Mel is such an angel. She was meant to do this. The animals just respond to her.

I just adopted a 10 year old cat and drove 1175 miles round trip. I found out from the foster home, that I was not the farthest driving adopter. She was in TN and had someone drive in from Colorado. It was two long days in the car, but kitty is a champ and fits right in with my other two. THANK YOU TO ALL YOU FOSTER HOMES OUT THERE. YOU ARE AMAZING AND DOING GREAT WORK.

Shout-out to the person who first wanted to adopt Anna, but wanted them to be adopted together more and still adopted another little pup!!

Rocky, your energy is absolutely contagious. Currently, we have 7 Great Danes - not by choice - but by destiny. 5 of them were rescues. Can we afford them? No. But we eat a lot of casseroles! The dogs eat high on the hog! Shoog was labeled a 1 on emaciation. Callie was left tied to a tree for two days. Poppy was on a 2’ chain grounded by a piece of rebar. No food. No water. Otis Ray was “too big.” REALLY? A BIG Great Dane? CHINKA went through a divorce and came out of it with no home. And life goes on on the mountain where 7 Great Danes rock it. We wouldn’t have any other way.

So wonderful that Elsa and Anna were adopted together. Sarah and Dan are awesome!

Mel is such an angel. She's so sweet and just so loving. Omg can we do something nice for her? She's done so much for these lovely babies.

I'm a cat person, but I'm genuinely so happy whenever I hear about any animal getting adopted. I wish it was possible to find them all homes.

Bonded dogs should ALWAYS be adopted TOGETHER.

Mel's a natural dog whisperer. Those pups immediately relaxed and opened up, thanks to Mel's natural loving connection to them.

Oh man Charlie just😭 broke my heart to see him so scared but i just bawled when he put up his paw. I love him so much. May he heal and live extra long with so much love, treats and cuddles!

Can't imagine not adopting a dog because he only has one ear ! This has nothing to do with his soul as having the potential to be someones' best friend !! He obviously wants to love and be loved... doesn't this apply to all of us ? Thanks so much to Rocky and all thise involved with rescuing and making the effort to find all animals the life they deserve..

Thank you sir for all that you do to help these great animals . My wife and I have adopted dogs from the local shelter but now that I am 87 years old I have physical problems that restrict my movements so I feel that if I adopted another animal and I died it would cause the dog to either wind up in a bad situation or destroyed . Thank you again sir for what you do to help these great animals .😊

Charlie melted my heart. You can see by his scars that he was very abused.

That Labrador takes the treats and you can see he is trying to take it without biting you. My border collie did that. Best dog ever that one. Superbly gentle.

I am so glad that I found this, I am a veterinary technician who works with a lot of shelter dogs in hospital. This man has a heart of gold ! Thank you for doing this ❤

Mel is amazing. Washing and grooming a dog is not easy. She does it with any dog off the street like clockwork. What a special woman. You are a gift Mel.

The lady that cleans the dogs is amazing. You can see how much she loves dogs, they can sense that! Love your content!!

Greta's story WAS emotional as they all are. I can't watch one of these videos without getting choked up numerous times.

That broke my heart when you said they brought momma mastiff back after adopting her with her baby...I can't imagine. I really hope someone adopts her soon or even better one of the people who adopted one of her babies!

I feel like Mel is the Grandma of all these doggies! Such a sweet soul and has such a wonderful way with these pups ❤️

bless the person who had a hold on Anna, that is real love, to understand what's best for 'your' dog, and readily agree to her being adopted together with her sister.💞💞💞

Mel has a magic touch when she bathes the dogs they light up. Thank you Mel for all that you do to bring comfort in the lives of these dogs!

I have my 4th senior rescue adoption right now, spending the last 20 years loving my elder pups has been one of the most precious experiences I have had in life. Now that I'm getting older, the lessons I have learned from their unconditional love, will to thrive and never ending desire to live life to the fullest - are all things that help me face my challenges as I face age related issues now. As much as I have given to them, they have shared so much more with me.... senior pups are special angels. 💓

My brother has adopted labs for many years. He started when his two kids were little. I have lost count of how many he has adopted, old ones, young ones. He has adopted a few that were abused. He gave them a good life with so much love and care, he spoils all of them, they lived out the rest of their lives with him in comfort and love with him and his family. Rescued are the only dogs they would have.

