Dogs are a lot of work for sure. Great alternative if you want some pet love! I travel a lot as well but I have a dog and have a wonderful dog sitter that she absolutely loves, so I have the best of both worlds :)
This is a great video to address the issue of puppies being bought for Christmas and then dumped. It's so tragic and the shelter statistics for euthanasia are shocking. Marmalade is so cute. Awww I love the cat that bats the camera.
Hi Ella! Yeah, it's a sad thing, when people make such long term decisions around these holidays. Luckily, the shelter that we visited (Best Friends Animal Society) is a no-kill shelter! Oh.. now I miss Marmalade!

What are your Christmas plans this year 🌲? Planning to walk a dog or spend some of your time helping out at a sanctuary close to your town? Hugs, Doris & Matthias
This is great! Awesome message and such a great alternative - I definitely want to give this a try. Strangely enough, a dog had a taste of my microphone just a few days ago haha. They can't resist the fluffiness!
Again your editing skills! 😍 btw you’re completely right snout it! People should definitely adopt their dogs from sanctuary then buying them somewhere else! 👍🏻 great video hope it will send the msg to many people
Happy you're sharing the same thoughts about dog adoption! There are too many lovely dogs in shelters who are waiting for a new home, so why go to a breeder. Thanks for watching! Doris & Matthias 🐻
Soooo true! Dogs are so precious but more than just a toy to play with on Christmas morning, and it's not right to force that responsibility on someone who didn't ask for it or isn't ready for it. Also, Marmalade is so cute! :)
That sounds lovely, as long as you're sure about it and don't return it after the holidays (like unfortunately many others do). Otherwise just visit a local shelter to get some interims dog love 🐶😍! Cheers, Doris & Matthias 🐻
That means a lot to us, thanks guys! Yep, we keep hearing about that issue, so we thought we use our visit at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary for good and spread the message. Cheers, Doris & Matthias.
Excelent! Here in Brazil, pet adoption is increasing every year. I have many friends who adoptem cats and dogs! Leila has one Daschund and always help friends who want to adopt! 😄
I definitely am against giving a pet as a gift, I used to volunteer at a pound and Xmas was the worst time to be working there, because of the people dumping their dogs and cats at the pound as they have no idea how to look after them. What angered me the most, majority of the people doing the dumping were parents of kids!
That's such a short-sighted decision people are making. I'm just happy that there's a big public discussion around it already and hope people are getting more and more aware! Thanks! Doris & Matthias
What dog do you have and what's the second one you've just gotten yesterday 🐶! How was it? I'm sure you're not the kind of guy who would return it after the holidays 😄. Curious about your new friend! Cheers, Doris & Matthias 🐻
Haha... glad to hear you're dog coming from that place is now living the good life on your side! What breed is it? Can't remember seeing it on your videos. 🤷♂️ Cheers, Doris & Matthias 🐻
Hey Alexis, glad to see you over here as well! Really appreciate you! Yes, we enjoyed our USA road trip a lot, travelling through Montana, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, ... Have you already seen the video about our recent hikes in Utah (🎥ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GArYiunfAQs.html)? Arizona was really beautiful as well! Cheers, Doris & Matthias 🐻
