It' Doesnt matter to Me ? It's more of a " THANK YOU " for ALL THE LOVE out their for People who Help Save and Rescue Lives ! It's A Beutiful thing to think of, to know good people are still out here in this world.
This one brought tears to my eyes. The scared, snarling, dog is just a sweet little angel inside. Your patience, compassion, and caring brought out the angel.
God Bless you for rescuing this dog and finding him a home! Anyone who would abandon a dog like that is a horrible evil person! Animals deserve love to! I wish all stray and abandoned dogs could be as lucky as this one was!
its so hard for me to watch videos like this cause i love dogs so much i need to watch to restore my faith in human beings who care about dogs and want to help even though i cry seeing these i feel better knowing there are kind ppl out there god bless you all who help these little guys
In my view, dogs mirror the same set basic set of needs for love, affection, loyalty, and tactile expressions of affection and concern as we humans do, with the marked difference that they do not manipulate or act with ulterior motives as do some of us humans. For my part, I have learned a great deal about loyalty and dedication from my dogs, and they have all added immensely to the positive experiences in my life. They have known intuitively when I have been distraught and in need of reassurance, or even their silly antics that get me into a more cheerful frame of mind.
Your rescues are so heart tugging. I love animals. May God bless you for all you do, thank God there is someone like you out there to help god's creatures. They give nothing but unconditional love. I just want to say again Thank you.
+Ruby Tuesday (Catnip) Because people are fucking retarded, ie Leia “Scythress” Skye, Ruby Tuesday (Catnip), and the lovable The Anal Intruder and don't know how to turn down their volume.
+Ruby Tuesday (Catnip) These are stories that need to be told but why people feel the need to devalue them by using such syrupy contrived background music is beyond me. The story itself should be enough to affect any feeling decent human being. IMO of course. P.S. Beautiful dog, i love the "put your fingers there and lose them" attitude morphing into the "ooh aah nice scratch".
Your gentleness, patience, and kindness reaffirmed my faith in humanity. When Duke lifted his head and closed his eyes and leaned into your hand as you gave him some deeply needed love, I was very moved. Thank you for sowing love and hope into an often cruel and painful world.
I adopted my wonderful German Shepherd from Westside about a year and a half ago and he's the center of my world and I love him to bits. Couldn't ask for a sweeter dog and the work that they do out of Westside rescue is amazing. Thanks so much for all you do and for connecting me with my Rainer!
Just like my dog! I found my dog laying on the side of the road in 100+ degree temps. It took me about a half hour to be able to get close enough and gain enough of his trust that I could get a leash on him. Only to find out what I thought was black fur was massive groups of fleas and ticks. Once in my truck he immediately started wagging his tail, bouncing around in the back seats and licking my buddy's and my face. 5 years later he's still as happy and playful as ever. And continuing to repay me with smiles and laughter.
THE PERSON WHO UPLOAD THIS IS NOT THE RESCUER! THE PERSON WHO DID SAVE THIS DOG'S LIFE IS KNOWN AS ELDAD HAGAR. It's great that you want to spread this video but I would love it if you credit him in the title rather than in the description box. A lot of people won't read it and they would think you saved the dog when you didn't. I'm glad a lot of you guys are touched but please go to the real rescuer's channel and show support. It's eldad75 and he is an amazing person for rescuing all sorts of animals that are in trouble. Please do not thank the uploader, and thank the real person behind this.
First of all, I can't "chill" when the person who deserves the million view isn't getting it on his channel. Second, I never said anything about a conspiracy but just giving credit where it belongs in the comments for people who miss the description. Third, judging from all the comments, not many people know who the true rescuer as they think it's you because you upload it. And fourth, why would I "reign" it in a little when I can get people to support Eldad and his organization to save more dogs like Duke? Look I'm not trying to get into a fight and it may seem that way since I typed it with all caps. I'm just trying to grab people's attention so that they can go support such an amazing person. I would still encourage you to change the title by including his youtube channel at least. Descriptions aren't enough at times when a bunch of people can skip it.
juandiamante46 And apparently you don't like supporting heroes that saves tons of lives while you go around commenting how people are an idiot. Gosh, how much I love this world.
CowChan789 I knew it was Eldad because I happen to see this video before. I don't know why people say "this is the internet" so does that mean people should be rude to people because it's the internet? I also think if people truly want to show support and donate they would look further on how to do that and they'd then discover that Eldad was responsible for these rescues.
Professional musicians, singers, when covering original artist's songs always strive to be as good as, and better than the original recording, especially when it is a huge hit, I never heard Mariah's cover of this song before, but emotionally it is better than Foreigner. In this video, it is tear inducing for folks like me who grew up with German Shepherds, imo, one of the best breeds, if not the best. Now I want to go back to my childhood like never before, just to be with my hero GS again, while listening to Mariah sing this song, dadgum, perfect song with video got me all choked up. Suks getting old.
I don't understand how anybody can abandon any dog. We rescued a Black Labrador at 6months old from a family in Leeds, UK. She was starving, hyperactive, scared and truly stunk. 5 baths later, plenty of treats and a balanced diet she is now such a loving and wonderful dog. It breaks my heart to see stories of dogs being abandoned, but with people like you in the world it goes to show that the act of human kindness has not gone. I hope Dude is fit and well... all the best
These folks are really really good people with really big hearts. I wish no one will abandon their dogs. Please think twice before abandoning your dogs for whatever reasons. Please...............
