I love you guys! So good to know that kind people share life on our beautiful planet!❤
I had a black mix with white toes who looked like her. There are a couple barriers to my ability to adopt but I'd adopt her in a heartbeat. 😢
❤ shes beautiful
You are SO IN TUNE with dogs, my heartis with you, blessings😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤
Honey was adopted on 8th March 2024 - international ladies day. So cool. Now she can heal and settle into a loving new home. (News posted on Rocky's website)
😍😍😍😍 so happy for her
Hooray for Honey and her new family!🎉❤ She's sure to become a great companion! All of the dogs we've had over the years have been rescues. All were shut down like this sweet dog, and all of them with patience and love learned to trust again❤ God bless you, Rocky for the work you do! Happy life, Honey-Girl😊
💕🥰🐕
This post made my day. Wonderful news.
Thank you for the update, I tried to check out the link he provided and it basically just did a play-by-play of everything he said in the video with no update, and there were so many ads on the mobile site I couldn't even see full screengrabs of her from this video... I'm so glad to hear her People found her, I was about ready to hop in my car and drive to wherever this shelter is and get her myself (that's why I even clicked the link in the first place) 🥹
Her eyes say she's heartbroken. She needs lots of love.
Yes, that is also my perception. This doggy is in despair.
when owners call their dog "venom", they clearly did not get a dog to shower it with love... They wanted a big black scary dog... not a cuddlebug.
Yes she is def sad
I know poor baby
@@liquidminds That's reductive. Dogs don't care what you call them, it's just a string of meaningless sounds to them, so I'd personally have no problem naming a dog "Plague" or "Terror" or anything like that, it would actually be funny to have a dog with a name like that be an actual bundle of love and joy. Plus "Venom" can be a pop culture reference, the movie came out before that dog was born. I could name a dog "Venom" - although I'm pretty sure they'd get nicknamed "Venven" pretty soon.
When we adopted my late dog, he had a collar with King on it. The shelter workers all called him that but he flinched when he got called it. We had to wait a day to take him home but when we finalized it so they couldn't adopt him out to someone else, I asked them to change it to the name we were gonna call him on the cage. I named him Yugi... Yes after Yu-Gi-Oh because he was very timid and yet very sweet... And I knew once he came out of his shell nothing was gonna stop him. We had our beloved boy for ten years.
That was very observant of you. You gave the dog an entirely fresh start with its new name.
sorry for asking but how does the reasoning for naming him Yugi from Yu-Gi-Oh being because "he was sweet and timid" make sense? aint no one in that show or card game sweet and timid
@@tabor5 the Toei series
Yu gi oh? Because king of games? Haha get it.. king
@@tabor5 Yugi himself is a bit shy and timid, but when he switches with the Pharoah he becomes the guy who gets stuff done. I think that's a great name
She turned her face after she sniffed the collar, WOW HEART BRAKING
🥹😢
Exactly what I was thinking
Broke my heart to pieces 💔
Owners could afford a week vacation but don't pay a fine for neglecting their dog.
Exactly!😢😢😢😢
It's good Honey is away from these terrible people. Hope she find a much better family.
True! Sad how some people who have pets have their priorities out of whack. 😢😢 Poor girl.. my heart hurts for her.
I hope they don't give her back, some people just suck big time.@@TheImmilky
Shitty people are everywhere
Calling her Venom tells a lot about the previous owners and the reason she is in this situation.
Or some little kid named the dog after a comic book character, though sadly you are likely right
Change her name asap.
It may actually have been the comic book character- she's all black with a pale patch on her chest. It still doesn't suit her, though. She seems like such a sweetheart. I just want to pet the poor girl.
@@ArtistLunatalia I want to pet her too. Those sad eyes.
@@ArtistLunatalia I agree with you L. May she recover from the nightmare she must’ve been through, and be happy for always. 🤩💜😍🙋🏼♀️🥰
I adopted an intimidating looking pitbull from an animal shelter that was previously used for dog fighting. People were too scared to adopt him, but he ended up being the sweetest dog ever who just wanted some love. The shelter said his name was Zues. I wanted a gentler name for him. I noticed his fur looked like it had brindle stoney looking patches, so I named him Rocky. That was before I found this channel. Now I realize just how cool of a name I chose.
I changed my Pittie from "Chaos" to "Thunder". He was 4. He doesn't even respond to Chaos anymore.
Okay so the stereotype of Pitbulls with names like Destroyer, Chaos bringer being actual sweet hearts are actually true
@@sahilrahman5066 Definitely. Let me roll over in bed and confirm it with him. Yup, Thunder agreed.
I just rescued a black pitty and named her Raven. She is extremely intelligent and stubborn, just like a Raven but also the sweetest dog ever and very mild mannered
@@shyannewhisner8003 Mine is tubborn too haha
She’s literally the cutest dog. I feel so bad that she has to go through this. She deserves the best belly rubs.
Her eyes and brows are so expressive. You can read the concern in her face.
Soooo much concern!!! Poor, sweet girl. She hung her head and neck so low….heart completely broken. Her eyes did all the talking. I hope she finds the best forever home with the best humans to ALWAYS love her.