I love that we all love Mel so much. She is a gem and I'm glad she found her calling. Hugging my chocolate lab through all of this.

I am beyond happy for Charlie. He was so shut down and now he looks so very happy in Chocolate Lab heaven. All his siblings make such a house full! I hope Vinnie finds his forever home as well as Mastiff mama. Every dog deserves a great home. Tail wags!!

Mel is ‘gold’.. wish all groomers had her healing touch❣️ Rocky, always Share your videos..keep up your amazing ‘work’🥰

I loved how the little girl was just following Penny around. She was not getting attention, but she just stayed right there to get her chance to touch Penny.

Rocky should have his own TV show. These videos and what he does is perfect for national TV

I grew up with a chocolate lab who was also named Charlie, and now have my own yellow lab named Marshall. Seeing Charlie in the shut down state is heartbreaking because I can't even imagine what it would take to get a Lab to that state. Steve & Marsha, you are incredible! Thank you for giving such a good boy the life he deserves!

I adopted a border collie/ corgi mix from a shelter that rescued him from a kill shelter he was on the list for being put down. He was such a good dog with no problems except being food aggressive which went away shortly after he came home. Two months after we were walking in a mall I saw a border collie/ corgi mix that was just a few months old and was for sale for $1,200.

For the people that adopted Charlie, thank you for being the heroes he needed. Im glad that you two took a chance on him & now he is living his best life.

Charlie broke my heart. Between your time and treats & Mel's special bath I know he must've felt better. OMG!! Someone adopted Charlie!! Yeah!!🤗🙋🏻‍♀️💜🙏🌻🐕

Can we just talk about Mel and what a gem she is? These pups need this gentle, loving soul to help them through this scary time.

Mel is what makes the difference. Everytime she gives a dog a bath it's completely amazing how they react to her. Mel is definitely an angel 😇

Charlie's random handshake was so cute I IMMEDIATELY started to tear up

Yes, Sarah & Dan, thank you so very much for being willing to “go the extra mile “ and adopting Anna & Elsa together!! ❤🎉🐶🐶❤

I’m so happy those beautiful puppies were adopted together. What a lovely couple Sarah and Dan are, nice to know they’ve gone to a loving family. You could feel and see the love 💕 Poor Charlie, he really needs a very understanding owner, he was so happy after his bath. Isn’t Mel the very best ?

Rocky, as a dog training now with a spinal injury, you sitting with dogs, your updates and the love you show these rescue dogs brings me so much joy. I specialized in rescue dogs and adjusting them to new homes with training. I often am talking to the screen telling you do this, try that, o yes, yes!! 😅

Flip won't judge you for getting another dog. You two were clearly very close. If Flip was here, he would want you to be happy.

I'm not a dog person, but honest to Pete, I have cried and cried watching this. God bless you for helping.

Mel is an angle, she has a sweet way of helping all the animals in her care. We need more people like her.

I love seeing great adoptions! The right family will get these loving animals! ❤ I got to be the right person for a rescue dog! He is the joy of my life!

The difference in Charlie is night and day! No more sad looking boy. Just a happy boy! Thank you for adopting Charlie!❤❤

Dogs missing limbs or other body parts shouldn't deter people from adopting. They are just as loving and funny as any other dog. I have a 3 legged dog and she is a wonderful addition to our family. She brought out the puppy in our 10 year old dog and always gives me a reason to laugh.

My Doberman was so active even up to 4 years old. So, I taught him to heel the left front fender of my car going 15-20 NPH. He would do that for 45 minutes. Then we could play frisbee and just walking around a park. He learned so quickly and allied my rescue squirrel to ride on his back in the house. I loved that dog so much. His name Billyjaxx.

