Watch What Happens When a Woman Tries to Befriend This Aggressive Dog | The Dodo Faith = Restored
This dog didn’t trust people after he was abandoned in the desert but Angela Adan, a dog behaviorist at Marley’s Mutts, changed EVERYTHING.
Special thanks to Poe's foster Angela for sharing this story with us: thedo.do/deserving. To help more dogs like Poe, you can support Marley's Mutts Dog Rescue: thedo.do/marley.

“You matter.I care and I’m here to help you.” That’s just the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard
Imagine saying that to someone depressed
"You is kind. You is smart. You is important."
I felt that one
I really love when i see someone talking like that to an animal, that is the way to do it !
@@TheDodo I wonder.. why don't we export dogs to China, instead of euthanizing them or wasting money on shelters. It will be good for the economy!!!
I love this so much 😭 Aggressive dogs aren’t aggressive; they’re scared and just need someone to show him that it’s not always scary
Just like people. Seriously. Next time one barks at you in KZhead comments, give them a hug.
And this video proves it !!
Yeah this is not always the case lmao, i get it dogs can be sweet but just no. Many dogs can be aggressive because the compulsion to fight for dominance and hierarchy is in their genes. It is not based on fear. As humans we try to condition dogs to abandon thousands of years worth of evolution. But this does not always work. Our ability to domesticate them long term in very recent history, has allowed us to domesticate them better than other wild breeds such as wolves or coyotes,. But don’t forget that even our household pets are still wild animals and the domestication process is not always fool proof.
@@DaedalusR Wolves are not aggressive to humans. They are called "man's best friend" for a reason !!! Bad humans abusing dogs, you can't blame the dog !!!
Dream Catcher Lmao yeah okay, then i suggest you go and try to put a leash around one, or even just pet it. Contact me on my ouija board let me know how that turns out. For future reference, sayings are not meant to be taken literally.
people like this lady go a long way in restoring my faith in humans
Agreed!! Shes awesome!!
This story of love and trust made me cry again. I am a 65 year old male from Germany who has lost his companion after having had about 13 wonderful years together and I am proud to say that I also shared this ultimate degree of love and trust with my dog. This story reminds me of all the good times that we shared. Well, we had no bad times, I guess, because each day was precious and unique. My dog changed my life, too. I am vegan now and a friend of mine said to me that this strong bond between us would unite us again on the other side of the rainbow... I love you, Timo, and I can`t wait to see you again when my time is up. I am sure you will be waiting for me.
What a beautiful comment!!! The world needs more people like you my friend!!!
@@user-hx7fz2kr9o Thank you for your kind words. Let`s use the power of our love to change our attitude towards all our fellow creatures in order to end their suffering and protect and save their lives instead.
@@TiomofeeBeautiful and wise words my friend!!! Such a compassionate person you are!!! Good morning from sunny Cyprus!!!
Indian legend says: “When a human dies, there is a bridge they must cross to enter into heaven. At the head of the bridge waits every animal that the human encountered during their lifetime. The animals based on what they know of this person, decide which humans may cross the bridge... and which are turned away”. That would be karma at it’s finest. You will see them again!
@@linda6987I’ve never heard this! Honestly this would be a perfect entry test for the afterlife. A place filled with animal abusers would probably be a lot like hell and a place with only people that are kind to all living things would be a lot more like heaven.
He's huge and gorgeous how could anyone do this to him. Poor Poe.
But by the end of the video, he gets adopted! He must have been cute as a puppy, but the first owners didn't appreciate him when he grew up. His size or his thick, wolfish fur coat and undercoat, his personality, or something. His lack of socialization makes me wonder if they kept him isolated in the back yard, or tied out on a chain, with virtually no human interaction. Now he finally has the life he deserves!
That was my thought also. Hes just beautiful. You could tell he was a loving sweet dog even from the begining.