My little senior rescue has those exact same Eyebrows of Great Concern, lol. The first six months I had her, she mostly just hid in the corner of my living room. Over time, she veeery slowly shifted from coming out periodically to let me pet her before retreating again to her corner, to actually wanting to be out near me all the time. It's so wonderful to see her blossom from a dog a lot like Honey to a full-blown goofball!! Honey will get there too!!
Qué hermosa perrita! Eligió echarse sobre la manta que llevó el hombre! La que conserva el olor del que le dedicó unos minutos de amor!❤ Qué tierna! Me encantaría poder visitarla para hablarle y hacerle muchas caricias, para que supiera que hay otras personas que también la amamos...
Her side eyes are adorable❤
If feel she knows you are talking about her... when you said black dog she looked up...
That poor baby is heart broken. She knows she was left and lost family. I feel you baby.
If they abandoned her there, then they were never really her family to begin with… Just sayin’.
@@kourtneyfiorucci5945 "he may have been your father, but he wasn't your daddy"
That's what i'm getting this baby girl misses her family
Wolf gene
@@SinAster_19Well said you rock star 😅😅
Her eyes are so expressive! What a precious girl! So happy she found her forever home!
With this kind of compassion, this guy could help people. This was amazing watching this transformation.
We need him to help dogs.
If only this world had more people like him...
Surely you realise that all his videos prove that people don't deserve help
When she got scared! She ran back to your blanket. You gave her something to feel safe with. Thank you
Great observation 👍
I was the 1000th like lol
Feeling safe has nothing to do with giving her treats. That is manipulation.
@@JPcommunicates Not sure you understand dogs.
@@JPcommunicates Not so. If he's feeding her, he wants her to be alive and okay, dogs know this, so yes, feeding does instill trust. Things that wanna hurt you usually don't feed you.
I just adopted a senior black shepherd last Friday, 1 day before her euthanization. She was very similar temper. She had been in the shelter since 11/15/2023. They had her as reactive to other dogs. I took a chance on her and she is such an amazing, smart and loving dog and gets along with my other dog wonderfully so far. Thanks for this video, I pray it encourages a massive softening of hearts for viewers to go adopt.
Thank you for being proactive just in time! She sounds like a wonderful dog, as so many truly are.
I spent part of my early childhood with a male black shepherd. He was called Wolf. Very loyal but he did chase and bite sheep (he lived on a sheep and poultry farm) if left unsupervised! I do understand why some people would think black GSDs are sinister but they should make an effort to look beyond appearances.
Good man!
It just goes to show what an amazing thing love is all creatures need to feel loved. You are doing amazing things Thankyou .❤
Why did they euthanize the dog the day after you adopted it?
Thank you for doing this, I could tell STRAIGHT AWAY that she is a super sweet cutie who just needs affection and love
I would adopt this beautiful soul in a heartbeat, how anyone can abandon their pet is beyond my comprehension. Peace and Love from Scotland 🙏🏻
I spent 5 years as a county animal control officer in one of the largest and most affluent counties in California. While there was lots of satisfaction, the frustration and anger that much of the work engendered was really hard to tolerate. I am watching lots of suspicion and way too many fear responses from this dog. That, along with almost no response to the praise tells me way too much about her former owners; as in people who have no business owning a dog. Project dogs like this girl are demanding but always worth the effort. She just really needs a home where she can trade her affection for affection in return. Most dogs deserve far more than they get.
thank you ❤ 😢 so sad when dogs are neglected and abused 😢
I was thinking a lot of the same things that you mentioned. Her former owners are not animal lovers.
Just like not all people should have children, not all should have pets. An animal is a huge responsibility. If one is able and willing to take care of one, the rewards are ten fold
Eu gostaria de saber porque estes cachorros estão presos nestas gaiolas. Eles estao em tratamento ❓
Every dog deserves better than that I agree with what you said about her noticed same things as you
This man could counsel trauma survivors in the same manner. He is good in nonjudgmental words and actions.
I love it. I use those words when I work with humans. So powerful. ❤
And the 'treats' are a nice bonus😊
I need a therapist that gives out strawberries or something haha
We all should have his patience & openness.
Sweet as blackberry pie ~ easy to picture her as a warm couch companion and walking buddy!! Glad she’s enjoying treats.
GSD's are beautiful, loyal, loving, protective family members. Absolutely one of my favorite breeds. There is something deeply special about Shepherds. I lost my Girl 3 weeks ago. ..she has Vestibular disease. I rescued her 9 years ago, from a deplorable life. What was done to that baby was unconscionable. I had her for 9 wonderful years, and did my best to UN-DO every evil, rotten thing, AND memory she endured, and every terror she lived through. Her 9 years with me, hopefully erased the evil from her memory. I loved that Dog with all my heart, and she loved me. She was strong, and faithful. She was protective, and loving. My heart is broken over losing her. I still "hear" her moving about the house ... checking on my sleeping family. I pray that God finds me worthy of another German Shepherd...I cannot ever replace her, but I'd sure love to have a new friendship with one. Shepherds... They are remarkable animals.
That's so beautiful. She was lucky to have so may years of love with you. Thank you for what you did
That opening shot broke my heart. You’re a good man 👍
Those eyes really showed everything. The amount of betrayal and despair those pair of eyes are showing. She needs affection!!
