Your contribution goes to help dogs like her and allows me to run these early release videos for members ad free. Enjoy and appreciate you ❤🤙
We really appreciate these videos, no matter how short they are
I love what you're doing Rocky. You're a compassionate man.
Rocky, what kind of treats are they? Ingredients? I don't have a dog, although I've always wanted one. I have a cat and I know that cats are obligate carnivores. So, do your treats contain only meat? I've been looking for something with no vegetables! None whatsoever. And food too, not just treats. I also know that cats need more protein than dogs. So I know I wouldn't give my cat dog food. 😆
Never mind. I saw the ingredients. 🥺
Oh Jenny, sweet girl! You've come so far already! We love you! So happy you are more comfortable now!
Dog looks like a purebred solid liver color german shorthaired pointer with natural (undocked tail). Not a lab. I know-- I've had GSPs and English pointers for 20+ years. Pointers tend to shut down in shelter situations. I used to volunteer for pointer rescue.
I've seen others comment about Rocky's positive affirmations. I'm 60 years old father of three. Reasonably "tough". When he apologizes to the dogs for what they've been through, tells them they are good and loved, and worthy. Promises to keep them safe, I hear him saying it to every animal and every person who needs and deserves it. Brings me to tears, every time. Thank you Rocky. Rocky Kanaka 2024
You are the best 60 yr old dad who cares with love and compassion. You have my best of wishes.

In today's world of cruel people its a joy to listen to Rocky talk to these lovely dogs. ♥
Precious Brown Sweet Baby ..
Rocky for President!!
We are in crisis mode over here on Maui. Our shelter is beyond capacity. The fires have been a catalyst for abandoned dogs and cats. We are in need of foster homes or for the visitors who are willing to take them to the mainland for adoption. People need homes to live in and most homes are not pet friendly.
If anyone is coming to Maui and are looking for a dog to adopt, it’s a win win for us and for the dogs.
Thank you for listening.
I have a message to people landlords you rent to people of the fires. You should allow the pets free into the rental . Healing is important for the victims of all varieties.
Why hasn't Humane Society or Peta help with connection to the mainland for flight and facility to adoption?
@@journeybrook9357 Hawaii and Alaska are forgotten by the mainland. The only time they know anything is when some disaster occurs.
We’ve reached out to those foundations and no answer. PETA kills more animals than they find homes for. The American Humane Society is almost as bad. We are contacting individual animal shelters to ask for help n. Then we have volunteers who are visiting the islands if they would accompany them to the destination. Sometimes an airline will donate a space on the plane for transport.
We also have volunteers who are on vacation check out a dog and take them to the beach to run. It gives them a chance to get out of the small space they are in.
If anyone is coming to the island of Maui, please take a dog to the beach for an hour or so. Anything helps.
Thank you.
@@journeybrook9357 Very good question.
@@journeybrook9357 it cost lots of moneys for planes transport animals and many shelters have limit space.
I doubt that this pup should be returned to her original owners, even if they could be found. She has obviously suffered abuse. I hope she finds her forever home with the loving family she deserves.
I'm 74. I lost my sweet Rusty when I was 19. I still occasionally cry for my loss. He is waiting for me. I can't wait to see him again.
❤ YES! YOU WILL SEE YOUR BELOVED PET AGAIN! ❤
Yes, Rusty is waiting for you! There’s a joyous reunion in your future, when it’s the proper time. ❤❤❤
Rusty is waiting for you. I had a Yorkie mix for 19 years. He went everywhere with me. I think I’m going get another dog. Lion will understand and there are SO many dogs that need homes.
I’m also 74 and I know my pets will be waiting for me too ❤❤
It is so hard to live without my soul dog. I cry every day.
Humans that care for animals as much as he does, are the best kind of human
Seeing a friendly breed looking so terrified is deeply tragic.
Very tragic.... Poor baby girl 😢
Yeah. However I think the happiness will return - you can see a little sparkle in Jenny's eyes
Valentine a.k.a Jenny … is a sweet beautiful chocobrown pup ❤. I pray she would get adopted in no time and and live happily ever after with her forever family. No more living in dumpster or sewer ever again. Thanks Rocky from bringing her out from despair 🙏🏼
Everyone needs a Jenny in their life even if she's a little stinky. ❤
I just read a study that found sitting with a dog for even 15 minutes will significantly reduce their stress.
And the owners too, I'm sure.
Wonder how much positive effect it has on the humans, too.
