Rocky, posted separately. If you look, my husband and I will take Charlie if we can get him to Illinois. We are retired, empty nesters, both our dogs passed away last summer within 3 weeks of each other. It broke my heart, and I have not wanted to get another dog until I saw Charlie. We can give him the home and love he needs. We live in a rural area😂 on an acre of land with a full fenced in back yard. Temperpedic dog beds waiting, several lab cousins to play with when he's ready, healthy homemade food, lots of pets and adventures, and an immeasurable amount of love to give. Can you get us any info about flying animals through airlines coach or private airline services? I wouldn't know where to begin. Hey Rocky, you could bring him to us! Check out where Charlie is going to live and play and eat as well as visit some wonderful shelters in our area as well as quite a few breeders. You might find it interesting! Take care 😊

My family and I rescued a chocolate lab who was moments away from being put down, and my mother decided that wasn’t going to happen and we sped over there and adopted him. He had been blinded by his previous owner who gave him horse medicine to heal his heart worms. But he’s in a much better home with us now, and even though he’s blind he knows his way around our house

I’ve had labradors all of my life (I’m 54), and I’ve never, ever seen one act like this. It’s just heartbreaking! This poor boy has obviously been neglected and abused. How could anyone treat an animal so horribly?! I have a yellow male lab right now, as well as a cream colored male Frenchie. All a Labrador wants to do is love you and be with you. I really hope and pray that someone sees that precious boy and adopts him, and loves him to pieces! If I lived closer to you, I live in Michigan, I would come and get him. Thank you so much for all that you do, too.

The fact is that NO dog is born aggressive or depressed. Its the owner who mistreats the animals. It should be a law that to own a dog or any form of animal that you would need a 4 weeks course on how to treat and train the dog. Learn how to read the dogs signs.

Hello Rocky. I am a cat person,I have a cat named Rocky, because when i finally caught him as a kitten, he had to be a Fighter(Rocky) or he wasnt going to live. He was that sick. He is now 11 and fathered 8 kittens when he was 2. I'm here to say that watching your channel and these dogs stories just stomps right on my heart. No animal should go unloved or abused in any way. Bless you for what you and the shelters do. ❤🙏🙏❤️

The way this lady is describing Charlie jumpy is how my cat acts. She was a stray that wandered up to my moms and I took her home with me❤and she’s my lil cuddle bug and she tries to tell me what to do and when to go to bed 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it’s funny. She misses me so much when I leave for work, that once I’m home she’s stuck to me like glue lol my fur baby and hip baby 🤣🤣🤣🤣🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🥰

I just can’t watch these videos. The thought of anyone abusing dogs or really any animal like this cuts me to the core. Grateful to all that help these dogs find their way to a much deserved loving home!

I am so impressed with what a great shelter this is! Everyone cares so much, and there are so many people who put in the work to help these dogs get adopted. All the staff is amazing, especially the groomers who go above and beyond to help these dogs look good and feel better. And if I still lived in California, I would be driving there now to adopt Charlie! He'd have a wonderful home with me and my two rescues, and gets lots of walks, good food and plenty of cuddles. ❤❤❤

I have a big ole choccie lab and to see this little beauty so sad and nervous is heart breaking. He is so lonely and scared if only I lived in the US I’d be there in a flash. Hope he works out. No dog should be this scared ❤❤

So much love and prayers for a loving and forever home for CHARLIE....when he gives ROCKY his paw - I can't even💔. One of the most important messages in this Video is that ANY breed can find themselves in a shelter - Teddy and Charlie prove that to be true - ADOPT don't SHOP! Thank you to Mel for the amazing love and care she shows her clients - Charlie was in such need of TLC and the kisses he gives Mel - well you know! And last but not least ROCKY thank you for your advocacy!

My heart is breaking for the Chocolate Lab, Charlie. It usually they are pretty bright & outgoing... have never seen the Lab shut down like that... Not sure what he went thru. Thanks Rocky for all the work he is an angel!

I had a black lab and my lab was always happy and to see Charlie like this you’re right he must’ve been very severely neglected and I’m so happy to see him get his bath and break out of his shell. I’m so happy to see him happy and feeling good and I hope he gets a good home, and he never goes to anything bad ever again please my God protect him and all of the animals.

I've just discovered your channel as a way to help me through the loss of my beloved Sophie who passed last wednesday 13th Sept. Watching this she has reappeared as Daisy in 4. She is an exact of my Sophie. Everything about her is my Sophie He colouring and mannerisms, the exact. What a shock but so good to see this "Daisy". Has made me smile again today. By the way I'm in Australia watching. Love your content, please keep posting.

Ahhh Charlie is so sweet!!!! I have a third home silver lab, the descendant of the chocolate... she is kind, gentle and loving.. Even nice to frogs, bunnies, and chickens. And she was partially abused, before I came. Best dog ever.
