I can't believe she gave me her trust in the end with that little act ❤Everyone go check out Sundays for all of the help they are giving us in helping dogs like Princess! www.rockykanaka.com/sundays
@rockykanaka you are incredible! I love your videos I so would love to do a sitting with dogs with you!! Keep up the amazing hard but beautiful work you do!
Thank you Rocky for letting this amazing beautiful girl know that she is loved. You made me cry but for a good reason. ❤. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I adopted a dog that was this shut down, wouldn’t stand or walk. Very skinny and full of fleas. Wouldn’t go through doors or up stairs and with a busy environment would have a meltdown, sounded like you were killing him. Took a little time and turned into the best dog. Had him for 12 years and lost him a couple of months ago, he is greatly missed.
@@D-B-Cooper it’s the ones that need that extra understanding and patience that turn out to be the best! I have my Remy who I rescued when he was 2 years old and was very shut down and no experience being inside a house. He’s the biggest love bug now and loves cuddles and squeaky toys. I’m sorry for your loss. We lost our cat two weeks ago too. 💔
I often wonder if previous owners have ever seen a video of their pets, how much it hurts the animals to be there. It’s like they are in jail….”what did I do wrong”, “Where’s my home, my bed, my people “? Poor sweet doggie 😢😢❤❤
I'm a veteran with PTSD and your videos are so relaxing. I can empathize with each dog so much when they are tight and forcing themselves into a wall. I can see their emotions in their eyes, the fear. Then, when you get them to relax, I can feel your happiness, and the dog's relaxation states kick in. It feels amazing. When Princess goes from tight muscles cowering in your lap to eating treats and panting and actually feeling good being held, its so nice. :D Thank you for what you do!
@@calimero600Many veterans do have dogs for just that reason. Dogs are so great for so many of our vets who suffer with PTSD. Dogs are very good for anyone who suffers from a variety of such mental stressors, not just those that come from military service. Did you know that just petting a dog is mentally beneficial, people who have them live longer than those who do not. I’ve been a nurse my whole life, since I was 17 years old and that’s many, many years. I wouldn’t trade those years but all those years primarily in the ER cannot help but leave their mark on your soul. There are faces in my mind that will never leave. I wouldn’t be without my dogs for anything, they don’t seem to mind being my therapy spirits and I love them as dearly as a child.
That "I'm not here, you can't see me" melting into the wall literally broke me! I rescued a great dane who had been starved and abused her whole two years, and when I met her she was trying so hard to curl into a ball the size of a chihuahua, shaking like a leaf and trying so hard to be invisible. She was my best friend, absolute soulmate for six amazing, beautiful, far too short years! I was 14 when I found her, and since then I have always rescued, and always picked the dog that needs the most support, that everyone else walks past. The dog that's curled up in the corner, wondering if they'll ever know love again. THAT is my dog, and every dog I've rescued has shown themselves to be a dog in a million!
I think we may be soul sisters because I'm the same way. Give me the cat or dog that nobody else wants for whatever reason, I'll happily adopt them and let them rescue me.
I’m a psychotherapist and I think it’s wonderful that you explain psychology because someone out there may be feeling the same way. So your helping dogs and people ❤❤❤
@@alexandrapomeroy8050 yes, exactly as he spoke of stress & anxiety, the physiology of it, that makes sense for me, about me. Thank you for this remark. As I listened to him I thought of my issues. 👏✌️😊
@@alexandrapomeroy8050 his words really resonated as someone with PTSD. The toll this disorder takes on my physical health is significant but often overlooked/dismissed/invalidated by medical professionals. This was validating. That poor baby. I know how she feels. Pure fear. Dear sweet baby 😢
10000%. I have C-PTSD and OCD so 2 different "the fear part of my brain is malfunctioning" issues and I find these videos EXTREMELY heartwarming because I see myself in these dogs and it makes me unbelievably happy to see them come out of that fear. (Especially the catatonia-like shutdown)
I'm not sure why this video came up on my timeline but I feel like it genuinely just changed the trajectory of my life. I don't know why I waste so much time trying to get validation and approval from people when there are so many dogs who need love. Going to seek a shelter to volunteer in first thing in the am! Edit: I found a place near where I live in Vermont to volunteer! I’m currently being vetted after sending in an application. They have plenty dog volunteers but need people for kitty playtime and some office admin stuff. Can’t wait!
@@iuliasil5879 I did! There’s a humane society literally blocks from where I live in Vermont. The hours are totally reasonable and I’m currently being vetted. They have plenty volunteers for dogs but need people to play with cats and also some admin/office stuff. Wish me luck!
@@KatieDeGo hey! Im not sure why my comment is gone but I found a place near where I live in Vermont. Hours are very reasonable and there’s an application and vetting process. They have plenty volunteers for dogs but they need people to help with cat play time and some small admin stuff. Currently being vetted right now! 😊
OMG, when she tried to ball up further into the corner and the fear in her eyes... My gosh, I wish I could have acres and acres of land to take these dogs in. I fall in love with all of them featured on this show.
Rocky, I saw the video about PRINCESS about 2 weeks ago, and I left a comment immediately. My wife and I are in Houston TX. If Princess is still available for adoption, we would be happy to have her in our family. We already have a husky (Mama).....Mama and Princess not only look alike, but share a similar history. We put in the work, and Mama is now the most adorable dog in the world. We are sure that Mama can/will help Princess overcome whatever she's going through. My wife would make all the necessary inquiries first thing tomorrow morning. We hope she's still available for adoption.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Click on the title of the show just below the video. More information will drop down, including a link to how/where to adopt Princess. Fingers crossed.
Saddest thing I’ve ever seen. My love for dogs makes me feel so sick . I’m so happy you were here for this sweet darling. It’s going to take so much love and patience.
Poor little baby girl😢. Thank you, Rocky, from the bottom of my heart for giving these loves a voice. Thank you, all, for caring and supporting this process❤❤❤
Rocky, du bist der Seelenretter für „Primzessin“, und so viele andere Hunde. Du bist ein Engel auf Erden, mit deiner mitfühlenden Art gibst du den Hunden neuen Lebensmut. Danke für deine hingebungsvolle Arbeit, diesen Hunden Liebe und Hoffnung zu schenken! ❤❤❤
She was turned in by animal control. They don't know the exact circumstances, if the owner called animal control to fetch her and for what reasons. Sometimes neighbors call animal control if a dog is misbehaving or mistreated. She could have been a stray before - since we don't know where her owner got her from. Could have been also a family death or whatever. She looks so traumatized.😢
For her to be so shut down like that is heartbreaking 🥺 That precious girl should be brimming with energy and love. I have faith though, she's gonna find her forever home 💖💖💖💖
She looks almost identical to my husky - she's all white and this just breaks my heart how she's trying to crawl into that corner. Thank you for taking time to help her out.
