Dog Refuses To Eat Her Food Unless It is Prepared How Dad Makes It
Kids aren’t the only picky eaters…meet a dog named Nairobi. She only eats her kibbles when they are prepared just like how her dad makes them. Her mom, Chelsea, tried to feed her just her kibbles and the adorable pup refused to eat. She simply stared at her bowl in disbelief and waited for her “special toppings”. It was a battle of wills and the pup won. “She would rather starve then eat plain kibble! Lol,” shared her mom. The pup let out a little growl to show her displeasure at the end of the video...

It’s said that the descendants of those animals now constitute the herd at Caprock. Park...

This Blind Cat Was Returned to the Shelter Twice. Now His Forever Family Calls Him a Blessing
Little is known about the very beginning of Winkie’s life, but he certainly has had some rough early years. When he was young, he was hit by a car, which broke his back, bent his nasal cavity, chipped off some of his teeth, and stole his sight. When he was brought to the vet, one of his eyes had to be removed completely. The other is still intact but is marbleized and mostly (or possibly entirely) useless. He now walks with a sort of hopping limp, has a snaggletooth, and needs nasal medication at times to help him breathe. Sadly,...

Canadian German Shepherd Takes The Internet By Storm With Her Impressive Hockey Goalie Skills
It’s always interesting to see how quickly dogs pick up on new tricks. At one point, I had two little dogs: a miniature Goldendoodle and a Yorkie-pomeranian mix. The Goldendoodle was eager to please and would perform new tricks almost without training! It was as if he just innately knew what to do. The other dog, however, was more cat-like in her desire to learn new skills. She’d know what I was asking but would choose whether or not she wanted to follow through. It was nearly impossible to get her to do basic commands like...