That precious dog was so capsulated in fear she was just frozen. I saw an immediate release when you held her in your lap. Those little ears finally perked up when you told her she was a good girl. She’s BEAUTIFUL, stinky or not. Jenny, I LOVE IT! ❤ Thank you Rocky for loving these little dog, you’re a blessing to them. Mel is a wonderful caregiver to these dogs. I pray she finds a loving forever home SOON.
Thank you and appreciate you being a member!
Jenny is perfect... and everyone LOVES a box of chocolates & the movie 'Forrest Gump'
The whole Kanaka family are amazingly loving souls ❤ Every pup you touch is very fortunate!!!
My black lab weighed between 40 and 45# when she was full grown.
@@rockykanaka Precious puppy and God bless you for helping her. 💖💞💖
PS Jenny! Perfect!!
When Rocky does the positive affermation with these pups, I sob like a baby.
So do I!!
I lost my dearest girl four months ago and I also carry her dog tag on my keys. I'm crying like a baby already! I was already worried for the mini labrador! and now it's worse!! Bless you
I adopted a chocolate lab in 2015. She ( Lucy) had been in a puppy mill. Lucy is now 18 and half yrs. Her health is beginning to have issues, but she is so loving. About 5 months ago the vet said Lucy might have 2 months left, but she is still going strong. I love her so very much and each morning she gets her massage, ear cleaning, and hugs. I do not want to think of the day when I no longer have her.
I think Lucy will live for several more years. She sounds like a fighter.🤎
😢
It sounds like Lucy is so incredibly lucky to have you!
Every morning when you hug Lucy, tell her I love her and hug her for me.
you have really cared for Lucy and she loves you back, i am certain of it. I had my rescue puppy, aged 12 week, for nearly 14 wonderful years. You will find the strength to cope. I did and I thought I wouldn't. Make the most of her, as you do, but try to trick your mind into thinking when the day comes, if necessary, you will be the ultimate carer/mum/loving friend and do the right thing. My dog, Betsy, and had a very loving relationship, hugs each morning and ear tickles, on my lap. and throughout the day. After feeding her i was brought a favourite toy. Not to play, but in thanks. She would then settle down for a sleep. lol. Many happy memories will shore you up. Just stay realistic as I am sure you are.
I'm so sorry this girl's been treated so bad. Please someone give this angel a good home. 😢
She is so 😢and scared but maybe likes women only. She seems very nervous I never seen a lab refuse a treat or a tennis ball.
Looks like the sweet talk and skull massage is helping.
She is so brave 🙂🐶
How old is she?
@@laurahennessy2893 - Looks like 6 or 8 months.
I love dogs so much! It hurts me so badly that people can be so bad to the best animals in the world. All they want to do is love someone forever.
Thank you so much for your care and kindness. This precious girl so deserves it ❤. And big thanks to Mel, the wonderful mama groomer there ❤.
In speaking about “being ready,” our teacher once told me “You don’t get over it. You make peace with it” 🙏🏻. Blessings 🩷🙏🏻🩷🐾🩷
I'm 70 and I still tear up when I remember each of my dog-babies that have passed. You never "get over" their loss; you just move on when you're ready and keep them warm in your heart.. I currently have 2 dogs & 2 cats. All adopted. I cherish every minute we have together.
When you sit with dogs, it’s like I’m with you sometimes. I want every single one. Thank you.
You are and I also want them all 😆 thanks for being on this journey with me
When Rocky watches his favourite video compilations it feels as though you are watching them with him in the same place .
How old is she? 😊
Oh, yes! Do the scoop!
You never get over the loss. You adjust to it. And when that happens, you'll be ready for another special fur friend. But don't ever try to replace the dog you lost! You cannot ever find a replacement. When you adjust, you will be ready for a new and different dog to love.
We often think of ourselves as the rescuers of these lovely souls. Truth be told, they actually are the ones that rescue us.....from our loneliness, our lack of a sense of purpose, having someone to share our feelings with who shares their compassion with us in return, someone who always loves to see us and be with us no matter how short or long we've been gone. They make us laugh and help us find our smiles all the time. They are not "pets." They are companions and just as much a part of our families as any human. I can't imagine my life without a dog and a cat. And I'm lucky that they are buddies, playing and napping together. Thanks for the reminders of how much they give us, even the tuff to place dogs. They are all worth every moment of our love and respect.❤
LOVE👼🏻💕🤧✝️🐕❤️🩹
So true "pets" get to be part of the family. Be loved and give so much more in loads. I believe they are some are some of the "angels" God put on earth.
I totally agree with you!
@@mariapetherbridge3116 I agree with you 100 %❤
Someone once told me when your fur babies pass you don’t try to “replace” them. You look for the room in your heart to welcome in more love. It’s amazing our capacity to share love when animals give it so freely. Thank you for the work you do.
