Starving Homeless Dog Gets Rescued And Taken To Pet-Friendly Restaurants Every Day

Mr.Dog — Fri, 28 Oct 2016 17:52:07 +0000

Popeye, the dog, is making the rounds at all the best restaurants in LA. Popeye was once a starving stray who only ate what he was able to find laying around. Now, the pooch eats some of the most amazing food you have ever seen with his new owner, Ivy Diep. Ivy said she found Popeye as a stray – he was very skinny, matted, and dirty.

At the time, Ivy wasn’t looking for another dog, but no one wanted to take Popeye in, so Ivy kept him. It wasn’t long before Popeye had made a space for himself in their house and in their hearts.

One of Ivy’s friends, Jen, suggested that Popeye have his own Instagram account because he is so cute.

Jen and Ivy would go on ‘Instagram dates’ and take pictures of the amazing food they ate.

The idea was to bring Popeye along on the date and take pictures of the food and Popeye!

Despite his past, Popeye is very good around food and doesn’t lunge for it.

Popeye doesn’t eat the foods that would make him sick, he does get to taste the foods that are safe

Ivy brings a bag of dog food and treats for Popeye to enjoy for times when the food isn’t fit for him to eat.

Popeye’s Instagram account (Popeye the foodie) has over 120,000 followers, and it features pictures of Popeye with and without a huge plate of food in front of him!

Scroll down to see all the delectable items that Popeye has been pictured with. Popeye is one lucky dog!

Dog Falls Out Off of Boat on Lake Michigan, Swims Miles to Be Rescued

Mr.Dog — Fri, 02 Sep 2016 19:42:09 +0000

A young Belgian Malinois called Rylee is one lucky dog. She had fallen overboard and into Lake Michigan while boating with her humans. She was only really missing for about 24-hours, however, she must have had one heck of an adventure getting home.

This all happened Sunday morning when Rylee’s humans called Ed and Kristin Casas decided to pack up Rylee and do some boating. The group was on their way towards the Manitou Islands, and that’s about when Rylee went overboard. They were having some electrical issues on the boat, and they were six miles away from land in just about every direction.

Everyone had been in the boat’s cabin while Ed worked on the repairing the issue. Kristin had to exit the cabin to go topside and do something, and that’s when Rylee also got up and went out with her.

“In retrospect, I remember her coming out here to see where I was going,” said Kristin. “My poor assumption was that she would go back into the cabin with her dad.”

After about ten minutes, Ed noticed that Rylee wasn’t with him, and wasn’t with Kristin. They assumed that Rylee went overboard. Of course, they looked all over for her, but couldn’t find her anywhere. They even alerted the local coastguard station for help. They spent hours with volunteers searching, but somehow Rylee quite literally disappeared.

While the search was on, Lynn Fiedor, the wife of a local fisherman that was helping look for Rylee on the water, found out about what was going on. Lynn and her husband run a local lost dog search team, where they use many platforms to get the word out about a missing dog, including social media. She got to putting Rylee’s info on Facebook as quick as possible.

“We ended up having over 20,000 people look at our post online and when I saw that I was like…we’re going to find the dog,” Lynn said.

Later Sunday night, a boater that picked up a dog struggling in the water that they happened upon saw the missing dog post about Rylee on Facebook. They contacted Ed and Kristin to let them know that they got their dog out of the water, and dropped her off near Empire Beach, which is the area they though the dog was from. When Ed and Kristin got to Empire Beach, Rylee was already gone.

On Monday morning, someone at a local campground called in a report of seeing Rylee. They said they saw Rylee at the Platte River Campground. Ed and Kristin were really hoping that this time, Rylee would still be there when thy arried, and she was. Ed and Kristin are very grateful to everything that helped make finding Rylee safe and sound happen that much faster.

“We have a happy ending,” said Lynn. “And it’s the reason we do what we do.”

Abandoned Dog Hasn’t Stopped Smiling Since He Was Rescued

Abandoned dog can’t stop smiling now he’s found a loving home

[iframe id=”http://www.dailymail.co.uk/embed/video/1285437.html”]

No one is really sure exactly what had happened to Koby to put him in the predicament he was in when he was rescued. It’s assumed that he was very badly beaten and neglected by his former humans, before they simply dumped him off somewhere to starve to death. However that’s all in the past now, and his foster mom says he has not stopped smiling since the day he was rescued.

Even though his past isn’t fully understood, the shape that he was found in definitely allowed some pretty educated guesses into what things were like for him. Regardless, of the horrors in his early life, you’d never know he was abused by the way he acts today.

Thanks to the love and care of medical professionals and his new foster mom, Koby is all smiles today. In fact his whole attitude towards life. His foster mom was so impressed by how happy and playful Koby is, that it was decided that he would become a full member of her family.

This Dog Was Drowning In A Freezing Pond. When I Saw What They Had To Do To Rescue Him, My Jaw DROPPED.

Mr.Dog — Sun, 14 Feb 2016 00:10:25 +0000

In Delaware, a dog was walking and wandering around the thin ice, but unfortunately fell through. The poor creature was stranded in the freezing water. According to his owner, Mark Murowany, 13 year old Boo always walks around the lake but he never walked onto it before. When this all happened Mark’s mother was able to hear Boo barking from the ice watters. Immediately she ran outside to see his head poking out over the ice. She was terrified from what he saw, and immediately a friend of her’s, neighbor, called 911 and firefighters came right away to rescue him. Luckily they managed to rescue a dog that was drowning in a freezing pond.