WOW HOW NICE DUDE I WISH NOTHING BUT THE BEST FOR U... I HAVE A GERMAN DOG MYSELF AND I LOVE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH LIKE IF HE WAS HUMAN... WHAT I LOVED THE MOST OF THIS VIDEO IS THE PART WHEN HE GETS SCARED AND LOOKS LIKE HES ABOUT TO ATTACK U BUT THEN U CALMED HIM DOWN AND HE TRUSTED U RIGHT AWAY HOW NICE OF U GUYS !!!!!!
I simply thank God for bringing these caring people into this dogs life and I can tell by the pictures that the dog is grateful as well. Obviously I love dogs, cats and pretty much all animals. I have had dogs, cats and a squirrel or two as pets that were returned to the wild when they had recovered from whatever attacked them.
I love animals..Can’t stop watching video of rescuing animals.. I love u guys.. Animals need humans love n care.. Don’t hurt them.. I tears up when it’s unsuccessful rescued but i will be happy when they are safe hands.. Dont look away for them.. Thank you people🙏💕
Someone say this is fake, others say just feed the dogs and they will love you. Sorry poor guys, I say these dogs just want to love and be loved, no more!
I want to tell a story here that will be unpopular. First ask yourself why would anyone "dump" their pets someplace instead of taking them to a shelter? Do you know why? I do. Shelters charge money for any animal you drop off. And if you are in a dire situation enough that you have to give up your dogs then you certainly do not have the cash to pay the shelter to take your dogs. So my guess is the dog owner had no choice but to "dump" the dogs. Here is my story- For 2 days i had been hearing noise out my window-sounded like "hawks screeching"...finally i went and knocked on my neighbors door and asked if i could go in their yard and see if i could find the source of the noise.I found 8 baby kittens under an upturned metal wheelbarrow in 106 degree summer full sun heat. No mom cat to be found and the neighbor owned no cats. I took them in, bought expensive kitten formula and hand fed these critters 3-4 times a day. When they got big enough i drove them to my local Ramona Animal Shelter (just 4 miles from my home). And guess what...they said they would not take them. Period. No ifs buts or maybe. They said i had to take them to the County Animal Services place (33 miles away). Ok i had enough gas in my car do do this so i drove tho the County Services place and waited an hour and 45 mins (in the heat) only to get to the front of the line (my luck it was dog and cat spay Saturday) and be told they would take the animals if i paid them $60.....excuse me???? I was a good samaritan and rescued, fed and was doing the right thing by bringing them to an animal shelter.Kittens that were not even mine! I'm unemployed and used what money i had to buy expensive kitten formula and the shelter would not take the kittens. And i did not even have $20 bucks let alone $60 bucks. So what do i do? I wanted to leave the kittens in their box at the shelter and walk away...but obviously i couldn't. I drove home...very angry. I did my best to find the kittens homes and i did find 6 kittens homes. Now i had 2 left over. I will not tell you what i did but just like this video, i was in the same situation, as whoever owned those dogs, i had 2 cats (not mine) that i could not keep and TWO animal shelters would not take them in. So be a hater all you want but remember... ask yourself what is a person to do when animal shelters turn you away?
They charge a fee because they need money to buy the resources they need to care for the dog until they get adopted. Depending on where you live the charge fee can be anywhere from $15 to $75. But remember that's what they're asking for so that they can provide your dog with food and water.
+Stayce Miranda While that is understandable, by charging a fee that discourages and in some cases completely prevents many people from dropping them off. Many pet owners simply are no longer able to afford to care for their pet. They don't have the $15 to spend when for some that would buy a week's worth of groceries.
+Senzai just because you were in that situation doesn't mean whoever did this was in the same one. and frankly, you'd be better off dropping them at the door of a vet clinic shortly before they open than just abandoning them. what you tried to do (and what you did) is amazing for the most part, but if you abandoned them, that's on you.
***** It's true. In fact he did the right thing, that is to look for a solution as far as he could. And in the case one had to really abandon a dog, there are "better" ways than to just let him in the street or the woods.
Thank you for rescuing him and what a great story this is! I love GS, my dad had one when we were growing up and it was the most loyal dog you could ever find. My 5 year old black lab Lexi passed away recently and I am thinking about adopting another one soon, hopefully German Shepherd or another Lab.
to help to clarify why rescues must ask for donations - they are run fully on donations if not out of the pocket of the rescuers themselves. All monies go to the care, vet bills (huge bills here of dogs rescued), boarding, feeding etc. if the rescue is paying a trainer for her or his time, then that's how the money is needed. Rescues work on a shoestring and usually most rescuers pay out of pocket and with their time - many have full time jobs and families. This is why they have to pay a trainer. I hope that helps you understand the dedication and financial need.
I think what you did for Duke is wonderful and amazing. I hope you keep him he seems to trust you .May G-d bless you and Hillary in all your days ahead.
These videos never get old. It's heartbreaking seeing a dog with a broken spirit.. but once they realize things are going to change, all the love and happiness comes back instantly :)
damen grandel that's not your wife. it's those high-skilled, invisible onion chopping ninjas RUclips emits from the speaker with every tearjerker video. apologise to the missus already.
Pitoresmi Pujiningsih nope she cut the onions. i dont know what your smoking to believe that there are invisible onion chopping ninjas but what ever it is i want some!! maybe it will help with the potent tear producing chemical released into the air from MY WIFE cutting the onions.
icemanroyal Do you know how to operate your volume control? It's about saving a life not the music or are both the volume control and a life worth living with someone that love you with no conditions beyond your comprehension? How many dogs have you rescued that were starved, beaten, neglected, shot, and just plain abused? Yet still, despite it all they come to us. Get your head out of your x-box and realize there is a life outside your mommy's basement.
