dogs not to bark is confusing. Dogs must bark because they are living creatures
My dog valentine of 19 years died on Friday my life is upside down without her I adopted her from a shelter I can barely sleep in my house without her you are so so right life is so much better with dogs! Mine was special I’m not sure if I saved her or she saved me. My home is not the same. I hope this dog owner realizes how special their dog is and comes and gets him immediately. ❤
I am very sorry to hear that Debbie speaking from London. I have looked after over 250 different dogs when their Owners were away on holiday etc and I, always say the same to wonderful Owners, like you. Please give some real thought to, immediately, getting another dog as it is not disrespectful to Valentine but you can fill your empty home when another Dog that needs love and attention and it will help to stop you from feeling really down and dwelling on your loss and you will always have your treasured memories of your lovely dog.
@@timcampbellart Sorry to hear that Tim. It is not disrespectful as you will always have wonderful memories of your companion but I have never even waited 3 weeks as the house seems empty and I would be miserable ,so,as you are ,clearly, a wonderful Owner,please,consider giving another lucky dog a Home,My Friend:)
Rocky, it is a great pleasure to watch you connect with frightened and shy dogs!! You seem to know when and how to approach them, an amazing sensitivity to these poor, frightened babies! You truly ROCK, man!
Travis is such a dainty boy, taking the treats so gently, giving a little paw. Seems like he would be a great buddy to just have on your lap and relax. I hope we get an update with him groomed and brushed out, his coat texture is so interesting and he must look even more handsome after some TLC.
Thanks for everything you do Rocky! This poor baby definitely needs assurance and love! Looks like he is questioning why he got betrayed... I don't understand people who do such things to their pets. I can never!
Rocky, the things you do are miracles. I will not wrote more because I don' t want to cry. You are so noble human being... All the best for you from Poland.
Without knowing the full story about the owners, I won't condemn them -- perhaps he escaped a yard and just got pinched by animal control? Maybe they are financially struggling and doing everything within their financial means to try to give him a good life, but they simply can't. The bottom line is you just don't know. That being said, I do agree that if he was mistreated or neglected on purpose, that is absolutely deplorable - dogs only know unconditional love and it takes a lot to break that spirit. No dog deserves that. I sincerely hope this little guys finds his forever family and is given every ounce of love that beautiful little face deserves. His eyes are so mesmerizing.
If he's a terrier mix like mine is, then he's a little sweetie....a tender-hearted loverboy. Mine is all heart, plus a little bit of fear...and mine loves scratches like a massage. I 🙏🙏🙏🙏 pray that someone will gives him another chance and give him the attention that he needs. Thank you Rocky and thank your team. Thank you for your sensitivity I love your giant heart. 💯💖👍❤️Go Travis❤️
This dog is so adorable. His ears are too, cute. And the glances from his eyes are so expressive and soulful. Hope you find your forever home. You 100% deserve all that is good!
I adopted my precious Harriette from the shelter in April 2023. She turned out to be a miniature schnauzer with an undocked tail. Her face is crooked, she was so afraid of men but now she is my heart and joy. She loves men now and her tail will always be long and crooked. She was immediately spayed and I love her so. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for the puppies who are not loved.
This dog’s face and eyes are absolutely adorable! I hope and pray that he finds a forever home where he is loved and well taken care of. Best of luck buddy! Thanks Rocky for taking the time to show him that not all humans are bad. It’s amazing how far you got with him to actually get him to sit in your lap, great job once again, Rocky! 😊❤👏
What a precious boy! He really calmed down once you scooped him up and gave him your treats and love ❤ you made a difference in this little man’s life Rocky! Thank you for all you do! ❤
Too many humans just plain suck, and dont deserve the unconditional love that dogs give. This baby was treated like trash, but deserves to be treated like Royalty. I pray he gets the PAWFECT home!!😊
I am a senior and have contributed to sick kids hospital for many years. Now I think I will be changing my mind and donating to the shelters for animals as they have no parents to look out for them. I have 2 rescue dogs myself.
He is absolutely adorable. I would be very tempted to adopt him, but I live halfway around the world. I'm sure he'll find a great home soon, he's a sweetheart!
How could anyone abandon such a sweet boy who has those amazing eyebrows and ear tufts? So glad you brought him out of his fear state and gave him some well-deserved attention. I hope someone scoops him up for his forever home
He looks so defeated and heartbroken but he has so much to give. You can see it in his eyes and his demeanor. He’s a love bug. ❤❤❤. Good luck Travis. You’re a good boy! ❤❤
When you first went in there and he looked up with those huge brown eyes, he looked so sweet and adorable. He is cute, and I love his facial expressions.
