As always you and your team are an inspiration! If only the world had more humans like you!

My beagle Bali is sending all the doggies but especially Tina a big lick! 🐶

You’re such a wonderful human being Niall. Like so many others, the very first thing I do every morning is check what you’ve posted on instagram. Tina, Rodney, King Whacker m, Buttons…these dogs bring such joy and hope to so many. Rescue dogs are the best. My boy George was rescued by the RSPCA at 4 months with a broken leg. We adopted him at 6 months old and now at 4 years old he’s a therapy dog and we visit a hospital to bring a little happiness to people having a bad day. Keep up your wonderful work ❤️🐕

Every day I wake up, and the first thing I do, (with a cup of tea!) is watch your insta story. The work you guys do is amazing. It's tough hearing the sad news, but knowing you have given these dogs dignity is truly inspiring. Love to you and the doggy crew. xxx

I hadn’t realised that Tina had been diagnosed with a terminal condition, Niall. I don’t know how I missed that because I have followed you almost from the start on this incredible journey and I usually begin my day with your Insta. This is so sad. But I am so grateful to you for rescuing her and making her final months happy, safe and content for her. You take on so much, Niall, but we all appreciate everything you do. You are an inspiration and a reminder that when all seems lost we still have hope. The power of love is immeasurable ❤️

"In my little corner of the world that I’ve created and using the lens I choose to see things by there is only kindness, love and hope. "

What a wonderful quote from you. Mirrors another of my favorites from Ricky Gervais in AfterLife about taking care of your own little corner of the world.

Much love to you and all the dogs and helpers in your corner and around the world.

In the mornings you are the only post I want to read. It’s not always happy-but most of the time it’s so uplifting I can start my day. If it’s not happy, and there is suffering-I deal with the reality and think about what I can do to change my little corner of the world. I watch for dogs that might be homeless. I feed the kittens and am trying to learn to trap cats to TNR(trap neuter release). I just thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sometimes it hurts to see you lose a little soul. But their life was so much better for knowing you.

Hi Niall, thank you for sharing your story and your love for these dogs with us. I don’t know if this helps at all, but I have a dog who had acute renal failure who was not expected to live. It turned into chronic renal failure and she’s been living joyfully with Stage 2 renal failure for two years now. We don’t know what the future brings and dogs are amazing resilient beings. Much love to you and Tina 🧡🧡🧡

It’s incredible that you’ve sterilized so many dogs. I know you have more to go, but that number is amazing. Kudos to you and your team!

Grateful for you and your team and I hope your model of caring for, and sterilizing, dogs will spread to other parts of the world 🌎

Thank you for sharing! I agree.....one of the hardest things to go through in life, is the loss of a fur baby. We lost two (2), last June, within two (2) weeks of each other. Ed and Asia. I miss them everyday. That being said, we adopted a pair of beautiful fur babies, May 1, 2023. They are father and daughter.....Max and Polly. They are beautiful and as always, they make me smile every day! Thank you so much for what you do.....you truly define what it is to be selfless and not selfish. Continue your exceptional work and thank you for emulating what it means to have a "servant's heart"!