Desadarius Mica I think we all understand that he can mute it but I'm sorry I have to agree, the music is pretty damn shitty and corny. I love dogs and have rescued a dog or two but I wouldn't be playing this shit as I do it. Like c'mon, we know its a sad/happy moment but damn, nobody wants to hear corny music in the background of a video that's supposed to be about the dog. So take the stick out of your ass cause icemanroyal isn't saying abusing dogs is okay or even that he's stuck in his mommy's basement playing xbox (uncalled for).
Chris Kavanagh duke unfortunately died of cancer he was suffering shortly after this video.... but the good news was it was in a forever home with people who loved him
Absolutely. There are many videos I just don't watch because of the music. I suppose I could just mute it, but there is a sound track. You just can't hear it over the music.
Thank you sooooooooo much!! my heart broke when i saw how scared he was when the cage shut. Thank you so much for going through this trouble and saving this gorgeous amazing german shephard!
Canada and USA Rock Can we just enjoy this beautiful video? Please? Look at that sweet little german shepherd. I have one myself, and they are amazing dogs that don't deserve what this one went through. Did we come here just argue over who does what? Let's face it, there is no way of proving ANYTHING on the internet. Sure, I can TELL you I'm fifteen. I can TELL you I have a dog. I can TELL you I have good grades. But how do you know? This is stupid. None of us should have been arguing in the first place, although I am really just a side character in this conversation. Let's also consider this: I teared up too, because with how sweet this video was altogether combined with the song they used, who can blame me? But no one is going to call me out on it. Because I'm a f****** girl, and girls are allowed to cry, whenever they want. Girls are allowed to like whatever they want. What the hell? I mean, guys are held against specific things they have to like. If you're a guy that DOESN'T like first person shooter games, if you DON'T enjoy everything stereotyped to be manly, then society classifies you as gay, or girly, or as you say it “crybaby". So, he likes animals and a sweet video touched him. And? I'd say if you weren't touched by this video, you must have some sort of past with animals that took away your sympathy.
MimitehDragon I appreciate the reply, and you're right. Anyone can "SAY" anything they want online, but that wasn't my point. This ''person," for a lack of better words, thinks getting teary-eyed over a ''beautiful video,'' as you put it, is a "faggy, gay'' thing to do. MY point is, being in the military is one of the manliest things a guy can do in his life, in my humble opinion. But so what? You can't be a MAN, and cry too? That's the problem I had here. I love dogs, have had them since I was a kid, they helped me through tough times, lived with me through the happy times. "Man's best friend" is an understatement to me. Anyway, not to ramble on, but I thought I would TRY to get through to that guy. But since I couldn't, and it's a complete waste of time, and I'm sick of seeing hate comments on my post, I just decided to delete all of his, and most of the responses, dealing with him. Anyway, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
highmetalman6 Yeah. Sounds like a plan. :P Personally I've lived my life with some wonderful cats, and got my first dog a few months back. Always loved animals, though, any kind. (Except little yappy dogs. I HATE little yappy dogs.)
dogs need to trust less, in fact, all animals do. if they are being tortured and are suffering today its not because they are weak, its because they are too naive and trust humans a lot. sad
You're comment angers me. You seem to just be under the assumption that they can break out of a psychological restraint. Its the same people who have been abused by people they have trusted, do think these people are naive do you think these people are sad? Maybe you should think a little more about the mind set of an animal or human first.
That's not true. Think about it like this (this is something I learned about the circus): when the elephants are being kept in training and upkeep, they have a chain around their feet so they can not escape. However, if you take the chain off of their feet, they will not run away. The elephants still think that they can't run away since they are used to not being able to do so. The same thing goes with animals that have gone through abuse; they truly believe that they can't do anything to change that.
You need to learn more about animals and not attribute human emotions to them. Animals do not have naivete.. they have instincts. Some have had those stunted and trained out of them and that is not their fault. It is also this characteristic of dogs that we value so much that many also abuse. Do not blame the animal, blame the human who has done this to them.
my uncle and her stupid wife. have a little dog. and they dont take care of him. they tie him outside all day and night with no food just water. they dont shower him or take him to the vet.. if i call pet control will they come for him? hes just suffering
Debi W yea. i found out the wife let him go.. but my cousin found him like 5 blocks away. he didnt know she let him free.. now that poor thing sufferig again. idk why the fuck they get dogs and they dont take care of them. im going to go later if i see him outside im taking him without telling them. and taking him to animal hospital and see what they can do.
Be careful with that if you do. There are legal issues with doing that. I would - because for me, it's all about the animal. I did animal rescue for years. I've been shot at, stabbed and beat... to me, it was worth it. I can find ways to fight back. The poor dogs couldn't. God bless you! BTW - you'll also be on the hook for the hospital bill. Call the Humane Society or local country/city animal shelter and report abuse. Only problem, they're overloaded. Short staffed, calls often take weeks or months to get too and so many things can happen in such a long amount of time.
