Update: Dale got his fence and Buddy is free to go outside any time he wants. Buddy also has a new friend to play with. He and a squirrel have become besties! I've never seen anything like it.
Rebar through the lungs, an arm ripped off and the other mangled and broken, 7 cracked ribs and a head injury and paralysis. He's been through it. He deserved these gifts. God bless the Secret Santa
SS hits a home run again…along with his/her channel 5 news team with the perfect gifts. Wow, fence for Buddy & automated bed for a man that is a truly deserving of it, after 25 years in a wheelchair, thru no fault of his own. Bless him & his sweet but rambunctious doggie. May they have ever after happiness together.
Who would thumbs down this video?? The joy and greatfulness that this man showed for a fence and a bed brought tears to my eyes. I would bless him with more, if I could.
yes very much... many more Secret Santa's like the one's in East Idaho are needed to spread Christmas cheer and goodness.. bless you secret Santa and EIN...
I have always been of the opinion that animals give us more love, companionship and caring that most people. Animals can always tell if you are a good person and truly love them and respond in kind. The dogs LITERALLY saved this mans life.
I do believe pets extend a human's life, there were times in my life where my dogs became the greatest blessings and saved me from being alone..... Dale and Buddy deserve each other, it's great to see Secret Santa help these two out. 🎅🎄🦌🎁💝🐕🐾🕯️🙏✝️🕊️
I was depressed, and on the verge of suicide. I decided to go to a Shuffleboard tournament, and see friends I hadn't seen in years. The day I got there, this female pit mix showed up, and no one knew who's it was. The next day I took her to the vet, and she had no chip. That dog stuck on me like glue, for the next 4 days. Including finding me, or following me to my tent the first night. When I woke up in the middle of the night, she was curled up behind my head. None the less, I took her home. And she's been the best thing to happen to me. I had a purpose to live, from that moment on. I now am engaged to be married, and just started a new job, which I needed more than anything. My dog saved my life, and I dread the day I have to put her down. But until then, we're both going to have the best life possible. I hope you all do too
@@alexandersupertramp7353 That's a great story Alexander, it looks like you and your dog saved each other, my dogs are my everything and they live like rock stars and get royalty treatment....... I have taken my dogs around the world with me on various trips, and they always seem to bring out smiles from strangers who meet them.
There has been studies that have proven pets extend life. Dogs typically make people more active and lowers things like blood pressure. Pretty cool stuff.
My Dad was paralyzed this year from a car accident. So now I am familiar with the struggle paralyzed people go through. This is so nice.....made me cry. The secret Santa is an angel in disguise. Merry Christmas.
Oh Melissa, so sorry. My grandfather was paralyzed for many years before his death. I actually took care of him for awhile myself and it's rewarding but not to be taken lightly
Reporter: “How have you been able to keep your head up all these years?” Dale: “My dog.” I can relate, Dale, more than you could ever know! My husband of 20 years died last February, and since then I’ve had to stop rescuing, which was the only thing that gave me purpose after I was injured in a near fatal car accident back in 2002, which forced me to stop working in my career that I loved. Since my husband died I’ve also lost several of my kitties and one of my dogs. The *only thing* that keep me going is my other fur babies. When I feel like giving up I take one look at their little faces and I know I couldn’t leave them. 🎄 *M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S* ☃️ to Dale and Buddy, the news team, to secret Santa, and to whoever reads this! 🎅🏻
I'm so sorry for all your losses. I believe God put animals on this Earth with us to do exactly what your fur babies are doing. They give us unconditional love, unlimited laughter, and a reason to keep living when we get down. Also, if you're not able to do rescues anymore, have you considered fostering? You seem to have an awful lot of love to give and there are many animals that can benefit from it.
ILive2Rescue ~ Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Rotorua, North Island, New Zealand. Sorry for your loss. Kind Regards, Alistair Bentley. Rotorua, North Island, New Zealand. (9:30am Christmas Day)
Im sorry about all your loses. Thank you for all you do and for being strong for your fur babies. You are loved and needed in this world. Hang on, friend. The light in this world exists thanks to kind and compassionate people like you. Merry Christmas.