❤ I AGREE 100%! ❤
Not just affection but loyalty! She had affection(initially). She was only entertainment not irreplaceable family. And that is the commitment people should have when they buy an animal that they are introducing a new family member To stick with and stick by for ever till the end of days .New cute, young, rambunctious, old and sick. In fact, I think there should be a type of fund that is held to the side. that people have to pay on buying an animal. to ensure that that animal is backed up in terms of food and maintenance (And only ever payable as food and dog animal maintenance). So when somebody cannot do this the dog is safe. Rule is don't make a buying animals easy .
@@nv7287 Yes, I totally agree! I forgot to add that in.. I hope he could update us if she was adopted!
"Windows to soul", has never had such a strong example.
Yes, those are some very sad eyes, I wish I could just love all over her, once she feels comfortable again! Takes time to undo that trauma & sometimes it can never be undone, depending on the animal & situation!
Pets never deserve to be thrown away, treated badly or killed. They deserve long happy and healthy lifes always.
No animals deserve cruelty, not just pets. 🌱🥗🥑🍓🥕🍇✝️🍌🍒🍉
@@undergrace1808 just remember that god gave us cows,chickens,and etc for us.
@@undergrace1808 You know what? You're right, no animal deserves to be treated badly. (also why so many emojis lol)
@@nicronful that's... homocentric
@@zerada00 9 out of 10 are fruits/veggies. Perhaps they’re vegan?
Her eyes broke my heart! The sadness in them when she smelled her old collar 😭😭😭 I wish I could have her as I need an ESA and would love her! She responds so well to approval and seems like a great companion. Glad she finally found a loving home❤
Breaks my heart to hear that someone basically said “we don’t want her”. I hope all the “unwanted” dogs find good happy homes where they can be loved and appreciated.
Me 2
Es lamentable y deplorable la acción de esa gente, el hecho de haberla dejado, en lugar de buscar la forma de solucionar la situacion. Dios quiera que encuentre un buen hogar, como realmente merece, se ve en sus ojos una gran necesidad de afecto, además de que es muy hermosa.. ❤️💕💓
i feel like i can almost understand that and i dont even know what language that is haha@@zullycappellini6471
With people that have time, energy and patience. Not everybody can provide that. I would not have the time or energy right now.
Me too ❤
She listened so intently when you changed her name from Venom to Honey, feeling the power behind your life-affirming words.
Of course! Sounds absolutely influence material world, every letter, every word holds its own energy.
so true...my best friend of 20+ years changed his name and he started acting so different...our relationship just isn't the same anymore sadly. :/@@MeowingCat835
Nope...it's the tone of his voice
You shouldn't take it personally....😂😂😂😂 you've Bern in there 4 minutes. Men have no clew......Would you shine I'm prison...with loud dogs barking...non stop banging noises of medal doors opening & slamming
I make treats for shelter dogs....and I buy baby mattresses...for them.. Keep the plastic on it and warm comfy blanket...only 35.00. Best beds anywhere
Seeing a dog like makes me hurt, but you are such a good person man. Makes me cry and be grateful for you and people that are like you
Breaks my heart to see her so sad😢. Hope she gets the amazing and loving family that she deserves.💞💞
In the 1960s my family owned 60 acres in the country in a mid-Atlantic state. The humane society had a very small shelter a couple of miles away and my mother got to know some of the people there. A beautiful, small, female GSD came into the shelter but they had no room and my mother brought her home to foster her. As a child on a farm, we took care of the animals but I was informed that the GSD was 'vicious' and that care was needed when feeding, etc. The real story was that she came from a home where a couple had one child, a son, who was beating the dog and the dog eventually began to respond aggressively to the son, and began to dislike male humans. That dog became part of our family, became a strong protector of my younger sibling, and we loved her to the end of her life. It seems that Honey may not have been treated well, likely didn't received the positive love and care she should have, and only needs a good person to turn her around. I hope she finds that home!
That's heart felt. I'm so happy you guys changed your dog life around. ❤😊Life sure isn't fair. I hope Honey gets a good life. (I always wish I could do the same for animals, to make animal life a little more fair.( I can donate, though)😊 God bless you.
We don't deserve dogs.
She doesn’t look like a mean dog. She’s just scared and sad. 😢❤
❤❤❤😢😢😢😘😘😘🥰😍
What a lovely story, thanks for sharing it, also for understanding that shepherd - and caring for her the rest of her life. 💕🐾☮️
Her thinking she was going for a walk and not getting one was heartbreaking. She really wanted out of there.
That broke my heart, too.
Pensé exactamente lo mismo! Se ilusiono con salir a pasear. ¿Por que no la saco?
I agree all he is doing is disapointing her just for dam likes and making money on youtube. Hes a weird looking dude anyways i wouldnt go with him anywheres lol
She’s beautiful
@@2soles2 he explained why in the video?
I still cannot get over the terribly sad expression and eyes of these poor puppers. All I know is MY British Lab loves those chicken jerky treats and I will keep on ordering any treat from your bakery, Rocky !
SIRE, YOU ARE SO KIND, YOU MELTED OUR HEARTS. WE LOVE YOU. THANK YOU FOR HELPING THE DOGS.
