    Somewhere In Heaven There's A Black And White Dog Taking Care Of Seven Golden Lab Puppies

    Somewhere In Heaven There's A Black And White Dog Taking Care Of Seven Golden Lab Puppies

    Daisy the dog lost all seven of her puppies in a barn fire at the end of February, and wasn’t the same afterwards, spending most of her days going to the remains of the barn to look for them. Her owner posted a desperate appeal on Facebook, asking if anyone had puppies she could foster. The next day, an owner of eight orphaned puppies contacted her, and Daisy took to caring for them straight away

    Our old dog came from the shelter (all do actually) but she was the official "nurse" mother to any puppies that came in. After a year of doing that they decided she should go to a good home instead of being locked up and allowed her to be adopted out. It was one of those dad doesn't want dog, then dad falls in love with dog situations. They were best friends. They both got cancer around the same time. She died and about a week later he died, even though Drs said he had at least a year. I know it was because his 4 legged girl was gone.

    I am so sorry for your losses. When my mother died, her 3 year old dog literally grieved himself to death. He died 4 months after my mom, with no illnesses.

    I had a cat do that. It was her first litter and her two kittens didn't make it through their first day. She was crying and crying and crying and it was devastating. So I asked around and found a kitten that was being bottle-fed...and my sweet girl took the kitten in immediately

    I have a visceral reaction to this. I do like to believe that women like me who lost babies, will get to look after all the babies waiting for their parents on the other side.

    I had a dog named Daisy…she was given to me when I was in second grade and she was still alive when I left home in high school, but I forgot about her for years, so I have no idea when she died, but I was a very bad dog mom and I treated her abominably and still feel bad about it 50+ years later…she smelled so bad, but I also never washed her. I was very much a cat person and couldn’t handle her following me everywhere…it made me absolutely nuts. I apologize to her in my brain every time I think of her. She was a sweet, sweet doggie. Okay, gotta go cry now…

    My heart is breaking and refilling with just how lucky we that animals are sharing their world with us. God knew what to call K9ines when he named them officially. Everybody blamed it on dyslexia. He knew exactly what he was doing because he wanted his love to be right there without have to book a flight and stuff.

    This made me cry. Life is so darn unfair. This means puppies lost their mama and a mama lost her babies and in a awfully tragic way. ...I'll never ever understand why God allows us women or pets to carry a baby/babies just to lose them . I know this was supposed to be a bitter sweet story but it still makes me so mad and sad. Yes I'm very thankful puppies found a new mama and the mama found babies but gosh so so many mixed emotions.

    This is just what happened to a neighbour of ours. They had a pedigree English Springer Spaniel who had puppies with our dog. Both dogs were brown and white, but the puppies were black and white. That came from our dog's family as he was born to a Border Collie mother and his brothers and sisters were all black and white as well. He was the only brown and white one. It's just funny how genetics work sometimes.

Your lack of true love towards animals. You stay in a damn barn in the winter. Puppies need warmth. You don't deserve pets!! And yes I have pets and guess where they live in?! IN OUR HOME!!! YOU DONT DESERVE PETS!

    No wonder people love animals. There’s plenty of evidence suggesting our adorable critters give us comfort, reduce stress, encourage exercise, and help us forget our everyday troubles. Not to mention that sharing our lives with such great companions makes us feel far less lonely and works miracles for our mental wellbeing. 

    Today, there are very few things people share in common as much as the love of our four-legged friends. According to a poll by YouGov, 69 percent of American adults have at least one pet in their home, and it seems that dogs, cats, and fish are the most common choice of pets. 

    Moreover, these animals are extremely cherished by their owners. The vast majority, 88 percent to be exact, see them as members of their family. More than a half of the respondents allow them to sleep in their own beds, plan to buy them holiday presents, and 50 percent revealed letting their pets lick their faces.

    When it comes to the main reasons Americans decide to get a furry house friend in the first place, having company, providing a nice home, and hoping they would improve their mental health were some of the top ones. Plus, more than a third mentioned they got a pet because their partner or family member simply wanted one. 

    While we appreciate the joy animals bring into our lives, we catch ourselves wondering: how did we get the pets we have? Although pets have adjusted to us, our behaviors, and our emotions, it was not always like that.

    I'm Recovering From Anorexia But My Cat Stopped Eating... Finally Worked Out That She Will Only Eat When I Do. A Very Good Reason To Keep Eating

    moonchild_86 Report

    To find out how the domestication of animals works, we reached out to Lee Dugatkin, Ph.D., an evolutionary biologist and a historian of science at the University of Louisville. "Ever wonder how our ancestors turned wild animals into the pets that play such an important part in our everyday life? An experiment in Russia, now in its 62nd year, is helping us understand," he told Bored Panda. 

