Two Incredibly Sweet Puppies Assisted by Feral Cat Colony Rescued in Ukraine

Surrogates in the animal world are not at all unusual. You never know when a momma with young of her own will take in animals that are not theirs or even of another species. Sometimes, they don’t even have to have a current litter or clutch to decide to help. You see these odd pairings in the news all the time, and they frequently melt your heart for the kindness and compassion they show. If only more humans could be so lacking in bias and judgment when it comes to those that are different or in need, but that’s a whole other...

My Dog is My Support During War in Ukraine

I would like to share with you my story, my love, the best friend in my life, and my family, a dog named Kira. My story started last July 18th, 2021. I saw online a picture of a dog, and without sleeping all night, I ran in the morning to the pet shelter to get her. I adopted the dog and brought her home the next day. She was already 5 months old. She came from a litter of four, and I renamed her Kira. I can’t tell you how happy I was to bring this shy and timid girl home. Photo: Iryna Caro War in Ukraine These days, since Russia...

This is a story of a sweet Labra-Heeler who got a rough start to life but has managed to pull through with the help of a loving foster mom and her own indomitable spirit.

How Cold is Too Cold for Walking Your Dog in Winter?

Regardless of temps, dogs need walking — especially if they’re an energetic breed that requires plenty of exercise. During warmer summer months, it’s important to be aware of not only the temperature but the heat emanating from the surface of the street. They may require booties to keep their pads from burning and plenty of water breaks. But winter comes with its own set of considerations. Ensuring pets are warm enough is equally as vital for their safety. Photo: Pixabay/StockSnap Walking Dogs in Winter For humans, 32...

Pete the Sweet Shelter Dog Just Can’t Catch a Break

For some reason, some shelter pets just can’t seem to catch a break when it comes to adoptions. There’s nothing wrong with them, but they just keep getting passed over in favor of other animals. They’re just as cute and lovable, plus they have good house manners and do well in public. Whatever the reasons for being overlooked, they still deserve a loving forever home. That’s the case with Pete, a sweet shelter dog in Tucson, Arizona, who’s been in the Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) since October 2021. Photo: Pima...