Because humans are capable of being the most violent/derrange/demented/evil creatures on the planet...more so than any other animal ever could be...but luckly there is the opposite as well.
@@angelahill3556 Because SOME people are bad. We're the only animals on the planet capable of metacognition and having principles. But if you grow up abused, or raised in an environment where no one else teaches or shows respect for animals or other people then you're probably going to be just like that.
@@Peaches-i2i I was raised by two narcissistic sociopaths and abused all my young life into my adult life until I stopped it. I never wanted to hurt animals all I wanted to do was help them because there were a lot like me. We have free will to do good or do bad people choose to do bad.
I am an elderly lady who is 72 yrs old. My husband is 74. We lost our small dog in February. I feel like i need a companion again but I fear that I might can't take care of it. But yet I feel the need to have one. I loved my little Buddy. He meant so much to me.
@@dianneradford3192 have you considered fostering??? There are so many dogs in rescues and shelters that need a loving temporary home and these organisations are begging for foster homes, plus they cover all the costs 💕🐾
Talk to the shelter. I have heard of some rescues that let seniors foster senior dogs and they take care of of vet costs and transporting Might have something loke that intour area
Could I recommend a cat? My old lady is 15, her health is going, and so is mine. So far, she’s great. Overweight, but happy and playing. Eating like the pot bellied pig she looks like. But she has cancer. I’ve decided against treatment. It’s not money. She is a dignified old lady, still loving toys and being a boss. I won’t cause, or allow that to change. When it’s time, I’ll do the right thing. I always wanted a solid grey cat. I’ve had a few, over the years. They died, before I could get them grown. My daughter has promised me a grey kitten, when sassy crosses the rainbow bridge. I also have a ferret. I DO NOT RECOMMEND A FERRET. I love her with an intensity that runs my life, but she is chaos in furry noodle form. I’m not being disloyal to my current critters, but, I need a critter to love, and a cat is peaceful.
I had a beautiful Husky named Zeus. Rescued him from a breeding farm & he had fleas & internal parasites. Went straight to the vet, got him healthy and he lived to 13. We had to say goodbye this past May due to old age and the pain due to his old age. During those years, we rescued a dozen cats from the streets and Zeus loved them all. Since his passing, I've thought about rescuing another dog, but finding one that can live peacefully with all our cats has proved very difficult. So far, we haven't found that special dog. I wonder if Princess has had positive interactions with felines. I'll be following her progress and praying for a beauty family to give her a new life with them. She's soooo precious and the Momma in me wants to wrap her in my arms, sing softly and shower her in kisses and cuddles. Thanks Rocky for your beautiful heart. Your purpose is so important! God Bless
Thank u for ur rescuing and looking for a puppers that likes cats. Zeus would want u to continue giving love to another puppers. ❤ Love is a terrible thing to waste. ❤❤
Because some people are purely evil and get their kicks from hurting creatures like this beautiful girl. They will get their judgement and punishment in the end. It's a cruel world we live in unfortunately.
Not necessarily. Just being abandoned by her owners could cause a dog to shut down. She's terrified, doesn't know where she is or why her family left her.
There is a group, and I wish I knew where I had the information - if I find it I will post it - that actually used to, and I hope still does, setup soft music piping through intercoms on the walls for free - another shelter had TVs on the walls with either soft music or dog TV or such - and the difference it made for the animals was just night and day, absolutely amazing, the peace for the animals was palpable in each place that used these methods. Please, this is something that I can’t believe isn’t done everywhere. It really makes a difference with the animals to have soft music or viewing - or both! - for the precious animals to decompress by.
We rescued a 10 month old Husky that was found on the side of the 91 Freeway in Riverside, CA... you could count her ribs and she was beyond traumatized. She is 13 now and has been the most wonderful addition to our family and we feel we hit the Husky lottery when she chose us.
Same we rescued a husky mix. He was 2 yo and you could see all his ribs and that was after the rescue put 10 lbs on him. He is the sweetest boy, he has some osteoarthritis issues as he's getting older because he had some fractures before he was rescued. I don't even want to imagine what he went through in those first 2 years. 😢❤
Princess is really shut down. You have such patience with these frightened dogs and you have won her heart. She is so pretty. I hope she finds a really lovely home. Princess is going to make a wonderful companion to a lucky person.
This girl is so very cute. I have tears seeing how shut down she is. I just want to love her so she loves herself. Thank you for the work you do and the education you share.
@@edp3202 i know whoever takes the time..with love n patience will show her she's SAFE now n LOVED. I have only respect for those that help her. Blessings..
I chose to go homeless to keep my dog. So glad I did. BTW I am disabled and elderly. I have taken on 4 dogs since the passing of my best friend. I believe he would be pleased with me because he used to take me to dogs that had been run over but we're alive. He saved a mother in the middle of a night where she was having babies in a football field. Yes sir! He was amazing.
Have a dog that acts and looks a lot like this one. She's 12 now, still doesn't care much to be pet, doesn't show affection. But she likes to be close to us. Sometimes if they've been abused, that's all they have to give. We love Luna, and believe she loves us, she just doesn't know how to show it. We don't mind, she gives us the best of what she can, and we do the same. It's sad when they're this broken.
I love what you said here. Our adopted dog was not abused - she was 6 months old when we got her and now that she’s 2 years old - her whole world is tennis balls. She absolutely has no off button when it comes to throwing the tennis ball around in the back yard. She’s not shutdown by any means. I will say was hoping for a more affectionate dog but she’s not the most affectionate girl. However, just because a dog isn’t exactly what you want it to be, doesn’t mean that dog is a “throw away”. Just like people have their own personalities, so do dogs. That doesn’t make them any less in need of love or an outsider that people should get rid of. I accept her for who she is and love her all the same. ❤
@@tevssn I think that's wonderful! Just accept her as she is. So many won't take the time. We've had Luna since she was about 2 (the vet was guessing). On the way to work one day, I saw a man trying to chase her into a road busy with dump trumps working the area. The next time I saw her, he was in his yard beating her with large stick. She was very abused. I stopped to talk to him about her one day and he told me he was going to kill her, I offered him money that if he could get his hands on her (and don't hit her!) I'd be back and pay him. She's never had a hand raised to her since, other than out of love. Luna (Lulu) is our sweet, shy baby :)
What a beautiful girl. It kills my heart seeing a dog this afraid. It should never be a thing for any animal. Im sorry baby girl. You are loved. I promise!
Rocky, Thank you and.the people that you work with for all of the Animals that you share with with us.May God Bless you all for the love you have for Animals. Many Blessings to you all. Will always keep you all in our Prayers.