It hurts to see dogs sufferings.. Iam same time so happy for this.. God bless u people for what u do for animals, saving these souls... Tqvm.. God bless. Hope these souls find a great loving home also.. My prayers always for these animals.. 🙏
My heart feel their pains.. Left one alone makes u more feel so hard.. Thank you so much people for saving the soul.. God Bless..🙏💜 If there is Duke update please share out.. Thank you so much again😍
yea german Shepard s are like the number 1 dog police use them I expect maybe a mutt but a german shepherd you still have to be careful because the last owner could of abuse it
I have a "serra da estrela", a portuguese dog breed, which is considered a threat by italian people. But I can't resist to such cuteness. She's the most beautiful dog in the world, german shepherds and serra the estrela are both amazing!!! Mine has blue eyes just like a husky xD and her fur texture makes me remember german shepherds.
My little brother..who now has an address in heaven is smiling down on you and Duke.. this was the breed he so loved and I see him in heaven caring for those dogs who are waiting for their humans to join them.. God watch over duke and the many others like him.. may they all find a loving home.
Is this video fake? Was that guy doing all this his own dog just to produce this video? Have a hard time believing you can earn a dog's trust after tricking him into confinement. Research an organization before you donate money.
in reality, the dog was probably in the cage for a few hours, it would of taken a long time to get the dog to trust them, they just showed a few minutes of it for entertainments sake.
Notice how he relaxes when she shows up. It's true that dogs are instinctively at ease with women. You can always tell the ones that were abandoned but NOT abused.
pinz2022 Don't be so stupid. Dogs relate to people regardless of gender. It's how they're treated that matters. Women can abuse dogs too, you sexist fool.
K Mahoney he wasnt trying to be. it IS true. i dont know why dogs tend to do that. maybe because we have different scents?If you were a female and approached an adult dog they arent ass alert as they would be with a full grown adult male. There is nothing sexist about it. it just happens. I have worked as a volunteer for my local humane society. So I have a bit of experience. They arent thinking about "this dude is violent than this girl" no. They do not see it like that. Its just how they are. True it varies but hey.t. Now He said "instinctively". Key words. Hell in the animal kingdom it gets like that ESPECIALLY with humans.Might as well call everyone sexist. Think about it. I huge male coming up to some women may have them on guard mentally, a woman on the other hand, not so much.Some women approach men if they need help with something more so than a female, and so on. Its just primarily based on experience,
K Mahoney he didnt say anything about "dogs dont relate to men" at all. neither did he say anything like "all men are violent, women are the most gentle etc. I dont get how you can read sexist from that comment. Calm down. Not everyone's motives surround sexism.
My grandmother used to say that not all angels in this world has wings.. some have four legs.
-and some have two legs too, like Eldad Hagar. If you do not subscribe to his channel please do and see the amazing work he does.
Your grandma is wise
The way his fear just drained out of him when he realised the guy wasn't going to hurt him....beautiful
Thanks to those who show a kind heart in a world which is to often cruel.
THANK YOU for saving his Life and Giving him LOVE. Wish more people were like that in this world.
Me to!
It wasn't the uploader.
It' Doesnt matter to Me ? It's more of a " THANK YOU " for ALL THE LOVE out their for People who Help Save and Rescue Lives !
It's A Beutiful thing to think of, to know good people are still out here in this world.
QFGlass I know right! I hate animal Abusers and child abusers they are the worst****
This one brought tears to my eyes. The scared, snarling, dog is just a sweet little angel inside. Your patience, compassion, and caring brought out the angel.
I cry like a baby when it comes to animals....they are so innocent and they give us so much love and yet there are still people who hurt them.
Thanks to people like you, the world is better place.
That's amazing. He went to showing teeth, to love. You could see he felt, happy. Like, "Oh. This is nice. Maybe their trying to help me. "
I know, funny. :-)
Thank you for rescuing Duke. Made me cry. I hope he is doing fine and is adopted.
God Bless you for rescuing this dog and finding him a home! Anyone who would abandon a dog like that is a horrible evil person! Animals deserve love to! I wish all stray and abandoned dogs could be as lucky as this one was!
couldnt have put it better myself ;)

Who abandons their dog(s)? This makes me want to hurt someone.
You can literally see the moment his faith in humanity was restored amazing
+Thomas Colosi If my current dog dies soon, and he could, and Duke is still available, I would drive down to L.A. and adopt him.
2:23 broke my heart. All the dog ever wanted was to be loved. To be shown affection.
I just got a few tears now....great People!
Your rescues are so heart tugging. I love animals. May God bless you for all you do, thank God there is someone like you out there to help god's creatures.

I just want to say again Thank you.
You all are beautiful from inside & out. Thanks for the rescue of this voiceless soul. May God be with you all through out ....
That's so nice, thanks for saying that! :-)
You are good people.
30 seconds in,i'm crying. Why so many thumbs down.

+Ruby Tuesday (Catnip) Because people are fucking retarded, ie Leia “Scythress” Skye, Ruby Tuesday (Catnip), and the lovable The Anal Intruder and don't know how to turn down their volume.

Matthew C What do you want to hear about, my rescued 16 year old Jack Russell or my rescued 6 year old Corgi cross?
Great people right here! We need more like you. When people speak up for the speechless that a strong person right there.
Your gentleness, patience, and kindness reaffirmed my faith in humanity. When Duke lifted his head and closed his eyes and leaned into your hand as you gave him some deeply needed love, I was very moved. Thank you for sowing love and hope into an often cruel and painful world.
I adopted my wonderful German Shepherd from Westside about a year and a half ago and he's the center of my world and I love him to bits. Couldn't ask for a sweeter dog and the work that they do out of Westside rescue is amazing. Thanks so much for all you do and for connecting me with my Rainer!
Ah man, that moment at 1:30 when he like, "Oh....maybe....this guy doesn't want to hurt me?"
amazing
the feels at that moment...