UPDATE 03.08.24 - Honey was ADOPTED thanks to everyone sharing her story, congratulations Honey! Source: Rocky's website in the description of the video. edit: 03.08.24 means 8th March 2024

I am so happy she was adopted! ❤❤❤
Praying for a
She has the most beautiful face, but the most sorrowful expression. So sad. I hope she learns to trust again ❤️❤️
watching you work with this pup felt like it helped me take a deep breath with the process of life itself. arriving here on planet earth as a baby and going through difficult issues has left me feeling like that dog in some regards. it's beautiful to know that there is a process to healing and it's okay to take our time and there are people who care about others. wishing you blessings good sir.
Names/words hold frequencies and animals are wise to this! As well as to the energies of humans. You have a calmness in your energy that is such a gift!! Thank you for your patience and love for these special beings ❤ Gently showing her touch is safe, explaining what she deserves and calling her by a loving name like Honey means everything 🥰 New follower!
Nobody be discouraged by this behavior if you get a dog acting like this. My shepherd from the shelter acted like this for a month but he found his favorite rocking chair and laid in it by my bed and slowly started opening up. Now the dog is the most playful and talkative dog I’ve ever seen. Hes a literally 100 pound baby who submits to the little 20 lb daushand because he knew the other dog was here first. It’s so sweet to watch. But just dont be discourage by this behavior and make it why you never get that kind of dog
I think you meant Dachshund.☺️
Exactly, I've only had shelter/homeless dogs. Most have been scared for varying times but all opened up and all have been great beautiful best friends.
Your advice is invaluable and so very much needed ❤️
Thank you for posting this advice
Had a cat like that, he would shiver and hiss it was hard to watch. We let him sleep in my closet till he eventually wanted to explore. Our friendship began when I gave him fresh chicken. Now he follows me wherever I go
Honey is STUNNING!! I hope she finds the perfect home for her. 🥰
She is. You can see it in her eyes!
@@GoingHome77 I think you mean Dog Daddy but are we sure she is a black shepard?
She’s beautiful !
You nearly made me cry. She's such a sweet little thing.
The minute her head came up rather than down so forlornly. Rocky you have a magic voice. ❤
20 minutes with a kind stranger and her faith in humanity is restored. Dogs are incredible.
best creatures on planet😋
Bless her heart. Every dog deserves to be loved like this.
Yes, they are! Almost seems like they're too good for us.
She wanted to go out for a walk 100%. Maybe a bit of sun bathing. The warmth of the sun is really relaxing to a lot of dogs.
More likely she wanted away from all the noise. Dog's hearing is much more sensitive than ours, and clearly she wasn't liking the sudden loud noises.
It's exhilarating, too. The pups move their legs and smell the air. It's so freeing.
I've had several dogs who would follow the sun as they napped.
Dude when I take my pups out in the summer sometimes they pick a nice spot and plop down to sunbathe I'm like cmon we can't stay out here all day girls xD
It was the moment she went back to his blanket for me.❤
Ten days makes me so sad! You warmed my heart with the love in your voice. Thanks for saving her.
The whole sitting process and just letting her get comfy reminded me of my granddad and his dog, Cuddles. Cuddles was abandoned in the woods about eight miles from the nearest town, out where my granddad lived. He'd put a bowl of food out on the porch and sit with him and talk to him, and after a few days Cuddles would hang out on the porch with him, which then progressed to letting my granddad pet him. After a week, he was able to convince Cuddles to come inside. Cuddles was still pretty iffy on hanging out with a human, so he stayed in the entryway for a week, but eventually warmed up to my granddad and started roaming around the house. They had 10 wonderful years together. My granddad named him Cuddles because, according to him, "he looked like he needed a cuddle and a hug". Honey has the same energy.
Aw your granddad was so kind and patient ❤
Mashallah
Cuddles was so lucky
Your grandad was a good un. ❤️🙏
What a good thing your grandad did! I'm happy he and Cuddles had 10 years together! ❤️
What a sweet little fluff 😢 How could anyone just abandon her and not think shes worth the fee will baffle me for all of time. And to call her "Venom" is not only an insult to her, but an insight into the life she could have previously had and how her last "owners" thought of her. Cant wait for her to find her forever home and finally get all the love she deserves. ❤
Poor puppy, named "Venom" and so scared and introverted. You know she was abused. People can really be cruel.
She's probably better off WITHOUT her last owners.
For sure!@@KoshN
The name is given by insecure owners who want to appear tough when really they’re just slack and immature. They tend to name their kids in a similar aggressive fashion.
I have a niece who named her love bird “Satan” . He was. How awful. Not the bird.😊
16:00 I love how she’s beginning to loosen up and regain trust as if she’s thinking “I could probably get used to him being around” such a strong girl ❤
Did this beautiful angel find a caring and loving deserving home???🙏
Yep, she got adopted!
I have a black dog who looks and acted exactly like this dog. She had been in the kennel over 6 months. She has been with me for 4 years but still is apprehensive of strangers and afraid of strange noises. She is also the gentlest sweet dog. She knows she is loved.