I adopted a dog who came from an amish breeding situation. He was only 23 months old and did not know how to be a dog. They put him in an auction and a kind lady stepped in and bought him, had him neutered and than ask a rescue near me to find him a forever home. I've had him just a little over a month now and he has come so far. It brought my heart to see this beauty to be so shut down....she has so much love to give and the joy when she took that first treat....wow! Thank you so much for doing what you do. God bless you.
Yeah, what's up with Amish Breeders in Pennsylvania? Not sure if the dog you're referring to was from PA. But, I had a short, weird experience with one, and now you brought up another Amish experience.
@@irritatedkitty7301Idk but there’s a rescue organization in NY that has posted on YT that rescued horses from situations where the horses weren’t treated well…they also came from Amish communities.
@@irritatedkitty7301 I have a neighbor who rescued an older dog from Amish breeders in PA. The dog apparently had never even been on grass before. Spent her whole life in a cage, and the second she got too old to breed they got rid of her. I'm dissapointed to find out that this isn't an unusual situation in Amish country.
I can’t believe anyone would leave negative comments about what you’re doing Rocky! I am so in awe of what you guys do to help these animals whose spirit has been broken. As humans we can all understand what it’s like to feel abandoned or alone and you’re giving them such a gift, the gift of your love and understanding. Thank you for all you do🩷🩷🩷
I can't imagine abandoning your dog. I walked the streets of NY every day walking in and out of leasing offices until I found an affordable apartment that allowed dogs. I didn't have much money when I was younger and got my dog but I played with her with sticks and balls we found in the park. I shared my food with her, just plain veggies rice and some chicken. I spent hours training her after reading books and watching videos on how to train your dog. Dogs can be expensive if you buy them everything, but even if you don't have much you can still give them enough. No matter what I went through she was there by my side. My friends watched her for me when I needed it. I wish people understood how much responsibility a dog is, and I wish no dog ever was abused or neglected ever again.
Puse traductor, es un usted una persona que aprecia la y respeta mucho la naturaleza, me alegra de esto. Hay demasiada maldad con los animales de este planeta en especial los domesticos que están muy cerca de nosotros. Parece que ellos cargan nuestras calamidades y nuestras culpas 😔🫂🐶
@@yaditas3826 I would never givey dog away. I always have had a rescue dog. The one I have now is a saluki lurcher cross. She was used as a bait dog. She was very anxious when we got her. Now after two years she is the most loving and loyal friend. She is so bonded with my two grandchildren and watches them when they are out in the front of the house and doesn't settle till they come home. If they are next door for two long she lets herself out and into nextdoor to get them to come home. Never would I have thought that the broken animal I took in would change into this wonderful friend.
@@yaditas3826 Yo estoy totalmente de acuerdo con Ud. Es una desgracia que nosotros hacen tanto terrible dano a criaturas dulces e inocentes, quien Dios nos dio como regalo. Muchos no los aprecian y los maltratan. Necesitamos despertar de est mentalidad miserable, y comprender que ESTOS ANIMALITOS TIENEN TAN BUEN CORAZON, SON MUY SENSITIVOS E INTELIGENTES. Por favor, antes de adoptar a un animal, piense que es un enorme regalo, y tambien requiere mucha responsabilidad. No son un par de chanclas que uno puede cambiar o tirar a la basura. Son seres tan inocentes quienes nos dan su amor y lealdad totalmente. Ojala que habra mas excelentes seres humanos como Ud. y como Rocky, quienes donan tiempo y les ayudan despasito a poder tener fe en la humanidad otra vez. Yo les deseo a todos la perfecta persona con quienes tendran una ideal comunicacion y estaran juntos, felizes, para el resto de sus vidas. Cuando los veo sufrir, yo me enfermo tambien. Pero es necesario a luchar por ellos en cada manera que podemos. Yo he tenido un gran perro, hermoso, blanco Aleman, und joya de un alma, y 7 gatitos, uno tras otro, hasta tener tres por on rato. Perdi el ultimo hace casi 5 anos, y mi corazon aun duele. Ame a cada uno, y todos tenian diferentes personalidades adorables. Ahora estan con Dios y les doy las gracias para haber traido tanto amor a mi vida!
It makes my heart glad to see her getting the help she needs. As someone who’s had PTSD my whole life, I understand the fear state all too well, kindness and patience truly are the key!
All animals I've owned were rescues. Dogs, cats, horses, and pygmy goats. I'm certified in massage therapy for animals (dogs and horses specifically). All had been abused, some for years. I used massage work to gain trust and help them understand "hands don't have to hurt".. The 180° they made in behavior was so amazing it still makes me cry when I talk about it today. My present kitty just turned 16. He gets a massage daily since the day I brought him home. ❤
Huskys are emotionally very fragile. It is said that dogs are like 3 year olds but with Huskys it is more like a 2 year old. They have an amazing capacity and need for love ... more than any dog I have ever owned and I'm old. This Husky had gotten to the point in its life when it knew it was loved and returned that love. That is why she is so crushed because losing the owner she loves and she knew loved her is devastating to such a soul. Her story, what we can make of it is very sad. Huskys who do not act like this in shelter do so because their owners didn't genuinely love them and so they had not loved the owner. Huskys often behave detached. This increases if they have no attachment to their owner. They are just owner. The last Husky I rescued was so feral when I got her all the neighbors were afraid of her. It took a lot of time and patience but a year later she is the sweetest girl you'll ever meet and she obeys me ... most of the time (she's still a Husky). She has never had any training of any kind (she can sit) but she is sweet because she knows she is safe and obedient because she loves and is loved. Very few people truly understands these dogs. For an initial meeting you did everything right. They love the sound of a human voice. It calms them. It doesn't matter what you say.
If America or California have awards for good deeds, Rocky should be nominated. So if there is, many of us would cheer if someone from California would enter this wonderful caring and clearly loving human. Rocky you are a star. What you do MATTERS. ❤️💖💟💫🐕🐕🦺🦮🇦🇺
The state of Princess during the first 25 minutes of this video LITERALLY has me bawling! 😭😭. It breaks my heart to see a beautiful creature so dead inside, most likely from LACK OF LOVE & COMPANIONSHIP! 😢 THANK YOU for choosing to work with Princess and giving her the WILL TO WANT TO LIVE. ❤❤
If you’ve been broken from life you understand what these dogs have been through. I empathize with these dogs. If I could I would adopt everyone. The Asher house does that. But, I am 68 years old, have had 2 new hips, a new back, now I am battling cancer. But, it makes my heart happy to see you doing this!
You seem like a wonderful, compassionate woman, Judy. I hope the cancer can be successfully treated so you can enjoy life with your "new" hips and back...and maybe a cat, dog or small animal (a pair of rabbits, guinea pigs). Take good care.
36:41 I think explaining how a fear response presents itself in dogs is important to both old and new viewers. It's a good reminder for those of us who have watched your videos, and it's great education for people who might really love dogs but don't really understand them.
