@NiallHarbison He is so happy to see you 😃😃

Rocky has found his voice. He has settled in well now and loves singing. I think he might be asking for smoked salmon or another beach trip ❤️

INSTEAD OF WATCHING AN HOUR OF NETFLIX TONIGHT. This 1 hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years. Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.

I’ll never forget his red eyes bulging out of his head. He was in agony. When I tried to move Him Rocky he would just collapse in fear. His blood results said he was as good as dead. Today just 23 days later he is standing tall and proud with 50% eyesight back. ❤️

@NiallHarbison I love those ears x

Jimbo is up and about. He is still quite poorly but I convinced him a little 200 yard walk would do him good. He is winning his battle now… (1/5) 🧵

There were plenty of people who told me to put Rocky out of his misery. To let him go. It was cruel on him to keep him suffering. I even doubted my own decision to fight for his life at times. He just seemed so bad. The blood results and his general eyesight and functions were in such poor shape I worried I might be keeping him alive more out of false hope and for my own dreams. Luckily Rocky had other ideas too. He very much wanted to live and I could see the from day 1. His eyesight if partially back and improving by the day. His bloods are getting better. He is packing on the pounds. Most of all Rocky feels loved and safe and he has lots of dog and human friends now. He belongs. He sprinted into that water today and me and him forgot about all the hard days and the tough worrying nights. He really is a very very special dog ❤️

If your friend broke their leg you would drive them to the hospital, sit with them through physical therapy, and not say a word about the trash not being taken out. Nobody questions a broken leg. But when I went through two years of severe depression, people looked at my kids, my house, and my bank account and told me to get over it. That is the part about mental illness that nobody talks about enough. You can't see it. And because you can't see it, people assume it isn't real or that you don't have a good enough reason to be feeling it. Kevin Love and I got into exactly this in this episode of the No Magic Pill podcast. A man who had every external marker of success and was still fighting battles that nobody around him could see. It doesn't matter what you have on the outside. That is not how this works. Have you ever been dismissed or told to just get over something you were genuinely struggling with?

@MarioNawfal So heart warming

The UK just deployed a political weapon it's only used once before in modern history. And nobody is talking about what it just backfired into. 🚨 🚨 🚨 KEIR STARMER BANNED FOREIGN JOURNALISTS FROM ENGLAND TO STOP A RALLY → IT PRODUCED THE LARGEST ANTI-GOVERNMENT MARCH IN YEARS 🚨 🚨 🚨 The Home Office issued entry bans on 11 foreign nationals ahead of the 16 May 'Unite the Kingdom' rally in central London. Rebel News founder Ezra Levant. Multiple journalists. Commentators. Banned from the country. To stop a march. Metropolitan Police deployed 4,000+ officers. Live facial recognition. Drones. Dogs. Horses. The result: tens of thousands — some estimates reaching hundreds of thousands — flooding the streets of London anyway. THE WEAPON: → UK Home Office entry bans — 11 foreign nationals barred from the country → Prime Minister publicly labeled the rally "extremist" and "hatred and division" → Starmer framed it as "a battle for the soul of our nation" in direct pre-rally statements → Police mobilized at a scale typically reserved for state visits or terror threats → Live facial recognition deployed across central London → Rival pro-Palestine march simultaneously permitted on the same day → Metropolitan Police prepared for 50,000 — the actual crowd exceeded preparation → Government rhetoric amplified international media attention across the US and Europe THE TARGET: → A march organized around "national unity, free speech, and Christian values" → Organized weeks after Reform UK seized 1,350+ council seats and control of 13 councils in the 8 May local elections → Reform's gains came primarily at Labour's direct expense — Essex, Sunderland, council after council THE MATH: → Reform UK: 1,350+ seats gained in a single election cycle → 13 councils flipped — including Essex with 42 seats → Starmer's response: ban journalists, deploy 4,000 officers, call the march extremist → Outcome: the bans became the story, the march became a symbol, and the streets filled anyway Read that again. 💀 Every ban Starmer issued handed organizers a government-censorship narrative 💀 Every officer deployed turned a political rally into a national confrontation 💀 The suppression didn't shrink the movement — it advertised it ⚠️ Reform just proved it can win elections. The march proved it can also fill streets. ⚠️ Starmer called it "a battle for the soul of our nation" — and then lost the visual battle on live television ⚠️ This isn't a fringe moment. This is what a political realignment looks like in the streets. They're showing you the arrests and the police lines. They're NOT showing you what this sequence actually means — a government that just lost 1,350 council seats in one night responded to the aftermath by banning journalists and calling a march extremist, and the streets answered with the largest visible opposition mobilization in years. You don't ban foreign journalists to stop a fringe event. You ban foreign journalists when you're afraid of what the footage will show. And you only deploy 4,000 officers with drones and facial recognition when you already know the crowd is going to be too large to ignore. Process that. Most people won't see this. RT to change that. 🔥 I'll keep you updated as this unfolds, turn on notifications this is EXTREMELY important.

@NiallHarbison What an improvement!! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Sometimes I forget how bad the dogs were when they came in. I was wondering why he was taking so long to bulk up this morning. But then I looked at the pic from 3 weeks ago. Some difference. He’s a chunk monster now 🥳

Myself and Rocky would like to wish you a happy Monday morning. He says he is going to attack the week. His eyesight and weight getting better by the day. He says he loves being alive now ❤️

@NiallHarbison I smiled the whole way through this clip. ❤️❤️🥰🥰

Mr Rocky had his first ever T-bone streak today. He said it was the best day of his life. It’s only 3 weeks since he came in so close to death and plenty of people said he should be put to sleep. Unbelievable scenes ❤️

Our senior dogs had a big beach day out. I promise this will make you smile from ear to ear ❤️

12 days difference in these photos. Rocky was broken. Terrified and lashing out. His eyes were red raw and bulging with pain. Look at the soft and dignified dog he is now. He can also see quite a bit. Rocky was down but he wasn’t out ❤️

@NiallHarbison @thejewel4 Your updates make me so happy. I love watching the dogs thrive and how kind you are

Today I introduced Rocky to my own dogs Hank and Chance. It’s the first day he has been well enough and can see enough to interact. A little scary for Rocky as Hank is so big. Some teeth were shown. But look at them all by the end. ❤️