Slowly the cheeks drop.... Aww he's so happy :3
Just fantastic. Has me in tears.
♥ LOVE is the greatest healer...thank you!!!
♥
Seeing folks out there, doing these rescues, has helped me come out of a very dark time in my life and got me supporting my local rescue groups.
Just like my dog! I found my dog laying on the side of the road in 100+ degree temps. It took me about a half hour to be able to get close enough and gain enough of his trust that I could get a leash on him. Only to find out what I thought was black fur was massive groups of fleas and ticks. Once in my truck he immediately started wagging his tail, bouncing around in the back seats and licking my buddy's and my face. 5 years later he's still as happy and playful as ever. And continuing to repay me with smiles and laughter.
this made me cry.....
the change occuring in 1:23 is beautiful
waw! that transformation 1:27-1:37 was amazing!
All you need is LOOOOOOVE
Animals are our companions in this crazy trip called life, and it's an honour to know them.
We need more people like this in the world... people who are willing to help the scared and neglected animals that live on the streets.
how can people be so cruel??? a dog is a mans best friend! i know this because i have one

Who the fuck would dump a German Shepard? They're like one of the smartest dogs and the coolest. Some people.
Who would dump ANY dog!?
dooggyloover you are so right
also one of the most expensive
Professional musicians, singers, when covering original artist's songs always strive to be as good as, and better than the original recording, especially when it is a huge hit, I never heard Mariah's cover of this song before, but emotionally it is better than Foreigner.

Great people doing even greater things. This is what makes the world a better place. Thank you for being awesome
That 1:24 going from full teeth snarling to slow relaxing. o.0
Great video.
I don't understand how anybody can abandon any dog. We rescued a Black Labrador at 6months old from a family in Leeds, UK. She was starving, hyperactive, scared and truly stunk. 5 baths later, plenty of treats and a balanced diet she is now such a loving and wonderful dog. It breaks my heart to see stories of dogs being abandoned, but with people like you in the world it goes to show that the act of human kindness has not gone.

Dogs are the best companions and Shepherds top that list!! F@#k the 171 dislikes!! Great job Mr. Hagar!!
Eldad, you're my hero. Thank you for what you do. So many animals have been saved because of your commitment.
These folks are really really good people with really big hearts. I wish no one will abandon their dogs. Please think twice before abandoning your dogs for whatever reasons. Please...............
How could someone dump such a beautiful dog. Why could they just not give them to an animal sanctuary??
Because simply, these people are thick. They give no thought to the fact that a dog is actually intelligent.

It was more a rethoric question :-)
wow the power of food still astounds to this day
+Armand Tonga Go GSW!
+Armand Tonga i wanna know what food is :D But you see at 1:23 some caresses make a change too.
+Search Its originally a Hope for Paws video (they ask people to share the videos) and they always use cheeseburgers.
Ted Tischar
I was making a joke with the song :)
By the way I don't agree a lot with feeding diary to the dogs, but once is not a tragedy.
WOW HOW NICE DUDE I WISH NOTHING BUT THE BEST FOR U... I HAVE A GERMAN DOG MYSELF AND I LOVE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH LIKE IF HE WAS HUMAN... WHAT I LOVED THE MOST OF THIS VIDEO IS THE PART WHEN HE GETS SCARED AND LOOKS LIKE HES ABOUT TO ATTACK U BUT THEN U CALMED HIM DOWN AND HE TRUSTED U RIGHT AWAY HOW NICE OF U GUYS !!!!!!
I simply thank God for bringing these caring people into this dogs life and I can tell by the pictures that the dog is grateful as well. Obviously I love dogs, cats and pretty much all animals. I have had dogs, cats and a squirrel or two as pets that were returned to the wild when they had recovered from whatever attacked them.
I love animals..Can’t stop watching video of rescuing animals.. I love u guys.. Animals need humans love n care.. Don’t hurt them.. I tears up when it’s unsuccessful rescued but i will be happy when they are safe hands.. Dont look away for them.. Thank you people🙏💕
p.s. i cried when i saw this--you are one brave person !
crying
me too
ditto
NO.....I'm not crying .......I'm just Sweating through my eyes TT_____TT *sobs* !!!!!
Ari Lennox yo I forget ur a normal human being sometimes. I’m so happy to find u here sis 😂😫
Someone say this is fake, others say just feed the dogs and they will love you.
Sorry poor guys, I say these dogs just want to love and be loved, no more!
***** what?
Love that look! "Don't you dare touch me!" Bless her/his heart. Let him find a forever home NOW!
Duke truly does know what LOVE IS - now! Thank you so very much Ladies.
Whoever did this to a German Shepherd, any dog but especially a GS deserves to be beaten unconscious. German shepherds are the love of my life.
every method of torture pls
Alex Ware
I agree 100 percent.
+Commander Shepherd :)
It's not just a German Shepard it's all animals no animal should be treated like that
+Lexi YOU ARE CORRECT!! :)
I want to tell a story here that will be unpopular.
First ask yourself why would anyone "dump" their pets someplace instead of taking them to a shelter?
Do you know why?
I do.
Shelters charge money for any animal you drop off.
And if you are in a dire situation enough that you have to give up your dogs then you certainly do not have the cash to pay the shelter to take your dogs.
So my guess is the dog owner had no choice but to "dump" the dogs.
