  • This 173-pound golden retriever was neglected and almost euthanized by his previous owners. But a foster mom stepped in when the vets knew there was hope for Kai on a strict diet and fitness routine. Watch this amazing dog lose over 100 pounds and half his body weight.

    Something that I admire about this dog every time I watch this video is he rarely loses a smile. As she said, “people may have given up on him, but he never gave up on himself.” I love this video and watch it all the time. She undertook a monumental task without any obligation to see it through, but she did. That’s what makes me happy. She saw his strength and he saw his will.

      I really don't think they meant to. Dog food can cost a lot, more than likely they just didn't know what they were doing. And they went to the vet to put him down,because he was so overweight he couldn't get up, which to me sounds like a good reason. Like leaving him like that sounds awful -- you can tell they didn't want to do that they gave him to someone who can take care of him better.

    Look at that! He wanted to run and play, he really did. The BEST thing you did, was just to START. Well done.

    In all the videos I have seen concerning animals who are either mistreated, neglected, abandoned or what have you the one thing that remains consistent is when you give them love, REAL LOVE(the kind of love that doesn't run out on you and sticks with you through thick and thin and gives you what you NEED and not just what you want and knows when to say YES and NO) the outcome is the same. REAL LOVE is LIFE CHANGING! If we as human beings could do this to one another what a better world this would be.

    Imagine if the vet didn't have a mindset like that. We could've lost a wonderful animal