Loving another pet in need is a beautiful way to honor the one you've lost
Both times I lost my beloved cats, we adopted a shelter cat. Not only did it save the cat - it saved my mental health to be able to give love to a new furbaby. Nothing could ever replace the kittys I lost, but my heart grew with each new cat. I have so much to offer a shelter animal, I couldn't think of a better way to honor my kitty's life, than to save another one.
Yes. I think it is a great way to memorialize and honor a previous beloved pet that passed. But still one needs to allow time to grieve the loss of the previous. Or you do an adoption in the waning years of the current pet. Cat's 17/or so but still showing vitality? Maybe get an eight year old kitty too if you can manage another. That way the newer one has earned his/her place in your heartt when the elder passes.@@lisabelle7553
"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them, and every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are". ~Anonymous
@@genevievel5309That’s a beautiful quote. Thank you.
She is gonna be the absolute sweetest thing once she gets passed her trauma.
When they get groomed on this channel it’s my favorite part. They’re so proud
To true "dog" people, dogs are actually a part of our families. It's okay to grieve. If and when you are ready to add another member to your family, you'll know. And you don't have to justify that to anyone. You really do a great job with these beautiful creatures and we appreciate you for all you do for them.
I lost my heart dog in 2020. Three weeks before turning 13 to cancer. Six months after he passed I decided to honor Brownie and save another. Little did I know the new dog made the sun shine again. It has been almost four years. Do I still miss Brownie? Absolutely! Do I still cry? Absolutely! Do I love my new girl? Absolutely!
Oh that's so beautiful❤❤❤❤
Yep, getting a new dog doesnt take away from the previous dog, it just adds.
@@iamaduckquack Yes. And Kenzie will sit and listen to stories about Brownie. I don't think I know a human that would to that. ❤️
I would adopt her in a heartbeat. But my apartment has a 30 pound limit. I plan on adopting a poodle or poodle mix in the next few months
Brownie...what a great doggie name ❤❤❤ great, generous approach to grief🤗 big hug to you🌹
Oh she's so beautiful. It absolutely breaks my heart that she's been neglected.
What a beautiful sweet little girl, young in age but eyes that look like they have seen a thousand lifetimes

Did you know dogs are spirits in this world. They come to those who need them the most
How about Cupid? . I am a cupid myself
I am a pediatric Rn. That might seem like a strange qualification to let you know what sometimes works for kids, especially those that are young or have experienced trauma. I sit with quietly and softly talk to them about anything. My garden, my pets, my favorite stories when I was a child.e.t.c. Your gentle presence and voice can do wonders . Worth a try, and I hope it works.
God bless you in your work, Alicia
Also works w lizards and insects and birds, I've discovered (even plants). I think sound is so primal for all living beings that they respond positively to soothing sound no matter the words used
@@cynthiagimbel6590it does seem to be universal! dogs certainly understand. having speech disabilities was actually an advantage for me working with shelter dogs. scared dogs liked how quiet and slow I talk and didn't care if I didn't get all the words right 😊❤
@@cynthiagimbel6590 I talk to my houseplants!!
Thanks - I wish I could cuddle her. This extra thanks is in memory of my best, most loving dog who died about 18 months ago. I still miss him so very much even though we’ve adopted more dogs since, but he was special and this little dog needs so much love. ❤️
Thank you and I know what you are going through. Thank you for opening your heart and home and adopting again 🙏❤️
When it is your time, you will see a hill and a horizon. Over that hill and the horizon you will see a waggly tail. It will be your precious pup, coming to take you home with him. That's how I often see my precious girl: a field of hay, and she will come for me, my great grandpa, who died 2 weeks before I was born and an animal whisperer, smiling, following her. 🌈
UkLove you many the dogs from
Speaking as the owner of a dog that will not take treats when it's too scared... if a dog is too scared to eat a treat, sometimes they will try it if you pretend to eat one yourself first to show them it's safe.
brings back memories of our first family dog that if you did a nom-nom-nom like a Muppet he'd go "Hey, that was for me"
For people who love animals, everyone should have a dog like Jenny middle name O'shocolat. Love her face, eyes, demeaner, she seems concerned every time she hears a dog barking in the canel.
It's not about replacing flip. Some people just don't realize that you're grieving. Grief takes it's own path and time. You lost an integral member of your family. You need to take it in your own time. You are a great person. You have the biggest heart. Time isn't the issue, your heart is. When you're ready you'll open up to another pup. Keep up the amazing work.
