I am so in love with this guy....and I've only know him for a few days! You'll be seeing LOTS of him on my channel as we build a life together. Do you have a shelter dog? Any experience with a Border Collie? I would love your suggestions, comments, advice on how to make this transition as smooth as possible for both of us :)
Only just seen this so I really you hope you have settled in together I am living in England and have had Border Collies for many years if you need any advice only to happy to share what I have learnt over the years
No, I am a dog lover, I hate cruelty with animals, I would love to have a dogs but my landlord dont allow animals so I hope to be able to buy a house one days to have a couple 🙂
He doesn’t seem like we traditionally call a border collie in the UK they are usually black and white and are usually working dogs used in the farming community to herd sheep, intelligent and very loyal, as someone said “a happy collie is a tired collie” I’m happy to be corrected of course
Nuris M. AGREED! You are so right! Dogs do Only have a Very SHORT TIME here. PLEASE give them the love , good food and good home they want and need! Thanks to everyone who is a BIG SOFTY ANIMAL LOVER. There’s a special place in heaven for you and your pets to be together and happy forever ♾
I adopted a cat who had been in humane society for 7 years. He was 2 weeks old when he came there. I couldn't let that continue. He's a lovely cat - been home for 4 weeks.
@@gardenjoy5223 .....also think of all the 'alley cats' that ppl dump. I've never needed to adopt a cat from a shelter bc the alley are literally flooded with non spayed cats that are banished to live outside. Their very short lives are full of suffering.
@Charlene Nosugref We think a lot alike. All my furbabies were ferals when I trapped them....some before they had kittens. Like u I had to pay for their spay/neutering. The kitties need more persons like u who are caring & compassionate....esp toward animals.
We just got a dog that had been in the shelter for 9 months. He is a wonderful fellow. Took about 3 weeks full-day work to get him out of his shell. So worth it.
Difference is she loves dogs some people just get bored and go get one and then take it back if it doesn't do what they wanted to do I have never been without a dog until 4 months ago when I had to put my last one down
I adopted a severely abused dog 3 1/2 years ago. She changed my life in the most amazing ways! It took 3 years for her to fully relax... now, she doesnt wake up for treats even!! I cant imagine life without her... i saved her and she saved me!
It is so odd that a dogs or a cat can fill that huge HOLE in our hearts & leave footprints we never expected to fill! God is good to us by getting the right animals to the right person...it just seems to “work out”. I believe there is a plan that for all of us...for the lonely pet & for those of us who have been left behind with our broken hearts! Give a pet a chance!!
The only reason I can think of for no one wanting him is that Border Collie or Smooth Collie blood. They can be very intense and not to everyone's taste. But also, they seemed to be fated to be together. Fate was just waiting for her to be ready to get another dog!
I wondered the same thing. I think the reason why he was in the shelter so long was that she was waiting for this wonderful family to adopt him. I truly believe it was destiny.
He was being held back for the family who found him, just at the right moment for him and for them. God works strangely but He is always loving us. All His creations are precious in His sight. He was watching over Pollux.
This is why shelters need foster families to take dogs in and teach them how to be family pets, so they can be calm and sociable, and ready for adoption. This is also why everyone should #AdoptNotShop It's amazing that you guys took in this lovely boy, but he should never have gotten to this point of stress and emotional neglect in the first place
You are so right. Shelters do need foster families, dog walkers, and grassy areas for dogs to run, and more people like this great family who were willing to give a scared dog a home.
Shelters, rescues, fosters, others need to inform others of how much fosters are needed. I know we assume everyone Knows, but many do not. Also, it's Always a plus if there are other pets in the home. Beautiful family, Thank you fur taking in such a worthy dog who needed all your families Love & Patience.
Most dangerous thing you can do… go into a shelter or go to a shelter web page “just to look”. You wind up with a dog! I’ve had a few last resort dogs. We adopted Z the day before his appointment with the needle. Z was a pain for the first few months; he ran away, chased elk, got skunked and full of porcupine quills multiple times. And now, he is the best dog of our lives.
We wound up with two and already had a dog. They are all passed now, we only have one, but having 3 dogs was wonderful, a lot of work, but we miss having a pack.
When you know you know. That is a member of your family you didn't know existed until you saw that picture. Thank you so much for listening to your instincts!
All of my pets have been shelter rescues. There is a learning curve at first, but I am sure you will find Pollux to be a most faithful and beautiful companion.
Pollux is my 4th shelter rescue....with the others all being Miniature Schnauzers. I'm figuring out the Border Collie part and they seem to be an interesting breed. Lots for me to learn!
WHERE DID HE get the name POLLUX from ? Did he already have that name , or DID YOU name him? IF the shelter named him , personally I would have RENAMED him if possible , I think it depends on HOW OLD they are , because IF they they are used to one name , then it may COFUSE them as it's not like a PERSON changing their name , as you can call yourself what you want , you CANT change your SURNAME unless it is by DEEDPOLL or GET MARRIED
This warms my heart. I am a rescue dog person, foster parent and shelter volunteer. Thank you so much for opening your home to Pollux. Just remember the rules of 3s. 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn your routine and 3 months to start to be comfortable. Look forward to many happy updates. Taking a dog that has been in the shelter his entire life is s huge undertaking. Bless you…..Again my thanks from all of us rescue folks.
Poor dog, all his life at the refuge, thank you for giving him a family, a wonderful and so loving mother and a wonderful father, the whole family is super nice, thank you
He looks like he has some Smooth Fox Terrier in him. Long, slim muzzle and colouring are right. They are the naughtiest, cleverest little dogs and so full of fun. Enjoy your gorgeous boy!
Such a shame that the shelter didnt take time to socialize him when he was a little puppy. Then he wouldnt have been so distant with people. He is lucky to have your family. Enjoy
This just popped up in my feed as suggested......over a year after its posted. Yet what an incredibly sweet video. As a doggie mom myself it just makes my heart sing. He wasn't in the animal shelter lost....he was there waiting for your beautiful family. So happy for you and Pollux.
i only realised this when i read this comment, but i did notice that his eyes look so similar to my rough collie’s eyes. edit: his bark is also very similar.
I was going to say this as well too till I saw someone else wrote it. At the end, you described my smoothie to a T. The soft ears, velvety hair his ears any collie owner would die for, natural and perfect. Collies are very smart, laid back, less crazy than a boarder collie and love their people.