The beginning of this video brought me to tears. I've never seen a dog SO shutdown. Poor baby!!! The things some animals endure is heartbreaking. So grateful for kind-hearted people willing to take time with them and/or offer them a loving home.
I have never seen a dog more shut down as Princess was during the first half of this video. Some of these dogs truly need more time with you than other dogs. She is such a gorgeous girl. Her eyes are amazingly beautiful and almost look like 2 small circles of light. Now she needs a really good brushing, a good bath, more time with you, some training and a very loving home who will love her for the rest of her life… never giving up on her.
I'll take her. I had a husky who passed from old age years ago. My daughter has a beautiful husky now. We love them. Great dogs. I'm in KY if you can get her to me. It's just hubby and I, so we have lots of time, space, and love to give her.
This poor puppy😮😢Seriously- this just broke my heart open. -I’ve been locked up for so long and watching this video reminded me of me and how I felt. Thank you so much for what you do !!I think I need a dog- I’m seriously crying --I’m a grown ___woman--
It was heartbreaking to see this girl pressing her head to the wall! I admire that you have the courage to touch a dog in this frozen state. This time you seemed to have a "hopeless case" - but in your lap she came a bit out of her shell...
Because of watching Rocky’s video, we have adopted a 2 year old Alaskan Husky crossed with a Shepherd. She is so amazing, we are working through her trauma, but oh my word, we just love her. She loves our grandchildren and our cats! As well as other dogs! She is an answer to my anxiety! She is so beautiful and loving!
A year ago I adopted almost the same dog. White Shepherd/Husky mix. It was like having Helen Keller. Intense fear and lack of socialization. First 6 months were intense--play is the answer. My guy is the most gentle, kind dog, but once out of his shell there is so much joy and energy. We got him another dog to help with confidence. Confidence is the opposite of fear. Thanks for helping Princess, She will be amazing!
The lovely darling just came to life. She is classy, gentle and gorgeous. She deserves the best of everything and complete security, safety, happiness and understanding always.
I went over to a local shelter a few days ago and loved on them. They were all so friendly, I was kind of surprised. I can’t take any home with me, but I’m going to go over and volunteer as I’m able. There was a husky that was my favorite. She was adopted yesterday to live on a farm. I was so happy for her.
Rocky, please do another video on Princess. I wanna know how she's doing now. She is such a BEAUTIFUL dog. You owe your subscribers another video about Princess........ PLEASE!!!!!!!!????😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The explanations are very necessary and I thank you for helping her and the rest. You do an amazing job. I pray though that you also make sure to do extensive background and home checks and visits before placing again. Otherwise it’s a crapshoot and you’re risking the animals to be placed into absolutely horrific situations with people who are good actors but evil inside. I have heartwrenchingly seen this too many times. Just as you would with a baby, a child, you would not just place them without extensive research. As such, these animals are trusting you, so please do not betray that trust, but do everything possible to place properly into a good and loving caring forever home. God bless precious Husky and you all for going the extra distance to do right by these precious souls.

Thank you Rocky for letting this amazing beautiful girl know that she is loved. You made me cry but for a good reason. ❤. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I adopted a dog that was this shut down, wouldn’t stand or walk. Very skinny and full of fleas. Wouldn’t go through doors or up stairs and with a busy environment would have a meltdown, sounded like you were killing him. Took a little time and turned into the best dog. Had him for 12 years and lost him a couple of months ago, he is greatly missed.
I'm so sorry for your loss! RIP sweet one!
I'm so sorry for your loss 😢❤
Thank you for putting in the hard work. I'm so glad you were able to turn him around and have 12 great years. I'm sure he is resting in peace & love.
I believe he’s watching over you and thanking you every single day for your patience and love. 💕
@@D-B-Cooper it’s the ones that need that extra understanding and patience that turn out to be the best! I have my Remy who I rescued when he was 2 years old and was very shut down and no experience being inside a house. He’s the biggest love bug now and loves cuddles and squeaky toys.
I’m sorry for your loss. We lost our cat two weeks ago too. 💔
Broke my heart seeing her little face pressed up against the corner. ❤❤
Totally 😞❤️❤️❤️
So sad.
I often wonder if previous owners have ever seen a video of their pets, how much it hurts the animals to be there. It’s like they are in jail….”what did I do wrong”, “Where’s my home, my bed, my people “? Poor sweet doggie 😢😢❤❤
I so agree, so sad, just makes you want to cry. My dog is so spoiled and pampered! Im in the U.K.
DITTO
I'm a veteran with PTSD and your videos are so relaxing. I can empathize with each dog so much when they are tight and forcing themselves into a wall. I can see their emotions in their eyes, the fear. Then, when you get them to relax, I can feel your happiness, and the dog's relaxation states kick in. It feels amazing. When Princess goes from tight muscles cowering in your lap to eating treats and panting and actually feeling good being held, its so nice. :D Thank you for what you do!
Why don't you adopt a dog? Dogs are great for PTSD! You can help each other!!
@@calimero600Many veterans do have dogs for just that reason. Dogs are so great for so many of our vets who suffer with PTSD. Dogs are very good for anyone who suffers from a variety of such mental stressors, not just those that come from military service. Did you know that just petting a dog is mentally beneficial, people who have them live longer than those who do not. I’ve been a nurse my whole life, since I was 17 years old and that’s many, many years. I wouldn’t trade those years but all those years primarily in the ER cannot help but leave their mark on your soul. There are faces in my mind that will never leave. I wouldn’t be without my dogs for anything, they don’t seem to mind being my therapy spirits and I love them as dearly as a child.
And thank you!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Big hugs. I have it too. And I love these dogs and I love our vets!
Thank you for your service to our country. Air Force Brat, here. My father was a veteran of WW11, Korea, and Vietnam. I always honor our veterans!
Never trust anyone who doesn't love animals. These videos are so touching because it is really about love in action
I agree 100%
I mran, some animals. I'm sure we all hate mosquitos.
That "I'm not here, you can't see me" melting into the wall literally broke me!
I rescued a great dane who had been starved and abused her whole two years, and when I met her she was trying so hard to curl into a ball the size of a chihuahua, shaking like a leaf and trying so hard to be invisible.
She was my best friend, absolute soulmate for six amazing, beautiful, far too short years!
I was 14 when I found her, and since then I have always rescued, and always picked the dog that needs the most support, that everyone else walks past. The dog that's curled up in the corner, wondering if they'll ever know love again. THAT is my dog, and every dog I've rescued has shown themselves to be a dog in a million!
You're also a special kind of person. Glad you could rescue the great dane❤
I want to follow you. What name would you be under? Prayers for work you do. Blessings.