Eyes show the personality...fear, confusion, scared, uncertainty, love, etc. All of these can be seen in her big, beautiful eyes...
I had my Pomeranian Molly for 19 yrs, last August she just laid down and went to sleep. I can't even begin to explain the loss. I've had many dogs in my 68yrs and each one of them has their own special place in my heart. A friend told us about a 3yr old black Pom that was used for breeding that needed a home. So we went to see her, last week, and of course we brought her home. She is just starving for affection, she is right by our side all the time, so sweet. We named her Luna. I can't help but to think Molly sent her to us. Thank you Molly, we love you too
So sorry for yr loss I know how hard. We just had our beautiful maine coon almost 18yrs old taken from us by 2 dogs running loose. She was very arthritic but still comfortable & happy just sunning herself when attacked. She only suffered broken ribs but after a wk of TLC she just went to sleep & was gone. So glad you have another its SO horrible to come home to an empty house after losing your so much ♥️d pet.
💐❤️ from Germany
All the best with Luna - so glad you gave an overbred dog a loving home! You’re right - pain from losing your doggie friend never goes away - so sorry for your losses but so glad you found a new little soul to love!❤❤❤❤
Perfect! Wow 19 years -amazing. I believe my dog Bear was my childhood dog reincarnated in a 25 lb version as my first dog as an adult. They were even the same color.
I have a wonderful 8 year old Pom without the nervousness and full of love. I live near Nashville. I had a wonderful chocolate lab previously and giving Jenny a home would be a dream for me. How can we make it happen?
I really like that you use the term “soul dog.” I’m 70 now and had 6 dogs. I loved all of them very much, but there was one dog who was different - I can’t really say why, he was my soul dog. After 3 years I still miss him so much.
The same with one of the many cats I’ve had.
I had a soul dog. I feel truly blessed. Going on 3 years. Still miss her, still cry.
She is so sweet. She'll get adopted quickly.
I am sitting here crying as I write this. I have a real soft spot for chocolate labs as I had one but lost him to cancer. It breaks my heart to see such a scared and sad lab when I know that they are such a happy, carefree breed.😭
I know this.. poor baby doggy!! ♥️
The kindest breed. This girl is so chocolate from her eyes to her nose.
My husband has to get of 17 yr old in his sleep. lol @@ab2144
Every time you tell them it's not their fault makes me cry. Such an important thing to say.
I've had many fur babies in my life. I'm 71 & still miss them all. Memories of them occasionally pop in & out of my thoughts when situations happen that spur those pleasant memories. My current girl is a senior & has been ill the last 6 months. She's starting to get better.
Go give your pet a scratch,treat & tell them you love them.
Thank God this puppy 🐶 was rescued. I pray that this beautiful puppy 🐶 find a wonderful Compassionate loving home and awesome family. I also pray that she 🐶 has along and strong life.
Blessings to ALL
🙏🏽❤️❤️🩹🐶
I recently rescued a darker than dark boy from a shelter to keep our other rescue company. He is so dark that we lose him in the house if the light is off, very dark eyes..he is darker than a shadow....love that boy
What did you name him? Cat people call black cats voids.
She is beautiful and an absolute angel. I couldn't help but see her leg muscle twitching SO MUCH as she sat there. I hope she isn't in any pain, and that she finds the perfect forever home. With how absolutely adorable she is, and now you're showcasing her here, it won't be long.
Yes, that was the first thing I noticed.
Sometimes that just means she's sitting funny on a nerve! ❤ x
Just means she nervous, and any movement Rocky may make causes to do that as a reflex action. So VERY sad and heartbreaking to see a dog be so frozen and nervous like this. 🥺😭💔🥺😭💔But in the end, it's sooo worth it when they FINALLY brighten up with such joy knowing there are people out there that do actually care so much and want to love back immensely. 😌😊😊🤗🫂💞💗❤️💞💗❤️
Soul dog. You got me there. I cried. I'm not ready either even tho it's been a while ane everyone says yes. Thank you for that acknowledgement. And the part about carrying a comfort piece with you.
I really didn't know that about dark colored dogs in shelters. I've grown up with dogs in the house my entire life and I'm 45 now and have two of my own. Every dog my family's ever had has come from a shelter. Almost all of them have been dark colored dogs too. I'm quite partial to them actually. Glad to know that me and my family have helped out some dogs that might have had a harder chance getting adopted. ❤️
I’m from the uk, and I so want her. She’s beautiful. If I saw a dog shut down in a shelter, I wouldn’t walk past. I would be like “look a dog that needs saving”.
Exactly my feelings and approach
PS - I'm also from the UK. Hello fellow Brits! :)
Yeah. Me too! Sweet dog. Take care!