I also have a dog that looks exactly like Honey. My Raven is also fearful of strangers. She was brought to Maryland from Texas after hurricane Harvey. We adopted her as a puppy about 4 years ago. She has never known anything but love. I would adopt this sweet girl if there were some way to get her here.
German shepards and German shepard mix are weary of strangers ours is a German Shepard Poodle mix she won't let anyone she doesn't know touch her ...
I recognize that Australian cattle dog expression and border collie coat coloration. She is very special working breed that needs acknowledgement - not happy just as a pet. They receive affection through constant companionship and being around herding animals. Careful, they aren’t called “healers” for nothing. Ever seen them load bulls into a stock trailer in an open pasture? They are masters of body language and highly observant, happiest with constant learning challenges and structured predictable environment. Could be her previous family didn’t provide enough appropriate activity to satisfy her breed needs so she took out that pent up frustration on her companion. I predict she’d make a great helpmate for a young family farmstead.
She looks like my Auatralian Kelpie! A working dog no doubt, we love in a duplex not a farm but we get plenty of daily exercise. She and her sister are very happy dogs; I've had them since 8 weeks and they're now 14 years.
It's so inappropriate to turn a working dog into a pet before their time. My daughter's little corgi is so busy and restless. I know and admire Aussie cattle dogs. She is such a beautiful dog!!
She looks like my late Kelpie. Kelpies are amazing dogs and it breaks my heart to see Honey like this. Edit: she is crying out for love, mental stimulation and exercise. I would adopt her, but I am in Australia. 😟
She is a beautiful dog! I have a blue heeler mix and her expressions are just like my dogs!
I’ve read alot about border collies and associated breeds and they ARE INDEED extremely intelligent and very sensitive. Truly very special dogs. So sweet and attentive and empathetic.
Oh what a wonderful being YOU are! And honey ❤. Thank you so much for this video
This made me smile, thank you for your work. I adopted a black dog from shelter and she’s still with us today and doing well. She’s not much of a dog lover but great with people and gets along with other family pets be it an another dog or cat.
I hope she gets a new forever home soon! Two years ago I adopted a black pitbull/lab mix from the shelter named Danger. She’s had 4 previous owners and no one was interested in adopting her. After adopting I changed her name to Juno and right away it was as if that has been her name since forever. She’s extremely loyal, kind and loving. Honey really reminds me of Juno and I hope she’ll soon find the loving home she deserves as well! ❤
A name change was definitely a great choice ...
Looks like she got adopted. Hope that she's happy
As a child my parents explained this concept to us every time we got a new pet and I truly believe they were proud of their names- Star, Storm, Diamond, Leo. And I've experienced the same thing as a kindergarten teacher in a very low income and gang ridden area. Idc if everyone including your mother calls you Lil Ray Ray or Chili or Bam or J-dawg. I'm calling you Rayquan, Achilles, Amber and Jayden. They are totally different kids in my classroom. As a side note, years later I was helping Jayden with a college application and where it asked for 'Street name" he wrote J-dawg. Names effect our entire lives. 😮
You ever stop to think why that dog might've had four different owners before you?
@@imakedamoney420smokeweed Almost everyday, mainly because it’s just really unbelievable. I guess it has just been bad luck for her. I’ve worked with rescue dogs before and the craziest reason for owners to bring their dog (pitbull) to the shelter was because he wasn’t “aggressive” enough. People sometimes come up with the craziest reasons to abandon their pets, so the fact she had 4 owners wasn’t something that scared me off. That being said, I visited Juno 2 times before adopting her, just to make sure we were a good match for each other and to see if there were any behavioral problems which could’ve been difficult for me to work with. Turns out she was and still is perfect ❤️
She’s a beautiful dog. The fear in her was intense, every move gave her anxiety. I wonder if she’s been abused. I’m so glad venom is not her name now, that’s such a ugly name for such a beautiful dog. I absolutely love watching these dogs come out of their shell with love and positive affirmations. These people didn’t give her unconditional love, the fee was the breaking point for them. She’s so much better off now having a chance to have a loving forever home. I pray HONEY will find one soon. Thank you Rocky for what you do! ❤🐾
That’s what I was thinking as well - the people who named her “venom” and clearly taught her fear just dumped this poor girl. I hope she gets the new loving owner she deserves!
@harrietlivengood6793 - “That’s such “an” ugly name” Is the proper grammar. “An” is used before a vowel, a, e, I, o, u, and sometimes Y. Not in all cases. I was taught this in the second grade. It is something that is misunderstood, and misused by many people. Not Every single situation holds true, but the majority of the time, if You follow this rule, You will be correct. Stay Positive, Vigilant, Be Kind, Happy, Caring, Respectful, Loving, and You Will Be Fabulously Blessed. 🙏🏽 ♥️ 🙌
@@glorybelieve9010 This is not about grammar. This is about teaching an abused dog trust. That is the proper priority.
I like the poster who suggested the name sounded like "DENIM" -- that could be a transition name --> toward Honey Boo.
We can tell she’s been abused 🤬
I haven't watched a full KZhead video in a long time...but this warmed my heart and captivated me the whole time. So sweet! Glad you're getting the word out and loving on these sweet creatures that are noticeably heartbroken and need that attention and TLC.
