Basset Hounds Get A Spa Day After Being Rescued From A Puppy Mill
It doesn’t matter who we are, we all need to be pampered from time to time. It seems as if this is not only true of humans, but even basset hounds could use a good pampering. That is especially true when they have been recently rescued from horrible conditions.

They were each given a bath by Debbie, and it is absolutely adorable to watch them being cared for in such a kind way. Photo: YouTube/National Mill Dog...
Shelter Dog Placed In A Loving Foster Home Transforms Into New Dog
Piper is a dog like many others that went to the animal shelter. That shelter, Partners for Pets, was more than happy to receive Piper but unfortunately, Piper was not very happy about being there. It didn’t take long for the shelter staff to identify how frightened she was and when there was anyone in the room, she would scurry to an area as far away as possible. This made adoption difficult and they knew they needed some specialized help. Photo: YouTube/The Dodo That is when they looked for someone who could assist Piper in getting...
Dog Keeps Getting Through Fence So Owner Beats Her At Her Own Game
Some dogs love to stay at home and you can barely get them to go outside. Other dogs, however, will take any advantage to run and they can be difficult to catch once they are out and about. Of course, we want to care for our dogs in the best way possible and that is why we will often build a fence to keep them from getting in harm’s way. Perhaps that is how Julia Morley felt after adopting Lu-Seal in 2016. Her little Chihuahua was a little chunky when she first brought her home. In fact, she was about twice the size of a healthy...

Perhaps that is how you will feel after you see this video that a woman posted on Twitter. Photo: Pixabay/didssph As it...
Watch How Dogs React To Their Names Being Called
Anyone with pets knows that there is a measurable difference between cats and dogs – particularly how they react to their names being called. Cats flat-out ignore you. And if they do happen to respond to their name, it’s usually a glaring stare, like they’re saying, “how dare you speak to me, peasant!” Dogs, on the other hand, are so much happier to be engaged. They love when their names get called. To them, it’s just another chance for them to interact with their favorite person. Photo: Wikimedia Commons...

Four Tigers Living In An Abandoned Train Car For 15 Years Will Finally Be Rescued
Four tigers who had been living in a train car for the past 15 years are finally rescued and being brought to a sanctuary. Back in 2007, a traveling circus asked a local farmer in San Luis, Argentina, if he could take care of two tigers that were housed in a train carriage for six months. The train car was on the farmer’s land. Photo: YouTube/Inside Edition The farmer agreed, but the circus never returned, which left the farmer to deal with the two tigers. He fed them and looked after them, but it became even harder when the two tigers...

Ex-Marine Reunites With German Shepherd He Served With After Years Apart
When a dog serves in the military for an extended period of time, he or she often develops an unshakable bond with their handler. Military working dogs and their handlers go through so much together, but eventually, they’re often torn apart. Military dogs can only serve for so long before they have to retire, and likewise, handlers retire at various points in their careers. It’s a hard thing to go through losing your best companion, but it’s the reality that many working dogs face. One 9-year-old German Shepherd, Atilla, was...
As Woman Feeds Stray Cats in Her Neighborhood, One Wins Her Heart
This story was originally shared on The Animal Rescue Site. Submit your own rescue story here. Your story just might be the next to be featured on our blog! I met TinTin at a parking lot in my neighborhood about three years ago. One day, she just appeared out of nowhere, so I offered her some food. She was a kitten, but after a few days, to my horror, I realized that she was pregnant. Is it because all calico tabby cats are extremely charming and sexy? I don’t know. CAT.