I'd help the people and animals all over the world if I were so blessed. We were a homeless disabled 71 female along with my mentally ill daughter age 50. We were gifted by God to receive a voucher for a home and this week have just started to moved into it. We live on my Social security and we are prayerfully waiting on the results for my daughter's disability approval. We are so grateful of our new place to live instead of a beat up old car. It's our Christmas present 2019. And everyone out there: be careful of your close family who are adult exploitationers, con artists and selfish that's almost a narcissist like Trump. They do NOT care what happens to you. We've lost everything and almost our lives. We used to be a big 501(C)(3) non-profit organization - animal rescuers. God bless you and may you all be protected from people like this. Merry Christmas 2019 and more.🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💞💞💛💙💜💚🐾🐾😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
animals are love and happiness fuck is your problem? Why does trump have to come up at all in that incoherent speech? Jesus man everything wrong with the world is blamed on trump
The way his voice shook when he said that he tried to build the fence and couldnt get it done it broke my heart. This man really cares about his pups and treats them well. He wants his dog to be able to go out and have a good time without getting in trouble and it really bugged him that he couldnt get the fence done despite being paralyzed he felt disappointed. What a sweet man.
Omg He got so excited for his dog fence. What a humble guy who cares so much about his dog before himself. He seems like a nice guy who deserves all the best
There are people here who have donated time and some materials but more materials are needed. All lots in our neighborhood are 1/2 acre or more so that's a lot of fence. We all care about Dale. We all loved Sprout and know how heartbroken Dale was when he had Sprout put down. And we all want Buddy to do well.
@@cindyhurzeler3885 Thank you for letting us know there are still people who care about their neighbors. Most people these days don't even know their neighbors' names. Bless you.
Merry Christmas to you and your family also. This is a sad Christmas for me. I lost my mom in January. Mom may you enjoy your first Christmas in heaven.😭😭😭😭💜💛🇨🇦🌟😇
Don’t underestimate what you can do. Start small, little things can mean so much and not only is it good for the person we help and for us, it can help heal the world!
If you can afford to buy mascara and hair dye, you can afford to give a struggling family $100 to the grocery store. You have the money, you choose to spend it unwisely on material things instead of spending some of it in yourself and some of it on complete strangers. How hard is it to buy $5 worth of canned goods or a bag of cat\dog food to donate to the food bank? Not that hard. 😒

My name is Tuan, living more than 8000 miles from the USA. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Dale. God bless you. God bless the United States of America.
It's me again. Mr. Tuan. I am living in Vietnam, more than 8000 miles from the USA. My father served US Marine in Vietnam war. My younger brother served in the US air force in the Gulf War. And I have been working with the US Immigration Law for most of my life. I read US newspapers, listen to broadcasts of US news agencies, watched Hollywood movies, enjoying American country songs and blues music. I think, write the language of America. I made 2 visits to the USA, travelling along the west coast from San Diego all the way to Portland and Las Vegas.. I met good and friendly American people, from bus driver in SF to homeless in LA, cab driver in Portland. I saw the sun rising and setting and I saw full moon in the American continent. I saw the vastness of Death Valley. You are living in a great country of the United States of America, Dale. You have kind neighbors and good- hearted Secret Santa. Enjoy your life, Dale. I wish I could have a chance to live the rest of my life and die in the United States of America. I love your country, United States of America. God bless you all. God, please give me a chance. Thank you.

Man seeing an older man like that cry makes my eyes water everyday because I know it's not easy for us men to show emotion and be vulnerable in front of a stranger. Good for him and his puppy.
Oh my God each secret Santa gets better and better. I’m so happy for this man that they helped him. I hope there’s room for buddy in that new bed. Thank you secret Santa you’re amazing.❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
This made me cry. I’ve been dealing with extreme pain for the last 10 years from 5 brain surgeries I’ve had to remove a brain tumor and it’s ruined my life so this hit close to home, I also have a dog who helps keep my head up. I hope that these gifts you guys gave him help him and make him happy! God bless you guys! Merry Christmas!