I can hear your voice breaking when you heard her story... Poor baby... So sad... So glad she has you rescuing her ❤❤❤
Her eyes... She's so sad. Good luck Honey, youre a beautiful girl. ☮️
I thought the same thing, poor girl
That beautiful sad face almost made me cry. You can see in her eyes, asking for love and kindness
Omg! she’s so heart broken. It literally hurts my heart to see her eyes and know her story. She is amazing and I just want her “happy ever after” for her so bad!❤❤❤!!! Thank you so so much Rocky! The work you do is beyond important . You’re saving lives and bringing souls together by helping these creatures get more visible and removing certain obstacles so people can see them in a better light! ❤ well done, my friend, well done!!!
She's so sweet 🥺
That was so cute how she twitched her ear when you said 'Honey'. Dogs understand so much. I'll pray someone with a good heart adopts her.
Dogs do not speak english.
❤ 🙏
And science has shown that positive words literally have a higher vibration. Amazing.
She has sadness written all over her face... You are doing good deeds man. I'm learning a lot about canine behaviour through your videos.
I LOVE YOU FOR THE KINDNESS YOU SHOW TO THE BABIES
My heart 🖤 She reminds me of my childhood dog, Barney. They look almost identical. Thank you for what you do for these animals. This is the first time I’ve seen your videos and even though I’m in tears, I’m so grateful for the work you and others do to show empathy, love and respect our four legged friends deserve.
Congratulations on Honey being adopted. I hope her new family gives her the love and attention she is seeking.
im so glad she was adopted!

Did anyone else notice when Rocky was told she was there 10 days and he said "That's bad" when this sweetheart heard the word bad, she turned away from him and faced the wall...like she was thinking "does he mean me?" That scene starts @3:20. I see reaction in her. It looked as if she was used to hearing that she was bad! 🥺 Check out what the character Venom looks like...google Venom and click images! She's a honey alright! When she took the entire treat so gently my heart melted! Rocky is so amazing with these hurting furbabies! 💗🙏🌺
I did notice that. The poor, poor baby. I can only imagine how hard her life has been; who wouldn't love this beautiful, broken creature? Love is the answer.
I can just imagine what her first owners must have called her giving her such an awful name.
Was looking for this comment, I noticed, poor soul 💔
She wants to go out for a walk just to get out of there poor darling been rejected twice probably with terrible owners who just dumped her in the kennel I would be depressed too dogs know what's going on they have feelings better than some humans
I noticed that right away too. The fact that she responded more to hearing the word bad than the word good makes me think she heard the word "bad" more frequently or forcefully.
She is so precious and her eyes show how scared she is. I'm so glad she got adopted and thank you for helping her open up.
That feels sooo good 🥰 You´re a real gentle Person. I love your work 👍
Wow. Ten days and Honey is still so scared and sad! Thank You for sitting with this Sweetheart! Honey needs a Home with lots of Love! Share and Share Again Everyone! Hugs for Honey ♥️
I think she is heartbroken.
How about you adopt her
I love watching you work . I am learning every time I watch . I am preparing to start helping in our local shelter as it is changing from the Humane Society of the States to a county entity . Thanks for the lessons .
@angelRodrigiez-rb1qh how about you do? Kinda rude to say that to people imo
@brennadi😂ckinson2920
Honey looks like a collie mix. They are harder to break through because they are more intelligent than other dogs so remember past trauma more. Once you've made that connection, however they learn to come out of their shell. I bet that the "aggression" to the smaller dog was no more than a herding instinct coming out! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so mucj @rocky for helping this beautiful angel 🙏🙏🙏🙏💫✨🌟
i love you man thank you for being the guy who shows up to care about these souls. an overwhelming majority of people could never do what you are doing.
13:35 "you are valuable" she looks up. She knew what he was saying 😢🥰
She did. When her name was changed. It was just amazing!
I adopted a dog who was on his 2nd shelter and one failed rehome. He had soooo many emotional issues. I didn’t get him until he was almost a year and had spent almost that entire time in shelters. He’s a cattle dog/pibble mix. When I first got him he wouldn’t stop crying and cowering and wasn’t potty trained. He’s so smart he was house broken in about 1 week and was a completely different dog within 1 month. He still has issues with fear nipping (so we use a Baskerville muzzle on busy trails or meeting new people) and is especially uncomfortable around men. Pretty sure he was abused. Came to me with scars in his head and a chunk missing from his tongue. Besides that he’s the absolute funnest, most affectionate dog I’ve ever had. He’s 11 now but still acts like he’s a puppy. Project dogs are soooo worth it. Please don’t give up on any dogs who have emotional issues. 🖤
Thank you for adopting the dog. God please you.
@AlpineActivist - You’re a gem of a human being and so is the guy in the video! Bless you both. ❤️
I've rescued and fostered pitbulls from the shelter. They are the hardest, but give them love and time, they are awesome dogs and went to amazing homes.
I adopted a 2 yr old beautiful dog. She was totally afraid of a certain body type of men. She's now 13, and I think her time is getting short. She's the most wonderful, sweetest dog, and I have no idea how anyone could have abused her.