You are a wonderful person, thank you 🩷💐
That is so amazing. I love how you say it and I love what you do. Thank you so much rescuing the toughest dog
I think we may be soul sisters because I'm the same way. Give me the cat or dog that nobody else wants for whatever reason, I'll happily adopt them and let them rescue me.
I’m a psychotherapist and I think it’s wonderful that you explain psychology because someone out there may be feeling the same way. So your helping dogs and people ❤❤❤
I don’t have any degrees but I hear what u r saying n it’s so true. I been there. Noe I’m 67 n I have 3 loving dogs. They help.
How do you adopt these babies
@@alexandrapomeroy8050 yes, exactly as he spoke of stress & anxiety, the physiology of it, that makes sense for me, about me. Thank you for this remark. As I listened to him I thought of my issues. 👏✌️😊
@@alexandrapomeroy8050 his words really resonated as someone with PTSD. The toll this disorder takes on my physical health is significant but often overlooked/dismissed/invalidated by medical professionals. This was validating.
That poor baby. I know how she feels. Pure fear. Dear sweet baby 😢
10000%. I have C-PTSD and OCD so 2 different "the fear part of my brain is malfunctioning" issues and I find these videos EXTREMELY heartwarming because I see myself in these dogs and it makes me unbelievably happy to see them come out of that fear. (Especially the catatonia-like shutdown)
No bad dogs. Only bad owners. Beautiful baby.

You sound like Mr. Miyagi.
Ignorant owners. Some people just don't know what they don't know. It goes for all of us.
Define bad. Pit bulls are genetically programmed to kill. Many are ticking time bombs and it's delusional to think otherwise.
I'm not sure why this video came up on my timeline but I feel like it genuinely just changed the trajectory of my life. I don't know why I waste so much time trying to get validation and approval from people when there are so many dogs who need love. Going to seek a shelter to volunteer in first thing in the am!
Edit: I found a place near where I live in Vermont to volunteer! I’m currently being vetted after sending in an application. They have plenty dog volunteers but need people for kitty playtime and some office admin stuff. Can’t wait!
@@Nando_Disco Did you find a place to volunteer?
Update, been thinking same for years
Hey, how's the shelter search going Nando?
@@iuliasil5879 I did! There’s a humane society literally blocks from where I live in Vermont. The hours are totally reasonable and I’m currently being vetted. They have plenty volunteers for dogs but need people to play with cats and also some admin/office stuff. Wish me luck!
@@KatieDeGo hey! Im not sure why my comment is gone but I found a place near where I live in Vermont. Hours are very reasonable and there’s an application and vetting process.

OMG, when she tried to ball up further into the corner and the fear in her eyes... My gosh, I wish I could have acres and acres of land to take these dogs in. I fall in love with all of them featured on this show.
@@LeoGirl0727 me too my thoughts exactly 😭 what a sweet pure soul. They all deserve such love in return
I feel the same way.
Princess is such a lovely girl and rocky you do an amazing job
me too! We will all end up with dog and cat ranches LOLZ
I always say that too. My lottery dream is to have a dog sanctuary!
She is so beautiful and yet so pitiful. She looks heartbroken.
Absolutely !
Clinical depression
Rocky, I saw the video about PRINCESS about 2 weeks ago, and I left a comment immediately. My wife and I are in Houston TX. If Princess is still available for adoption, we would be happy to have her in our family. We already have a husky (Mama).....Mama and Princess not only look alike, but share a similar history. We put in the work, and Mama is now the most adorable dog in the world. We are sure that Mama can/will help Princess overcome whatever she's going through. My wife would make all the necessary inquiries first thing tomorrow morning. We hope she's still available for adoption.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Any response for Rocky or the shelter.
Do they have a direct contact like to reach out?
Click on the title of the show just below the video. More information will drop down, including a link to how/where to adopt Princess. Fingers crossed.
@@terripebsworth9623 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I hope she can find a wonderful home like yours! The poor girl would probably be the sweetest most loyal dog when she finds her people.
Saddest thing I’ve ever seen. My love for dogs makes me feel so sick . I’m so happy you were here for this sweet darling. It’s going to take so much love and patience.
I feel the same,i want to sit with dogs.i think i need to get me some dog training courses done.
Poor little baby girl😢. Thank you, Rocky, from the bottom of my heart for giving these loves a voice. Thank you, all, for caring and supporting this process❤❤❤
Thank you so much. Appreciate you being on this journey with me and being a member 💪❤

Rocky is one in a million

Oh poor, poor baby. Such suffering for stray dogs. Shelters are hero’s. Rocky is a hero.
She's not a stray - she was turned in by her owner(s).
She was turned in by animal control. They don't know the exact circumstances, if the owner called animal control to fetch her and for what reasons. Sometimes neighbors call animal control if a dog is misbehaving or mistreated. She could have been a stray before - since we don't know where her owner got her from. Could have been also a family death or whatever.
She looks so traumatized.😢
Yes ❤all the way around ❤
Not all shelters.
Her sadness hurts my heart so much.
Definitely traumatized with unbelievable fear and hopelessness. Thank you, Rocky.
Unfortunately, we can not pick up the children and help them and tk them some where safe.
She is such a pretty and good girl. Thank you for caring to help her. I wish her all the best, poor dear!❤
OMG, This poor dog is breaking my heart. Thank God
for you, Rocky.
Awe poor baby she's just hiding herself in a corner so scared❤❤
Yes she is, she’s beautiful
Almost seems like “if I can’t see you, you can’t see me.” 💔
Sweet girl. ❤
For her to be so shut down like that is heartbreaking 🥺 That precious girl should be brimming with energy and love. I have faith though, she's gonna find her forever home 💖💖💖💖
I adopted a dog this scared. It took me a year and a half and now he is the most happy and unbothered❤
She looks almost identical to my husky - she's all white and this just breaks my heart how she's trying to crawl into that corner. Thank you for taking time to help her out.
Poor poor baby- she’s beautiful! Thank you all for helping her ❤️
She keeps moving her eyes as though she is aware of possible communication. She's beautiful.
She's scanning. Poor mite. xx
I live in the UK, I've always adopted rescues, my current dog is a retired racing greyhound. She's spoiled rotten now, and, she deserves it xxxccx
Same! 1 x saluki greyhound x (lurcher) and the other a 15yr old stubborn sod of a greyhound! 🤣
I would never have believed it was possible for a dog to be as shut down as poor Princess. I send every possible good wish to her from England.
Sad, someone must have really hurt that dog very bad. Thanks for helping her!
Yes some cruel human being hurt her ☹

She's really a beautiful dog. She deserves a great home
I'VE NEVER SEEN A DOG THAT WOULDN'T COME AROUND...
All it takes is gentle time and patience.
Agree
Why?????? Why do people treat dogs so badly that they end up like this? Thank you for helping her!