Your heart is so big it makes sense that your grieving is big! I waited nine months after i lost my last dog and I am about to lose one of my two current dogs to cancer. I am in the middle of anticipatory grief. Seeing you help these dogs lifts my heart and i am glad that you bring Flip with you! I love the box of chocolates! Jenny is so sweet!
Yeah I hear you about soul dog's. It's been 25 years and still I can't get another dog, even though my heart would love to have another German Sheppard. Love what you do. Thank you. Beautiful chocolate lab ❤
I truly appreciate your dedication to caring for animals, and your words mean a lot to me. While it's clear we're not in the same country (I'm from Asia), I understand the challenges that many animals face in different parts of the world. It's heartening to know that there are compassionate people like you who are making a difference, even in the face of adversity.
Taking care of animals indeed requires immense courage, especially when confronted with the harsh realities they often endure. Despite the difficulties, your commitment to their well-being is commendable. I admire your strength and resilience in providing hope and a brighter future for these animals.
I want to extend my gratitude to everyone who contributes to helping animals in need. Your kindness and compassion are truly something to be celebrated. Thank you for all that you do for our furry friends.
Bringing another dog in after a loss helps you to open yourself to loving again. You’re not replacing your soul dog, you’re gaining help toward healing. It was what got me through.
I'm currently a drug counsellor, but for a long time I worked as a grief counsellor, which taught me so very much about people, and it was an honour to be able to see them through their long, painful journey to recovery. I totally see what you're saying, but I think it depends on the person. Some people can react as you say and a new dog, cat, etc can help them to recover (which is wonderful), but others can take a long time to be able to open their hearts again.
If someone takes on a new animal companion too soon, they can end up comparing it to their previous one, which can lead to unexpected problems, sometimes even resentment of the new furry friend, even though that's the very last outcome anyone intended or foresaw.
Everyone is different and everyone needs their own time to recover from the trauma of loss.
Having said all that, I'm so very glad to hear that your new dog helped you to heal, and I wish you many, many happy years together. :) xx
Point taken. Buuut a real animal lover who's thinking and acting selflessly understands that minimal space and a bit of time offers much more than living in the chaos, noise and madness of a small dirty cage (often shared). These dogs sorely need a place to decompress from the trauma many have experienced. The majority are physically torn up, malnourished and in pain. Emotionally bruised and beat up too! Rocky doesn't need to find and replace his "heart dog", but Can care for fosters. Offer the minimal which is everything for many,, and saves lives.... I disagree with his reasoning and selfish actions. .. Additionally he's emotionally uneducated and doesn't really SEE or share his energy with the dogs he visits. Yet it's a lot and beats a blank...
I read that you should wait a year after a loss, due to the fact that a new dog can pick up on the sadness and it may affect the new dog.
Me too.
Rocky, I lost my husband to suicide. I have also loss my first soul dog many years before. I have learned through crisis and trauma counseling that the death of a loved one (no matter how they died) or a soul animal never really goes away, you learn to carry it with you. It is very difficult and you will never forget them but you really do learn to carry the grief with you. Much love from outside Washington, DC. 😢♥️😢♥️
So true ...
Janet, you are a true survivor. God bless you. I find that watching Rocky helping these precious lost-soul dogs is really soothing and cathartic.
@@lilac6940 Hello Lilac, thank you very much for your lovely comment. That is the same reasons I watch Rocky. It helps my soul feel lighter just knowing those dear dogs are being emotionally cared for. ♥️😘
Yes so true. ❤ lost my only son and my dog of 16 yrs. It NEVER leaves you.
Absolutely...my niece died almost 2 years ago in a violent, single car wreck. It was like a nightmare...I'll never let her go...ever. She was the daughter I never had and I raised her from an infant...I'm sick of people saying...it'll get better with time.' No, it won't...blessings to you, sweet lady 🫂💐🐾🐾💖
Aww, that poor baby she's so scared she doesnt know what to do. Its almost like she thinks "maybe if i stay really still he wont hurt me" i just want to hold her and kiss her and show her that she is important and i love her❤
Ginger would be a great name for her… she’s just beautiful!! We lost our black lab we had had for 13 years, so I totally understand how you’re not available yet to get another family member… We aren’t yet ready either. 🐶
She has soft eyes, she's part Lab, she's gonna be ok in a kind gentle home. Bless you all
Rocky, I lost my soul mate a little over 3 years ago. My sister called him Cody because she said we were codependent. He never left my side and it took me 2 years to get over the loss. I hadn't planned to get another dog when we did but we had to take my stepsons dog as he moved and couldn't keep him. He has been such a blessing. I absolutely understand your loss and love when you talk about Flip because it's nice to know that someone understands what it feels like to lose something so precious.
where is she?