This is the sweetest story. Thank you for saving this pup, thank you for sharing with us and reminding us of our responsibilities when it comes to paying it forward.
Thank you for doing this. It took courage because there were so many unknowns. You could have gotten a dog that was totally messed up. The poor thing. His whole life in the shelter. You saved him. So nice to see kindness in a often very unkind world.
He's a beautiful dog. It doesn't make sense that no one would adopt him. Unless, he needed to sit there an wait for the day that YOU were coming for him. Best of luck to all of you!
What a lovely story! I teared up several times. I bet there are many just like him waiting for a special family like yours to adopt and love them. I think I need to follow you just to see him again! Thank you for taking him home!!! ❤
When you said you don’t know why you looked on FB page right before Christmas, I know why,... your guardian angel whispered I your ear that this creature needed a home. Just wait. Pollux is going to give something wonderful in your lives! GOD bless!
So , having rescued a racing greyhound it’s really cool watching him learn to be a pet. It’s been a real treat watching him learn and adapt. 4years and he’s still getting the hang of it. Lotsa luck, it’s worth it.
Dogs are a great gift to us. I had my little Jonny pass away a few months ago. I still have not completely recovered. Dogs aren't people but they are precious little lives that have feelings and love us. I think of all the precious memories with my dog and I will always cherish them. Dogs are simply wonderful.
I cried my eyes out for 2 days because we couldn’t get him due to the shelter being closed for Christmas. But all is well now and Pollux is doing wonderfully 💗
We need more people in the world who will just go in and take these sweet animals who have been in the shelters for so long. Thank you for giving him a chance. Truly seeing that he needed a home, and taking him in. My sweet Link (border collie mix) had been in the shelter for two and a half years. He's been abandoned at a truck stop, lived at a shelter, adopted and returned twice, and lived so long in the shelter. He was labeled a red sticker dog, and we were told no cats, no dogs, and no children for him. We took him home and he is great with other dogs and kids. He has a couple of quirks (he is protective of me), but honestly he is one of the BEST dogs I've ever had.🐾💙
Aw, that's so cute. Thank you. We need more people who adopt the dogs with stories, the ones who need it most. There are plenty dogs out there with tragic stories of being returned, abused, and neglected. They really need love. It's a shame how people reject these dogs for their stories, so I'm happy you took the time to give Link love! 🐾❤️ Also, if he's your profile picture... HE'S ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! Does he run a lot? 😂❤️🐾
watching this with tears in my eyes, I'm laying next to this little angel our family just adopted from Puerto Rico and is slowly coming out of her shell. Watching videos for tips and stories about fearful rescue dogs so I can be the best human to her.
I just found this video and also just lost my big Pyrenees a few months back. He was so much like this dog! He once turned over a cake platter on my counter and ate a whole Angel food cake! Like you, I had no idea dogs would countersurf! Thanks for the laughs and the memories of my sweet boy.
Oh my! I saw Pollux at an adoption event at Pet Smart! I wanted to take him home but I recognized how tightly wound and fearful he was and did not think I had the skills to handle him and I already have 2 big dogs. My heart broke for him. I am so glad to hear that someone finally gave him a chance. If he is part border collie you can connect with him during play time. Maybe eventually he will play ball with you. I had 2 border collies in the past and they are non-stop energy. That may explain why Pollux is not well adjusted. He was not abused at the shelter but he did not have enough avenues to express his high energy so it turned inward into fear and anxiety. Those walks you take him on are therapeutic. Keep it up. I am cheering for you and for Pollux! THANKS for sharing!
Oh Debra!!!! Pollux has transformed into the sweetest boy...and in just the few days we've had him. He still does have a lot of energy but he's using it to play with our other dog and chew on toys. We're going on long walks every day and he is getting used to the sounds in our house. Every morning, he wakes up better than the day before. I'm glad to know you saw him and all was well. We are loving every minute with him!
What a beautiful, sweet dog! Such a sad story with a really happy ending. Pollux is blessed to have such a wonderful, caring family. Thanks for sharing him with us!
God knew Pollux was waiting on you! What a blessing! His rescue was yours too! God bless you all! “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened”. (Anatole France)
As an animal lover who has been crossposting cats and dogs on social media for years, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving this angel a home. May God bless you! ❤😇
You have a whole new look 👀!!!! I love women who are brave enough to go gray. Pollux is precious and has no idea how lucky he has gotten and made this family.
God bless you! I have 2 rescues myself. The last one came into the shelter 7:30pm the night before I went there and she was already scheduled to be euthanized because of major medical issues and being a senior dog. I got everything taken care of. They said she will eventually go blind, I can deal with that as she is such a sweet baby.
Oh my goodness!! So glad to know she has a good home now. I adopted a senior Miniature Schnauzer....and he lived with us for 4 years before he passed. And he was the sweetest boy
To be honest... I feel so sorry for "ugly" dogs that no one adopts. However, Pollus is beautiful. Hard to believe that no one adopted him before. A long wait but worth it !!
On top of that he came into the shelter as a puppy. Must've been skittish from the start. The shy , reserved dogs seem to have trouble getting adopted.
I had to stop and finally watch and here I sit crying. I am so thrilled at the love your daughters have for animals, it's obvious from the box opening. Pollux makes me think of a blind man getting his vision for the first time. What a sight and experience. Bless your hearts for giving him a home.
This brought tears to my eyes. So sad that he spent so long in the shelter as a puppy, I thought they were the first to go. I’m so glad you adopted him. I’ll be watching more of HIS videos.
We rescued our pit bull Cinnamon from Detroit. She was thrown out of a moving car as a puppy. She was scared of car rides & men. Especially if they wore hats or hoodies. She’d bark & growl & her hair would stand up. She was also very timid & shy coming home too. But after lots of time & lots of loving. She’s a totally different dog. We had a pug that taught her how to dog lol.
Sounds just like my pitbull Ronnie. I hated pitbulls at first, but now she's is my best friend. She had a really hard life. Was found emaciated in an abandoned warehouse and was abused. She's spoiled now and overly loved. She is my shadow and never leaves my side. Thank you for what you did for your dog
A coworker rescued a pitbull that was the "bait dog" for dog fights. She (the dog) is scared of men in hats and hoodies too. Glad your dog was lucky to find you and a loving home.