Here is my story-
For 2 days i had been hearing noise out my window-sounded like "hawks screeching"...finally i went and knocked on my neighbors door and asked if i could go in their yard and see if i could find the source of the noise.I found 8 baby kittens under an upturned metal wheelbarrow in 106 degree summer full sun heat. No mom cat to be found and the neighbor owned no cats. I took them in, bought expensive kitten formula and hand fed these critters 3-4 times a day. When they got big enough i drove them to my local Ramona Animal Shelter (just 4 miles from my home).
And guess what...they said they would not take them.
Period.
No ifs buts or maybe.
They said i had to take them to the County Animal Services place (33 miles away). Ok i had enough gas in my car do do this so i drove tho the County Services place and waited an hour and 45 mins (in the heat) only to get to the front of the line (my luck it was dog and cat spay Saturday) and be told they would take the animals if i paid them $60.....excuse me???? I was a good samaritan and rescued, fed and was doing the right thing by bringing them to an animal shelter.Kittens that were not even mine!
I'm unemployed and used what money i had to buy expensive kitten formula and the shelter would not take the kittens. And i did not even have $20 bucks let alone $60 bucks.
So what do i do? I wanted to leave the kittens in their box at the shelter and walk away...but obviously i couldn't.
I drove home...very angry. I did my best to find the kittens homes and i did find 6 kittens homes. Now i had 2 left over. I will not tell you what i did but just like this video, i was in the same situation, as whoever owned those dogs, i had 2 cats (not mine) that i could not keep and TWO animal shelters would not take them in. So be a hater all you want but remember... ask yourself what is a person to do when animal shelters turn you away?
They charge a fee because they need money to buy the resources they need to care for the dog until they get adopted. Depending on where you live the charge fee can be anywhere from $15 to $75. But remember that's what they're asking for so that they can provide your dog with food and water.
+Senzai
Good point!
+Stayce Miranda While that is understandable, by charging a fee that discourages and in some cases completely prevents many people from dropping them off. Many pet owners simply are no longer able to afford to care for their pet. They don't have the $15 to spend when for some that would buy a week's worth of groceries.
+Senzai just because you were in that situation doesn't mean whoever did this was in the same one. and frankly, you'd be better off dropping them at the door of a vet clinic shortly before they open than just abandoning them. what you tried to do (and what you did) is amazing for the most part, but if you abandoned them, that's on you.
*****
It's true. In fact he did the right thing, that is to look for a solution as far as he could. And in the case one had to really abandon a dog, there are "better" ways than to just let him in the street or the woods.
1:25 DONT YOU DARE FUCKING TOUCH ME, I WILL DESTROY YOU!
1:32 Oh, thanks man!
Thank you for rescuing him and what a great story this is! I love GS, my dad had one when we were growing up and it was the most loyal dog you could ever find. My 5 year old black lab Lexi passed away recently and I am thinking about adopting another one soon, hopefully German Shepherd or another Lab.
That's true love by both the rescuers and that wonderful dog. Amazing job you all do to help our animal friends. Thanks for this video.
I WANT TO BE A DOGS RESCUER WHEN I GROW-UP : )
Donovan Pierre So does ChowChan789. LOL!!!
Donovan Pierre why not be an animal rescuer when you grow up?
to help to clarify why rescues must ask for donations - they are run fully on donations if not out of the pocket of the rescuers themselves. All monies go to the care, vet bills (huge bills here of dogs rescued), boarding, feeding etc. if the rescue is paying a trainer for her or his time, then that's how the money is needed. Rescues work on a shoestring and usually most rescuers pay out of pocket and with their time - many have full time jobs and families. This is why they have to pay a trainer. I hope that helps you understand the dedication and financial need.

Eldad strikes again!
I think what you did for Duke is wonderful and amazing. I hope you keep him he seems to trust you .May G-d bless you and Hillary in all your days ahead.
These videos never get old. It's heartbreaking seeing a dog with a broken spirit.. but once they realize things are going to change, all the love and happiness comes back instantly :)
Dogs should be protected at all cost oh my god!
Whatever happened to Duke? Did he find a forever home?
This is what we humans do to our best friends. Sigh.
You are a sweet lady for such kind words, bless you.
Animals have been my greatest teachers of humanity. Bless the hearts of those that care, and show it.
damn these onions, im going to go yell at my wife for cutting these freaking onions in the damn room again. brb...
damen grandel that's not your wife. it's those high-skilled, invisible onion chopping ninjas RUclips emits from the speaker with every tearjerker video.
apologise to the missus already.
Pitoresmi Pujiningsih nope she cut the onions. i dont know what your smoking to believe that there are invisible onion chopping ninjas but what ever it is i want some!! maybe it will help with the potent tear producing chemical released into the air from MY WIFE cutting the onions.
damen grandel YOUR WIFE'S A NINJA!
i'm not worthy, master...
Pitoresmi Pujiningsih lol!!
damen grandel You dont have a wife.
it would be nice to watch these videos without the CHEEESY music
orrr someone could make a better video without crappy music. currently searching..
icemanroyal its about thedogs not music how can you complain they saved tihis dog. man are humans sacks of shit
icemanroyal it doesn't matter about the fucking music its the dog! If u want music go to music not a dog rescue video, stupid ass!
icemanroyal Do you know how to operate your volume control? It's about saving a life not the music or are both the volume control and a life worth living with someone that love you with no conditions beyond your comprehension? How many dogs have you rescued that were starved, beaten, neglected, shot, and just plain abused? Yet still, despite it all they come to us. Get your head out of your x-box and realize there is a life outside your mommy's basement.