Because humans are capable of being the most violent/derrange/demented/evil creatures on the planet...more so than any other animal ever could be...but luckly there is the opposite as well.
Why why do people treat all of God's sentient beings like disposable garbage. That goes for all animals in my opinion.
@@angelahill3556 Because SOME people are bad. We're the only animals on the planet capable of metacognition and having principles. But if you grow up abused, or raised in an environment where no one else teaches or shows respect for animals or other people then you're probably going to be just like that.
@@Peaches-i2i I was raised by two narcissistic sociopaths and abused all my young life into my adult life until I stopped it. I never wanted to hurt animals all I wanted to do was help them because there were a lot like me. We have free will to do good or do bad people choose to do bad.
She is so pretty. People could learn from animals. They are kinder and have more empathy than many people.
This shutdown is horrible. Can't help to tear up. So painful to watch. Thank you, Rocky for all you do.
💔💔💔 Please give Princess so much love!
Oh my goodness, when she finally took the treat, my eyes flooded with happy tears! Princess is melting!
I am an elderly lady who is 72 yrs old. My husband is 74. We lost our small dog in February. I feel like i need a companion again but I fear that I might can't take care of it. But yet I feel the need to have one. I loved my little Buddy. He meant so much to me.
Maybe you could handle a small older dog? That would be a win/ win.
@@dianneradford3192 have you considered fostering??? There are so many dogs in rescues and shelters that need a loving temporary home and these organisations are begging for foster homes, plus they cover all the costs 💕🐾
Talk to the shelter. I have heard of some rescues that let seniors foster senior dogs and they take care of of vet costs and transporting Might have something loke that intour area
Could I recommend a cat? My old lady is 15, her health is going, and so is mine. So far, she’s great. Overweight, but happy and playing. Eating like the pot bellied pig she looks like. But she has cancer. I’ve decided against treatment. It’s not money. She is a dignified old lady, still loving toys and being a boss. I won’t cause, or allow that to change. When it’s time, I’ll do the right thing. I always wanted a solid grey cat. I’ve had a few, over the years. They died, before I could get them grown. My daughter has promised me a grey kitten, when sassy crosses the rainbow bridge. I also have a ferret. I DO NOT RECOMMEND A FERRET. I love her with an intensity that runs my life, but she is chaos in furry noodle form. I’m not being disloyal to my current critters, but, I need a critter to love, and a cat is peaceful.
I'd foster a senior dog if I were you. They need some love without a lot of the energy and training requirements that comes with pups.
I had a beautiful Husky named Zeus. Rescued him from a breeding farm & he had fleas & internal parasites. Went straight to the vet, got him healthy and he lived to 13. We had to say goodbye this past May due to old age and the pain due to his old age. During those years, we rescued a dozen cats from the streets and Zeus loved them all.
Since his passing, I've thought about rescuing another dog, but finding one that can live peacefully with all our cats has proved very difficult. So far, we haven't found that special dog. I wonder if Princess has had positive interactions with felines.
I'll be following her progress and praying for a beauty family to give her a new life with them. She's soooo precious and the Momma in me wants to wrap her in my arms, sing softly and shower her in kisses and cuddles.
Thanks Rocky for your beautiful heart. Your purpose is so important!
God Bless
Thank u for ur rescuing and looking for a puppers that likes cats. Zeus would want u to continue giving love to another puppers. ❤ Love is a terrible thing to waste. ❤❤
0:50 The tears have started already. Bless her heart, she looks so frightened. Somebody hurt her. I don’t know how anyone can hurt an animal.
Yes must have been werry bad fore her to act like this.
It's pure fear 😢
Because some people are purely evil and get their kicks from hurting creatures like this beautiful girl.
They will get their judgement and punishment in the end.
It's a cruel world we live in unfortunately.
She could just be acting that way because of being in a shelter 😢
Could be that she's absolutely grieving for her owners.
Not necessarily. Just being abandoned by her owners could cause a dog to shut down. She's terrified, doesn't know where she is or why her family left her.
There is a group, and I wish I knew where I had the information - if I find it I will post it - that actually used to, and I hope still does, setup soft music piping through intercoms on the walls for free - another shelter had TVs on the walls with either soft music or dog TV or such - and the difference it made for the animals was just night and day, absolutely amazing, the peace for the animals was palpable in each place that used these methods. Please, this is something that I can’t believe isn’t done everywhere. It really makes a difference with the animals to have soft music or viewing - or both! - for the precious animals to decompress by.
We rescued a 10 month old Husky that was found on the side of the 91 Freeway in Riverside, CA... you could count her ribs and she was beyond traumatized. She is 13 now and has been the most wonderful addition to our family and we feel we hit the Husky lottery when she chose us.
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Love it! Good for you!

@@JillDunham shd b more people like u because animals don't have a voice unless humans speak up for them. Thankyou for yr humanity.
Same we rescued a husky mix. He was 2 yo and you could see all his ribs and that was after the rescue put 10 lbs on him. He is the sweetest boy, he has some osteoarthritis issues as he's getting older because he had some fractures before he was rescued. I don't even want to imagine what he went through in those first 2 years. 😢❤
She is listening to you ..seeing eyes move and sort of glance your way just a little

Princess is really shut down. You have such patience with these frightened dogs and you have won her heart. She is so pretty. I hope she finds a really lovely home. Princess is going to make a wonderful companion to a lucky person.

She is such a beauty. Thx for your patience in helping her🥰
“You’ve gone through the hard part. Believe it or not the worst part is over.” That hit me so hard. Her first step to a new life.

I chose to go homeless to keep my dog. So glad I did. BTW I am disabled and elderly. I have taken on 4 dogs since the passing of my best friend. I believe he would be pleased with me because he used to take me to dogs that had been run over but we're alive. He saved a mother in the middle of a night where she was having babies in a football field. Yes sir! He was amazing.
Wonderful. Doggie Angel🐶😇
Bless you and your dog♥️
brings me to tears,,
How are you doing now? Could you get a new home? (Sorry for possible English mistakes, it's not my forst language)
Sending this baby love and healing. She's beautiful. Get well, sweetie 💙
Can't imagine what this poor animal has been through🥺I pray to God that a loving kind patient family finds this sweet angel real fast...
Have a dog that acts and looks a lot like this one. She's 12 now, still doesn't care much to be pet, doesn't show affection. But she likes to be close to us. Sometimes if they've been abused, that's all they have to give. We love Luna, and believe she loves us, she just doesn't know how to show it. We don't mind, she gives us the best of what she can, and we do the same. It's sad when they're this broken.
