Woman Spends 3 Years Trying To Catch Stray Dog | The Dodo Faith = Restored 

Bawling like I'm watching Oprah. Doing the ugly cry😁

was hiding in the long grass the whole time too.

M Mac it’s a joke

Bruh

I did love this comment. Even though I get it.

Hahaha brrroooo nooooo😂😭

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.

Mine is crying

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."💗🙏💗

s flo HAHA

It's the "onions of joy" where the nicest biggest and most beautiful flowers blossom from!! ❤ ..so don't eat it up! !

I hate onions

Wait what........ ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Yeah I’m tearing up a little

I didn't cry.

Alexis Brook @ I never see 🌈Angels 👼 in real life before. But in this video I saw two Angels 👼 who helped the lovely ❤️ 🐶 Dog.

Agreed! Finally, somebody understands the meaning of this rescue!

Spoiler: The dog was probably a farm dog and they just stole him...

Thank you for helping her! ❤

Aww thats sweet of you, don't give up whatever you do,it took 3 years to capture this dog lulu💕

@@pamspray1413 do not give up! It took me five years to get a feral cat to trust me enough to let me pet him. But once I did it only took a couple of months to get him to trust me enough to come inside when it was too cold out. He was only with me for about 2 years once we made friends but for that two years he was happier than I've ever seen him in the previous five. It's well worth the effort. Never give up.

Buy a trap I rescued two of my boys(Chance &Arrow). They want to be rescued. Some cities will loan you a trap to trap, neuter, and release for free. Havahart traps are good I see one at Lowe's for under $25. Looks like Amazon sells small animal traps too. Bait trap with tuna. Viola!

@@zodarian6705 -- thats great to hear , Never Give Up - I never had to rescue a stray but if I did you best believe i'd give it my all🐶🐕🐺😻💕

She did not deserve 3 years of chasing.

She obviously wanted to be a wild dog tho

@@notkaitlyn5368 I can see how some people might think she wanted to be alone but it's not the case i have been rescuing animals for most of my life and know that they lose trust in humans once they've been abused mistreated. So when they are being rescued it takes time to earn their trust back as they don't know if they are going to be abused again much like us humans if someone hurts us we usually run.

she raped her soul. what's wrong with just spending time with her and letting her go. why must you own her? if she likes you then she will come back to you. shes not an idiot.

@@EternalResonance because domestic animal were not meant to live in the wild, they were bred for THOUSANDS of years by humans. Dogs do NOT live in the wild, they are NOT wild animals. 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.

@@Tijggie82 What about the dog's health you know vets are a thing :/

@@chentorgeman3331... Did you know wild animals also get taken to the vet sometimes?

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.

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.

@@camimistowls7834 Completely agree. This dog was meant to live in the wild...

@@isitoveryet9525 no?

Cami [mistowls] probably since they gave her plastic bags to litter around the canyon and she probably might’ve ate some plastic with it.

CHECK OUT ALLEY CAT ALLIES.

T•Xaz•T it’s a good thing they caught her. Her vision was going bad you can tell cause he eyes were getting foggy. Most stray dogs in bad health lose their vision from what I’ve seen

bloobies espinoza but the plastic tho?

No they were helping her survive because she would’ve struggled to get food and shelter otherwise the dog would’ve died

Justamie 17 if that dog did not want to be captured.. then he has a already home. maybe there was a barn near or his owner was near you dont know these things.

Cynthia D. Yeah i agree

I thought that at first but 3 years, they would have been big and they would have been seen

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.

MrReatardsRus i thought the same! That’s why she was taking the food to the canyon then returning the next day.

I think she was too old to have pups.

that factory has long gone been shut down for business. though good point.

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.

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

R Vandenburg yeah this story was very weird

@@travis358 so why didnt the dog run away from its new owners if it wanted to live and stay in the wild?

R Vandenburg Maybe she had a rental that wouldn’t allow pets?

Exactly my thoughts. Probably live in a rich neighborhood where this is a common thing and no way that chubby bub was stray

@@jblps she wasn't chubby, you could see her ribs

@@sleepcrime That's normal for a lot of breeds especially large breeds should not be overweight.

@@jblps ok, well, I guess you figured out in 10 minutes what these people missed in three years +. Congratulations. These people must just be thundering idiots and accidental petknappers. If only everyone could have such unearned confidence in their presumptions as you, the world would be quite a place.

@@sleepcrime Lot's of under educated people out there when it comes to dogs. Ribs /= starving or even underweight and this was a healthy dog if you rewatch the video. In no part of the video was the dog underweight or malnourished. No need to get dramatic! -it's not clear cut and I never accused anyone of doing anything on purpose but that does in fact happen. In my opinion this dog likely had a home.

Ds Anand Yeah, i was wondering, how does she open the bag w/o ripping it open? Wouldn't she accidentally swallow plastic bits then? I can just imagine her lair, somewhere in the wilderness, with 1,500 plastic bags strewn about 😅

Or no bags. Just let her eat on the spot, and if she's too afraid to eat in front of people, leave after giving her the food. The last thing we need is more plastic on this planet.

Amy Connors thank you, I was annoyed at all the "U tOok hER fReedom" fuckers in these comments. I'm sure she had a lifetime worth of exploring, but now she can live the rest of her days receiving love, food, and a nice comfy bed.

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

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.

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.