Desadarius Mica I think we all understand that he can mute it but I'm sorry I have to agree, the music is pretty damn shitty and corny. I love dogs and have rescued a dog or two but I wouldn't be playing this shit as I do it. Like c'mon, we know its a sad/happy moment but damn, nobody wants to hear corny music in the background of a video that's supposed to be about the dog. So take the stick out of your ass cause icemanroyal isn't saying abusing dogs is okay or even that he's stuck in his mommy's basement playing xbox (uncalled for).
I would really like to know the 113 people that disliked this video
Well, whoever rescued Duke has my thanks and admiration. From the bottom of my Heart, Thank You for rescuing Duke.
Chris Kavanagh duke unfortunately died of cancer he was suffering shortly after this video.... but the good news was it was in a forever home with people who loved him
Julien Cloutier
Well, at least he had love before he passed. Were you the one who rescued him?
no eldad hagar did but he provided that update on the original video... stomach cancer 10 months after rescue.
Julien Cloutier
So sad. Breaks my heart. But at least he was loved for a while.
all we can ask for eh? wish i could take care of some of these dogs he finds but 1 i live in canada and 2 my apartment is no pets
=*(
Beautiful story about loving things people are doing for lost or abandoned animals.
Why is ther 150 or so dislikes, cant understand why some people are just plain evil.
I disliked the sappy music...
Martin Nantel and I just disliked you stupidity!
Your*
how can you just take one and leave the other one there?
+Beautiful_Tragedy11 that's what Blazzer1166 meant you dumbass
+Shaun Pierce thank you... so sad :(
Damn this music. :(
Truth is calling you. This music brings forth the truth in you. God put the truth Inside you. It is your friend.
Absolutely. There are many videos I just don't watch because of the music. I suppose I could just mute it, but there is a sound track. You just can't hear it over the music.
Thank you sooooooooo much!! my heart broke when i saw how scared he was when the cage shut. Thank you so much for going through this trouble and saving this gorgeous amazing german shephard!
thank you to all those who have a caring heart and step in and do things like this.
Can you please give us an update,did duke get his forever home ?
+Maurice Fleury check out the Hope for Paws facebook page. They are the rescuers in this video. They might have information on him.
Yepp. Cried.
Canada and USA Rock No, nor do I need to be. :) And you?
Canada and USA Rock Can we just enjoy this beautiful video? Please? Look at that sweet little german shepherd. I have one myself, and they are amazing dogs that don't deserve what this one went through. Did we come here just argue over who does what? Let's face it, there is no way of proving ANYTHING on the internet. Sure, I can TELL you I'm fifteen. I can TELL you I have a dog. I can TELL you I have good grades. But how do you know? This is stupid. None of us should have been arguing in the first place, although I am really just a side character in this conversation.
Let's also consider this: I teared up too, because with how sweet this video was altogether combined with the song they used, who can blame me? But no one is going to call me out on it. Because I'm a f****** girl, and girls are allowed to cry, whenever they want. Girls are allowed to like whatever they want. What the hell? I mean, guys are held against specific things they have to like. If you're a guy that DOESN'T like first person shooter games, if you DON'T enjoy everything stereotyped to be manly, then society classifies you as gay, or girly, or as you say it “crybaby". So, he likes animals and a sweet video touched him. And? I'd say if you weren't touched by this video, you must have some sort of past with animals that took away your sympathy.
MimitehDragon I appreciate the reply, and you're right. Anyone can "SAY" anything they want online, but that wasn't my point. This ''person," for a lack of better words, thinks getting teary-eyed over a ''beautiful video,'' as you put it, is a "faggy, gay'' thing to do. MY point is, being in the military is one of the manliest things a guy can do in his life, in my humble opinion. But so what? You can't be a MAN, and cry too? That's the problem I had here. I love dogs, have had them since I was a kid, they helped me through tough times, lived with me through the happy times. "Man's best friend" is an understatement to me. Anyway, not to ramble on, but I thought I would TRY to get through to that guy. But since I couldn't, and it's a complete waste of time, and I'm sick of seeing hate comments on my post, I just decided to delete all of his, and most of the responses, dealing with him. Anyway, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
highmetalman6 Yeah. Sounds like a plan. :P Personally I've lived my life with some wonderful cats, and got my first dog a few months back. Always loved animals, though, any kind. (Except little yappy dogs. I HATE little yappy dogs.)
MimitehDragon Then don't get a Beagle... LoL, they NEVER shut up!! Haha.
dogs need to trust less, in fact, all animals do. if they are being tortured and are suffering today its not because they are weak, its because they are too naive and trust humans a lot. sad
You're comment angers me. You seem to just be under the assumption that they can break out of a psychological restraint. Its the same people who have been abused by people they have trusted, do think these people are naive do you think these people are sad? Maybe you should think a little more about the mind set of an animal or human first.
That's not true. Think about it like this (this is something I learned about the circus): when the elephants are being kept in training and upkeep, they have a chain around their feet so they can not escape. However, if you take the chain off of their feet, they will not run away. The elephants still think that they can't run away since they are used to not being able to do so. The same thing goes with animals that have gone through abuse; they truly believe that they can't do anything to change that.
You need to learn more about animals and not attribute human emotions to them. Animals do not have naivete.. they have instincts. Some have had those stunted and trained out of them and that is not their fault. It is also this characteristic of dogs that we value so much that many also abuse. Do not blame the animal, blame the human who has done this to them.
Duke knows NOW what love is! Blessings to all concerning please God. Thank you all.
You are a sweet lady for such kind words bless you.
I hate that you used that song sung by that woman now I'm in tears.
