Our hearts truly go out to senior dogs that find themselves in need of a home. We realize that they are in quite a predicament, and often, they are overlooked for younger dogs at the shelter.

The callousness of some people is just astonishing. Being in the rescue business means having to face some pretty heartbreaking moments. And no matter how many times animal rescues have to deal with sad cases, it doesn’t get any easier knowing that there are some pretty cold-hearted people in this world.

All dogs deserve a loving, stable family environment where they will be treasured. Sadly, not all dogs are fortunate enough to get this kind of happy experience straight away. It is heartbreaking to think that there are many dogs who will live their lives alone on the streets, completely unloved.

The world is made up of all kinds of adorable animal friendships. But perhaps one of our favorites happens to be Heidy and Loulou.

Dogs have an unwavering loyalty to their families. This is one of their many fine attributes, and one of the reasons why they are often referred to as being “man’s best friend.”

Baby animals have to make up 99% of all the content on the internet – who doesn’t love watching that stuff? Lots of us have these little animals in our homes (we call them pets) and still can’t get enough!

Cats and dogs don’t always get along. In other cases, they are best friends who help each other out in tough times. We already wrote about the cat who comforted his anxious dog brother when their humans were away. Now we have a blind dog who navigates the world with the help of his “seeing eye” cat.

Friendships are built on trust, respect, and in the case of a 15-month-old puppy and a brumby (Australian term for wild horse) colt – patience.

As we near the one year mark of when COVID-19 began picking up steam and making an immense impact on the world, it may be easy to forget those who have served us.

There are many things that I have come to understand in my thirty years of life. But one of the big mysteries that still completely baffles me is the fact that people can be outright cruel to animals.

Several months ago, Brian Myers adopted a 6-year-old German shepherd named Sadie from the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge in Oakland, New Jersey. Sadie was a sweet dog, but like many shelter dogs, she came with her baggage. The shelter staff noted that she seemed to display a lot of anxiety and trust issues towards men, but surprisingly, she seemed to take a liking to Myers.

If there is one thing we know about dogs, it’s the fact that we love it when they go places with us. It doesn’t matter if we are going around the block or across the country, having our dog by our side is the only way to travel.

Like most military K-9s, 5-year-old detection dog Bogi played a key role in fighting crime by helping her trainer and handler, Marine Sgt. Angela Cardone, sniff out drugs.