I love Pitts. Both mine are rescued. Bear was given up at the age of 10 months because he was submissive. Buddy was rescued from a hoarding situation where he was found in a shed that he had been in since 3 months old. He was 13 month old when rescued. Buddy had to be potty trained and learn everything. He's an exceptional dog. They are, and they both are my boys. So, from sleeping in a shed to sleeping on my bed, ....he's got it pretty good now.
"All good things comes to those who wait" is exactly true in this case for this cute dog, He waited 491 hard days at the shelter and got adopted by the best loving Family Ever.
He's such a beautiful dog. It's amazing the poor animals that don't get adopted. People just don't stop to think how terrified they are to be at the shelter. People expect to walk in and see this super cute dog all happy and wanting to play, but they've been in jail, and they're scared. Your family is amazing! Thank you for taking a chance on this guy.
My last 3 dogs have all been rescue dogs; I had to put one down after 16 1/2 yrs, he gave us 12 years of love and laughs and mayhem and will be missed forever. The last two will be around for about 10 and 8 respectively. They are lots of fun, every one different from the previous one, each one with their own charm and qualities. I only wish I could adopt more. Good save, Pollux!
@J E I negatively judge people who own dogs in general. I was attacked by a dog as a child and have developed a general disliking for the creatures. My family has owned many dogs but I do not develop the same level of relationship with them that I do with my cats.
God does work in mysterious ways! My 18 yo chihuahua mix male friend passed last nite. We only had him for 2 yrs (owner was going to "put him down" cuz he was old) but what a joy he brought into our lives! Watching your video helped heal my 💔 a bit seeing how U & your loving family took a chance on a Rollux. God Bless Ya'll & I'll keep watching for updates on you & your fur babies.
He's going to do just fine with this wonderful family in their beautiful home. He's being given the patience and love he needs to thrive. Heartwarming!
We took on a dog who had been in the local dog rescue centre for nearly two years, nobody wanted her because she had health problems, but she turned into the most faithful friend for over 16 years and repaid every moment and the money spent on her care with love and devotion.
I'm so happy for Pollux that he has a wonderful family. 491 days is a long time to wait but in this case it was worth it because Pollux now has the best home he could ever have. That is obvious.
You’re just plain WONDERFUL, KIND, LOVING PEOPLE... We need many, many more people like you on this world! Thank u for sharing this video full of love, humor, and kindness... you got a new subscriber and fan!
I have lots of time to spend with him since it's winter and our business is seasonal. He is adjusting more every single day. I can see progress literally every morning. It's fascinating to watch!
I rescued an unsocialized cat 1 1/2 years ago. We named her Gracie. Gracie came from a hoarders house with 2 dozen other cats. So when we adopted her, I knew I had my work cut out for me. But as an "empty nester" I had plenty of time. So me & my other rescue cat, Chloe, have slowly broken down her defenses. She barely let me pet her at first, now I give her belly rubs. She's still skittish, probably always will be, but she now knows she has a home, is loved, and she doesn't startle at every little noise. Gracie's favorite thing is to lay on the windowsill and watch the baby birds that live in the eaves above us come and go all day long. Gracie has also just learned to play fetch by watching her big sister Chloe & I play it all the time. Her favorite toy is any sort of soft fake mouse toy. So, keep being patient, love wins every time. 💓💓
He's great! Especially considering he has been in the shelter for so long. Adoption is always the right choice and especially of dogs who have been for a long time in the shelter and senior dogs too.
Omg! I loved that you adopted a dog nobody wanted! It’s so sad he had to spend all that time in the shelter, I can’t wait to see his progress.i subscribe to your channel. By the way you are so beautiful! Love your hair!
This video was recommended by RUclips for the first time today. (I'm a channel hopper and I watch a bunch of rescue videos.) I just wanted to say thank you for taking a chance on Pollux. While different in many ways, our dog, Maxwell Smart was in the shelter for a very long time too. Almost 18 months. He'd also been severely abused requiring major surgeries and then was returned to the shelter by his family of 3 years when the place they moved into didn't allow dogs. It's affected him in ways that it looks like Pollux might be dealing with too. You mentioned that he doesn't like when your husband wears a hat. My husband let's his hair get pretty shaggy between cuts. The first time that Maxxie saw him with short hair he freaked out and started barking at him. It took him about 10 minutes to calm down. He has his issues, but it's all worth it. The love that you receive from an animal who knows what it's like to not have a family, but finally gets their forever family is is unlike any other.
First time seeing this during quarantine. Poor baby has to learn to be a dog, a pet, a family member and eventually your protector and best friend. Looks like he found the perfect family. Thank you so much.
I got my dog from the local shelter. They couldn’t tell me anything about his long term past but he had been taken home 3 times and returned. He’s 120lbs. He’s great on a leash , he was 99% house trained. He is a great dog. The minute he walked in the door him and my other dog were best friends. Never had a problem. He’s not food aggressive at all. I can even reach in his bowl and take his food out of his bowl with my hand. He doesn’t bother the cats. All around he’s been a wonderful dog. He’s like velcro to me but I love that about him. I have no idea why anyone would return him but I’m glad they did. He’s in his forever home now and he’s a perfect fit.
Sabastian Taylor that’s amazing !!! I got all my cAts from my local shelter . My kola was in a shelter for nine months was told not to adopt bc he would have to many issues and expensive teeth stuff to fix , I didn’t care , he has been the best thing that has ever happened to me , my life my world and to think someone declawed then threw this beautiful loving cat out and he was found with eye infection and so skinny he almost died , makes me so mad at people out there !!! But to hear such great stores like yours, brings back belief that there are still angels among us !!! Thank you for adopting from your shelter !! I believe animals are Angels from heaven !
I just saw this now for the first time. What a nice dog! Thanks for rescuing him. Who says dogs don't smile? I think he's very happy in his new life. Maybe he's a bit afraid it's all just a dream, lol! I could tell straight off the has some collie in him. Can't wait to see the rest of your videos.
I can't believe this beautiful dog was never adopted until now. Thank you and God bless you for giving this gorgeous boy a chance at a happy, healthy life! Dogs are the most noble creatures on the planet! God bless them all. Wishing you and your family many wonderful years together!
When he was running with your hubby you could see his Border Collie herding instincts kick - in. He looks like he - and your hubby - will be a great dog agility - team. Give it a go, of you guys can. Hugs from Zambia, Africa.
