This kind couple rescue dogs and in these two videos, they've taken in Amara, who's very scared and keeps hiding in the bush. See how nicely it all turns out with the application of lots of tlc. :)

Bit of a pita insisting to watch on YouTube and denies us a nice preview picture. Shame.

All rescue stories are inherently good stories, because have a good ending. The really difficult rescues are the aggressive large dogs, don't see many of those.
Tell you something that has nothing to do with the actual rescue? Couldn't stand the way that guy talked, but that is neither here nor there. The story was about the dog, and she is now in a loving home, mission accomplished.

When I get a chance I'll use the YouTube link it gives to it.
Been busy tonight trying to keep my youngest furby away from the fence line where the skunks have been playing.

Ya, I know and it's what I was saying. Bit of a pita that.

Watching the two videos does take a while, so set aside about an hour and have a cuppa of your favourite beverage to fortify you as you watch them.

What bothered you about his voice then?
Somethings you can't explain, just a feeling, from the moment I heard it, this underlying 'whine' tone; saying 'good girl' 'good girl' all the time, the way he finishes the word 'her', oh, doesn't really matter what I think, the dog is now fine, as I said before: mission accomplished.

@AW hey AW, I'm curious now, what animal is your furby? Whatever it is, I reckon I understand why you don't want him anywhere near where "perfumed" skunks have been....🦨

She's a 2 year old mix breed. DNA results show the main two breeds are Australian cattle dog and North American pit bull with a little beagle and Labrador retriever thrown in.

They basically own both couches.... the one in the background the older mini Doxie hogs... and Maggie hogs where she's at in the picture.

I couldn't see the videos either... super cute dog @Astro What

Our 4 pound chihuahua sits in the middle of our couch in between my husband and I. It's her padded perch and she expects to be waited on lol.

@AW, thank you for the photo, from the photo Maggie looks quite feisty, while the Doxie peacefully sleeps.
I waited to speak to a friend of mine who had an Australian cattle dog years ago, and she said he did have a mind of his own, and did also like to herd the family. I remember him, he looked a bit like an Alsatian and he had pricked ears.
As your Maggie is a mix, hence the floppy ears and the white fur, and what a mix she is; with the pit bull in her she also must have a mind of her own; but maybe it is tempered somewhat with the beagle and Labrador genes in her DNA?
Lovely multicolored ears, and her expression is actually not fierce at all, but rather warm and sweet. Still, I certainly would not attempt to take her treat lying at her feet.
I love dogs.