Greta. What the HECK??!! She’s so sweet. I inherited a yorkie they had used for breeding. My son-in-law and daughter adopted 2of them and gave me one. She was tiny, 4 pounds, only had one eye, lost most of her hair, her teeth were rotten, and she started to leave a path of bloody drips. I took her to the vet. (The people wrote that she just like Cheetos. They fed her Cheetos) She was really skinny. Anyway, she’d had a caesarean, and they didn’t give her her antibiotic and her uterus was so full of infection it was the size of a puppy. I got her a hysterectomy, teeth pulled, and everything. I bathed her, got her groomed and was told her hair wouldn’t grow back. I started feeding her canned dog food. Her hair grew back, and she had long silky coat. I loved her. I had her for almost 2 years but she started to fall off. I took her to my vet and he said her kidneys were shutting down and recommended I put her to sleep. I took her home and loved on her, and in a few days, I took her back to the vet. Sitting in the waiting room with her on my lap, she suddenly made this loud cry and died right there. It was so traumatic. I cried and cried. How can people be so cruel to a tiny little dog. A sweet little one eyed dog.

I'm so glad Charlie went to a home with other pups who can help him learn how to be a happy pup. So wonderful. ❤

24:10 "You're safe now" *Pugsley perks up* Made my day.

I wasn't sure about the idea of bathing a scared dog, but to see his happiness after was amazing! I stand corrected :D

I love the look Elsa gave you - like she hated really liking you! And then she loved liking you!

Mel is such a sweetheart. What an angel she is for these poor doggies. You can tell they all feel her peaceful, gentle nature💛 may she always be blessed.

When you were sitting with the chocolate lab and he laid down it was almost as if he was like,”dang you too? I didn’t know that humans get locked up here too”.

Omg tears fall as I type this...This HAS BEEN THE SWEETEST VIDEO I'VE LITERALLY EVER WATCHED! THE TRUE CARE AND COMPASSION YOU EXUDE FOR THESE FUR BABIES IS JUST BEAUTIFUL TO WITNESS!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL THE TIME AND LOVE YOU GIVE SO SELFLESSLY IS AMAZING!!! WE NEED MORE PPL LIKE YOU IN THE WORLD, YOU'RE TRULY MAKING A DIFFERENCE💯 IN ALL YOU DO!I'VE BEEN SUPER DEPRESSED Lately, you just helped me smile for the 1st time in a long while!!! Thanks 4 touching my heart and opening my heart and eyes ...

I'm 9 minutes in and have lumps in my throat and water in my eyes. 4 years now with my Yorkie and I don't know how I would make it without her.

Rocky... you have my ULTIMATE respect being able to go into shelters and help these babies. I cant. I do dog rescue, but cant handle shelters... Happy news here in Detroit! Two BONDED sibling pitties found a forever home TOGETHER. Made my week. I was beyond thrilled. Keep up the GREAT WORK!!

God bless his heart. When he put his paw up to shake was heart melting. Beautiful pup! ❤️❤️❤️

I'm always impressed when I see that someone has fostered a dog to help them get ready for adoption. I think it would be great if you could post and describe the procedure for becoming a foster parent. Lots of folks are either not aware of fostering or don't understand how it works. There are probably a lot of potential foster parents out there. You guys are awesome.

My dog is a Pitt mix and it looks like he's part dalmatian. He has one blue eye and one brown eye. He's so sweet and so calm. Totally opposite of the pittmatian, Astro. He's a rescue too. He was supposedly kept in a crate that was too small for him 24/7 except to go potty. Now he's a spoiled rotten boy.

Mel is awesome. She does so much for these dogs. Who doesn’t like coming out of warm shower and laying in bed.

YAY!!!!!! Charlie!!!! He broke my heart, and his adopters put it back together! Thank you Rocky, and community for saving Charlie. He needed someone to see past that first growl.

To niewiarygodne jak ten pan zyskuje zaufanie bardzo ztraumatyzowanych piesków.Wielki szacunek dla kogoś, któremu los piesków jest bardzo ważny.❤❤❤

Charlie broke my heart 💔 Labs of all colors are the most friendly dogs out there! My son has only had black labs. We had a yellow lab when the boys were little and my youngest son has had 2 black labs as an adult. They are the best dogs ever! Good luck Charlie…you’re a beautiful boy ❤❤❤

I cried when I saw Charlie so happy in his new home and he has a friend So heart warming ❤️

So happy that both Anna and Elsa found a good home together - you guys do brilliant work.