We adopted our Great Dane/Mastiff mix, Ziva, from the shelter on post when we were stationed in Louisiana 7 years ago. She knew how to be a dog but because the only family she’d known left her behind, she wasn’t ready to completely trust us. I had just had a baby and we had just gotten our Great Dane puppy Leonidas from the breeder (about a month or two before getting her) but I was determined not to let her stay there, I couldn’t stand the thought and she was HUGE (I love big dogs…like really big dogs), literally the biggest sweetheart you’d ever meet, came from a family with children and was raised with kids. Shelter dogs are so special!! Pollux seems like such a sweetheart and I’m super late but I can’t wait to catch up on his adventures and see how he grows and comes into his inner doggie! Thank you for sharing this journey! 400+ days is so sad! I was distraught by how long Ziva was there (and it definitely wasn’t THAT long)!
He reminds me so much of our rescue we adopted 2 1/2 years ago. She’s a little less anxious but she is still shy and scared of new people and other dogs. We originally came early one morning to look at a German Shepard puppy they advertised on the shelters Facebook page. Someone had gotten there before they opened and adopted him right away. We decided why not look around while we were there. I noticed a dog there that reminded me of our last rescue who had passed the year before. All the shelter knew was that she was part Akita. She’s a beautiful dog and her brother had been adopted a month prior. I remember her standing out at the shelter bc she was so scared and tried to hide in the back of her space. She had the saddest eyes while the other dogs were at the door and barking loud with curiosity. It seemed like she had given up at that point so we eventually came back and adopted her with no hesitation. Every moment with her makes me smile and see life as something that should be appreciated. She’s a reminder to me that there’s still innocence and good in the world. No matter what I’m going through, just seeing her will remind me that everything will be okay and my sadness or fear just melts away. She also reminds me of a deer. She prances like one and loves to run very fast. She still gets anxious from time to time but we always remind her that she’s okay and loved. It’s a wonderful thing to be able to share your happiness and love with an animal who may have never experienced it.
Gosh, I really appreciate what you've done. Poor animals all over struggle to find the love that they deserve--especially shelter dogs. I'm so happy that she got to give you the love you deserved, and that you could do the same for her! ❤️
Pollox also looks part greyhound with his nose and thinner body. I love him. We always take animal shelter dogs and cats. They are the sweetest and most loyal animals in the world.
I am so in love with this guy....and I've only know him for a few days! You'll be seeing LOTS of him on my channel as we build a life together. Do you have a shelter dog? Any experience with a Border Collie? I would love your suggestions, comments, advice on how to make this transition as smooth as possible for both of us :)
Only just seen this so I really you hope you have settled in together I am living in England and have had Border Collies for many years if you need any advice only to happy to share what I have learnt over the years
My dog is a australian sheepherd mix from a local shelter - romania dog sellers catched by the police and they under arrest now !
No, I am a dog lover, I hate cruelty with animals, I would love to have a dogs but my landlord dont allow animals so I hope to be able to buy a house one days to have a couple 🙂
He also looks like he has. JRT ( Jack Russell Terrier )
He doesn’t seem like we traditionally call a border collie in the UK they are usually black and white and are usually working dogs used in the farming community to herd sheep, intelligent and very loyal, as someone said “a happy collie is a tired collie” I’m happy to be corrected of course
Dogs have a short time in this world, please give them a warm and loving home for the rest of their lives.
In the scheme of things and comparable to our universe, we all do.
😇😇😇
and kitties too :D
Nuris M. AGREED! You are so right!
Dogs do Only have a Very SHORT TIME here. PLEASE give them the love , good food and good home they want and need! Thanks to everyone who is a BIG SOFTY ANIMAL LOVER.
There’s a special place in heaven for you and your pets to be together and happy forever ♾
Dave Martani For his dogs to live that long shows they were Totally loved and super well cared for. GOOD JOB!
I adopted a cat who had been in humane society for 7 years. He was 2 weeks old when he came there. I couldn't let that continue. He's a lovely cat - been home for 4 weeks.
Thank you for adopting your beloved cat!!! He won the lottery! Sending lots of Love and Light to both of you💓
7 years!? Poor cat. You are a wonderful person, to choose that cat!
@@gardenjoy5223 .....also think of all the 'alley cats' that ppl dump. I've never needed to adopt a cat from a shelter bc the alley are literally flooded with non spayed cats that are banished to live outside. Their very short lives are full of suffering.
Bless you and kitty.
@Charlene Nosugref We think a lot alike. All my furbabies were ferals when I trapped them....some before they had kittens. Like u I had to pay for their spay/neutering. The kitties need more persons like u who are caring & compassionate....esp toward animals.
I started crying happy tears when the girls unrolled the gift.
Me too!!!!! ❤️
So did I 💕
saaaaame :,)
Me too! Such a moving story. You are very nice people and Pollux looks so happy!!!
Same 😁❤
We just got a dog that had been in the shelter for 9 months. He is a wonderful fellow. Took about 3 weeks full-day work to get him out of his shell. So worth it.
He’s beautiful can’t believe it took so long for him to get adopted
I know right!!!
Difference is she loves dogs some people just get bored and go get one and then take it back if it doesn't do what they wanted to do I have never been without a dog until 4 months ago when I had to put my last one down
Maybe God wanted him to be with this nice lady
Probably his fearfulness & shyness turned people off.
yeah, he‘s really lucky cause some dogs i saw were in the shelter for like 5 years
I adopted a severely abused dog 3 1/2 years ago. She changed my life in the most amazing ways! It took 3 years for her to fully relax... now, she doesnt wake up for treats even!! I cant imagine life without her... i saved her and she saved me!
Thank you. Wish you both lots of love xxxx
I got a puppy who was not taken care of properly and has some wounds. She is still recovering.
Thanks for saving
Funny how we think we're saving them & its actually us who gets the saving!
It is so odd that a dogs or a cat can fill that huge HOLE in our hearts & leave footprints we never expected to fill! God is good to us by getting the right animals to the right person...it just seems to “work out”. I believe there is a plan that for all of us...for the lonely pet & for those of us who have been left behind with our broken hearts! Give a pet a chance!!
The fact you adopted this dog tells me you are a good person.
Exactly. The fact that they have to be EXTREMELY patient with this dog, says a lot about their character ❤
Well little by little you know her .remember her life was not easy !!!! 💁🏻♀️🇺🇸🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️
Thank you for adopting this little miracle baby, Pollux. He is just a lost baby. Animals are babies. They need to always be protected and loved.