@@crazycatladym3027 They all are! None of them are "born bad" - it takes a human to make a "bad dog or cat"!!!!
abundance of happiness in your forever loving home handsome poe
Ao you are saying you trust 700m people?
He's not aggressive!!!!!!!! He's just scared!!!!❤❤❤
Yes........he kinda reminds me of myself.
sweet
Some shelters are "to busy to know the difference. "
they need patience
Ross LoL 😂
He’s only aggressive because he’s terrified and feels like he has to protect himself at all costs. I’m glad you gave Poe a chance. It must be very rewarding to watch him come out of shell.
I agree w u 100%. I've realized that THAT usually IS the situation with the abused dog. They're terrified they're gonna be hurt by humans again🥺
No, the dog was never genuinely aggressive, merely scared. He had his tail down almost all the time. Truly aggressive dogs never have tail down.
@@dionnedunsmore9996 No, abused dogs are docile. Truly aggressive dogs are born that way, and more likely to stay that way when spoilt rotten by the owner.
Idk how people can foster and let the animal go, I could never. They had such a beautiful relationship
I just can't understand why someone would do this to a dog, cat, or a child. Some people just need to not be on the board.
@@g1967 why u like ur own comment like me
@@g1967 demons not real bbbbaka
@Fearless Kugkug The only Baka here is you
@@g1967 im evio devil
meance a cat! No? A dog? No! But a child... eh. Tbh, we deserve it. Humans are absolutely cunts and we deserve it.. I mean. You watch the dodo to so you know the atrocities we commit.
Why would anyone do that?? If you dont want a pet, then dont get one at first place!! And even tho you dont want your pet, or cant take care of it, abandoning it is not the solution!!
Melina ._. Because it’s a made up the story that is easy click bait
@@pleasebeinteresting who hurt you?
@@pleasebeinteresting but how do you know?
Melina ._. Because they have $4.6 Million subscribers looking for a feel good story Look how professionally this is done ✅ music, video editing panning, storyboard , that’s a lot of work . Do you Really think that this was recorded by one person on an iPhone.

He looks like he has some Newfoundland in him. He's a beautiful dog.
@Belle Jar I was looking for someone who figured it out. Extremely difficult to rehome these dogs. Great watchdogs, but no way to turn off the aggression.
@@Onesize17 ya seriously, what was a caucasian/ ovcharka doin just abandoned there? from my understanding they’re pretty rare in America (& ya banned many places). This is not the dog for a typical “rescue mommy” home with any strangers around, hope to god theyre being at least a little careful with placement & preparing the new handler but... certainly doesnt sound like it
Kangal and Great Pyrenees mix. Google images.
@@sylvia106 No ist a kaukasian ovcharka(perhaps Mixed)
@@susannlevy6625 ok maybe. I shared a video. Thanks for the suggestion.
Angela and Poe, you are both wonderful beings. Angela, you were the most loyal, kind, determined friend for Poe; you guided and supported him lovingly and relentlessly when he most needed someone to care for him and love him. I am deeply moved.
Who would abandon a dog there are so many other ways! 😡
I know they could just bring it to a animal shelter it's very cruel 😔
People with no heart
The same type of people who hit dislike. I don’t understand it.
I wonder.. why don't we export dogs to China, instead of euthanizing them or wasting money on shelters. It will be good for the economy!!!
Kk dragon 😔💔
I'd love a Poe to love. My own "Poe" just passed at 15. She was so angry when i rescued her, so mistrustful of humans (for good reason). She blossomed into the most loving, playful and loyal friend ever. Live well Poe! And blessings on your rescuer. ❤❤❤
Bless ur heart! Sorry for your loss, I hope you rescue another baby!!
@@chattycathy8089 Thank you. And I did. Two of them. ❤❤
@@therightquestion2983 I just knew u would! Blessings!!
This wonderful woman seems to radiate calmness, trust, and love. And this terrified dog can pick this up, just watching how quickly he is reacting to her, is amazing. Wonder how many terrified animals have been put to death, because they were too vicious, ( cause no-one had the willingness/ability to put in a little work)?
