14-Year-Old Is On A Mission To Help Shelter Dogs With Bow Ties
When most of us think about people who help dogs in need, our thoughts automatically go to large animal rescue organizations. Although that may be true in many cases, there are plenty of individuals who do their part. That includes a 14-year-old entrepreneur who founded Beaux & Paws. Sir Darius Brown is the young man who got that business off the ground and it is in a very unusual niche. He creates and sells bow ties for dogs, but he does much more than what appears above the surface. Along with selling the bow ties on his website, he...
This Website Makes Pictures Of Cats That Aren’t Real
Technology has taught us many things but I think one of the most profound truths that have been uncovered in the past few decades is just how much people love cats. Of course, we always knew that was the case but having the raw data of just how many people would look at cat pictures and videos really opened our eyes to how pervasive it is. Social media is full of cat pictures and some websites are created just to give us our daily fix of felines. Some of them might even put a unique twist on the subject, including this unique website that has...
Dog Is Rescued After Being Found Living In The Garbage
I think that most of us would agree that every dog deserves a home but not everybody feels that way. Unfortunately, there are some dogs that are mistreated and perhaps even abandoned. This was recently seen in Greece when a stray dog was found hiding in the garbage. Dogs are abandoned far too often and, at times, the outcome isn’t positive. Thanks to DAR Animal Rescue, however, this pooch got a second chance and is now living a better life.

‘Doctor Peyo’ Is A Special Horse That Comforts Cancer Patients
When you think about special animals, your thoughts will likely turn to the pets that share your home.

Train Employees Help Lost English Bulldog Find His Way Home
As a pet owner, life is always interesting because you never quite know what is going to happen from one day to the next. Perhaps one of the more stressful things that can happen, however, is for our dog to wander off. In many cases, we find them quickly but at times, they may be more difficult to locate. Sampson is one of those dogs who seems to love to wander. About a year ago, he was adopted by Mike Frankow who refers to him as being a “good dog,” according to ABC7. He would even take the English bulldog to work, although that...
Man Nursed An Injured Hummingbird Back To Life After It Fell To The Ground
It’s always a treat when we see a hummingbird stop by for a visit. Some people even put out hummingbird feeders so they can enjoy them more often.

In fact, he thought that the bird was so injured that it wouldn’t make it home but after bringing her into the car, it seems as if she got comfortable and started sleeping immediately.

An interesting place to not only watch conflict unfold but to offer your opinions as it does, is the Reddit subforum “Am I The A**hole?” The premise is simple — an aggrieved person takes to the site, laying out an argument they’ve gotten into as fairly as they can, taking all sides into account. Then they ask the reflexive...
