As we reflect on the progress of the mission to save dogs, we are thankful for everyone’s support. Everything the organization does relies
Slowly but surely he started winning them over with unconditional love and attention. Now everyone loves him, including my other dog. Goldens are the best breed. Depends on the breeder. Some breed for looks, others for personality. This pup seems particularly calm in general. Many Golden’s I know are sweet but hyper and need training […]
I would have siblings where one would sleep in the armpit, the other between my legs. Waking up in the morning, typically the leg one would have jammed his entire body between my head and the pillow, making HIM the pillow! This pair, the mother disappeared at 4 weeks old. Had to bottle-feed the entire […]
I’ve tried changing directions when she goes to the end of the leash, i’d try staying in one spot and walking the other way when the tension broke, i’ve tried literally every single thing i can think of. As of this day she’s 4 years old and the best she does is come back to […]
So around 10 days ago me and my gf adopted a female Podenco from an organisation. The first couple of days everything was fine, but after around day 4-5 she developed seperation anxiety – I cant even leave the room for 5 mins with my gf without her barking like absolutely insane. I asked the […]
When I unexpectedly had to put my 13-year-old Aussie down last spring, the vet at the emergency clinic was so empathetic and reassuring after he had passed. She just sat with us for a little bit even though it was very busy, and I appreciated that. It helped with the guilt. Saying goodbye to him […]
I have had my first pup since she was 6 months old. Rescued (eh hem, stolen by an old roommate) from a shed she was locked in (and mistreated). Over the past 5 years, we’ve become inseparable. We are best friends. She gets SO sad and lonely when I leave, I thought rescuing her a […]
I was looking for a cat to adopt for a couple of weeks, because while I love dogs a lot, I’m afraid my depression would make me unable to take care of one properly. I wouldn’t want to bring a dog into my life without knowing I could take care of it as well as […]
About a year ago I adopted a 3 year old Husky Malamute mix. His background is: he was originally taken by animal control somewhere in California (no idea why), rescued from being euthanized and brought to Michigan where he was in a kennel for 5 months before being fostered out. He was in at least […]
Hi everyone. I know this topic has been talked about extensively on this subreddit and online, but I would appreciate some guidance with my personal experience. I adopted a 1.5 year old dog from a shelter about 9 days ago. He is as good a dog as I could hope for given that I have […]
My current dog was found in a 10’x10′ enclosure sunburned, without food or water, emaciated, covered in fleas and ticks, and raw pressure sores and hot spots everywhere on his body. He was so fortunate that a local outreach happened to find him when they did and get his previous owner to surrender. I remember […]