@@alicelambert2401I would imagine that she died. A hard word for people to use, I guess for various reasons.
@user-wf4ro7oi3w I lost my fur son on September 1, 2023. It tore my heart out, and I am still having so much grief over my loss. His name is Charcoal, because he was coal black, and had a crested silver head and socks. He was extremely loyal up to the very end. I went down to the basement that day, where he slept in his warm bed, and called him.....then, I realized he had left me!! Oh, the immediate shock and grief took over my entire body. My wife came down after she heard me sobbing, and held me. My wife has told me several times, that I gave him a good life, and showed him love every step of the way. How I miss my son!! I can relate to you.....
He was diagnosed with an adrenal tumor and inflammatory bowl disease. He underwent surgery and seemed to be doing great and then suddenly began hemorrhaging and died shortly after our getting him to the vet. I have had all my babies cremated when they die and when I go I am going to be cremated and they will be with me forever. @@sylviekins
I don't know if you will ever read this, but you will know when the right dog comes along. Sometimes it is a few months, it might be a few years. You will know when it is right. That dog will never replace Flip, but it will fill some of the empty hole in your heart that is waiting for the right time. You are amazing!
She is very intelligent she pays attention to everything. Her beautiful sad eyes watching everything. Poor little girl 😔💔
I have had 8 dogs since I was 21. Most of them came from shelters or rescued from unwanted home. Two of them I inherited from my late mom. My memory after death is their collars and tags. I have never been without a dog as one gets old, God brings me a new one. Love adopting from a shelter. Blessings for what you do.
Yes, the collars and the tags are kept forever.
@@michelea6757 And the ashes.
@@pibbles-a-plenty1105 Ours are buried in a little pet cemetery in our yard.
I keep my late cat’s little green stuffed fish. It was her favourite toy. Everything else i gave to a shelter
I have two right now that came from inadequate homes.
I make no apologies. I stole both of them. No one ever came after me
Jenny… she is so beautiful and sweet, even before her bath ! Rocky, when you get the dogs to relax, especially when you scoop them into you lap, I feel it. You are a doggie Angel, Mel is the loving Queen of grooming and makeovers, Kelly and Alexa are compassionate Guardian Angels. You haven’t sat with a dog I wouldn’t adopt. They are all so special. 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🥰 Thank you for what you do, and giving me the honor of being a small part of it.
That dog has the most beautiful gentle eyes.
I hope Jenny's been able to find a forever home. she seems like such a sweet girl and could be such a good dog for someone.
Oh my heart
She's absolutely beautiful. Bless her heart. She definitely needs some TLC. Anxious dogs need some patience and eventually they'll open up.
She reminds me of my lab mix when I rescued her.
Black dogs are beautiful. I really hope she opens up more and with the right person she'll find trust and be so much more bright hearted. I would name her Annie to let her know the sun will come out tomorrow. ☀️♥️
Such a good girl.
My name is Annie & I definitely approve this! ❤❤❤
The sadness that these dogs show in their eyes is just heartbreaking. You did so well with little Jenny.
I totally can relate about being not ready for a new pup. I lost my doggies six months apart, and they lived to be 13 after I adopted them both from a shelter. They crossed the rainbow in 2009, and I'm just now feeling like I can have pups again. Rocky, thank you for being so vulnerable--I truly respect that! --Michelle
Rocky, you will know when you are ready for another dog. When you loose a soul dog, you can never replace them. You can (and will) find another dog who can fill the hole in your heart. But, you will always miss them. (Been over 40 years for my special dog)
She's beautiful. Thank you for caring for her.
This is a baby I would run to the shelter and adopt. I am going to pray someone gets excited to own her! I’m calling her Sally!! Thanks for giving her lovin!!
Your comforting voice cute giggle and soft touch just melts away the fear poor little babies hope she gets a good home
I love watching you Rocky what you do with these dogs is amazing you are heaven sent man! These beautiful animals just want to love their owners and all they want back is a little love and respect. Drives me crazy how some people treat their dogs.
Poor baby you can see her trembling it breaks my heart
What a beautiful, gentle soul she is. She has the most gorgeous, rich, shiny chocolate coat! She definitely needs a calm, loving, patient pet parent and probably someone who doesn't have little children because of how fearful and gentle she is. I pray that she finds that.🙏🏽
Thank you for the patience, gentle persistence and affection that you have shown her to help her to trust.❤
The groomer seems so compassionate by the way she washes all the dogs. I think she’s great !!
