I Photographed 6 Dogs And Their Possessions To Show You The Life They Live

You can! Link is in the story up top!

He's up for adoption! :)

Please, please, PLEASE, adopt him! Poor, sweet baby. :'(

Me too, he's my favorite...just look at that face!

He seems to have already found his forever home, he doesn't appear on the website anymore .

Thank you, thank you SO much for doing this. They deserve all the love we can give them.

We have a cat who is now becoming elderly (she'll be 14 in September) and it's heartbreaking to see her deteriorate. She has kidney problems and has lost a lot of weight over the past few months. Plus, her eyes aren't what they used to be, poor baby. But she's still happy and acts completely normal, even jumps and meows and everything as usual (she's Siamese so she's very vocal). We're there for her, making sure she eats right and giving her medicine for her kidneys, and we'll be there for her until the very end.

We just had to put down our family dog of 17 years!! Can you imagine?! She started changing just like a person, only it seemed a little more rapid since they age faster. One day, her mind was just gone. That's when we decided it was time. I loved her dearly. We bought her out of a play pen at a swap meet when I was 6 years old. She was very loved, even through the end.

Woman flying from Tampa to Miami. Shows up with her elderly dog. She never checked on rules for flying with animals. She decided to get on the plane, leaving the dog at check-in. Dog rescued by airport police, then taken to a foster home. She was in rough shape, but getting medical treatment and lots of love, Former owner looking at charges for abandoning her dog. I hope she rots in Hell.

Very well said!❤️

I agree so much with you Kim! Magda was surrendered to a shelter because her family couldn't take care of her special needs. Now she has a forever home that loves her beyond anything and takes care of her needs. Magda, despite her sad gaze, she is a very happy pup who knows that life just gifted her with some more golden years to live at its fullest!

I see a PARTY!!!

Love kills sometimes haha

*can u

Yes, it happens fairly often with cats and dogs

It disturbs me, to be honest. I live with the show dogs, and these are ordinary dogs - they need time to play and roll in the mud. They have it enough. But some people perceive show dogs only as objects for the show.

Oh! He has plenty at home! But work is work I guess :)

Sadly, many show dogs are just considered commodities, like racehorses. Enjoyment of life is not a consideration.

not for a beauty show dog

My dog, Shadow. She's a six pound black poodle who doubles as a medical alert dog as well as my companion. When we're out she has a service vest on, when we're at home she's wearing a light-colored shirt/dress so that I can see her easily when I take her out after dark. Yes, it's cutesy, but it's also the safety issue for her.

I just don't put nail polish on my dog.

Some dogs like to be dressed up.

Maybe she likes wearing clothing, you don’t know all the facts

No, some of these actions are perfectly fine such as dressing the dog up and giving it fancy treats and accessories. I just don’t agree with nail polish and perfume.

I have had several therapy animals. The rule in my group is that if your dog is dressed up, you 'd better be dressed up too. The therapy dogs, and a few cats, seemed to really enjoy getting dressed up to go on hospital or nursing home visits. In my group, no dog ever had their dignity diminished (it is cruel to laugh at dogs IMO) but they can laugh and joke around just like humans. Dogs and handlers wore their costumes proudly, the patients loved it, and I think the dogs did too. As Courtney Graham said, some see their "work clothes" and get very excited, knowing they're going to be center stage. I would never, by word, thought or deed, be cruel to an animal.

Yep. They make a quick-dry nail polish with animal-safe ingredients so it's non-toxic if the dog chews her paws and toenails. I've had Shadow's nails done maybe once a year, then again I have to have her groomed regularly since she's a poodle.