I love what you said here. Our adopted dog was not abused - she was 6 months old when we got her and now that she’s 2 years old - her whole world is tennis balls. She absolutely has no off button when it comes to throwing the tennis ball around in the back yard. She’s not shutdown by any means. I will say was hoping for a more affectionate dog but she’s not the most affectionate girl. However, just because a dog isn’t exactly what you want it to be, doesn’t mean that dog is a “throw away”. Just like people have their own personalities, so do dogs. That doesn’t make them any less in need of love or an outsider that people should get rid of. I accept her for who she is and love her all the same. ❤
@@tevssn I think that's wonderful! Just accept her as she is. So many won't take the time. We've had Luna since she was about 2 (the vet was guessing). On the way to work one day, I saw a man trying to chase her into a road busy with dump trumps working the area. The next time I saw her, he was in his yard beating her with large stick. She was very abused. I stopped to talk to him about her one day and he told me he was going to kill her, I offered him money that if he could get his hands on her (and don't hit her!) I'd be back and pay him. She's never had a hand raised to her since, other than out of love. Luna (Lulu) is our sweet, shy baby :)
Could she be in pain? From arthritis? Maybe get her a blood test? You are wonderful for allowing her to be her
Those eyes are mesmerizing. She’s so beautiful.
What a beautiful girl. It kills my heart seeing a dog this afraid. It should never be a thing for any animal. Im sorry baby girl. You are loved. I promise!
Rocky has a heart of an Angel for doing these extraordinary things for the voiceless, for being their voices.
Rocky, Thank you and.the people that you work with for all of the Animals that you share with with us.May God Bless you all for the love you have for Animals. Many Blessings to you all. Will always keep you all in our Prayers.
Yes. For sure! He's doing such excellent work that teaches us, I love watching him with these "puppers" 💯❤️😊✌️
I adopted a dog who came from an amish breeding situation. He was only 23 months old and did not know how to be a dog. They put him in an auction and a kind lady stepped in and bought him, had him neutered and than ask a rescue near me to find him a forever home. I've had him just a little over a month now and he has come so far. It brought my heart to see this beauty to be so shut down....she has so much love to give and the joy when she took that first treat....wow! Thank you so much for doing what you do. God bless you.
23 months just say 2yrs old..c'mon
Yeah, what's up with Amish Breeders in Pennsylvania? Not sure if the dog you're referring to was from PA. But, I had a short, weird experience with one, and now you brought up another Amish experience.
@@irritatedkitty7301Idk but there’s a rescue organization in NY that has posted on YT that rescued horses from situations where the horses weren’t treated well…they also came from Amish communities.
@@irritatedkitty7301 I have a neighbor who rescued an older dog from Amish breeders in PA. The dog apparently had never even been on grass before. Spent her whole life in a cage, and the second she got too old to breed they got rid of her.
I'm dissapointed to find out that this isn't an unusual situation in Amish country.
My heart goes out to you for helping all the poor babies.
She is absolutly beautiful. You are wonderful and I feel sometimes I am in therapy...
Her eyes are as white as her coat. She's beautiful! I hope she finds a loving family soon.
She has gorgeous eyes. I think she will be very loving and happy once she can be open to it. She's so sensitive
Poor baby! Trying to disappear into the corner/wall. Brings tears to my eyes. She’s breaking my heart. 😢
I know poor little baby
I can’t believe anyone would leave negative comments about what you’re doing Rocky! I am so in awe of what you guys do to help these animals whose spirit has been broken. As humans we can all understand what it’s like to feel abandoned or alone and you’re giving them such a gift, the gift of your love and understanding. Thank you for all you do🩷🩷🩷
I can't imagine abandoning your dog. I walked the streets of NY every day walking in and out of leasing offices until I found an affordable apartment that allowed dogs. I didn't have much money when I was younger and got my dog but I played with her with sticks and balls we found in the park. I shared my food with her, just plain veggies rice and some chicken. I spent hours training her after reading books and watching videos on how to train your dog. Dogs can be expensive if you buy them everything, but even if you don't have much you can still give them enough. No matter what I went through she was there by my side. My friends watched her for me when I needed it. I wish people understood how much responsibility a dog is, and I wish no dog ever was abused or neglected ever again.
I mean I do think it's fine to give away your pet as if you can't care for it. In fact you should. You just need give it away to appropriate place.
Puse traductor, es un usted una persona que aprecia la y respeta mucho la naturaleza, me alegra de esto. Hay demasiada maldad con los animales de este planeta en especial los domesticos que están muy cerca de nosotros. Parece que ellos cargan nuestras calamidades y nuestras culpas 😔🫂🐶

@@yaditas3826 I would never givey dog away. I always have had a rescue dog. The one I have now is a saluki lurcher cross. She was used as a bait dog. She was very anxious when we got her. Now after two years she is the most loving and loyal friend. She is so bonded with my two grandchildren and watches them when they are out in the front of the house and doesn't settle till they come home. If they are next door for two long she lets herself out and into nextdoor to get them to come home. Never would I have thought that the broken animal I took in would change into this wonderful friend.
@@yaditas3826 Yo estoy totalmente de acuerdo con Ud. Es una desgracia que nosotros hacen tanto terrible dano a
criaturas dulces e inocentes, quien Dios nos dio como regalo. Muchos no los aprecian y los maltratan. Necesitamos despertar de est mentalidad miserable, y comprender que ESTOS ANIMALITOS TIENEN TAN BUEN CORAZON, SON MUY SENSITIVOS E INTELIGENTES. Por favor, antes de adoptar a un animal, piense que es un enorme regalo, y tambien
requiere mucha responsabilidad. No son un par de chanclas que uno puede cambiar o tirar a la basura. Son seres
tan inocentes quienes nos dan su amor y lealdad totalmente. Ojala que habra mas excelentes seres humanos como
Ud. y como Rocky, quienes donan tiempo y les ayudan despasito a poder tener fe en la humanidad otra vez. Yo les
deseo a todos la perfecta persona con quienes tendran una ideal comunicacion y estaran juntos, felizes, para el
resto de sus vidas. Cuando los veo sufrir, yo me enfermo tambien. Pero es necesario a luchar por ellos en cada
manera que podemos. Yo he tenido un gran perro, hermoso, blanco Aleman, und joya de un alma, y 7 gatitos, uno
tras otro, hasta tener tres por on rato. Perdi el ultimo hace casi 5 anos, y mi corazon aun duele. Ame a cada uno,
y todos tenian diferentes personalidades adorables. Ahora estan con Dios y les doy las gracias para haber traido tanto amor a mi vida!

All animals I've owned were rescues. Dogs, cats, horses, and pygmy goats. I'm certified in massage therapy for animals (dogs and horses specifically). All had been abused, some for years. I used massage work to gain trust and help them understand "hands don't have to hurt".. The 180° they made in behavior was so amazing it still makes me cry when I talk about it today. My present kitty just turned 16. He gets a massage daily since the day I brought him home. ❤
How about a mule? Have you ever brought a mule around to trusting you? Asking for a friend..... 😢
I give my dogs massages daily and they look forward to them!