I wish Travis a happy, loving forever home that knows the needs of a terrier type and can walk the dog. He is 5, and thus is past the very energetic age.
Travis is adorable his eyes just melt your heart. I bet once he is bathed and feels calmer he will really come to life. Thank you for sharing him with us❤
You work the magic like no other Rocky. We all saw the fear uncertainty and stress in Travises eyes and when you worked your magic, those emotions just melted away. Hope he either gets reunited with his family very soon or finds another family who'll continue to give him the love you shared with him. Just a suggestion, how about starting or inviting your members to start a picture gallery of their own furry children so their furball family members and dog lovers are one big happy community?
Greetings from Germany! I've just discovered your channel a few days ago and brim over with enthusiasm for what you do 🎉 Tears of joy every time one of those beautiful souls gets adopted and the whole staff applauses! ❤
All our pets are members of the family. I grew up with pets, spent my summers on our family farm, and have loved animals all my life. I Believe that they have souls and my husband believes that they’re angels sent to help us. All of them we adopted or needed a home and our lives have been so much richer for the love they have given us in the 42 years of our marriage. They are never forgotten. Heaven bless you all for the work you do. ❤❤❤
I gave my dogs some of your treats for the first time, yesterday...and they LOVED them. I'm not surprised that that little guy appreciated them, too. 🐾
Rocky, there are great men and then there are awesome men. You are, without doubt, the latter, a truly beautiful soul. Thank you for everything you do. Wishing you and your family the absolute best in life. 🙏 🌟 🐕 ❤
So sad, I just fell in love with this little guy. I just joined because of wanting updates on him. I live in Cape Town, South Africa, so obviously can’t adopt, but omigosh, sending a virtual treat and hug
7:17 - I adopted a kitten whose microchip fell out (the kitten was underweight and it was placed too near the skin) - as well as another kitten whose spay incision was so worryingly large and required extensive after care. It was later learned that both procedures were done by the same slap-dash vet from a few towns over, and, made me VERY grateful for the competency of our own local veterinarian.
It's heartbreaking that such a handsome boy, who is clearly a very good family dog, cuddly boy, can have his owners go 8 days without picking up. It's one thing giving up a pet you can no longer take care of, but to just abandon it.
I feel so bad for him. It’s like he’s so sad and his heart is broken. Wonder what his story is. Thank you for being there and showing him that there is people who are good, kind and warm. Someone he can trust. 🤗🤗🤗
The pups look downtrodden when they hear the vet telling Rocky their story. Then they visibly relax when Rocky reassures them and says good boy/girl. I swear they understand the words they hear.🐶
He’s so cute! My son would love that couch potato. He’s been sad since our last one passed away. I keep telling him one of these days we will find one who needs us!
Rocky you have such a good heart. I don't understand how people can do that- leave such vulnerable, trusting creatures. We always let them down, and they are so full of love. Thank you for doing what you do.
You are not talking '... a bunch of nonsense.' It is lovely hearing a man speak loving about his wife and her preferences. God bless you both. 🇬🇧🕊👑✝️👑🕊🇬🇧
I wanted to mention: POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS....is not necessarily the words but the ENERGY (positive) you send out to these furry ones! They sense this always! GREAT BONDING APPROACH!
Poor Baba Travis! I’m so sorry…his spirit just seemed so sad. I hope he perked up after this given the love he must have felt from you. Shared for sure. We love you Travis!❤️🙏❤️
Rocky, follow your sitting with dog videos, it is so heartwarming that people like you give so much to these needful companions, wish I could do the same. I did purchase hoodies for my family for Christmas gifts, as they like myself love what you do for them.
OMG I have his sister by another mother over here in Australia!! My girl is 13 now, so she's very frosted, but she looked exactly like him when I got her! I hope he finds a fantastic home really soon ❤
These sessions are gentle tutorials I reflect upon throughout my day. They are also a lesson in humility, compassion, gratitude and love. Pax et bonum, Rocky. Peace and everything good in this season of hope. 🎄
He is so lovely. So gentle and so much character in his face. Wishing him a loving and secure future. Thank you for championing him. He’s worth every effort.
Whatever you have in your treats it really works to help all the dogs you give them to. Thank You for all you do for them, and share with us these amazing creatures. Happy Holidays to you and all of yours
I’m in Texas . And a friend of mine has a lady down the street from her that has one just like that one and mine ! Thank You 🙏 for what you’re doing!!!!!!!