Can't imagine why anybody didn't want him, he is a big fur baby. Bless your heart.
Ζωή Συμεωνωφ in this video she will explain why nobody wanted this dog
The only reason I can think of for no one wanting him is that Border Collie or Smooth Collie blood. They can be very intense and not to everyone's taste. But also, they seemed to be fated to be together. Fate was just waiting for her to be ready to get another dog!
High energy, anxious. It's sad, but I can see why. Few people are equipped to deal with other people's huge mistakes. I'm glad it worked out.
I wondered the same thing. I think the reason why he was in the shelter so long was that she was waiting for this wonderful family to adopt him. I truly believe it was destiny.
So cute! He won the lottery when you adopted him.
I said the same thing when my sister adopted a chihuahua mix. Zoe won the lottery!!
That Maxy looks like a great one too
Yes he did.
Bless your hearts for giving this big baby a home... he is so cute... love him
Thank you so much for giving that precious boy a good home. He'll be so grateful!!!😊
I adopted a dog no one wanted too. She was in the shelter for 8 years. Her whole life. Great dog!!
Bless you ❤
You're a hero thanks to you n god bless you both happily.
8 years!!!! Aw, so happy the dog finally found a home!!
Thank you SO much for doing that! It is not always sweet and easy, but there is nothing kinder than giving someone lonely and helpless a loving home
Omg. 8 years. That's incredibly terrible.
He loves his mama, he knows who saved him.
God bless you for caring and giving him a home.
Wonderful woman!
Im so happy god sent you for this wonderful fur baby!
Thankyou for being his new mum
🙏
Thank you for adding Pollux to your family. He is in good and loving hands now. God bless your family!! 🥰❤️
Why would no one want him he’s so handsome just a ball of perfection. He’s such a blessed dog you were meant to be his family.
He was being held back for the family who found him, just at the right moment for him and for them. God works strangely but He is always loving us. All His creations are precious in His sight. He was watching over Pollux.

Love you Lisa!
This is why shelters need foster families to take dogs in and teach them how to be family pets, so they can be calm and sociable, and ready for adoption. This is also why everyone should #AdoptNotShop It's amazing that you guys took in this lovely boy, but he should never have gotten to this point of stress and emotional neglect in the first place
Exactly.
You are so right. Shelters do need foster families, dog walkers, and grassy areas for dogs to run, and more people like this great family who were willing to give a scared dog a home.
Shelters, rescues, fosters, others need to inform others of how much fosters are needed. I know we assume everyone Knows, but many do not. Also, it's Always a plus if there are other pets in the home. Beautiful family, Thank you fur taking in such a worthy dog who needed all your families Love & Patience.
You have words of wisdom
Adopt not shop
He couldn't have found a more loving, accepting home. Lovely people with big hearts.
Love your family...
Most dangerous thing you can do… go into a shelter or go to a shelter web page “just to look”.
You wind up with a dog!
I’ve had a few last resort dogs. We adopted Z the day before his appointment with the needle.
Z was a pain for the first few months; he ran away, chased elk, got skunked and full of porcupine quills multiple times.
And now, he is the best dog of our lives.
God repays blessings
We wound up with two and already had a dog. They are all passed now, we only have one, but having 3 dogs was wonderful, a lot of work, but we miss having a pack.
Or a loving cat!!
not dangerous its love
When you know you know. That is a member of your family you didn't know existed until you saw that picture. Thank you so much for listening to your instincts!
That's exactly what it is the same thing happened to me with my pitbull . Have a dog your self Amanda ?
All of my pets have been shelter rescues. There is a learning curve at first, but I am sure you will find Pollux to be a most faithful and beautiful companion.
Pollux is my 4th shelter rescue....with the others all being Miniature Schnauzers. I'm figuring out the Border Collie part and they seem to be an interesting breed. Lots for me to learn!
The BEST ever
WHERE DID HE get the name POLLUX from ? Did he already have that name , or DID YOU name him? IF the shelter named him , personally I would have RENAMED him if possible , I think it depends on HOW OLD they are , because IF they they are used to one name , then it may COFUSE them as it's not like a PERSON changing their name , as you can call yourself what you want , you CANT change your SURNAME unless it is by DEEDPOLL or GET MARRIED
I love how gentle you are with him letting him come out of his shell in his own time. BEAUTIFUL
Why do American women SCREAM ? We English are not like that .
@@valerieobrien5521 it's our freedom showing.
Agree! Me too! Its really wonderful to see someone being so gentle! Melts my heart
@@valerieobrien5521 we scream because we can were strong women

😂
Breaks my heart. I’m so glad there’s people like you. Be patient with him.
He's a good looking dog. I'm surprised he spent that much time in the Shelter.
I thought the same
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ADOPTING THIS FURBABY AND LOVING HIM UNCONDITIONALLY.
You have a heart of gold- can’t thank you enough for giving him a home and helping him -I really enjoyed this video - so heartwarming!!
Agree. He's beautiful!
This warms my heart. I am a rescue dog person, foster parent and shelter volunteer. Thank you so much for opening your home to Pollux. Just remember the rules of 3s. 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn your routine and 3 months to start to be comfortable. Look forward to many happy updates. Taking a dog that has been in the shelter his entire life is s huge undertaking. Bless you…..Again my thanks from all of us rescue folks.
Poor dog, all his life at the refuge, thank you for giving him a family, a wonderful and so loving mother and a wonderful father, the whole family is super nice, thank you
Thanks for watching! Pollux is still adjusting to our home...but is getting more comfortable every day. He is such a sweetie!
He looks like he has some Smooth Fox Terrier in him. Long, slim muzzle and colouring are right. They are the naughtiest, cleverest little dogs and so full of fun. Enjoy your gorgeous boy!
Such a shame that the shelter didnt take time to socialize him when he was a little puppy. Then he wouldnt have been so distant with people. He is lucky to have your family. Enjoy
Karen S This!!!! Soooo important! I’ve been volunteering at my shelter since I was 16 and am now turning 20. It’s such a fulfilling thing to do!
They probably didn't HAVE time because of a limited amount of staff and wanting to help as many dogs as possible.
I am literally wiping away tears as I ugly cry while my rescue dog sleeps under my blanket with me and my toddler.
You and your family are amazing. Thank you for rescuing him and helping him learn how to be a dog.