This woman is both beautiful inside & out and Poe knows it.
YOU ARE SUCH A AMAZING LADY. SWAMP HUGS FROM LOUISIANA.
Much respect to Angela (Marley's mutts)for what she does for these innocent fur babies👍👏🙏 loads of love to Poe😘🐶
She has really nice fences
Ayyy I’m from lousisana I live n Livingston parish 🤙🏼
Lol swamp hugs ❤
She is not at Marley's Mutts anymore, but you can find her on IG: deservingdogs! Amazing person 💕🐾💕🐾
One chubby fluffy lion head a day keep any sorrow away
dadbad67 well he isn’t chubby. it’s just the breed being so big
Yes a big fluffy lion head eheheheh
Looks like a Great Pyrenees/St Bernard mix, very pretty dog
I agree! I like to start my day with these types of videos ❤️ it gives me faith in the world
Grace Haven Caucasian shepherd
I love these happy endings. The people who rescue and love these dogs back to health have my greatest respect and gratitude.
This video still moves me so much. I am so thankful Poe's life was saved.
My dad found our first family dog, Sherlock, abandoned in the middle of nowhere. I can confirm dogs aren't aggressive, they're just scared, and once they realize you love them, they'll turn into cuddly blobs of love.
"You matter, I care and I'm here to help you" Lowkey broke my heart
Every dog deserves to have a human who loves them and lets them know that they matter. 💜💜
Anyone with this much compassion and patience to win over a dog from aggression to affection own special places in my heart! 💚
What an amazing-looking dog! Our family grew up with Great Danes, so Poe would fit right in with me. I wish him nothing but carefree days, lazy nights, and all the love he can handle!
Awwwww Poe! This has made me so sad and unbelievably happy at the same time! I’m going to go and give Bella a big hug! 🙌👍😊
Bella The Labrador every time I watch these videos I cry than go hug my dog and cats!
Desiree Eady I know, it’s heart breaking! I guess we just have to give our pets the best life we can! 😊🙌
My dog's name is Bella too and she's a pomchow but shes already dead. I will never forget her 😥💞
Dane awww! I’m so sorry to hear that! 🙌❤️
@@bellathelabrador4326 Thank you I hope Bella the Labrador have a good life 😊💞
Well, This really made me happy, My dog just died and It’s really hard recovering so, I just love how we all trust dogs.
Aqua Loverzz AJ is hard losing a family member(our dogs) I lost mines . Hope your doing well. RIP to your dog.
Aqua Loverzz AJ - I hope you are doing ok after losing your dog. I lost my boy a few years ago now and I still miss him everyday. Sending love to you and your family
beanybway is hard still to this day. Me and my family is good. Hope you and yours are well..
I know how it feels when u loose ur pet....
Same here, these videos are about the only thing that cheer me up these days
thank you so much for helping Poe to learn and adjust to a lovely new life knowing that not all people aren’t cruel
That big behemoth Poe is a damn rock star. Nice job with Poe young lady.
What kind cruel person abandoned their animals cruelty. They deserves loving and compassion.
His name is Poe and the lady talks like she’s reciting a poem 🤔 Also, Edgar Allen Poe
You have a wonderfully lyrical take on this story!🍀
That might be why she named him that. The ladyis probably a poet.
Fernando Poe, Jr. I'm sorry, I had to do it.
Edgar Allen Poe wrote really dark poems about his feelings after his wife died, so the name suits the dog since it was also abandoned and alone.
Why can’t I have friends like you guys irl
I'm so happy for Poe! Thank you all for the best journey of love a dog (or anyone ) could be on.
Hello Mary, how are you doing ?
I have so much respect for the work you do, and giving some of these precious creatures a chance at a life. Peace and love to you.
He's so beautiful!!!!!!!