Someone left a bowl of Onions near me
+Matthew Ertle LOL ; )
my uncle and her stupid wife. have a little dog. and they dont take care of him. they tie him outside all day and night with no food just water. they dont shower him or take him to the vet.. if i call pet control will they come for him? hes just suffering
I don't know where you live... but that is neglect and abuse. Yes, if you are in the states, I know they will investigate it.
Debi W yea. i found out the wife let him go.. but my cousin found him like 5 blocks away. he didnt know she let him free.. now that poor thing sufferig again. idk why the fuck they get dogs and they dont take care of them. im going to go later if i see him outside im taking him without telling them. and taking him to animal hospital and see what they can do.
Be careful with that if you do. There are legal issues with doing that. I would - because for me, it's all about the animal. I did animal rescue for years. I've been shot at, stabbed and beat... to me, it was worth it. I can find ways to fight back. The poor dogs couldn't. God bless you! BTW - you'll also be on the hook for the hospital bill. Call the Humane Society or local country/city animal shelter and report abuse. Only problem, they're overloaded. Short staffed, calls often take weeks or months to get too and so many things can happen in such a long amount of time.
Debi W I BOUGHT THE DOG OF THEM. I FELT BAD FOR THAT LITTLE GUY.. NOW I HAVE 3 DOGS. AND GOOD THEY ARE GETTING ALONG..
cristiano ronaldo That is SO awesome!! They are lovers and sooo smart.
It hurts to see dogs sufferings.. Iam same time so happy for this.. God bless u people for what u do for animals, saving these souls... Tqvm.. God bless. Hope these souls find a great loving home also.. My prayers always for these animals.. 🙏
My heart feel their pains.. Left one alone makes u more feel so hard.. Thank you so much people for saving the soul.. God Bless..🙏💜
If there is Duke update please share out.. Thank you so much again😍
346 very evil people!! German Shepherds are the greatest!
yea german Shepard s are like the number 1 dog police use them I expect maybe a mutt but a german shepherd you still have to be careful because the last owner could of abuse it
Elijah Cobbs but if you love them they quickly realize it and can be trusted
manuela redding yea true
I have a "serra da estrela", a portuguese dog breed, which is considered a threat by italian people. But I can't resist to such cuteness. She's the most beautiful dog in the world, german shepherds and serra the estrela are both amazing!!! Mine has blue eyes just like a husky xD and her fur texture makes me remember german shepherds.
Tistisorp Yunkirsp sounds amazing!
did hope for paws give. you the right to use there video because your add money should go to them
U HORRIBLE PEOPLE U MIGHT OF SAVED ONE BUT WHAT ABOUT DUKE
+wolfbloodqueen 1 Did your parents have any children that lived?
+officialcrabsomatic ur not saying it died are u?
My little brother..who now has an address in heaven is smiling down on you and Duke.. this was the breed he so loved and I see him in heaven caring for those dogs who are waiting for their humans to join them.. God watch over duke and the many others like him.. may they all find a loving home.
God bless you for doing that..
Stolen from Hope for paws
+boaterbil yes, i see the lucky leash.
+boaterbil Not stolen, shared. Links and credit to HfP & Eldad.
+boaterbil They want their videos to be shared.
Is this video fake? Was that guy doing all this his own dog just to produce this video? Have a hard time believing you can earn a dog's trust after tricking him into confinement. Research an organization before you donate money.
Skeptical and cynical, way to go.
Actually he has a ton of videos of rescuing dogs, cats and even a donkey. Check his rescue videos at Eldad Hagar.
CCRider100
Gullible and naieve. Wanna buy some moon rocks from me?
in reality, the dog was probably in the cage for a few hours, it would of taken a long time to get the dog to trust them, they just showed a few minutes of it for entertainments sake.
The Westside GS Rescue is accredited and does a great job saving GSD's - as well as providing medical and adoption. You should definitely research!!!
why would he give a stray dog to a woman?
Because she was with the German Shepard rescue agency.She was the one who called Eldad for help with rescuing Duke.
Notice how he relaxes when she shows up. It's true that dogs are instinctively at ease with women. You can always tell the ones that were abandoned but NOT abused.
pinz2022 Don't be so stupid. Dogs relate to people regardless of gender. It's how they're treated that matters. Women can abuse dogs too, you sexist fool.
K Mahoney
he wasnt trying to be. it IS true. i dont know why dogs tend to do that. maybe because we have different scents?If you were a female and approached an adult dog they arent ass alert as they would be with a full grown adult male. There is nothing sexist about it. it just happens. I have worked as a volunteer for my local humane society. So I have a bit of experience. They arent thinking about "this dude is violent than this girl" no. They do not see it like that. Its just how they are. True it varies but hey.t. Now He said "instinctively". Key words. Hell in the animal kingdom it gets like that ESPECIALLY with humans.Might as well call everyone sexist. Think about it. I huge male coming up to some women may have them on guard mentally, a woman on the other hand, not so much.Some women approach men if they need help with something more so than a female, and so on. Its just primarily based on experience,
K Mahoney
he didnt say anything about "dogs dont relate to men" at all. neither did he say anything like "all men are violent, women are the most gentle etc. I dont get how you can read sexist from that comment. Calm down. Not everyone's motives surround sexism.
Donating now!!!!!! (and still bawling my eyes out)...
Thank you ALWAYS for every 'baby' you have saved Eldad. :)
Okay....I'm crying, honestly how much did Duke just want to be rescued...Such a handsome boy!!!!