This just popped up in my feed as suggested......over a year after its posted. Yet what an incredibly sweet video. As a doggie mom myself it just makes my heart sing. He wasn't in the animal shelter lost....he was there waiting for your beautiful family. So happy for you and Pollux.
Qas
He looks like a Smooth Collie. Thank you so much for adopting him and giving him a amazing home ❤️🙂
i only realised this when i read this comment, but i did notice that his eyes look so similar to my rough collie’s eyes.
edit: his bark is also very similar.
Yes, and smooth collies make some of the best therapy dogs
Smoothies... best dogs ever!!!
I have a collie jack x n she's my unofficial therapy dog n I her therapy hooman 😄
I was going to say this as well too till I saw someone else wrote it. At the end, you described my smoothie to a T. The soft ears, velvety hair his ears any collie owner would die for, natural and perfect. Collies are very smart, laid back, less crazy than a boarder collie and love their people.
He is an intelligent dog, a fast learner, a genius
All that time in the shelter paid off. Pollux got the best most loving family!!!
I adopted a cat the same way, and he is with me 8 yrs..and never give up on him. He is the boss.
cool
I LOVE the daughter’s reactions. That is exactly how my daughters would react, thank goodness.
He’s learning to be a dog in a human’s world. Awesome that you adopted him. He is adorable
This is the sweetest story. Thank you for saving this pup, thank you for sharing with us and reminding us of our responsibilities when it comes to paying it forward.
This is such a nice video. It's a feel good video in a time that we all need it. Thank you!
I agree what a lovely family.... Lucky dog....
Way too much gloom and doom. This story make my heart do a happy dance
Thank you for doing this. It took courage because there were so many unknowns. You could have gotten a dog that was totally messed up. The poor thing. His whole life in the shelter. You saved him. So nice to see kindness in a often very unkind world.
He's a beautiful dog. It doesn't make sense that no one would adopt him. Unless, he needed to sit there an wait for the day that YOU were coming for him. Best of luck to all of you!
What a lovely story! I teared up several times. I bet there are many just like him waiting for a special family like yours to adopt and love them. I think I need to follow you just to see him again! Thank you for taking him home!!! ❤
When you said you don’t know why you looked on FB page right before Christmas, I know why,... your guardian angel whispered I your ear that this creature needed a home. Just wait. Pollux is going to give something wonderful in your lives! GOD bless!
Pollux is an angel!! ❤️
He's TENSE but thank you for giving him a chance
Dipala Chauhan you could see how overwhelmed he was at first walking out to them lol
@@Ashley-on4ln Yeah, that was a bit much all at once lol. He tolerated it though.
So , having rescued a racing greyhound it’s really cool watching him learn to be a pet. It’s been a real treat watching him learn and adapt. 4years and he’s still getting the hang of it. Lotsa luck, it’s worth it.
Dogs are a great gift to us. I had my little Jonny pass away a few months ago. I still have not completely recovered. Dogs aren't people but they are precious little lives that have feelings and love us. I think of all the precious memories with my dog and I will always cherish them. Dogs are simply wonderful.
“Told Randy we were going to get Polluck.” That brought tears to my eyes - THANK YOU for sharing and caring!
I cried my eyes out for 2 days because we couldn’t get him due to the shelter being closed for Christmas. But all is well now and Pollux is doing wonderfully 💗
We need more people in the world who will just go in and take these sweet animals who have been in the shelters for so long. Thank you for giving him a chance. Truly seeing that he needed a home, and taking him in. My sweet Link (border collie mix) had been in the shelter for two and a half years. He's been abandoned at a truck stop, lived at a shelter, adopted and returned twice, and lived so long in the shelter. He was labeled a red sticker dog, and we were told no cats, no dogs, and no children for him. We took him home and he is great with other dogs and kids. He has a couple of quirks (he is protective of me), but honestly he is one of the BEST dogs I've ever had.🐾💙
Bless your heart!!! You are a hero!!!
Is he your pfp? If so he is ADORABLE!!!
Aw, that's so cute. Thank you. We need more people who adopt the dogs with stories, the ones who need it most. There are plenty dogs out there with tragic stories of being returned, abused, and neglected. They really need love. It's a shame how people reject these dogs for their stories, so I'm happy you took the time to give Link love! 🐾❤️
Also, if he's your profile picture...
HE'S ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! Does he run a lot? 😂❤️🐾
watching this with tears in my eyes, I'm laying next to this little angel our family just adopted from Puerto Rico and is slowly coming out of her shell. Watching videos for tips and stories about fearful rescue dogs so I can be the best human to her.
I just found this video and also just lost my big Pyrenees a few months back. He was so much like this dog! He once turned over a cake platter on my counter and ate a whole Angel food cake! Like you, I had no idea dogs would countersurf! Thanks for the laughs and the memories of my sweet boy.
Oh my! I saw Pollux at an adoption event at Pet Smart! I wanted to take him home but I recognized how tightly wound and fearful he was and did not think I had the skills to handle him and I already have 2 big dogs. My heart broke for him. I am so glad to hear that someone finally gave him a chance. If he is part border collie you can connect with him during play time. Maybe eventually he will play ball with you. I had 2 border collies in the past and they are non-stop energy. That may explain why Pollux is not well adjusted. He was not abused at the shelter but he did not have enough avenues to express his high energy so it turned inward into fear and anxiety. Those walks you take him on are therapeutic. Keep it up. I am cheering for you and for Pollux! THANKS for sharing!
Oh Debra!!!! Pollux has transformed into the sweetest boy...and in just the few days we've had him. He still does have a lot of energy but he's using it to play with our other dog and chew on toys. We're going on long walks every day and he is getting used to the sounds in our house. Every morning, he wakes up better than the day before. I'm glad to know you saw him and all was well. We are loving every minute with him!
So happy he ended up with someone so kind & most of all understanding.
He looked stressed and uncertain in the shelter. Now that he is with you he looks very happy and confident. Well done.
Beautiful! God bless you all🙏☝️💓
What a beautiful, sweet dog! Such a sad story with a really happy ending. Pollux is blessed to have such a wonderful, caring family. Thanks for sharing him with us!
Hello Sandra
I love how you’ve introduced Pollux to us, he is gorgeous. Thank you!