Huskys are emotionally very fragile. It is said that dogs are like 3 year olds but with Huskys it is more like a 2 year old. They have an amazing capacity and need for love ... more than any dog I have ever owned and I'm old. This Husky had gotten to the point in its life when it knew it was loved and returned that love. That is why she is so crushed because losing the owner she loves and she knew loved her is devastating to such a soul. Her story, what we can make of it is very sad. Huskys who do not act like this in shelter do so because their owners didn't genuinely love them and so they had not loved the owner. Huskys often behave detached. This increases if they have no attachment to their owner. They are just owner. The last Husky I rescued was so feral when I got her all the neighbors were afraid of her. It took a lot of time and patience but a year later she is the sweetest girl you'll ever meet and she obeys me ... most of the time (she's still a Husky). She has never had any training of any kind (she can sit) but she is sweet because she knows she is safe and obedient because she loves and is loved. Very few people truly understands these dogs. For an initial meeting you did everything right. They love the sound of a human voice. It calms them. It doesn't matter what you say.
They won't submit to just anyone. Strong, beautiful, emotional dogs.
Rocky you deserve a huge hug.
@@kirstenbrogan5958 He was right to put her in his lap. She would have never done that on her own.
If America or California have awards for good deeds, Rocky should be nominated. So if there is, many of us would cheer if someone from California would enter this wonderful caring and clearly loving human.
Rocky you are a star. What you do MATTERS. ❤️💖💟💫🐕🐕🦺🦮🇦🇺
I think she is a white german shepherd not a husky like Rocky posted
The state of Princess during the first 25 minutes of this video LITERALLY has me bawling! 😭😭. It breaks my heart to see a beautiful creature so dead inside, most likely from LACK OF LOVE & COMPANIONSHIP! 😢
THANK YOU for choosing to work with Princess and giving her the WILL TO WANT TO LIVE. ❤❤
Poor baby. I cried when i saw her push into the corner as far as she could go. So sad!!
❤ I hope she’s adopted by the kindest young human ever 🙏🏻
That poor, precious dog. God knows what happened to her before is heart wrenching!
I trained dogs for 20 + years. This made me so sad. Great work. I am so despondent about humans who can make this happen.
If you’ve been broken from life you understand what these dogs have been through. I empathize with these dogs. If I could I would adopt everyone. The Asher house does that. But, I am 68 years old, have had 2 new hips, a new back, now I am battling cancer. But, it makes my heart happy to see you doing this!
You seem like a wonderful, compassionate woman, Judy. I hope the cancer can be successfully treated so you can enjoy life with your "new" hips and back...and maybe a cat, dog or small animal (a pair of rabbits, guinea pigs). Take good care.
@@judydavis2944 I pray for your recovery.
Oh, my goodness i dont think ive ever seen a dog more scared on this channel 😢 poor little Princess...
36:41 I think explaining how a fear response presents itself in dogs is important to both old and new viewers. It's a good reminder for those of us who have watched your videos, and it's great education for people who might really love dogs but don't really understand them.
Oh my God,tears flowing intensley for her!!!😢🥺😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🐕🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The beginning of this video brought me to tears. I've never seen a dog SO shutdown. Poor baby!!! The things some animals endure is heartbreaking. So grateful for kind-hearted people willing to take time with them and/or offer them a loving home.
The poor baby looks so sad. I'm glad you could help her come out of her trauma.
I have never seen a dog more shut down as Princess was during the first half of this video. Some of these dogs truly need more time with you than other dogs.
She is such a gorgeous girl. Her eyes are amazingly beautiful and almost look like 2 small circles of light. Now she needs a really good brushing, a good bath, more time with you, some training and a very loving home who will love her for the rest of her life… never giving up on her.
I'll take her. I had a husky who passed from old age years ago. My daughter has a beautiful husky now. We love them. Great dogs. I'm in KY if you can get her to me. It's just hubby and I, so we have lots of time, space, and love to give her.
Poor Baby. This is just heartbreaking to watch😔 🙏🙏🙏Thank you.. Rocky🙏Blessing’s
This poor puppy😮😢Seriously- this just broke my heart open. -I’ve been locked up for so long and watching this video reminded me of me and how I felt. Thank you so much for what you do !!I think I need a dog- I’m seriously crying --I’m a grown ___woman--
It was heartbreaking to see this girl pressing her head to the wall! I admire that you have the courage to touch a dog in this frozen state. This time you seemed to have a "hopeless case" - but in your lap she came a bit out of her shell...
Because of watching Rocky’s video, we have adopted a 2 year old Alaskan Husky crossed with a Shepherd. She is so amazing, we are working through her trauma, but oh my word, we just love her. She loves our grandchildren and our cats! As well as other dogs! She is an answer to my anxiety! She is so beautiful and loving!
A year ago I adopted almost the same dog. White Shepherd/Husky mix. It was like having Helen Keller. Intense fear and lack of socialization. First 6 months were intense--play is the answer. My guy is the most gentle, kind dog, but once out of his shell there is so much joy and energy. We got him another dog to help with confidence. Confidence is the opposite of fear. Thanks for helping Princess, She will be amazing!

This is So Heartbreaking 💔
Please God , 🙏 Give this Beautiful fur baby a Loving home to live .
Aww poor girl she is so scared. Thank you Rocky for helping her and all these precious animals. ❤️
I love the way you talk to her directly and give her positive affirmations 🥰❤️
The lovely darling just came to life. She is classy, gentle and gorgeous. She deserves the best of everything and complete security, safety, happiness and understanding always.
I went over to a local shelter a few days ago and loved on them. They were all so friendly, I was kind of surprised. I can’t take any home with me, but I’m going to go over and volunteer as I’m able. There was a husky that was my favorite. She was adopted yesterday to live on a farm. I was so happy for her.
Isn't she gorgeous! Best of luck for her recovery. I love kind people like you.
Rocky, please do another video on Princess. I wanna know how she's doing now. She is such a BEAUTIFUL dog. You owe your subscribers another video about Princess........ PLEASE!!!!!!!!????😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Have you heard anything about Princess?
I feel so sad for this girl. Thank you for helping her
The explanations are very necessary and I thank you for helping her and the rest. You do an amazing job. I pray though that you also make sure to do extensive background and home checks and visits before placing again. Otherwise it’s a crapshoot and you’re risking the animals to be placed into absolutely horrific situations with people who are good actors but evil inside. I have heartwrenchingly seen this too many times. Just as you would with a baby, a child, you would not just place them without extensive research. As such, these animals are trusting you, so please do not betray that trust, but do everything possible to place properly into a good and loving caring forever home. God bless precious Husky and you all for going the extra distance to do right by these precious souls.