I was trying to unwind for the evening, maybe watch a little animal humor video when your video popped up. i have bing watched 3 episodes now. 😳 What a kind soul, you are amazing , sir. When you tell the dogs, I'm sorry for what you've been through". The energy of those words is soothing to their soul. You can see it on camera. Just amazing .Keep up the good work. Be ever blessed! ❤

Those dogs are behaving just like they have been her pups all along.🥰

Mel is amazing! She deserves all of the love she gets.

I just want to take a moment and give a big THANK YOU to everyone who has adopted a shelter animal and shared your love and family with a furbaby that is in need. Also, thank you, Rocky, for all that you do.❤

In france if you give up a dog to the shelter , you have to pay, the dog adoption is a serious act and commitment !! and neglect animals is punished by law

Charlie is so precious 💕 thank you Rocky and Mel your so wonderful.

Soooo glad charlie found his tribe, hes living his best 🤎🤎🤎

GRETA is your dog. You could feel your souls meld together even through the video! ❤️❤️❤️

Jeder Hund verdient das schönste Zuhause 🙏❤️🍀 danke das du diese Videos machst Rocky ❤️

I was so touched by how loving that little girl was with Penny. I'm glad she got such a lovely family!!

So happy Charlie was adopted. What this group does is beyond the norm. Thank you all.

Whoever had Charlie abused Charlie needs arrested, and not allowed around animals, probably children too. Shame on these abusers, God thank you for Rocky Kanaka, and all the living people who are able to help these fur babies.

The chocolate lab is so sweet and tender hearted! He touched my heart deeply!

Albert is precious. Hope he got a very loving home.

Awe, so nice that Charlie is with 2 more choc. Labs, with a family that loves the breed, and obviously make him feel safe. Wonderful result.

Seeing how scared Charlie was is absolutely devastating. And you got it 100% correct. Labs are always so happy and carefree that it feels so wrong to see anything else. Whoever did that to that poor sweet baby, I hope that that karma catches up to them 100 fold. And I hope they are never ever able to do that to another animal ever again.

Mel is amazing. Need more people in the world like her. The bath really helped. Gud luck Charlie.

Mel is absolutely wonderful! If I was a dog, she would melt my heart! Thank you Mel, and thank you Rocky for all the love and care you pour into these beautiful dogs.

Mel is such a sweetheart. So glad these dogs that need a little extra love and attention have her grooming them. There’s still good people left in the world. Much respect. 💪💪💙

Mel is incredible, make sure she knows how much she's appreciated 💜

Wednesday is adorable - how wonderful to sweet that little sweetie pie get the treatment she so desperately needed!! She became a new doggo following her treatment! Argh, the matting and the mildew/mold in her coat was just so sad! Go Wednesday!

Mel awsom to dogs She like the dog wisper she got that loveing compastion feeling for animals

She felt your sadness and laid her head on you, comforting you. Dogs are awesome creatures

I lost my lab a year ago. She was my first ever dog. I got her when she was 10 weeks old. She lived 8 weeks shy of being 15 years old. I miss her tremendously. She was my best friend. We did everything together ❤️

Every Single Time you speak to them.. when you tell them ""I'm sorry..." for al you went through .. ""you're safe now"" .. ""I'm so sorry""

Labs are happy dogs. Amazing dog souls.

Mel makes me so joyous when she works her magic. What a special soul.

@39:10 - "I was tearing up, but I didn't want to let her know that..." She knew immediately, and tried to comfort you. What a sweetheart! 😭

Gosh... Tears streaming from my eyes throughout this video😭So happy seeing these amazing dogs getting the families they deserve❤

The groomer lady, Mel is sooooo sweet! She so good with dogs!

Yay Charlie got adopted 🎉❤❤❤ sending lots of love and hope that all those dogs from the shelter get adopted

I have a chocolate Lab and the contrast between how she and every other chocolate Lab I've met acts, and Charlie, is just heartbreaking. What happened to get a dog from such a friendly, cheerful breed to be growly and terrified? And seeing a *Lab* refuse treats...

I cry over every dog in all your videos but omg Charlie with his family hit me harder for some reason. 🥰

So happy both pups were adopted,so glad, I wanted them both too. Thank you so much for taking them both, I couldn’t see them apart. You do such a good job,getting the dog’s taking care of. Thanks to all that help and all the donations you send God BLESS YOU ALL♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽😇♥️♥️

Mel is just a sweatheart. Every dog melts in her hands.