God knew Pollux was waiting on you! What a blessing! His rescue was yours too! God bless you all! “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened”. (Anatole France)
Renee , Paul lux was truly blessed for you but got him home. He was so scared and frightened and now he’s such a happy loving dog.❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
This is such a good story. Thank you for adopting him & giving him a family.
he is such a lovely dog you did a good thing rescueing him
As an animal lover who has been crossposting cats and dogs on social media for years, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving this angel a home. May God bless you! ❤😇
You have a whole new look 👀!!!! I love women who are brave enough to go gray.
Pollux is precious and has no idea how lucky he has gotten and made this family.
God bless you!
I have 2 rescues myself.
The last one came into the shelter 7:30pm the night before I went there and she was already scheduled to be euthanized because of major medical issues and being a senior dog.
I got everything taken care of. They said she will eventually go blind,
I can deal with that as she is such a sweet baby.
Oh my goodness!! So glad to know she has a good home now. I adopted a senior Miniature Schnauzer....and he lived with us for 4 years before he passed. And he was the sweetest boy
To be honest... I feel so sorry for "ugly" dogs that no one adopts. However, Pollus is beautiful. Hard to believe that no one adopted him before. A long wait but worth it !!
Mindy. No dog or animal is ugly.
Jeffrey Rawles vv
On top of that he came into the shelter as a puppy. Must've been skittish from the start. The shy , reserved dogs seem to have trouble getting adopted.
She isn't saying there are ugly dogs, she put ugly in quotes.
There are no ugly dogs in my eyes
I had to stop and finally watch and here I sit crying. I am so thrilled at the love your daughters have for animals, it's obvious from the box opening. Pollux makes me think of a blind man getting his vision for the first time. What a sight and experience. Bless your hearts for giving him a home.
This brought tears to my eyes. So sad that he spent so long in the shelter as a puppy, I thought they were the first to go. I’m so glad you adopted him. I’ll be watching more of HIS videos.
We rescued our pit bull Cinnamon from Detroit. She was thrown out of a moving car as a puppy. She was scared of car rides & men. Especially if they wore hats or hoodies. She’d bark & growl & her hair would stand up. She was also very timid & shy coming home too. But after lots of time & lots of loving. She’s a totally different dog. We had a pug that taught her how to dog lol.
I'm soooo glad that baby IS with you , kind soul.....
Thank you for rescuing her. Blessings. Her story at least has a happy ending with you.🙏💙🙌🐾🐕
Sounds just like my pitbull Ronnie. I hated pitbulls at first, but now she's is my best friend. She had a really hard life. Was found emaciated in an abandoned warehouse and was abused. She's spoiled now and overly loved. She is my shadow and never leaves my side. Thank you for what you did for your dog
A coworker rescued a pitbull that was the "bait dog" for dog fights. She (the dog) is scared of men in hats and hoodies too. Glad your dog was lucky to find you and a loving home.
I love Pitts. Both mine are rescued. Bear was given up at the age of 10 months because he was submissive. Buddy was rescued from a hoarding situation where he was found in a shed that he had been in since 3 months old. He was 13 month old when rescued. Buddy had to be potty trained and learn everything. He's an exceptional dog. They are, and they both are my boys. So, from sleeping in a shed to sleeping on my bed, ....he's got it pretty good now.
I was crying watching this. Can't believe he was in the shelter so long, he's so sweet!!
Maria N me too crying for joy
"All good things comes to those who wait" is exactly true in this case for this cute dog, He waited 491 hard days at the shelter and got adopted by the best loving Family Ever.
One of the most beautiful dog stories I’ve ever heard! Bless you for giving him the life he (and every dog) deserves! 💚
love this story so much! thankyou for saving him! god bless! he is so beautiful!
Me three!
He's such a beautiful dog. It's amazing the poor animals that don't get adopted. People just don't stop to think how terrified they are to be at the shelter. People expect to walk in and see this super cute dog all happy and wanting to play, but they've been in jail, and they're scared. Your family is amazing! Thank you for taking a chance on this guy.
Pollux is so adorable -happy that he is with a nice family
The only animal that I will own is a rescue animal
Me too
Agree i have always adopted my dogs
My last 3 dogs have all been rescue dogs; I had to put one down after 16 1/2 yrs, he gave us 12 years of love and laughs and mayhem and will be missed forever. The last two will be around for about 10 and 8 respectively. They are lots of fun, every one different from the previous one, each one with their own charm and qualities. I only wish I could adopt more. Good save, Pollux!
🙋🏽♀️ here here. It has been the greatest journey ever!!
@J E I negatively judge people who own dogs in general. I was attacked by a dog as a child and have developed a general disliking for the creatures. My family has owned many dogs but I do not develop the same level of relationship with them that I do with my cats.
God does work in mysterious ways! My 18 yo chihuahua mix male friend passed last nite. We only had him for 2 yrs (owner was going to "put him down" cuz he was old) but what a joy he brought into our lives! Watching your video helped heal my 💔 a bit seeing how U & your loving family took a chance on a Rollux. God Bless Ya'll & I'll keep watching for updates on you & your fur babies.
I’m so sorry to hear that!!!
He's going to do just fine with this wonderful family in their beautiful home. He's being given the patience and love he needs to thrive. Heartwarming!
We took on a dog who had been in the local dog rescue centre for nearly two years, nobody wanted her because she had health problems, but she turned into the most faithful friend for over 16 years and repaid every moment and the money spent on her care with love and devotion.
I'm so happy for Pollux that he has a wonderful family. 491 days is a long time to wait but in this case it was worth it because Pollux now has the best home he could ever have. That is obvious.
You’re just plain WONDERFUL, KIND, LOVING PEOPLE... We need many, many more people like you on this world! Thank u for sharing this video full of love, humor, and kindness... you got a new subscriber and fan!
What a sweet boy! I can’t believe he was there so long! I love watching doggie “ homecoming” videos. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you for rescuing that pup! We have two rescues! Bless you guys!
Be patient. It takes time to adjust.
I have lots of time to spend with him since it's winter and our business is seasonal. He is adjusting more every single day. I can see progress literally every morning. It's fascinating to watch!
I rescued an unsocialized cat 1 1/2 years ago. We named her Gracie. Gracie came from a hoarders house with 2 dozen other cats. So when we adopted her, I knew I had my work cut out for me. But as an "empty nester" I had plenty of time. So me & my other rescue cat, Chloe, have slowly broken down her defenses. She barely let me pet her at first, now I give her belly rubs. She's still skittish, probably always will be, but she now knows she has a home, is loved, and she doesn't startle at every little noise. Gracie's favorite thing is to lay on the windowsill and watch the baby birds that live in the eaves above us come and go all day long. Gracie has also just learned to play fetch by watching her big sister Chloe & I play it all the time. Her favorite toy is any sort of soft fake mouse toy. So, keep being patient, love wins every time. 💓💓
He's great! Especially considering he has been in the shelter for so long.
