Last week, Maria Isabel Benites Chamba was laid to rest at age 95 in Ecuador. Chamba’s family and friends were in attendance to pay their respects at her funeral — but one attendee in particular insisted on doing even more.

It was over 90 degrees (32 C) in St. Louis when the call came in that a nursing dog and her puppies were hanging around a waste area of Midwest Waste in St. Louis.

Benny is a happy-go-lucky dog who doesn’t realize he is disabled. The playful pup is unable to use his hind legs but gets around great in his custom wheelchair.

We live in a rural area where people routinely dump their dogs. Reba, a 45-pound red Queensland Heeler, was one who came to live with us. She is very protective, as this story will prove.

Life is often unfair to little critters. There are many cases of abandoned puppies, cats, and other animals. It’s very sad to see how careless and heartless people can be. Leaving their pets on the side of the road, tied to a tree, and sometimes even worse… That’s why it’s very refreshing to see a happy story with a great ending.

The city of Bali is full of stray dogs. Many shelters and clinics try to help them and save as many as possible, but they are often overwhelmed. That’s why it’s so important for people to do something as well, like not ignoring wounded animals on the streets and helping them out, if they can, of course.

Sometimes relationships go wrong, but the worst part of it is when innocent animals are involved. Especially when animals end up being the ones who take the blame from their owners. This innocent husky was tied to a chain for almost 2 years without access to proper water or shelter—all because his previous owner couldn’t take revenge on his ex-wife, so he picked their dog.

Our heroin had the misfortune to be owned by a sadistic person how not only enjoyed torturing her but also buried her alive and left her to die. Athena is a French Mastiff (Dogue De Bordeaux). She was recently found buried alive by a good Samaritan who was walking his dog. He noticed something sticking out of the dirt. He realized that it was the dog’s head, and he knew he had to act immediately.

We are good pet owners not only because we feed them well, but because we exercise with them, take them to their regular check-ups, and most especially, give them a warm and nurturing home. These are things that this little pup missed out on.

Curled up in the woods, this poor dog had no hope. When someone saw her and showed her love, everything changed!

Two dogs in Saint Louis proved how important to stay by your friends to rescuers. When the rescuers got a call about a poor injured pooch had been abandoned in a domestic garden, they directly went to pick it up. They found a dog by her side, when they arrived to the park.

This story shows us that dogs are man’s best friend. It speaks about 28-year-old owner, Abby and her 5-year-old dog, Bruce, who started barking and acting strange in one morning.