She is really cool to the Dogs. ❤
Ive had 3 labrador retrievers. Two brown and one black. They have the sweeteest disposition. Id love to come get this baby dog, and take her home with me to live with me and my Chloee girl and Jack. She just needs some tender loving care, kindness and affection... and a few treats.
are you planning to get her?
Rocky, you are an angel sent from heaven! Thank you for everything you do.
You are too kind. Honestly though the angel here is this cute little pup. I think I can see wings on her she just has them tucked away right now because she's scared.

I want to adopt her!!! I lost my dog 2 years ago and my sons dog 1 year ago coming up. It has broken our hearts. They were both rescues. Jenny can you find it in your heart to be our girl and share our home?
Oh my GOSH, I HOPE that you GO AND GET HER! She's BEAUTIFUL and please send pics to Rocky after you take her home! ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Her DEEP sadness and reaction to your touching her leads me to feel she does or did belong to SOMEONE.
I hope you can have her
Did you adopt her?!?! Please UPDATE US!
I hope you go and get this precious soul! 🙏❤️
You are young. When we lost our boy Willy my mister shut down. He didn’t want to walk or bike anymore. He was just so sad.
I was grieving too, but my maternal instincts must have superseded my own grief out of my desire to “save” my mister.
I looked in every shelter in the US (via pet finder) looking for just the right boy.
6 months later and my mister’s health was getting worse…but then I found Sam.
He was in a shelter two states away, but close to a family member.
I immediately called, planned the trip, and we drove to visit the family member.
When we were getting ready to leave, I begged my mister to take me by this place (about 60 miles out of our way) and we went to see Sam.
Luckily, Sam went INSANE the moment he saw my mister and acted like he had known him forever, and missed him terribly.
That was 13 years ago. Mister walks Sam miles every day, twice a day. Sam goes everywhere with him. He saved my mister. Literally saved him.
Don’t let “my heart’s not ready” prevent you from saving a dog…and getting saved in return.
How beautifully expressed! So many thanks 🙏 💕
Call her Coco 😊
Sometimes getting a new pet while still grieving for one can cause comparisons and resentment which is entirely unfair to the new pet. People who lose a child aren't told to have another child in order to heal and many view their pets as children and thus should be respected for not getting another one if that's their choice. Everyone is different and there are a number of other ways to help animals in need of care, etc without bringing them into the space that may still contain the energy and memories of the one that's passed.
Jenny is going to be alright! Sweet chocolate!
This sweet angel is absolutely terrified 😨 it breaks my heart into a million pieces. She's acting like she's been abused. I pray she finds the most amazing loving home that shows her how beautiful and amazing she is and is treated as such!!! ❤❤❤
Nailed it with naming her Jenny!! What an absolute sweet girl 🥰
Wish he could see her face when he turns away, she is really liking just listening to him talk. That is a big win, maybe treats later.
I So Love watching your videos, with the transformation of the dog from a shut down dog to a more relaxed one. I hope this choice gets rehoused quickly. We support our local dog rescue charity, The Dogs Trust, here in Norfolk, UK too. It's so heartbreaking to see shut-down dogs, but good to know when they get to their forever-home! Thank you for sharing your kind dress in these videos!
Rocky, I had my schipperke, Buddy, for over 17 years and he was the best dog I ever had. I’ll be 68 next month and have had a dog all my life. When it was finally time to let Buddy go, I wasn’t sure if I could handle getting another dog. I didn’t think I could handle the heartbreak of losing them. Well, I did get another dog, and another and then I had two dogs. I now have three because my dad died last January and I took his dog. I can honestly say, none of the dogs replaced what I had with Buddy, but I can’t imagine my life without them. My dad’s dog is 13, deaf and blind, but I’ll take loving care of him until his last day. My other two dogs are my heart and joy and hope they will live to be as old as Buddy. I write this to say, you may never be able to replace Flip, but you can fill that void with someone like Jenny.
You are a good human
It took me two years to get another dog after I lost my soul dog, Odin. I knew I would adopt another dog, but I needed the time to grieve. Take all the time you need to grieve Flip. Don't let anyone rush you into getting another dog. When you're ready, you will know.
Chocolate Labadors are absolutely beautiful to me! 🥰🥰🥰
I wish you were closer to me. I would take that dog in a heartbeat. She could bring me out of my shell while she comes out of hers. The way you talk about your lost dog crushed my heart. It's been almost 2 years since I lost mine. And it's still crushing, and this dog touched my heart.