Adoption is always the right choice and especially of dogs who have been for a long time in the shelter and senior dogs too.
One of ours was a rescue, it took a long time for him to settle & be touched but now he is super loving to us all.
Omg! I loved that you adopted a dog nobody wanted! It’s so sad he had to spend all that time in the shelter, I can’t wait to see his progress.i subscribe to your channel. By the way you are so beautiful! Love your hair!
This video was recommended by RUclips for the first time today. (I'm a channel hopper and I watch a bunch of rescue videos.) I just wanted to say thank you for taking a chance on Pollux. While different in many ways, our dog, Maxwell Smart was in the shelter for a very long time too. Almost 18 months. He'd also been severely abused requiring major surgeries and then was returned to the shelter by his family of 3 years when the place they moved into didn't allow dogs. It's affected him in ways that it looks like Pollux might be dealing with too. You mentioned that he doesn't like when your husband wears a hat. My husband let's his hair get pretty shaggy between cuts. The first time that Maxxie saw him with short hair he freaked out and started barking at him. It took him about 10 minutes to calm down. He has his issues, but it's all worth it. The love that you receive from an animal who knows what it's like to not have a family, but finally gets their forever family is is unlike any other.
Ok, I am crying. I’d like to adopt a dog too and videos like these make me cry 🤷🏻♀️.
So happy For Pollex you all are so wonderful to him!!!
First time seeing this during quarantine.
Poor baby has to learn to be a dog, a pet, a family member and eventually your protector and best friend.
Looks like he found the perfect family. Thank you so much.
I got my dog from the local shelter. They couldn’t tell me anything about his long term past but he had been taken home 3 times and returned. He’s 120lbs. He’s great on a leash , he was 99% house trained. He is a great dog. The minute he walked in the door him and my other dog were best friends. Never had a problem. He’s not food aggressive at all. I can even reach in his bowl and take his food out of his bowl with my hand. He doesn’t bother the cats. All around he’s been a wonderful dog. He’s like velcro to me but I love that about him. I have no idea why anyone would return him but I’m glad they did. He’s in his forever home now and he’s a perfect fit.
Sabastian Taylor that’s amazing !!! I got all my cAts from my local shelter . My kola was in a shelter for nine months was told not to adopt bc he would have to many issues and expensive teeth stuff to fix , I didn’t care , he has been the best thing that has ever happened to me , my life my world and to think someone declawed then threw this beautiful loving cat out and he was found with eye infection and so skinny he almost died , makes me so mad at people out there !!! But to hear such great stores like yours, brings back belief that there are still angels among us !!! Thank you for adopting from your shelter !! I believe animals are Angels from heaven !
everything happens for a reason maybe velcro is really for you ...destiny :)
I’m legit sitting here crying!!! He’s such a lucky doggie!!! 💕💕💕
I just saw this now for the first time. What a nice dog! Thanks for rescuing him. Who says dogs don't smile? I think he's very happy in his new life. Maybe he's a bit afraid it's all just a dream, lol! I could tell straight off the has some collie in him. Can't wait to see the rest of your videos.
I can't believe this beautiful dog was never adopted until now. Thank you and God bless you for giving this gorgeous boy a chance at a happy, healthy life! Dogs are the most noble creatures on the planet! God bless them all. Wishing you and your family many wonderful years together!
Maam, you are a credit to the human race.
Take care and stay safe.
When he was running with your hubby you could see his Border Collie herding instincts kick - in. He looks like he - and your hubby - will be a great dog agility - team. Give it a go, of you guys can. Hugs from Zambia, Africa.
We adopted our Great Dane/Mastiff mix, Ziva, from the shelter on post when we were stationed in Louisiana 7 years ago. She knew how to be a dog but because the only family she’d known left her behind, she wasn’t ready to completely trust us. I had just had a baby and we had just gotten our Great Dane puppy Leonidas from the breeder (about a month or two before getting her) but I was determined not to let her stay there, I couldn’t stand the thought and she was HUGE (I love big dogs…like really big dogs), literally the biggest sweetheart you’d ever meet, came from a family with children and was raised with kids. Shelter dogs are so special!! Pollux seems like such a sweetheart and I’m super late but I can’t wait to catch up on his adventures and see how he grows and comes into his inner doggie! Thank you for sharing this journey! 400+ days is so sad! I was distraught by how long Ziva was there (and it definitely wasn’t THAT long)!
7:30 He is so happy he does not know what to do with himself. Bless his heart. Even a sofa is thrilling.
He reminds me so much of our rescue we adopted 2 1/2 years ago. She’s a little less anxious but she is still shy and scared of new people and other dogs. We originally came early one morning to look at a German Shepard puppy they advertised on the shelters Facebook page. Someone had gotten there before they opened and adopted him right away. We decided why not look around while we were there. I noticed a dog there that reminded me of our last rescue who had passed the year before. All the shelter knew was that she was part Akita. She’s a beautiful dog and her brother had been adopted a month prior. I remember her standing out at the shelter bc she was so scared and tried to hide in the back of her space. She had the saddest eyes while the other dogs were at the door and barking loud with curiosity. It seemed like she had given up at that point so we eventually came back and adopted her with no hesitation. Every moment with her makes me smile and see life as something that should be appreciated. She’s a reminder to me that there’s still innocence and good in the world. No matter what I’m going through, just seeing her will remind me that everything will be okay and my sadness or fear just melts away. She also reminds me of a deer. She prances like one and loves to run very fast. She still gets anxious from time to time but we always remind her that she’s okay and loved. It’s a wonderful thing to be able to share your happiness and love with an animal who may have never experienced it.
Gosh, I really appreciate what you've done. Poor animals all over struggle to find the love that they deserve--especially shelter dogs. I'm so happy that she got to give you the love you deserved, and that you could do the same for her! ❤️
Made me cry 😢
Pollox also looks part greyhound with his nose and thinner body. I love him. We always take animal shelter dogs and cats. They are the sweetest and most loyal animals in the world.
I thought that from the picture, but seeing the video he is very clearly part smooth collie, not greyhound