Poe just became a big puppy when he learned to trust again!!!❤❤
I am SO GLAD Poe was cared for by Angela - what a compassionate woman. It is truly a gift to be able to make these traumatised animals feel safe and loved. Thank you SO MUCH
thanks for saving this dog. he deserves a good home.🐕
My 1st dog when I was married we found him in the desert in Glamis.... my husband at the time, said we'll take him if he will get up on the 4 wheeler and he did it immediately!!! He was one of THE BEST DOGS IVE EVER HAD!!!!
Wow! This lady is talented and powerful in hope! I'm speechless 😮
That was so sweet. She called Poe a silly guy....that was so sweet. I know that Poe will have a great journey going forward with his new forever home.
Thank you for being the kind, love and trusting soul he needed. You are a blessing and give me hope. The person who left him should suffer daily with the image they left. Who does this.
He is so gorgeous omg
Poe is gorgeous! God bless you for taking the time to calm his fears and allowing him to trust again💕
Poe met an angel! And he learned to fly. 😍
this woman is very poetic i love her voice and she just looks so poetic you are a wonderful person we need more people like you
Hello Deauna, how are you doing ?
What a big, beautiful guy. I’m so glad he was rescued, and saved. Thank you to all involved. ❤️👏
Wow..this was absolutely beautiful to watch. Watched it till the end to see if Poe got a happy ending. So Happy for Poe
What a magnificent dog. And what an absolutely beautiful woman who saved his spirit. This made me cry. ❤
Are you kidding me? This is one of the ugliest dogs I've ever seen.
God bless ya!!! No bad dogs, just bad owners...thank you for your love.
You are an awesome person! Such a sweet spirit for such a sweet animal. You were made for that journey with Poe. Thank you for being willing! Love you sweet Poe!
So sweet! Truly dogs are angels.
Anybody who does rescues and breaks through aggressiveness are heroes ❤️
Poor dog. he deserves the world GO POE!
What a big handsome boy!
What a stunning looking doggo, as a Poe fan I Iove the name x
Twenty years ago, we had a dog named Poe... Everyone assumed it was for Edgar Allan, but she was actually named by our two-year-old . . . for the Telly-Tubby. How embarrassing, right?
@@lidialippold9274 yea i think thats what he's named after as well
@@lidialippold9274 that's is so adorable ! Lmao
No no no Sarah, Im sorry Im going have to correct you there, Im am an avid fan of this channel and over time have learned we now refer to such animals as 'dogos'....Im not sure why either.
rad I will rectify this this straight away xxx
Damn you tattooed American lady, you just made this 6ft3 trucker very tearful... What a lovely human being you are keep on doing your good work your one of the best humanity has to offer, dogs over people anytime, ❤️Nottingham. England 🏴 🇬🇧
Man.. it always gives me an immeasurable amount of respect, knowing that these people are strong enough to save a dog in need, and let them go.. so that they can save more. Those are without a doubt the best humans on earth.
Human shittiness never ceases to surprise me. Poe deserves the best. Thanks to this kind lady for helping this good boi heal ❤
wow what a beautiful transformation of him poor baby doggy he was so scared, but thank God for each and everyone who got involved in his rescue, now he could really enjoying herself be happy and have love something that he probably didn't have before, God bless you all and thank you so much for being a beautiful blessing to these beautiful innocent animals who need help I'm very happy for him 💘💘💝💜💛💚💌💌💌💓😍😍😙😙😙💖💞😚😚😚💘❤❤❤💜💜
I’m so grateful for the people that show compassion and help animals ❤️
Thank GOD you were there for him!
Hello Gail, how are you doing ?
That is a beautiful dog! The person that dumped him like that is evil. He's in better hands now though!
Yees
Thank you for the rescue and a new life for Poe. He is truly beautiful! 🐾♥️🐾
He's gonna spontaneously flip out and kill someone, just watch.
Ive always been a dog lover and only recently have i realized that they do more for us then we do for them.
