It was almost certain that Shelby was never going to know the peaceful and full life he had with you. Both of you were blessed to have each other.
You are such an awesome person!
I pray that you believe in Jesus.
Lmao yesss, ending with the lion king on a good note, love it.
Lee you make me want to be better everytime i watch your videos.
Evening lee&all your fur babies🙏🐕🐕🐕❤️❤️❤️Shelbi your free darling from pain&illness 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️love you always🐕❤️❤️❤️❤️
Coming to the realization that you are going to have to face death many times throughout your journey because of the sheer number of animals you have is good Lee. Of course it is always going to hurt because you gave your all to these beautiful creatures. The thing to focus on though is the amazing life they all got to live from the time they landed in your world. The love and happiness they got to live everyday for however long they were with you is what counts. I was a nurse and before I got into nursing I worked in a nursing home and love old people. I used to carry their deaths like weights and it used to make me so sad. Eventually though I came to the same realization as you, that I was in a profession that was going to have a high number of deaths over time and I had to find a way to deal with that better and I did. I focused on the great things about knowing these people and also the understanding that they were now somewhere better and free of pain. God Bless you Lee, you have one of the biggest hearts in the world of animal rescue and I am so glad for all the animals that come to live with you, for however long that is.
😀
LOVE YOU LEE ❤️❤️🙏🙏
bless your efforts
I dabbled ("practiced") with Buddhism 40 years ago in my youth until I found my own path. You are the most genuine empath/bodhisattva that I have encountered. The spirit moves within you!
Stunning Lee. Where and how did you acquire such a beautiful, magical place?
I am so pleased that you have been able to change your views on death. So much better for you and the dogs. Yes, we will miss them but we will see them again. Can you even imagine what it will be like when the time comes to see the hundreds of dogs you have helped and will help? What wonderful chaos it will be! Continue to do what you do so well.
I do love what you are doing 💘❤.
Shelby was definitely greeted in heaven by Mauve and many other fur babies, they are playing together,happy and waiting for that eternity with you and the rest of the pack!
God bless you in all you do to care for his animals here on earth!🌅😎🐶🐱🐈⬛🦮🐎🐐🦙
❤
Good talk 😊XOXO
😌🙏🍀😄
That was a great way to explain and see death. I needed that.
Honey, I know what you say. But you are much stronger than I. I was a volunteer at a cat shelter. There was one cat I really loved, Jaime. He was a tabby found in a garage abandoned by his people, no food, empty water bowl. We don’t know how old he really was, but I fell madly in love with him and he was adopted out 3 different homes, but he always came back. He was happy to be with the shelter. One day he took a turn for the worse and died in our managers arms as she rushed him to ER VET. It broke me. I am so thankful to all of you who do these rescues. I just can’t. But I do financially support rescues. Thank you honey! I’ve watched you absolutely heartbroken over losses in the past, and you are stronger than I. God bless you and keep you 💜
What's with the ending chant? Different!
Lee, you have such a kind soul. Your rescues feel your passion and true love 🐾❤️
Awe, Lee, he is still with you. Shelby boy is free of all that pain, and you will see everyone of them again. Thank you for all of your hard work to provide for all of them.