@@kathleenredick275 - Unfortunately, there are some real monsters in the world, who should never be allowed near an animal. Thanks to you, your boy got to experience the love and care all pets deserve. I’m sure it was rewarded and then some! Our pets are such a blessing, aren’t they? I hope when it is his time that your happy memories get you through and sustain you. I’m very thankful for people like you. ❤️
Hiya, 1st time seeing ur channel. U're doing an amazing job. Such compassion and understanding. U were so right to change her name. Keep us updated on her progress.
I got my black mix pit labrador a couple years ago with my mom when her friend said she couldn’t bring her during the move. She didn’t want her to be in a shelter because the poor puppy was unwanted from 3 families. I can’t imagine what she had to go through, but we made sure that she has a forever home with us. She is currently happy and lovey dovey living with me and my family. :)
Such a sweet angel. I hate that she's so sad and timid.
She has soulful eyes. Poor baby just needs love.
She just looks so sad....her eyes say it all! I pray that the next family who adopts her will keep he forever and spoil her with all the love she deserves!
Honey absolutely understood when you were speaking to her. Her eyes were so expressive. I’m so happy she has been adopted and has a loving home now.
This beautiful creature deserves a loving, peaceful home with patient caretakers.
As a human that went through the system and came out of it traumatized..i relate to rescues like honey here. Just need love, patience, people meeting you where you are in the moment and speaking life into you. Thank you for not seeing them as a lost cause. You remind me I'm also not a lost cause. Some animals just need extra love, just like rescue people.
May God give you extra blessings. You sound like a real sweet person and you deserve it❤❤❤ love light and healing to you
You are definitely not a lost cause. I came from a similar background. I pray God will give you beauty for ashes and will use your pain for good. I would recommend getting vocational training so you will always have a skill that will pay the bills. Taking care of yourself is priority 1. God bless you 🙏.
Oh wow. Your sweet comment. I hipenyou know youre valuable too and doing well out there. Dont think of yourself as a rescued person. You just grew up in care that's all. Youre you. ❤
So glad you see the good in this, that is an important strength. Always remember that you, like Honey, are valuable and deserving of love.❤
Thanks for taking the time to work with the dogs. I would totally adopt a pup like her. ❤
So heart warming So glad you found her Much love❤😊
I wanted to cry when they said her owners abandoned her. No wonder she's shut down.
I know...and only 3 yrs old
Psychological speaking as american i feel ugh my owners abandoned me to wich humans should not be owned but in many ways we are just simply possessions of the government .. but being a human im stand offish but i have found also being nice will get people away from you ...well because they just want to use you give them what they want an they go away 😃
NGL. I DID cry. 😪 ♡
That really pisses me off when owners do this to animals. I would adopt this dog in a heartbeat. I would like to find this dogs owners and give them a taste of what it is like.
I'm bummed I didnt find this video a month ago when it first came out. I'm in Southern California but don't know where you are located. I would have took this dog in if she was close enough to me to retrieve from your shelter. I hate animal abuse. This beautiful girl looks just like two other dogs I had the privilege of blessing my life in the past. That poor baby girl looks so broken hearted. God bless your soul for what you are doing with unwanted, troubled and abused animals. The world needs more people in it like you. Please continue with your good works. Our domestic pets needs you so badly. God bless your soul.
Honey is close to her wolf ancestors. She is a queen!!! Stunning!!
Yes - she is gorgeous
I see more Border Collie & German Shepherd. She's SMART. Tried to walk herself by breaking out of kennel, she needs stimulation & exercise. BABY GIRL oh my HEART
Such a beauty. Hope she's found a forever home by now. Good luck Honey x
I love how you work with this dog and sit with her! It is heartwarming
As a person suffering a long lasting depression I have so much sympathy towards this sweet doggo. I wish it would be a possible for me to adopt her. We could heal each other together. I know it would be a long and probably a bumpy road, but there is a hope even with the most reactive dogs. It was so nice to see her come out in her shell just that tiny bit. Oh, how I wish I wouldn't live on the other side of the world.
I hope you go looking for another sweet doggo for your very own. I may not know what I'm talking about, but I wonder if the love of a dog and all those awesome walks, whether you want to or not... wouldn't be really good for you as well. I wish you the best.
I do hope you adopt a dog or cat and as someone who also suffers from depression, i pray you find the right antidepressant. Mine have really helped me
I imagine there are many animals who need love and a home. Check around and you will find the right doggo❤
So sorry that you have to endure depression so much….has to be exhausting😕. That in itself shows your strength…be proud of yourself!!!! Dogs have helped me all my life…they are the best!!😊. Good luck and stay strong!!!!!
HONEY was a PERFECT name fer her and I HOPE she found the HOME/FAMILY she DESERVES. Those eyes touched my soul...