Man, fostering is so hard, you start with a dog in shambles, end up without a dog... many kudos for all the fosters, with adoption in mind.
What a wonderfully inspiring story. The differences between the person who abandoned this divine dog and Angela Adan who took this dog into her heart and made this video is immeasurable vast.
Po is a beauty. So glad to see his journey from real fear to loving humans again. How people could be so cruel to abandon him in the desert astounds me. If you don't want your dog do the right thing and contact a rescue centre.
Look at his fur, what a beauty. Sick to imagine anyone could do anything harmful to him...
how could anyone abandon something like Poe? He is so beautiful! ... In addition to being useful, of course, to guard your home.
Such a beauty, that dog and that ladies heart.
Angela, thank you for giving Poe the love and reassurance he deserves when he was at his most anxious and terrified moments. ❤
The world needs more people like these.
Thank God for this lady to help Poe and all of the homeless ones after him.
THAT is the most GORGEOUS dog I have ever seen.
Yes! And you sound like a gorgeous person too.
Isn't he though!! Nice n fluffy, huge, strong & his markings too. Wonder type of breed?
“WE will get there Poe” 🥺
This woman is an angel, what a beautiful dog.
What cruelty to animals to abandoned them they don’t deserve it. They deserves loving and compassion and forever home
He's beautiful.
What a beautiful big boy - I'm so happy someone found him and someone spent so much time with him and now he has the love and care he deserves. Thank you so much for helping this beautiful big boy out
Who would abandon such a sweet and beautiful giant in a desert 😡? I am so happy that he was found and lives in a loving home now ❤
I'm sorry, but I would of been heart broken to give him to another. I fell in love with him at the start of this wonderful Vid. God Bless you all.
I’m happy he has a safe and caring home now❤️
Thank you for giving Poe the love & time he needed to feel safe with you in your home & with other people in the world.
This is a very emotional video, and Angela is a talented trainer and first rate human being.
Who ever you are young lady you are amazing. You made me cry, because of your compassion, your willingness to meet him on his terms, your endurance. I re-habed the "Baby" in my avatar from a nasty hundred pound plus, arrogant, de-socialized dangerous hazard, to a being who went on retirement home visits with me. Thank You
Thank you for taking the chance with Poe and with having so much love and patience with him. You are an angel and because of you he has a new wonderful life like he deserves 🙏💙
Freddies mom working her charm again
IF you start rescue, it's like the mafia, once in you can't quit..........you are committed forever or don't start.....it's not like stamp collecting......you can't get bored and quit......it's hard, sometimes crushing, defeating, but you have to go on......
I love stories like this, where people are wonderful and a lost cause animal finds his way into his forever home. It is an uplifting story.
Thank you for giving him a beautiful new life. Too choked up. Makes you despair of humans and then be inspired. Too much.
Poe is amazing 😍 thanks for the vid love the dodo
a beautiful rescue. I enjoyed the days going by.
Hello June, how are you doing ?
Poor baby🥺☹️😩😭😢🥺☹️😩😭😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Bless this woman. It's people like this that give me some hope for humanity.
Life for this big guy is going to be awesome. Thanks to you!! Blessings to everyone involved.
I just read Po died 9 days later.
how terrible , monsters with out a heart .THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU
Rescuers are the angels of this earth
Wow. Is Poe a Leonberger? Sure looks like one! Thanks for rescuing him - and to the guy who called animal control, too. Poe would have suffered terribly out there in the desert until he died of starvation/thirst.
He is just gorgeous. Dogs are just amazing how they can live in the moment and learn to love again. Thanks for saving this big, goofy loving boy! :) I hope Freddy Mercury is doing well. That adorable little spunky pup deserves the best!
What a heart warning story with a happy ending and new journey 💞
I just read Po died 9 days later.😭
She changed Poe from inside and gave him a great life.
He's so lucky to have found you. Poe is a real champion