God Bless you and Merry Christmas. I have depression and my Yorkie helps me too to get threw. Hope you have a beautiful Christmas and many more. Take care.🎁🎀🎄
I know EXACTLY what he meant when he said a good dog was how he kept his head up for 25 years. I Had a beautiful brown and white mix breed friend who was as loyal as anyone could ever dream of. She didn't make it to 8th birthday, which would have been in Feb 2020. I took her in off the street wen she was just a pup, and she took me into her heart as well. She helped me, picked me up when I was depressed, and down and out. She was everything for me. The apartment complex where I live has changed their rules, and now I can't get a dog. It has to be a "Certified service animal" I have no income so I can't afford that. So yeah, I know EXACTLY what he's talking about.
This is a tear jerker! Bless this dear man’s precious heart & his dog. ❤🙏🏻 Thanks a million secret santa for making the deliverance of these miracles possible.
What a good man!! I hope he's reading the comments. I just saw this video in 2025 and I want to say your strength is amazing. You have a good heart. ❤. And keep loving and leaning on your pup. I have a ton of medical issues, chronic disabilities, pain conditions, and I just survived breast cancer at 41. The most helpful has been friends and family AND my 2 loving dogs who are always there! ❤❤❤❤❤ My only motto I live by in life is never give up. ❤
I am SOOO sorry that happened to you. Trying to imagine becoming paralyzed at 40 shatters me in a way I'll never understand. The feeling of despair must have been overwhelming. I'm so so so so sorry
Our dad was a welder and got ALS. He was in a wheelchair for many years before he passed. Gifts like these from kind, caring people mean more than you could ever imagine unless you or someone you love has been through something similar. I love videos like this!! ❤ And I love how this man said having a dog is how he keeps his head up. Our dad loved our dog with all his heart. Dogs are the best. Kindness is the best. Merry Christmas & happy holidays to everyone!
GIVING is the key to help no matter what it is with...it could be help around the house,help on a car,all kinds of help is all u need to do for someone who needs it...if u have what it takes trust me when i tell u this, u will feel like a much better person in society, the reason i know is because i am always helping someone and i dont have a bunch of money or fancy stuff but i can share my muscles and help with what i have and u can too-..this is probably why the man upstairs has me feeling happy with full of life
Thank you to all who helped my grandpa this is him he's a strong guy even though he's in a wheelchair he's strong thank you to all god bless you made his year hugs to all
But also realize that when someone is going through one of the worst times in their lives, it's the worst thing they've dealt with. Someone else out there is going through a lot worse but we shouldn't put people down when they are struggle with something that doesn't seem that bad to someone else.
Of course there are people worse off than ourselves, that doesn’t mean what each of us is going through is automatically invalid. Staying humble whilst acknowledging another persons battle can be done equally, we are all important. Yes I understand what you were trying to convey but it’s not about feeling “sorry” for yourself. As I said, everyone is valid in their thoughts and feelings, it’s not at all a competition. Have a Merry Christmas 🎄
Wow - this is so genuine and life changing. Whoever is the secret Santa and whoever finds these deserving people should be blessed. Making a difference does not necessarily need to mean a large gift, acknowledging someone's circumstances and helping when possible might be the difference for someone in need. I needed to see this to remind myself that truth.
Praise the lord thank you to all who made this possible. This man n dog will have much more comfort n happiness in their life. Thank you lord in JESUS name we GIVE THANKS. AMEN.
Update:
Dale got his fence and Buddy is free to go outside any time he wants. Buddy also has a new friend to play with. He and a squirrel have become besties! I've never seen anything like it.

Crying because he has money to get a fence 💔 it’s the little things that are the most important x x
ik this was 2 months ago, so a while, but if you look in the description, he gets $500,000. a little bit more than "just a fence" :D
Ryan the description says they gave $500,000 to families, not just this one man. He did not get $500,000.
And we complain about little setbacks, trifling annoyances.. .Love and strength to you, my brother
Secret Santa changes lives forever and doesn't seek recognition. THAT is true LOVE.