Don't worry she has ❤
Aww, her ears perked right up when you guys said her name was honey. Made me cry. You can tell she can feel how shes being treated and talked about. Lovee hownyou helped her ❤
She's SO gorgeous!…Amazing, well done Rocky1
She looks just like my Lolly. I adopted her here in Spain and she was the same, scared, in a corner. I adopted from a post I saw on fb without ever meeting her in person. She was broken when she arrived and would not leave her corner for a week and I could not get her outside without carrying her (25kg) for several months. She hates treats, they did not interest her, but now she lives for treats. Her bed was in the corner in the living room the first week. So I slept on the couch to keep an eye on her and not leave her alone in a strange place, but after a week I decided to go to my room. I tried to convince her to come, even carried her there, but she ran immediately back to her corner. Then I woke up in the morning and it was the most beautiful gift, she had come in the middle of the night and lay beside my bed on the ground. Although she did not interact with me, this was a great sign, as it was when I left the house and came home and she had taken one of my flipflops from the entrance into her bed to sleep with. Now, 3+ years later, that is still her spot next to my bed, she chose it, even though I'd love her on the bed, she prefers this spot. It took a good two years for Lolly to behave like a more normal dog, and even now she will never be completely fearless and "normal". The amount of abuse she had in her first year of life was unfathomable. She is a princess in the house, but scared on walks and will always be, but that's okay, I am getting used to my girl. I am so happy that you mentioned that the transformations are not always fast. When I got Lolly I had watched so many videos and assumed within a week or few months she'd be completely transformed, but this did not happen and I got really down. But now I realize, I had expectations from social media videos, but what really happened was that (with time) I had to get used to her and she had to get used to me, and then we just figured it out together over time. I just discovered your channel and it brings tears to my eyes to see people making such a difference... and yes! Names are important, they resonate meaning and energy. I am so glad her name is now Honey
Same with abused horses & donkeys. There's a wonderful guy in Spain who rescues them, dogs & cats & assorted farm animals, too. He goes to extraordinary lengths & it will lift your heart to see their successes: Jacob's Ridge Sanctuary. Highly recommend. 👍🏼
How sweet. I'm glad you and your pupper got along and that she's doing better.
You are awesome
:3 adorbs! I just wish my brothers(I have 3 and they're all older than me so of course I'm not gonna be listened to whether I was a male like them or not) never hit our dogs just because they did something they didn't know they weren't suppose to do. We never got rid of them btw and the last dog we got had three litters(10, 10, 3) and we only had others that wanted to adopt them do so, but ended up keeping just two from the first litter just because one of them threw up and the other one ate it🤦♀. I wish our dogs had a better life and I wish I knew even more than I did back then but also I was a kid still in elementary school and in&out of the hospital because diseases exists for some reason, but most importantly, I wish ppl would listen to me. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one doing research and experiments on literally everything I come across as long as I know what I'm doing :/ The only thing they've really only been trained to do(sort of) was sit, stand and "up".(Having them literally jump up on their hind legs to put their front paws in our hands or chest XD ) That one wasn't intended actually😅 but then again, most things are like that... I just wish ppl would always think before doing/saying something and do research if there is any actual true information on the internet and then experiment if not, but common sense ain't common :( and unfortunately, not every little thing you can find will always be found in a "morally correct" way because life ain't fair :/
Read my vomment gurther up about Resvue Remedy.😊
Honey is the right Name. Thank you for your giant love for these dogs.
I grew up on a ranch and I LOVE animals. It truly breaks my heart to see animals like this. I know its hard to spend time with animals in shelters as there are simply too many neglected and dumped animals. Thank you so much for taking the time to help the ones that are less likely to get adopted for whatever reason. If I could take them all I would. 🥰
WOW Rocky what a beautiful story between you and Honey! I feel lucky to be able to witness the love between you two it’s so beautiful and inspiring. Thank you❣️
She clearly understood that you were being supportive, her breathing went up a little, her ears were pointed towards you. She is such a cutie!!
Let’s think about this for a minute… they said straight out they don’t want her, they keep putting off paying the shelter fees, since they were on VACATION the first time she was there, it’s clearly not because they can’t afford it!! I don’t believe she got out of the yard, they let her out of the yard because they don’t want her anymore. So sad, as are all these cases, because she’s such a sweetheart, and deserves a loving home, and someone would never abandon her, but give her all the love she deserves!! 🐾❤️
They wanted a dog because others had one but didn’t want the responsibility to care for her. A lot of people don’t deserve a loyal pet. Enjoy your weekend.
@@dennistyler9852 I totally agree with you…👍🏼Thank you. Enjoy your weekend too! 🙏🏼🐾
Exactly; she “got out of the yard”👀meaning, what really happened was we let her out & abandoned her 😢
@@smartmarketing173 Exactly😢, I can never understand someone who could do this, why do they even want a dog in the first place. They are obviously not animal lovers.
You have no idea what their financial situation is. You don't know how long ago the vacation was, or where they went. You don't know if someone lost a job since then. And the fact that she was hurting another dog might've just been the proverbial straw. I am dealing with two dogs who got along fine, then suddenly they're having fights, sometimes several a week, with blood drawn (including mine). It is very difficult, frustrating, frightening, and disheartening. I'm thankful they are SMALL dogs, I can't imagine going through this with one or both the same size as Honey. I'm figuring out ways to manage them without needing to get rid of one, but that doesn't mean everyone can do that. Especially if there are children around. Better for a dog to be surrendered than a child get injured or killed.
She seems so sweet. I can’t believe anyone wouldn’t want her. It’s so heartbreaking seeing how frightened she was. I hope more people consider adoption.
