Senior dog tucks himself to sleep at night waiting for new family at shelter

0

A senior Chihuahua’s life took a turn for the worst after his owner passed away. Like many who end up on the streets, he suddenly found himself all alone and sleeping in a homeless animal shelter.

So he found comfort the only way he knew how…by hiding under the blanket and crying himself to sleep.

Since his owner was no longer there to tuck him safely into bed at night, he took it upon himself to get the task done. Every night before he went to sleep, Scooter would pull the blanket over his head.

No matter how cute it may have looked to the casual observer, the fear and worry on his face always remained.

Staff at the Humane Society of Branch County could see how he was such a good, sweet boy, but they had worries of their own and weren’t sure if an elderly dog would get much attention from potential adopters.

“Just went back to say goodnight and lock up. This is Scooter. He tucks himself in at night. I pray someone adopts this boy soon…”

Jan Nageldinger, the manager at the no-kill shelter in Michigan, told The Dodo that at one point she thought that Scooter may end up spending the rest of his days at the shelter.

“But we had the space … We never turn them away.”

However, after the shelter shared a photo of Scooter tucked under his blankie, his life suddenly took off on a new trajectory!

Suddenly, everyone wanted to give the pup a home. But, Jessica Lynn Howard, who had previously adopted two other Chihuahuas from the shelter, was the lucky one who got to take the adorable doggy home.

“I saw Jan’s Facebook post, along with the rest of the world,” Jessica told The Dodo. “My husband Tim and I were lying in bed and it … brought me to tears. Without hesitation, I showed Tim and I said, ‘I have to go get him.’”

Not only does Scooter get a new home, but he also gets some new play buddies as well!

Jan and Tim live on a farm and they have 5 other dogs aside from Scooter. He’s so much happier now that he gets to spend the rest of his days frolicking around the big outdoors!

And when it’s time to rest, Scooter takes an afternoon snooze ON TOP of the blanket.

Even though his personality has changed for the better, some things stay the same. Apparently, Scooter is very attached to his regular bedtime routine.

“When it’s bedtime … he still tucks himself in. I’ve tried to tuck him in but he would rather do it himself. He has to get the covers just right. It’s really cute watching him.” – Jessica said.

Sweet Dog Hilariously Fake Limps Out Of Compassion For Owner

0

Bill is from London. And he just proved that dogs have way better hearts.

As if we don’t already know that fact. But these canines continue to surprise us. So to Bill’s story.

His owner is Russell Jones. Russell had his right leg put in a plaster cast which meant he had to walk with a crutch. Now where mean, uneducated folk would have mocked Jones, Bill the pooch began to imitate the limp for a different reason.

Tell me you refuse to love that face.

Russell posted the video on Faceb

ook with the following caption,

“Cost me £300 in vet fees and X-rays, nothing wrong just sympathy. Love him ❤️

Get this good boy an extra bowl of food!

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10157004380671396&set=pb.510076395.-2207520000..&type=3

The said video has 22k likes with 39k shares.

Bill limps with his human, raising his front left paw as if it really was injured. It’s super cute to watch knowing he’s doing it all for the love of Russell. Imitation is really the highest form of flattery. But it only works if you’re a dog!

Such a compassionate canine.

Bex Brock-Hollinshead commented,

“He’s copying you. That’s brilliant! Though you have my sympathy for the vets bill.”

To be fair, as cute as this Lurcher’s intentions were, that’s cash down the drain. But hey, hard to get mad when you find out he did it out of pure love for his owner. Bill got extra treats that day. Plus he’s famous now!

Cesar’s Way explained on their site,

“There are a number of different creatures that imitate others within their own species. People imitate other people. Birds imitate other birds. Non-human primates like monkeys and apes imitate others in their group. But dogs not only imitate other dogs—they copy what we do as well. What’s even crazier is that they have been known to do so even when the imitation doesn’t benefit them,”

Nothing wrong with this dog. He just tried to make things right.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CKRXeD9gq_x/

The website’s explanation follows up with,

“Experts think that dogs’ tendency to copy us came about through thousands of years of selective breeding and training. Over time, it grew to become a built-in reaction,”

That’s time well spent. Look what we ended up with! Dogs have evolved to become such pure, loving creatures. They never judge or criticize. All they know and all they want to do, is to give their hearts fully.

Hobble wobble but he’s of no trouble.

Lurchers are known for being silent and calm. They are bred for hunting and are known for being active and intelligent. Bill just showed the world that affectionate intelligence. He’s got his human to watch and protect so this doggo decided to raise a little awareness for Russell.

How many kisses did Bill get for this stunt?

Now what can you do with $400?

That’s a lot of money. A man would have gone to fix his car, or perhaps even a gym membership.

In Russell’s case, it could have gone for his medical check ups for that leg. But Bill got to the money first! That’s alright though, look how they’ve gone viral. It’s opened more eyes to the wonder that are dogs.

This commitment didn’t just change Ginger’s life; it influenced Susan’s household, which included several kittens, who quickly grew fond of their new canine friend.

Her care didn’t stop at providing warmth; Ginger also displayed behaviors typical of a caring mother, such as grooming the kittens and teaching them social cues.

Man records woman on wakeboard, gets 22M views capturing group of creatures playing with her

The ocean, a vast and mysterious expanse, is a realm of wonder that has captivated humanity since time immemorial.