    "In the late 1950s, Dmitry Belyaev, a brilliant Russian geneticist, came up with an idea for how to replay the evolutionary process that led to the domestication of dogs from wolves, but sped up and using foxes instead of wolves," he explained. The experiment that began in 1960 took place in Novosibirsk, the largest city in Siberia.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Dugatkin noted that this groundbreaking project continues to this day "under the watchful guidance of Belyaev’s student, Lyudmila Trut," who recently celebrated her 88th birthday. "Each year, she and her team test hundreds of foxes, selecting only the tamest —the most prosocial toward humans—to parent the next generation."

    Dugatkin and Trut tell the whole story of this experiment in their book How to Tame a Fox (and Build a Dog): Visionary Scientists and a Siberian Tale of Jump-Started Evolution, which is full of science, political intrigue, and tales of love. "In a nutshell, what the Russian team has done is create domesticated foxes that will lick your ears and melt your hearts with their devotion and love," he explained.  

    It's hard to imagine that somewhere in the beautiful yet harsh Siberia, you would be able to find furry foxes that are as friendly as our beloved canines. "Incredibly, even though Lyudmila and her colleagues select the parents of each generation strictly on how behaviorally tame foxes are, their domesticated foxes look eerily like dogs," Dugatkin added. "Within a decade (ten fox generations), some of the foxes had floppy ears and curly tails."

    My neighbor's black cat had kittens and they found a baby possum on their deck that must have fallen off of its mom. The mama cat took it in as one of her kittens, but she doesn’t understand why this little funny kitten hangs on her all the time. At this point in time we need to be more like the animals, take care of each other in their time of need.

    My Foster Dog Had Never Been Indoors Before. This Is Her First Nap, On A Bed, In A Home

    My Foster Dog Had Never Been Indoors Before. This Is Her First Nap, On A Bed, In A Home

    Sundae was taken from a dog hoarding situation — one man had 16 dogs (and a deceased dog’s body) in his backyard. The dogs had access only to a junk-filled backyard and a garage for shelter. We’ve had her for about a week and you would never know that she’s never been an indoor dog before. She’s totally potty trained, incredibly gentle and she’s very polite indoors. She loves to sleep as close as possible to me in bed — I think she’s just making up for 8ish years of zero affection.

    "By the end of the second decade, they had mottled fur patterns and dog-like faces and bodies. And these foxes are as good as dogs at following human gaze," the evolutionary biologist said. What makes this experiment particularly fascinating is that domestication of certain animal species took thousands of years, and this experiment managed to have surprising results in just a few decades.

    Dugatkin continued: "If all of that were not enough to make us humans fall head-over-heels for these remarkable creatures, they also laugh. Indeed, a number of the vocalizations the domesticated foxes make are more similar to human laughs than the sounds produced by any other species," he told Bored Panda. 

    He concluded by saying that all of these incredible changes toward a pet-like animal "occurred in mere sixty-plus years. Who knows what changes lay in store as the experiment steams into its seventh decade?"

    An Autistic Boy, Who Can't Be Touched, Connects With A Service Dog, As His Mom Bursts Into Tears Of Hope And Joy

    An Autistic Boy, Who Can't Be Touched, Connects With A Service Dog, As His Mom Bursts Into Tears Of Hope And Joy

    I'm not sure why, but people still ask us why we place service dogs with children sometimes. Let me help you understand, from a momma who knows first hand:
    See this moment? I've never experienced a moment like this.
    This picture was taken near the end of the day after my autistic five-year-old was finally able to sit down with his new Service Dog Tornado. He flew across the entire ocean, stopped in multiple states, and uprooted his entire routine to travel the globe for this. He was so overwhelmed through the day that he had to leave to take a break for a couple hours before he could come back. This boy is the strongest child I have ever met; he has faced countless rude and ignorant adults and children who do not understand him, who have hurt him, and who have not valued him because he is different. This picture captures the face of a mother who saw her child, who she can't hug, wash, dress, snuggle and touch freely lay on his new Service dog of his own free will, with a purposeful unspoken attachment. This is the face of a mom who has seen her son experience countless failed social interactions on the playground in an attempt to have a friend. Any friend. Any kind of connection. She has sat with her son while he has cried at night for months because he has no consistent connections outside of the family no matter how hard he tries and no matter what he works hard on in his Autism therapies. It doesn't transfer to the natural occurring world for him. And now she is sitting behind her son silently watching this moment, with the air sucked from her lungs, and no words to say.
    Holding her mouth and silently crying because she doesn't want to distract him from the moment and break him away from a pure, honest, and truly fulfilling moment for her son of his own free will. This is truly magic. Words cannot explain it.
    I have cried so many times for this boy, but this is the very first time I have cried for a reason like this.
    It's new, it's painful, it's wonderful, and it's grateful. I will always stand behind this boy (probably still crying ) but I am grateful that he will have Tornado to stand beside him. The 4 Paws magic is real. The wait is long, but this moment right here makes it worth every moment of waiting. It's worth every fight for services for my son, every diagnosis, every new provider, every dollar spent, every paper filled out, every school meeting, every shed tear, every step forward, every step back, and every wonder of the unknown future. Somehow because of this- because of Tornado- I know everything will be okay.
