The sad truth is that dogs who are underweight or emaciated often wind up in animal shelters. It pains me to see creatures endure suffering until they are almost unrecognizable.
Despite being mistreated, some animals still have affection and trust for people, while others shrink in fear when they see a rescuer. It is not worthwhile to periodically reflect on what the latter have experienced.
It seems inconceivable to me that I could ever wish to cause harm to an animal. Furthermore, I find it inconceivable that anyone could derive any sort of pleasure from doing this.
That being said, I think dogs have a sixth sense that lets them tell the difference between good and terrible people.
Individuals who care with animals understand the significance of giving a neglected animal the chance to make contact. While playing and petting a dog to reassure it that you are not a threat is natural, it’s not always the greatest idea to do so.
Some folks just find it incomprehensible that a dog that has experienced cruelty might be surprised by a stranger.
Edie, the mixed-breed abandoned dog, would be euthanized in a few hours. She was terrified of people, and it had been a very long time since anyone had showed her any concern. Her fur was disheveled and she appeared to be severely malnourished.
You had to be an actual animal lover to give Edie another chance.
Watching the initial part of the video is difficult. Edie doesn’t know what to do because she is so afraid. She shakes her whole body and lets out a bark because she thinks this man is a threat.
But in the end, the man in the video is able to seize Edie and stop her from running away. He can now be near her.
The creation of a trust agreement proceeds swiftly after that. Edie begins to see that his intentions are not malicious; rather, they are to assist her. She virtually shows the moment she realizes she won’t be put down any longer.
Watch Edie’s reaction in the video below as she learns she’s been saved:
Let us take this opportunity to express our gratitude to those who dedicate their lives to meeting the needs of animals.
Without all of you, the world would be a much worse place for our defenseless four-legged pals.Tell others about this movie so that more people can see Edie’s incredible transformation.
Meet the two kids Sandra Bullock raised with late partner, Bryan Randall
In 2010, Sandra Bullock received a phone call that changed her life forever. “Your placement is here,” said the voice on the other end.
A few weeks later, she was on a stage, accepting her first Oscar for her appearance in The Blind Side, but she didn’t care she was there. “All I wanted was to go was just go home and feed Lou” she said of her newborn, whom she had been waiting for years to arrive.

In 2005, after Hurricane Katrina devastated Louisiana by flooding its grounds, Sandra Bullock had a feeling that inspired her decision to adopt a child.
“Katrina happened in New Orleans, and something told me, ‘My child is there.’ It was weird,” Bullock said in an interview with Today’s Hoda Kotb.
Years later, in January 2010, Bullock received the call she had been waiting years to receive.
Years later, in January 2010, Bullock received the call she had been waiting years to receive.
“He was unexpected, he was not planned. I got a call one day, ‘Your placement is here,’ and that’s after years after having filed it, years,” the 59-year-old star of Speed tells CBS News.
Little Lou
Gushing over Louis Bardo Bullock, the three-month-old boy from New Orleans she secretly adopted in 2010, Bullock said, “I looked at him like, ‘Oh, there you are.’ It was like he had always been there,” she recalled. “He fit in the crook of my arm. He looked me in the eyes. He was wise. My child was wise.”
The Miss Congeniality star adds, “The beautiful thing that I was constantly told was, ‘The perfect child will find you. You will find your child.’ But you don’t believe that when it’s not happening. When you’re going, ‘Where is my family?’ When it does happen, you know exactly what they’re talking about.”
Weeks after Lou arrived, Bullock was on stage at the Kodiak Theatre, accepting her first Oscar for her starring role in the film, The Blind Side.
But Lou owned her center stage and she wanted to be at home, with him.
“All I kept thinking about was, ‘He’s at home.’ Like, I didn’t care. I didn’t care that I was there, I just wanted to go home. And then I was sewn in the dress. I was sewn in the dress, and I had to get myself out of the dress, but all I wanted to do was just go home and feed Lou.”
Only days after, her marriage to reality star Jesse James came crashing down and Bullock became a single mother to an infant.
Bullock said, “I mean, so much had happened. How do you process grief and not hurt your child in the process? It’s a newborn, they take on everything that you’re feeling. So, my obligation was to [Lou] and not tainting the first year of his life with my grief.”
‘Louis’ got the stage’
“No one understands the shift in priorities about having a child in your life … until you have a child in your life,” Bullock said of shifting her focus from career to mom. “It naturally shifts…he showed up and now, Louis’ got the stage.”
Growing up in a healthy, happy environment, little Lou one day looked up at mom and predicted “I’m going to have a baby soon.”
Though Bullock admits she wasn’t planning on growing her family, she listened to her son, who planted the seed.
“I realized at that time, maybe he knew something. And when I think about it, it would have been around the time that Laila was born,” Bullock said. “It’s Louis’ way. Louis has a very strong way. He’s a fine leader, and he led me to Lai.”
Laila, who was living in foster care in Louisiana, is her daughter who joined the family in 2015 when she was three.
Recalling Laila’s trauma from being in childcare, the Ocean’s 8 star said, “She’d be in the closet with all her clothes on, she’d be on a bookshelf, she’d be hiding, she’d always be ready to leave,” the actress recalled of her daughter, adding that she always made sure Laila knew that she wasn’t “going anywhere.”
She then shared a conversation she had about Laila with Bryan Randall, the father figure to her children, and her partner from 2015 until ALS claimed his life in 2023. She said, “My partner said to me, ‘When she’s been with us longer than she hasn’t been, I have a feeling we’re going to see a change.’”
He was right. Recently, Bullock described Laila as “unafraid.”
“She’s a fighter, and that’s the reason she’s here today. She fought to keep her spirit intact. Oh my God, what she is going to accomplish. She’s going to bring some real change.”
Lou, now 13, “is super sensitive…He’s wise and kind,” the Bird Box star tells People. “I saw that when they handed him to me. There was a spiritual bigness to him.”
Though fans will be disappointed, the versatile actor is scaling back her work schedule to again be a single mother.
Bullock last appeared in 2022’s The Lost City with Channing Tatum and Bullet Train with Brad Pitt.
“I can be creative, I can be part of a community, but right now, work in front of the camera needs to take a pause,” she said.
