00:00When we go to rescue the dogs from the city shelter, we always look who is in the baddest
00:13condition.
00:14They bring every dog on the streets here, 1,200 dogs live at this place.
00:25Borats live like this three years, in really, really, really bad condition.
00:38But he was still so full of love, I see him and say, can you, can you catch me?
00:46And so we start with him and then we go to the vet.
00:54For 11 years, I don't have nothing to do with dogs.
00:59I make a tattoo and then I adopt a Frenchie named Mia, she was everything for me.
01:07So I start to love dogs.
01:09Five years later, I start with safety dogs.
01:24We cut the fur from his body and at this moment he was so thankful.
01:53And then he comes to my rescue ranch.
02:13In this pack, everyone is from city shelter.
02:20They are really good friends.
02:26I look at these dogs like my kids.
02:29We can make adoptions, but only when we are really good family.
02:34People will love them.
02:36Here they have Medicare, they have food, water, and they are free.
02:44They have their pride back.
02:48Do you think he's grateful?
02:49Is he happy to be on the ranch?
02:51Yes, definitely yes.
02:54Borat was in really, really bad condition, but they are so lovely, so happy dogs, so thankful.
03:01Borat is a fighter.
