Tiny Dog Shows Gratefulness Towards Rescuers

Crying in a shelter does not help the scared dogs who need a home. So Angela Dan never did every time she goes to foster a dog. But Freddie was different, she just melted Angela’s heart, and she could not hold back a few tears.

Angela drove four hours to get this poor dog. When Freddie was given to Angela, he was wrapped in a blanket. Angela did not realize how tiny she was until she was able to hold her.

He was very skinny, and his paw was not quite normal. She found out that seventeen of Freddie’s teeth were removed and his legs were spayed out. Freddie was also underweight and scared.

This does not look like a dog who had a good life. Medically, it will be a challenge to take care of Freddie, but Angela was ready to take care of him. She knows that he is so deserving of it.

Angela knows when a dog is thankful, and Freddie shows his gratefulness for Angela multiple times. Freddie knows that he is safe and properly cared of. Angela has even taught him a trick called the T-rex which he has mastered.

Freddie is just the cutest thing when he does that trick. There are people who have questioned Angela why she still fosters special needs animals when they can pass away anytime. Her answer is simple.

These dogs teach her to appreciate life as they come. No need to worry about the days that passed or the days that are yet to come. These dogs teach her that every moment needs to be enjoyed and appreciated.

When the dogs look at Angela with pure gratitude, she knows that she is doing something right. She will be never tired of taking care of her foster dogs as she knows that they all deserve the best of life.

Man Who Rescues A Dog From A Deserted Island

Traveling is an excellent time to relax and explore a new place. But if you’re lucky, it might be a chance to save a life. Dave Foster was able to do just that.

David was on a cruise to the Amazon where one of their stops was a deserted island. When they got near, he saw something move. When they got closer, he saw that it was a dog in bad shape.

It was skin and bones, yet it was very happy to see people. Maybe it knows that people would mean that he gets to eat. David knew that he could not leave the dog on a deserted island so he convinced the owner of the boat to bring it with them.

Not all the passengers were happy that the dog was onboard. One night, when David was in his bunk, he noticed that the boat’s engine was off when it shouldn’t be. He knew something was wrong.

When he went outside to check, the dog was nowhere to be seen. David was pissed. They were already in the middle of the sea when he found the owner and convinced him that they needed to go back for him.

When they went back, Negrita was waiting for them on the shore. David also found an english-speaking person who was willing to take care of Negrita for a few weeks while he works out her papers so she can fly to him.

Weeks turned into five months, which made David more excited to have Negrita with him in Ireland. When they met again, he could hardly recognize her as her transformation was amazing. She was looking healthier that he first saw her.

He could not believe that the dog he found in the Amazon is finally with him. When people go on vacation, they bring souvenirs, David brought back a living dog.

Special Needs Dog Grows Up With Special Need Siblings

A white puppy is laying on a wooden deck.

This beautiful dog never had a chance to feel different as he was with a family that made sure he never feels it. The first part of Ghost’s life was one of struggle and pain. He had a big open wound in his leg which caused a full-body infection.

He was put on the euthanasia list and was thankfully rescued. They had to amputate his leg first to stop the spread of infection to his bones. His foster parents, Heather and Kabrina Marchant thought that they had a very sick dog in their hands and would need special care for weeks.

He seemed lifeless and could not even lift his head. They were wrong. Like a real pitbull, he was up and hanging out with the crew within twenty-four hours.

Ghost was lucky as his foster siblings were special needs pitties too and they made sure that Ghost never feels alone. When they play with Ghost, they even make sure to do it gently. Ghost’s luck did not run out too as his foster parents found him the perfect family.

Matt McCready could think of his friends from the army who also had lost their limbs when he looks at Ghost. Matt wants to make sure that he can provide Ghost the best life imaginable. Ghost mom, Jessica Sulco is a dance teacher and brought him to the studio, and everybody loves him.

That’s when Matt had an idea to make him a service dog. With the memories of his friends and the fact that Ghost is good with people, Ghost is living proof that no matter what you go through, you can always move on.

Ghost is the perfect addition to their family. He even gets a kitten for a sibling, and they are inseparable! He finally gets a life that he deserves.

This Tiny Dog Is An Inspiration

Every life, no matter how tiny, matters. This little puppy drinks water from a hamster bottle. He looks more like a very small guinea pig than an actual dog.