I’ve been dealing with extreme pain for the last 10 years from 5 brain surgeries I’ve had to remove a brain tumor and it’s ruined my life so this hit close to home, I also have a dog who helps keep my head up. I hope that these gifts you guys gave him help him and make him happy! God bless you guys! Merry Christmas!
God Bless you and Merry Christmas. I have depression and my Yorkie helps me too to get threw. Hope you have a beautiful Christmas and many more. Take care.🎁🎀🎄
Hang in there my man and God Bless! Happy New Year!
Jesus man. Im sorry to hear that. People take for granted how good they have it. Stay strong man.
I know EXACTLY what he meant when he said a good dog was how he kept his head up for 25 years. I Had a beautiful brown and white mix breed friend who was as loyal as anyone could ever dream of. She didn't make it to 8th birthday, which would have been in Feb 2020. I took her in off the street wen she was just a pup, and she took me into her heart as well.
She helped me, picked me up when I was depressed, and down and out. She was everything for me.
The apartment complex where I live has changed their rules, and now I can't get a dog. It has to be a "Certified service animal" I have no income so I can't afford that.
So yeah, I know EXACTLY what he's talking about.
The power of dogs. Such beautiful gifts from GOD. 🙏🙏🙏
Dogs heal everything. Merry Xmas to him and Buddy from Australia.
Jennifer Williams so very true. Happy Christmas from the UK too.
im from Australia too
Merry Christmas to you all from America!
God is Good!
Yeah god is great! Glad he put him in a wheelchair and got him a bed.
Mashallah
God is so good that he paid to build this man a fence for his dog.
❤❤❤
Dog is good,
This is a tear jerker! Bless this dear man’s precious heart & his dog. ❤🙏🏻 Thanks a million secret santa for making the deliverance of these miracles possible.
What a good man!! I hope he's reading the comments. I just saw this video in 2025 and I want to say your strength is amazing. You have a good heart. ❤. And keep loving and leaning on your pup. I have a ton of medical issues, chronic disabilities, pain conditions, and I just survived breast cancer at 41. The most helpful has been friends and family AND my 2 loving dogs who are always there! ❤❤❤❤❤ My only motto I live by in life is never give up. ❤
Dale l have cried with your story from the beginning of What Secret Santa did for you and Buddy.
3:08
We’re all crying, right?
"welding tanks" he said. I'm a welder myself and my heart goes out to hard working men like this. May the Lord above bless him. Thank you secret santa
That's what life is all about helping others
I am SOOO sorry that happened to you. Trying to imagine becoming paralyzed at 40 shatters me in a way I'll never understand. The feeling of despair must have been overwhelming. I'm so so so so sorry
This is the real America that I use to know. Thanks for returning it.
Bless you all
Cried happy tears for the gentleman who received these blessings. May God bless the person(s) who helped this man.
Our dad was a welder and got ALS. He was in a wheelchair for many years before he passed. Gifts like these from kind, caring people mean more than you could ever imagine unless you or someone you love has been through something similar.
I love videos like this!! ❤
And I love how this man said having a dog is how he keeps his head up.
Our dad loved our dog with all his heart.
Dogs are the best.
Kindness is the best.
Merry Christmas & happy holidays to everyone!
❤️🙏❤️
Such a deserving man. Made his life simpler. Merry Christmas ho ho ho
God bless that man and the good folks that helped him. And yes, dogs are simply God's love wrapped in warm fur. Merry Christmas to all.
GIVING is the key to help no matter what it is with...it could be help around the house,help on a car,all kinds of help is all u need to do for someone who needs it...if u have what it takes trust me when i tell u this, u will feel like a much better person in society, the reason i know is because i am always helping someone and i dont have a bunch of money or fancy stuff but i can share my muscles and help with what i have and u can too-..this is probably why the man upstairs has me feeling happy with full of life
I hope Dale and Buddy are doing well!
all the dislikes on this video comes from some sad souls who can't feel nothing even when humanity is trying its best to help others.
That's EXACTLY why we need people with kind hearts...