It’s a place where the smallest seahorse and the mightiest blue whale traverse the same deep blues.

For us land-dwellers, the ocean is a playground of boundless adventure, offering us a chance to swim, sail, dive, and, for the more daring, wakeboard on its surface.

On a particularly radiant afternoon, a woman set out to indulge in the thrill of wakeboarding.

With the sun casting its warm glow upon her, she skimmed across the water’s surface, completely unaware of the enchanting experience that was about to unfold before her very eyes.

As she reveled in the joy of her sport, the ocean prepared to unveil its magic.

YouTube – Wyatt Miller

The man filming, alongside the wakeboarding enthusiast, witnessed a spectacular display as a group of dolphins began to leap out of the water in a playful act known as “porpoising.”

It wasn’t just a handful of these marine mammals; an entire pod accompanied the boat, their numbers too great to count, moving in a harmonious ballet beside the vessel.

YouTube – Wyatt Miller

The dolphins, with their innate curiosity and zest for play, drew closer to the wakeboarder.

They swam alongside her, matching her pace, as if accepting her into their fold.

The scene was mesmerizing, a rare moment where the worlds of human and dolphin intersected, creating a bridge between species.

Wyatt Miller, the videographer, was profoundly moved by the experience.

Upon sharing the footage on YouTube, he couldn’t contain his excitement, declaring:

“This was definitely one of the TOP 3 afternoons of my LIFE!!!”

YouTube – Wyatt Miller

It’s encounters like these that remind us of the deep connection we share with nature, a connection that is both profound and deeply moving.

However, our oceans are in peril, and the creatures that bring us such joy are under threat.

The waters that we use for our pleasure are being polluted by our own hands.

An estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic are dumped into these waters annually, a figure that is as alarming as it is heartbreaking.

The magnitude of this issue is exemplified by the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a swirling mass of plastic debris that spans an area as large as Texas.

YouTube – Wyatt Miller

This floating testament to human waste lies between California and Hawaii, a stark contrast to the natural beauty that Wyatt’s video captures.

The marine life that we so admire, including the playful dolphins from that unforgettable afternoon, are the ones who suffer the most from our negligence. Yet, it’s not too late to change the tide.

Simple acts, such as recycling, reducing our reliance on single-use plastics, and choosing eco-friendly alternatives like matches over plastic lighters, can make a monumental difference.

Wyatt’s video is a poignant reminder of the ocean’s splendor and the urgent need to protect it.

It’s a call to action for all of us to take responsibility for the health of our oceans and the well-being of their inhabitants.

Let’s share this message far and wide.

Not just to spread the wonder of that magical wakeboarding experience, but to ignite a collective effort to preserve our oceans.

Experts warn if you have a dog or cat do not put your address on their collar

0

A recent Inside Edition report warned pet owners about putting certain information on pet tags after two women said strangers tried to use their dog’s tag information to track them down.

Shay Grayson told Inside Edition that a stranger stopped her when she was walking her dog to ask if he could take a picture of the Maltese.

But he wasn’t taking a picture of the dog.

He was taking a picture of the dog’s tags.

“I noticed that he was actually holding up her dog collar and the dog tag, and then I realized he was actually taking a picture of my address, which was on the dog tag, not on my dog,” Greyson said.

Once she realized what he was doing, she ran after him to force him to delete the photos.

“My home could be broken into. Or whenever I took my dog out one day, he could be out there to either kidnap my dog or to do something to me. There were so many things that could happen with him having my address,” Greyson said.

Michelle Kimball had a similar experience but she didn’t realize her information was being pilfered during the act.

She didn’t realize what happened until she got a phone call from a stranger.

“I was thinking in my head, I said, ‘I don’t know anybody by that name? How did you get my phone number?’ He said, ‘Oh, I got it off your dog’s collar,’” Kimball said.

Inside Edition – YouTube

Apparently, he asked to pet her German Shepherd Nilla when they went out for a walk and he took a photo of her phone number on her dog’s collar.

“Why would anybody think that’s okay, just to get my phone number from my dog’s collar? That’s in case my dog gets lost,” Kimball said.

And these women are the only ones this has happened to.

“That’s exactly how my obsessive ex-husband found out where I was living after our nasty divorce. My mom took care of my dog while I was at work, and she would let her out in the fenced yard for a little while every day,” one person commented on YouTube.”

“Apparently, he had someone knock at the door to distract my mom while he ran to the fence and took a picture of my dog’s tag. That night, he jumped the gate (at my GATED community), and showed up at my front door. SCARY!”

Safety expert Barb Jordan says that dog parks are an easy place for someone to swipe your info because people are usually friendly and have their guards down.

“We never think that people are going to be using our dogs to get close to us. But predators, they have no limits. They have no boundaries,” Jordan said.

She says that you should only put your phone number on your pet’s collar tags.

Having your pet microchipped is also a way to keep your information safe.

That way your contact information is only accessible when the chip is scanned at a veterinarian’s office.

Inside Edition – YouTube

The PetHealthNetwork says you might want to leave your pet’s name off of the tag as well.

That’s so someone can’t call your animal if they intend to dog or catnap them.

You might want to acknowledge that the dog is microchipped on their collar tag.

You can also check with your veterinarian to see what the best option for you and your pet is.

In the heart of Essex, England, at Mountfichet Castle, a group of endearing ducklings faced a tough start when they lost their mother.