That’s how tiny Auggie is. This French Bulldog was born with a cleft palate, and his breeder has tube fed him for three weeks. When a breeder does not want to care for their dogs anymore, they contact S.N.O.R.T or Short Noses Only Rescue Team. This organization takes in any pug, Boston terriers, French bulldogs, and English bulldogs.

That’s how Meghan Debiasio got Auggie. She got him when he was only three and a half weeks old. When she first saw him, he was so tiny that he looked like a newborn puppy. But there was no excitement from him, no tail wagging whatsoever.

Under Meghan’s care, Auggie grew in size, but there were more problems than just his height. He seems to have neurological issues as there is never a normal interaction when it comes to him.

But this tiny dog is the sweetest. He would always sleep in his mom’s neck like a parrot. That’s where he nuzzles up every night when he goes to bed. When it comes to dog interaction, he has a hard time keeping up, but he found a friend in Juno.

It’s amazing how Juno would allow him to nuzzle up to her. She doesn’t seem to mind. One thing that is very noticeable with them, is their size. Auggie’s lack of size he makes up for in spirit.

You still see him fight every day, and every day he improves. The dog who people thought would not make it is thriving. And he continues to grow every single day.

He fights to live, and he fights to be happy.

Senior Pit Bull Gets A Family

Senior dogs are usually the least to get adopted due to their age and health issues. It’s even more challenging when that senior dog is a pitbull who has been tagged as dangerous by society. This stereotyping has been going around for years, but more and more people are trying to change people’s minds.

Since Zolton was rescued, it has been around three months until he was finally adopted. He is one of the lucky who actually gets a home that would love him. Zolton’s tail was wagging hard when he saw his mom for the first time.

He could tell that his future is with this woman and he will be loved. It was time for him to go to his forever home. There was a sign of relief in his eyes. Joe, the rescue trainer, brought Zolton and his new mother, Cynthia home. There, he started sniffing around to get familiar with different scents of his new environment.

When he got there, he does not even know how to play with a toy. It seems he never learned from his previous owner. About a month in, Zolton was finally able to adjust to his new life.

He now enjoys going for walks too! There is just something about dogs with horrible experiences that no matter what they have been through in life, they end become so forgiving and can still be so trusting. Some of the senior dogs like Zolton may never have a happy day in their lives, but Zolton was one of the lucky few who gets to.

His mom has rescued his life, and Zolton knows it. Because of what Cynthia has done, Zolton will not know pain anymore. From here on out, he will only learn love and affection from his parents.

Saving a senior dog’s life is one of the sweetest things anyone can do for a dog.

Bar And Dogpark Business: An Interesting Venture

Keywords: dogpark, statue

Remember back in college, when you and your friends were drinking and you’re a bit tipsy? Then you start sharing your crazy business ideas for a bar? Combining different elements that would make the business stand out and become the talk of the town. Well, it turns out, one of those guys were serious about their visions.

The concept of Boozehounds was born, and now is being realized. They are expected to open this summer in Orlando, Florida. The business is supposed to bring two places into one – a dog park for the good doggos who like to socialize, and a bar where the owners can socialize as well.

There will be a lot of facilities for the pups to play around in. These will help the dogs with their exercise – they can play around with other dogs – and it helps keep them entertained. For the dog parents, they will have a full bar with booze and TVs to watch their games and meet new acquaintances as well.

Would this really work? Go to the next page and see more details.

Professional Runner Ran Marathon With His Pup

The shadow of a marathon runner running on the street.

Since our dogs are our best friends, they’re not just there to guard your home or help with watching over your animals on your farm. Dogs need to bond with you as their owner. A good way for them to do this is by joining you in your outdoor activities. We all know that they hate being left alone at home. Who wouldn’t?

Our pups have a playful nature, and this is the perfect link between you and your dog. When it’s time for you to play, why not bring them along? If you are going to the beach or the lake, they are the perfect companions. If you are going for a jog at the park, might as well take them too.

For professional marathon runner Scott Smith, it’s easier said than done. See, Scott is an elite runner and running is his profession. He represented the USA team back in the Beijing Olympics and he is a member of Hoka One One Northern Arizona Elite, a professional running team.
