    It was kind of amazing that this old, huge dog was able to live a relatively healthy and happy life all by herself. I mean, she did not look like a broken dog at all. Just old. Some dogs just have that survival instinct and personality to make due. She must have an amazing personality.

      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.

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?

      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."💗🙏💗

    I don't understand how someone can be obsessed for 3 YEARS waking up crying, if she hadn't seen the dog the day before climbing thru the canyon etc. etc. and then adopt her out the minute she's caught. Makes no sense to me. The woman has invested, time, energy, money and Love....wouldn't she have been the best home for the dog?

    • @victorysaber1608
      @victorysaber1608 5 лет назад +47

      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.

      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.

      After three years it is likely not puppies but I do feel she was sharing the food with other dogs (maybe her children). Many people say if that was the case they would have seen the others with her. But that may not be the case. she seems to have at some point been a pet. the dogs she is sharing with may not have been. Mix her being a pet in the past so confort with humans and her large size maybe she was the only one brave enough to get close to humans to be seen (at least in that area). And if the dogs she was sharing with were her puppies 9by the end adult dogs themselves) she may have been keeping them away from people on poprose and taking the risk herself for extra food for them.

      @Mycel She may not have had puppies but she may still have been sharing her food with other dogs that are not as comfortable around people. As you point out everything points to her being a pet at some point. If the other dogs she was with never were or had been very badly treated they may not be willing to go near humans at all whereas she was. And if say the lady saw her there when she was out looking for food separate from the others once the others knew about humans being there they may avoid that area which is why the lady didn't see her with them.

    These two wonderful people went above and beyond to help this abandoned n feral dog "3yrs" of love, patience and determination and they did it. Now she has a loving home and never has to struggle to survive again. Inspiring.

      Maybe bc of some circumstances? Maybe she did wanted and love that dog but when the moment that guy finally catches the dog he fell in love with it so the woman just decided to give it to him since she already had a dog. The guy has the full capabilities of taking care of the dog anyway.

    I wonder if she lived somewhere close and they let her run in the canyon, that would explain why her lair was never found and sometimes she wouldn’t show up for feeding. After all, she looks pretty healthy for a stray!

      I wondered that too, but it's unlikely she had pups for the whole duration (3 years). Also, once grown enough, I can imagine some would have tried following her and would have been seen.
