    Matilda’s message without saying a word, is that even though every single step is a struggle, being alive and feeling wanted is all the happiness she needs.

    I had a cat named Guy for 17 years. When I lost him the pain was really too much. I asked my Mom if she thought our pets went to heaven. She said “It wouldn’t be heaven without them.” Honey your babies are watching down on you and all their brothers and sisters 🙏🏻♥️

    I have cerebral palsy. Life is incredibly hard, but I’m so grateful for the empathy and perspective it’s given me. Sometimes it’s the struggles that help you find your purpose. Matilda has found hers.
    Side note: My parents used to call me a weeble wobble because weebles wobble but they don’t fall down.(and if they do, they get right back up)

    Good grief. What an incredible human being. Such an example of a real man. His vulnerability and honesty is so damn refreshing. I already know how he feels about his dogs! He feels the same way I do about mine. They aren’t just animals; they are family. They are PART OF ME! Lee Asher…If I had millions of dollars…this is where I’d send it. You and your babies deserve the most incredible life together.

      Me too. I have two religious organizations I would give big money to. They are the real deal. I trust them both and you don't see them on TV. They are helping Christians all over the world and taking the "good news" all over the world.
      Also, I would bless "Best Friends" animal sanctuary in Utah and now, "The Asher House."
      I hope to see Lee Asher finish building his sanctuary and I would love to visit. I also hope I'm still around to see Lee find a great wife and life partner like Steve Irwin (The Crocodile Hunter) was blessed with.

    OMGosh When you started to open the door and she 'wobbled' out towards you, the tears started. I had a stroke 7 months ago. I 'wobble'. I know how difficult mobility can be so from 49 seconds into the video, Matilda had my heart. Bless you for rescuing her and showing her all this love from the second you greeted her. You are a national treasure.

    I understand you totally! I´m a64 yrs old know, and old outcast, still an outcast in many ways but adapting and camouflaging, may be accepting that all my life, due to many and weird circumstances, made me like that . Now I start understanding that my differences may be a blessing to me or to others. I have 7 dogs and 7 cats, they all came to me in different ways and they are my canine/feline family along with my two human children. Being different is painful, you always feel like you don´t belong, you feel abandoned and fragile, and I think dogs can sense that. They think, this human has felt so much pain, he/she is like me, I can trust him/her. YOU ARE GREAT, YOU ARE DIFFERENT, and see how that DIFFERENCE creates love and understanding. Because you are SPECIAL and DIFFERENT you create a wonderful environment of love for the dogs, and through these happy dogs and your videos you communicate how sensitive you are. NEVER, never minimize these feelings!! YOU ARE GREAT and nobody can deny that! Keep working, many dogs and many people need you. I´m sending you a big bear hug from Spain.

    Lee, you are not the outcast.... You never needed to be like everyone else, everyone else needs to be like you. The world is so hyper focused on living "the perfect life" that they are completely missing their purpose. You know yours! You know why you are on this earth... And you give your purpose your all ... ❤️ So blessed to have stumbled upon you and your purpose. Thank you

    That face! Those expressive eyes! That cute, little body wiggling. Her short little legs are adorable. The way she looks when she's lying down with Lee seems like a "spiritual" connection. Can a dog be any more adorable?! She is having the time of her life with Lee and the pack.
    Oh, thank you for saving this precious, wonderful soul!

    Thank you so much for loving this girl. I’m 70 years old and have the same condition as Matilda caused by mini strokes. Mine is not as bad as hers. It’s a loss of balance. It breaks my heart watching her walk, but warms my heart so much to watch you love on her. We all have defects, Lee. Some are visible, some are not. Your big heart more than makes up for any defect you feel you have. I love your channel.

I love her so much and I’m so grateful to the rescue that found her and took her in. She was skin and bones and had parvo. They didn’t think she would survive but she fought through it. I totally believe she was meant to be my dog. ❤

Your words reminded me of him right now, today is the anniversary of his passing. He was my world. Matilda is a gift, a wonder.. my heart melted completely, just seeing her. She is an earth angel, as you are Lee. God bless you and your pups. 🙏🏻💜💜💜

I saw her and of course my first thought was, "I want her!" 😊 You're a man after my own heart. You're living the dream I've had all my life. It's also my mom's dream as well. I've always wanted to buy a big ranch so I could empty out all the animal shelters around me. Thank you for giving in to your HUGE heart. You can judge a person's character by their love, or lack of, for animals. I'm a huge lover of all animals. Stay strong and know how awesome you are. ❤️🙏❤️

It was like I was watching myself and my fur baby. No one wanted her. The moment I saw her, I was in love instantly. We spend 10 amazing years together. But unfortunately at the age of 13 she got the worst cancer a dog can have. She is my angel now, looking out for me from heaven. Lee, you are one amazing guy. Ty for everything you do.

Watching you with your pack ,has been a daily pleasure for me. Thanks , Lee for all you do for all your animals. Your love and compassion is absolutely heart warming. I only wish I could help you out by giving you money to help support your sanctuary, but unfortunately I live on a very small social security check which pay for the place we’re I live. Keep up doing what you do so we’ll. I will keep up with you and your pack, because you bring such joy into my. ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴

      Nadine you touched me with your story. In August of 2021, I had a severe heart attack, resulted in a triple bypass.
      My sweet ShihTzu Lucy barked incessantly, wouldn't stop...Im not really sure where I was drifting, the world became black and white on one side of the room, my side. Her side was in color. I'm not sure how long I just stood beside the bed, it was just after midnight. Her barking snapped me back to the present moment. I will never forget her saving me that nite. I lost my sweet girl a week ago. I actually fell asleep, got up and went to the hospital in the morning...where they told me I was still actively having the heart attack. I had been surviving for approximately 10 hours with just enough blood flow to keep my major organs and heart, brain alive.
      After the triple bypass, and healing, I am extremely lucky. I didn't have any side effects from the heart attack.
      Nothing. It's amazing to know I had 3 arteries totally blocked and I'm still here, doing great. But what I wanted to say to you...I had to do an emergency retirement....I also live on a SS check. We may not be able to send money...but we can help get the message about Asher House out to the public, who can tell others. And we can offer words of encouragement to Lee and everyone that keeps the rescue thriving.
      Be good to yourself 🤗