Potatoe farm give one good reason why this video deserves a dislike from anyone
„I appreciate the hell out of it“
That man‘s a legend! 😂♥️
Wow he went through a lot and injuries were horrific, thank you secret Santa for all that you do. ❤
These are the best videos! God bless Secret Santa and his generosity and kindness.
Who's the heartless person who put a thumbs down?
me
It seems some fool goes around and does it on all of them. Sad lives, feel sorry for them not angry.
@@molester5917 haha. Don't worry, someone will like you someday. Just believe.
@@myleneh1916 i can't imagine that life. Must live in a box with WiFi.
Their eyes were probably sweating too much and couldn't see that they were pressing the thumbs down.
Thank you to all who helped my grandpa this is him he's a strong guy even though he's in a wheelchair he's strong thank you to all god bless you made his year hugs to all
This is a two tissue episode! Dale was a hard worker and now is life is more difficlt. Thank you EIN for blessing him with the gifts!!
MONEY WELL SPENT! HELPING HUMANS
Who ever his Secret Santa was is amazing growing up my parents told me the ones that care the most remain anonymous
Aww. Man, I’m just bawling. He’s so sweet. I hope he and Buddy have a long, happy life together. ♥️
19 people hit the thumbs dumb accidentally from all the tears in their eyes
He seemed a little rough around the edges at first, but when he heard "fence" and "new bed", that was it for him and me both! God bless 🙏💖
This is the kind of thing I want to see us doing and be a part of. This is what Christmas should be to everyone, and every other day of the year too.
Honestly I don't think people realize that just cause someone has a home in the suburbs doesn't mean they don't struggle. This was very cute
From j in Scotland so glad for him and his dog x
thanks God there is a people like them❤❤❤
god bless u all😇😇😇
Dog*** bless
@@StacyLopez 🙏😊
omg Someone's cutting onions. That was beautiful. Buddy will make his life so much happier.
My eyes are just sweating
Thank you Secret Santa! You are doing God's work! Thank you for helping this man!
My heart ❤🥹🥹
Wow this Secret Santa guy is a legend.
These stories make me cry happy tears. There are good people in this crazy world. Thanks for sharing.
If you start felling sorry for your self, remember there are people worse off than you
AAA Yourself*
But also realize that when someone is going through one of the worst times in their lives, it's the worst thing they've dealt with. Someone else out there is going through a lot worse but we shouldn't put people down when they are struggle with something that doesn't seem that bad to someone else.
Of course there are people worse off than ourselves, that doesn’t mean what each of us is going through is automatically invalid.
Staying humble whilst acknowledging another persons battle can be done equally, we are all important.
Yes I understand what you were trying to convey but it’s not about feeling “sorry” for yourself. As I said, everyone is valid in their thoughts and feelings, it’s not at all a competition.
Have a Merry Christmas 🎄
AAA very true
We don't grade our pain on a curve established by everyone's pain.
Thx just amazing
God bless you.
That man was so brought to tears with gratefulness to get a fence and a bed. 😭
How much more appreciative could each of us be for everything we have?✨
🐶🎄❤️when he said “I got a dog 🐕 “
My heart ❤️ just melted. Life is better with a dog 🐶
Wow - this is so genuine and life changing. Whoever is the secret Santa and whoever finds these deserving people should be blessed. Making a difference does not necessarily need to mean a large gift, acknowledging someone's circumstances and helping when possible might be the difference for someone in need. I needed to see this to remind myself that truth.
God bless you sir❤😊Have a blessed Christmas 🎄
Praise the lord thank you to all who made this possible. This man n dog will have much more comfort n happiness in their life. Thank you lord in JESUS name we GIVE THANKS. AMEN.
Secret Santa, whoever you are, thank you for restoring my faith in humanity. And thank you for helping all these wonderful people.
💕 Dale and Buddy.... secret Santa loves fur babies too 💕
Who's cutting onions? Damn my eyes. I love these people who do this. Amazing.
He is a beautiful man who is not afraid to show his emotions.💜 God Bless him.
That guy hit the nail on the head. A good dog is one of the greatest gifts from god.