God Speed! 💖
You are living my dream to rescue dogs. I’m sorry for your loss. My friend rescues Yorkies, she is young and beautiful like you. She takes the elderly, blind deaf ones herself. But…. When one passes away!!!!! She melts down. Her mom , dad and l always hope next will be young healthy one. But when she picks herself up , she’s right back to old elderly& sickly! ❤
I feel the exact same way.. at one time, I had a total of 12 cats n 9 of them were strays I took in.. (the first cat I got as an adult n on my own was named Shelby ❤) saying goodbye to each of them was terribly hard. I'm still dealing with the loss of the very last one of those 12 cats, his name was Spock, he was 23 years old n I had to say goodbye to him on Easter Sunday of this year. I made a promise to each n every one of my furry babies, that when their time came n/or health problems wasn't going to let them have the quality of kitty life they deserved, I would do the right thing, hold them, say goodbye n let them go to the only real forever home all of us have.. Although it's been 6 months, I'm still devastated over losing Spock, he was truly the love of my life n a lot of me died when he did. He was also my only companion in this world. The ONLY thing that keeps me from completely breaking down is knowing that I WILL BE reunited with all of them again n the word goodbye is something I'll never have to say again. I'm not ready for another fur baby just yet but I am hoping, in the near future, I'll be in the position to do something that I've wanted to do my entire life, n that is to be a foster parent n help all the abused n abandoned cats n dogs that I possibly can. Like you do.. Your videos are an inspiration to me n watching you do what you do; the love n happiness you get to experience with each n every rescue is something so precious n so beautiful, that despite the hurt I'll feel whenever I can't save one n/or when I end up losing one I did save due to health problems.. I know in my heart, it's still something that I still want to do.. Like you do ❤ You've changed the life of so many hounds, showed them unconditional love, provided them with a safe home where all of them have good food, fresh water, other furry friends to play with, you've given them a life none of them would of had without you n as unfortunate as it is, there's still many dogs out there who need you ❤ Nobody can save all of them, but each of us can save one or two or three, four, five, ten, etc of them.. This world is a much better place because of you n the Asher house n it's not just animals that need you but people like me need you to.. You're a wonderful human being n knowing that people like you are actually out there, doing what you do, keeps me from losing all faith in humanity that inhabits this crazy world.. May God Bless n Keep You n all your babies safe.. ❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
👍👍❤️❤️

They do not live as long as us..that is hard…
💕🐶
There are a few angels that walk amongst us and I put you in this category. I‘be watched you for years/ the growth/ the losses of others (fur babies) / love everything you do!! When I win the lottery I’m coming to see you with presents ❤❤❤😊😊
The words you said about Shelby hit me so hard because I feel exact the same about my cat Kiki (also Schnucki and Dicke Berta)…. She fought so hard but I lost her on Oct. 1st 😿… she died in my arms 😿😿😿… 2023 is such a horrible year – first my Sissi went missing since Feb. 27th (still missing 😿), then my fur babies Schnucki, Dicke Berta and now Kiki died 😿😿😿
I drop everything when your latest video comes out. Your a priority
I ❤ man… u r the best.
I would've loved to see the Patreon members interact with the dogs. I bet Tommy showed off his favorite toy to all who would see. And I bet Leo was a ham!
Love you Lee!
It is a part of life that their lives are, by natural law, shorter than our lives. All we can do is love our precious animals while we are blessed with time with them. Those of us who rescue these sweet ones make their lives so much better while we are blessed to be with them. ❤💚💜💙
I was not expecting the song at the end. Thank you for that. 😂😂😂
beautiful sunrise and views! the movie "strays" is, so funny…i was thinking, of Asher House watching it! thank you, for everything you do! i do a good " lion king, circle of life " yours was pretty good, though.. lol. xoxo

Oh… my goodness Shelby has passed…? I'm sorry I have been busy and haven't been able to check on the YT for awhile… Although I've tried to check if any new video from Asherhouse almost every day, perhaps I missed it… I'm sorry for your loss. Moreover, I am sad that I didn't get to say goodbye to him…because I really loved him for how he is. Whenever I saw him on the pack walks, he was always right by your side, and that told me how so loving personality he has despite the fact that nobody else could touch him but you…😢
Now even though I'm so shocked and sad I just found out about his passed, it made me feel a little better hearing from you saying that you now see your dogs passing differently. I too, believe the same way as I am looking forward to the time when I can see my dogs again as my time comes. However, it is still hurting when we lose our dogs… Thank you for sharing with us updates on the sanctuary. R.I.P. My beloved Shelby ❤❤❤❤❤
Hello Lee
You should consider writing a book on all the lovely souls that graced your life, and how their Paw Prints and Angel Wings shaped you personally. You inspire me to have a heart.
make friends with death, and carry the pain in your arms, and let it go to the sun, and keep your heart and arms opened, for the next journey of your heart and soul.
We cherish your heart and mind, Chris. My journey with dog death was gruesome, as it was also attached to my people, and vets who had no idea what was going on, so I took over. It was a journey of my soul, on earth being the strongest that i have ever been.I was in shock for a year after BLUE and JAKE died, and because Jim was dying of cancer, I could not share it with him, so I carried the pain alone.
I pray the Lord is in your heart and your Saviour so that you will be reunited with all your animals when the time comes.
Oh my goodness when it’s your time to go to Heaven, can you imagine it’ll be like a sea of beautiful puppies and other animals looking at you thinking it’s about dang time daddy ❤❤❤
I’m so glad you talked about death. It’s one of the main reasons I’ve been hesitant about starting a shelter. Thank you for sharing! You’re a brave soul!
Thank you for your words about the loss of a loved animal. I need it to hear that. It does affect me badly I am trying to learn how to deal with it. Thank you so sharing in short words how you are dealing with it. ❤❤❤
