    I started watching your channel when your life hit the fan. And your not having Occy, I couldn't even imagine. And then in July and August I lost both of my two dachshunds to old age. 3 weeks apart. It has been devastating. Being alone, without anyone here with me, especially my boys now has been a really big adjustment. To see you two reunited has truly warmed my heart. Give Occy some extra loves from those of us who lost our fur-babies. I am sure Lee is missing him too now. Enjoy your time together.

    This is soo cool. I had a stint nursing in Aussie for a while, leaving my border collie at home in New Zealand and I was away from josh for 8 months, I missed him so much and my reunion was going to be at the airport the night I got home, he was to be waiting in the car at the airport for when I got off the plane. I was so excited to see him and as soon as I came through the arrivals I said to my b friend is josh in the car, did you bring him and the look in his eyes I will never forget. My heart sunk, his said he’s not here, he is dead, I am so sorry. I collapsed. Josh had unfortunately died that morning, he had put his paws up on the gate and somehow got his collar caught in the gate, freaking out he panicked and flipped himself in a circle, strangling himself. My heart broke…. So it warms my heart to see this beautiful reunion. RIP joshy I love you boy x ❤

    I know that feel My cat Boobear was a kitten at the time and I was in the hospital for a bit I thought he was going to forget about me so I begged and begged my husband to bring him in for visit bc he was super small and slept most the time! I mean i pulled out the punches Boo was 6 weeks old and I was like he wont remember i am mommy lol. Andrew (hubby) bless his heart brought him in for the remaining time and it lifts your spirits and he took him home after I slept for the night. When I finally left Bc I had a private room the doc and nurse said they knew but Boo made my spirits better and in hosp thats important!❤🐾🐾❤

    It takes a special kinda person to be able to care for your "Ex's" dog, however I feel like this was just as hard for Lee to have to say good bye to Occy. She's spent several yrs with him as well. A part of Lee's heart will always be with Occy and vice versa for him..

    Brings back memories of bringing my kelpie Hinto back to Canada from Perth. I had to leave him with my then boyfriend for about a month. I was in New mexico and he was flying into LA where I'd pick him up and continue onto Canada. Two hours out of Albuquerque my car died and I was stuck on the highway. It took hours to get back to the city and get a rental car which meant i had 12 hrs to complete the 12 hr drive through the night and be at the airport, with no time to rest. Oh, and I hit LA at morning rush hour and had to cross the city. None of that mattered when they brought the kennel out and I got to see my best friend. Nice to see you two together again!

    People often say "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree", to be meaning that a child will grow up to be like their parent. Watching Occy in the videos, it's incredibly evident that "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Glad your baby is back where he belongs. Sending you both much needed healing thoughts at a time you need it most. Sorry about your loss.

I truly can’t wait to see more future videos with Occy in them! Enjoy your time together again! I hope you take a good couple of weeks off to enjoy Occy’s company again, you both well and truly deserve it! 😌

    Good point. Though I did notice a time or two when my screen jumped and I missed the like button, caught and corrected it. One can only think that it is was because they wanted Lee to keep the dog. But, it was not her dog. It is a pity she did not have one of her own....taking care of another being matters. Safe travels to these two. RIP to Lee. Condolences to Lee’s family and friends, and especially to Max and Occy.
