I have to share this one with my fiance, as we've always been pretty certain that cats 'own' their keepers and are aloof unlike dogs who are loving and loyal, but this vid gives a totally different perspective, so maybe we've been wrong. Somehow don't think we'll be having a cat when we're married though - we're very much dog people lol

Aren't dogs wonderful animals too being able to detect these awful mines just using their sense of scent. Great Story, thanks Zandrajoi

Pigs are just the most amazing animals, intelligent and affectionate - adorable. The vid of Hilton enjoying his apple slices was lovely. His pleasure was splashed across the screen and gave me such a smile Thanks for sharing

healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2020/06/18/k9-emergency-medical-training.aspx Story at-a-glance Two fire departments in northeast Wisconsin offered an advanced level of police K9 training for paramedics The extra level of training showed paramedics how to administer IVs and do intubations and chest needle decompressions on dogs, types of care that could be required if a working dog were stabbed, shot or hit by a vehicle A bill was introduced in Rhode Island that would make an exception for police K9s in the state law permitting emergency medical services to only be used for humans Similar bills were introduced in Massachusetts and Florida; if passed, the bills would allow emergency personnel to treat injured police dogs and transport them to veterinary facilities New York State passed a law allowing ambulances to transport police dogs to receive medical care in 2016

His eyes were so sad at the start but love and attention brought him to life. Lovely story of what you can do for a rescue dog. Made me smile too Thanks Zandrajoi

"Abused Dog Feels For the First Time Petting Instead of Abusing" My notes: His cries are so loud & forlorn. Your heart breaks instantly. The ending is worth the tears