As they all do, but this one's special.
i just adopted (2 wks ago) a young dog who is just as feaful and timid! we've had ups and downs with her...she'll hide under the bed and not come out if given the chance 😞it is heartbreaking. but we're patiently loving her through, and have the promise of better days!
Awesome. And they will come. Sometimes it takes a few days, sometimes weeks, I have even had hoarding case dogs that take months or more but with patience they will come around. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for helping your adopted baby.
My girl was abused and it took her a long time to be able to approach people. Over 8 years later she still goes under the bed when she is scared.
the harm done is so sad! down the road if shiloh wants under the bed, it's OK. right now working out her trust of us. ❤ we celebrate any small victories, of which there are plenty to rejoice in!
@@kimoda9451 my previous dog was abused, too. It took her about three months to trust and Promise became a party girl, best dog I’ve ever had. Hope for you and Shiloh better days ahead!
I am aslo a volunteer in my city's selter here in Greece. I do watch carfully your "technics" in approaching "shut down" dogs and make them a little bit happier. No strange that my four legged fammily consists of......... 5 ex-stray dogs, spoiled to the roof!!!! 😃😃😃 Thank you for all your assistanse in prooving that big dark stray mix dogs are the best members for one's family.... My 2 daugters have.... 3 more ex-stray dogs.... that is my......... bad influence!!! 😁😁😁
Rocky, thanks for the love you show these shelter dogs! God bless you!
Brilliant William! They are superb. Been on big jobs just lately but not long before I am back on the lathe and the first job will be 2 rabbits. Thanks for your time. John.
Goodness watching her from the beginning ….. I’m sure there were so many of us all over the USA that were wishing they could adopt her and give her lots of love and attention. These are always hard to watch. Thankful for Rocky and this channel to give so many sad dogs a chance ❤️
Sad to watch, but for us dog/animal lovers, it's also a good example of someone walking through the pain to help a little life see hope that things CAN get better..for them and us.
Thanks! Hope that first bath was so wonderful for her. I’m sure she’ll be adopted fast but I’m definitely considering making a trip up there. Hugs to you-I lost my soul dog over eight years ago and she’s always in my heart and mind.❤
Maybe she wants you to help this baby?
Jenny will make the perfect Valentine or Shamrock ☘️ friend. I love her floppy ears. Who doesn’t feel better after a hot bath or shower. It’s nice to see Jenny curious about herself in the mirror and eating treats. Mel got the tail to wag, as usual.
Cheers!
We owned a 40 lb female lab, and she was a perfect clone of a larger lab, including the heavy looking tail and the wonderful, loving, flaky, lab personality. I would take that little beauty in a heartbeat, but I live so far away for an adoption to be practical. Her condition right now, would not be a problem for me, because she is young enough to bring out her lab personality.
Rocky, no hurry! My chocolate lab was with me from 8 weeks to 15 years. He was magnificent! We learn to live with loss but never get over it! Take your time. I absolutely love what you do!
I wasn't ready when I got my bunny who just recently died. Your show popped on while I was heavily grieving him(still am) . Because of this show I went out and adopted an old black dog (same age as the bunny I lost). I was grieving my bunny and he was grieving his person who also died. We're helping each other through a tough time even tho we'd both rather be with the ones we lost.
It’s such a blessing to adopt an older dog! They need love and hugs and kisses too! ❤. We adopted a black and white pit bull that was abandoned in a boarded up house and left for dead. She was found by a passerby and brought to the shelter we got her from a foster organization after 9 months there. Our dog is so grateful and happy now.
JS-tv8sf - Thank you for understanding the seriousness of grieving!
You are an angel for rescuing the older pup, as people overlook that!
Bless you and your companion! 🙏❤
You will both make one another so happy ❤️
Bless you for rescuing an older dog.
@JS-tv8sf,
Please grieve your bunny but love and accept your black dog, they're truly sensitive to human rejection, he's just following your vibe, he's patiently waiting for your much needed love and comfort. Thank you.
Rocky you are the BEST. THANK YOU for all that you do. ❤❤
Rocky, your dog will never be replaced. Time is the only friend you have. You will know when the time is right for a new friend. The work you do for all the fur babies is amazing. The chocolate lab you have right now is a pure beauty. Her eyes are so expressive. Wish I could just scoop her up and give her all the love she deserves. Thank you and GOD bless ❤
12:32 I had a chocolate lab tears ago who passed away. She is a precious one
They never stay with us long enough
I bet she was a christmas puppy that got loose and the owners never found her. Scrounging for food and surviving. Shes beautiful. Ive always wanted a chocolate lab. Hope the best for her.
that little face....is totally lovable