I couldn't understand why they didn't pour the kibble into a bowl or just on the ground for her. It made no sense to give it to her inside of a plastic bag bc without thumbs, it's hard for her to open.

il les ramasser ces plastiques vous voyez bien que ce sont de bonnes personnes,

You negative, picky bastards

RDC Tarantula go cry some more

it's a legit concern here as human garbage is a big problem in this world and do a lot of damage and harm. it's good to be aware of such instead of making your garbage someone else problem. but I do believe these people have cleaned it up they probably knew where the dog eaten else indeed the place is full with plastic bags if the dog didn't ingested it with the food as that's a possibility to.

sushma p yeah hey:-\, don't think it was just a look

Probably her freedom

Probably glad she didn't need to live in the wilderness anymore

sushma p pups

I don't understand why some people think animals don't value their freedom. Even if they live longer in captivity, quality of life....

hey hey she she even used a feather to catch her, she did all she could! what else is better than using a feather? nothing beats that!

She didn't give a F.

@97RAVINEAVE when a dog gets older u don't need to feed it more than once a day

@97RAVINEAVE trackers, leashes, no? Never tought about that?

Look at bunch of Dog Trainers around here. clearly all of you don't know what's going on the dog. and you guys judging a lady tryna help someone someone. you what's your purpose on this planet?

The canyon duh

🤔

The dog used them to ship some "product"

Dog loves nature, she obviously recycled them

I'm here for the comments...

Geez....some people are absolutely ridiculous. This is a sweet story about a woman who dedicated 3 years of her life to save a dog, and that's what you complain about? People are so annoying. This wasn't a wild dog, living free with it's pack...it was someone's pet that was either lost or discarded. Bless them for helping!

this was indeed the most infuriating animal rescue story ever, she didn't care about the dog she was just doing it to feel like she's a good person for feeding it, otherwise she wouldn't be feeding it plastic for three years bc you can bet the dog did eat parts of the bags while trying to get in them, turning the canyon into a landfill in the process yeehaw

@@isitoveryet9525 Yes, but it's also a danger to the dog. There's no telling how much fucking plastic that dog ate on top of the dog leaving those bags everywhere. They should've just put it in a bowl on the other side of the fence or simply thrown the food over it as is

Miserable people will find any reason to be negative and cynical... it must be horrible to be you or to even be around you. Do the world a favor and don't procreate. The world has enough misery.

@meimie and you don't you miserable mound of flesh.

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.

in her defense, i think she did try to follow but wasn't able to.

@@maz1319 Yes but she said she told everyone the story of Lulu. I don't understand why not one of those people for 3 years thought to ask for help sooner.

New title: Adrenaline junkie couple gets off by taking dogs they dont need!! just for the sport of being on social media and getting likes. video cover image: crying kids who miss their stolen dog. Nice channel Dodo!

That was kind of rude though

@@batpie3750 What was rude? I thought he just found her over-the-top gushing to be embarrassing, and he responded with a kind of self-deprecating "Aw, shucks!" They're obviously the best of friends.

@@amymack1954 That is still rude to roll your eyes at someone. And if they were bestfriends she would have not had to wait years to call him for help just to catch this dog. But honestly why are we arguing over this it has no point.

fr they should of done that

I thought the same Cheap and easy

of course. we all know that home didn't have good left overs! not even culvers onion rings. only salads and kombucha!

@@EternalResonance translate in english

Yeah out in the freezing cold during the winter and scorching heats during the summer. Not to mention the Coyotes and other wild animals. Let's not forget humans are threat to. Dogs aren't ment to be in the wild, they depend on humans like we depend on them. That would be cruel to leave her out in the canyon, especially if she was getting older. Trust me, it was a good thing that she was caught, she's in a loving home now

@@jaxcrax358 lol she was already out there for a great amount of time. She got accustomed and could handle herself

She’s old and more prone to diseases and crap and that woman could give the dog meds and a check up

Thank you. That annoyed me too. Also, they make large size dog traps! Hello? Trap the thing and take her to a vet, don't let her live in the wilderness for years on end... if she didn't already have some other home and wasn't just coming over for plastic bags filled with food...

@Scarlett Cunningham ...and cats are a lot harder than dogs....

Yes, could have darted the dog! That annoyed me too :(

not everyone's terrified of living outside, think outside your box people.

Van Gogh's Ear it’s like a rich lady hobbies for her!

I bet you have negative karma

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

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.

@@jaguarsky55 I guess it means they really trust us, because animals won't leave their kids with just anyone. Same with me, that was the plan to find them homes but I couldn't find them homes and I could take care probably better than anyone anyway LOL

@Tobias Limosnero it wasn't a good life for her though, and the humans who helped did help her quality of life 100%

She Looks Blind

Like she didnt even want that frickin house

@ALMA GARCIA a wild dog free in the wild, nah it would have hated it.... Only in america do people not understand nature

Thats what I thought

Not a wild dog at all. Thats a human bred mastiff.

Hello Linda I think she was making the best of it God was seeing her through tell this Angel found her and open her heart and soul that is what makes the difference in this world to offer yourself to something so defenseless

I let my dogs run around in 50 acres freely and they seem to really enjoy it They like exploring and doing things on there own and they always come back by themselves when it starts to get dark

SharkSport lmaoo

Exactly

She would have a tracker

_Ant- .Ro- it was obviously a joke.

Lol that’s probably the case