Once firefighter came, they had to break the ice little by little, to be able to reach Boo while using a rowboat. In some spots the ice was really thick which made it really hard for them to break it. But there was no other way to get to Boo, so they kept breaking the ice until they finally got close to Boo. That is when one of the firefighters reached down to him, pulled him closer, and got him into the boat. The dog was really cold, and for a couple of more minutes he would have freezed inside the pond.

Firefighters amaze us once more. They were able to save the 13-year old dog from drowning. Once they rescued him from the critical situation, they wrapped him up in blankets. From the sight of the dog, you will be able to see that he was really really cold. Right after they wrapped the dog with blankets, immediately they set up a space heater to keep him warm. Thankfully Boo was rescued because otherwise this story would have had such a tragic ending. The video below will inform you fully.

Hunter Rescues Stray Found Caught in a Snare for Days

Mr.Dog — Wed, 20 Jan 2016 01:49:10 +0000

In Meridian, Texas, a local hunter came across a dog caught in a trapper’s snare. He immediately called for help, and the dog was saved from a terrible fate of freezing or starving to death. After the dog was rescued from the trap, the man decided to adopt him, making for one happy ending for one lucky dog.

The man called Bosque County Rescue Kennels, or BARK for short, after finding the dog on January 10^th. Volunteers there were told the dog was hopelessly trapped in a snare, and in dire need of help.

BARK is not allowed to go onto private property and pull a rescue, so they called in the park ranger service. The person answering the call was not only a ranger, but a volunteer member of BARK, and a Texas Parks and Wildlife game warden as well. Although he was not on the clock that day, he dropped everything he was doing to go and rescue the dog.

The warden met up with the hunter, and he was brought to where the dog had been discovered. Then the two proceeded to get the dog out of the trap, only to notice that the dog was badly injured by the trap.

They got the dog out of the woods and to an animal clinic as fast as they could. His front leg was badly damaged in the incident, and the rescuers were informed that the dog may have been trapped in that snare for as long as five days. They could tell just from the malnourished and dehydrated state the dog was brought in with.

The vet staff took care of the dog’s leg. They were able to reconstruct it, and they’re saying a full recovery is possible. However, the dog is not out of the woods yet. He’ll still need medical attention due to the lack of food and water, and the toll that took on him. As for now, he is in a foster home for some daily hydrotherapy, and regular bandage changes.

This is not where the story ends, though. The hunter was so concerned with the fate of the dog, that in the end he inquired about adopting the dog. It was decided that the hunter’s home and family would be a great fit, and they now lovingly call the dog, “Lucky.”

Puppy Rescued from Ef-3 Tornado Wreckage in Rowlett

Mr.Dog — Sat, 09 Jan 2016 23:10:33 +0000

Description Info From Licenosr: “The EF-3 tornado that went through Rowlett, TX caused the home of my friend, Michael Delgado, to completely collapse. His grandmother and brother were inside when it fell and had to be dug out from the rubble that night. When rescuers first came back to the scene on December 28th, they heard the whimper of the families yellow lab, Sawyer, and rescued him from under a wall in the kitchen. A work crew from Watermark church arrived about an hour later to begin cleanup, and we didn’t hear the whimper of Lucy, a min pin, until we were about to walk off the scene. She was under a huge wall that used to be the side of the home. It was the only pile we hadn’t worked on that entire day. Luckily she was between wall studs and had a hole she could survive in since Saturday night. She was found Monday around 5pm CST.” -Frank Lloyd Hettlinger III

When She Rescued This Husky, She Had No Idea He Would Be Saving Her

Mr.Dog — Mon, 04 Jan 2016 23:10:13 +0000

When Kyro the Siberian husky was born, he and his littermates were in trouble. Their mother wouldn’t feed them for some reason — and they only survived because a kind soul named Amanda Tromp bottle fed them.

Although she couldn’t take home the whole litter, Amanda knew she wanted to adopt Kyro, a pup she had a special bond with.

When Amanda brought Kyro home, she was dating a man who was physically abusive and treating her as a “punching bag.”

Happy 3rd Birthday to my handsome boy! This was the first day I had Kyro home. To this day he still is the one who rescued me, not the other way around. This was the photo that started my journey into the world of photography and inspired me to share with you guys. Sometimes one little moment can change your life forever. #HappyBirthday

She was isolated from her family and friends — her dog was her sole loving companion

“Am I going home with you, Hooman?” #Throwbackthursday

Her boyfriend’s violent behavior grew worse, but Amanda couldn’t help herself. However, when he turned on Kyro, that was the last straw.

“As if Mondays weren’t bad enough…” #NowIHateThemEvenMore ••••••••••••••••• @kiro7seattle is coming this morning to meet Kyro and I in person. We’ll be doing filming today and will be on the News at some point (not sure what day/time yet) sharing our story. I’m very nervous, but excited to hopefully inspire others that were in/are in the situation I was. #PuttingAStopToDemosticAbuse

The husky gave Amanda the courage to finally leave.

Happiness is full of muddy adventures #MoreMudPlease

These two have an unbreakable bond. Not only that, but they saved each other’s lives.

“I tried to help my Hooman put up lights… she says I got a little too excited.” #ITriedMyBest

The bond between human And animal- Is a conection too unique to describe. #BestFriend •••••••••••••• PC: @iamshpak

Amanda and Kyro have been through some hard times, but now they are embracing the good parts of life.

Dog Saves Family Member’s Life From Fire on Christmas Eve

Mr.Dog — Tue, 29 Dec 2015 23:10:27 +0000

The Hawman family from Saskatchewan is celebrating this holiday season for more than just your usual reasons. Their dog, Rex saved their grandmother from a house fire that broke out on Christmas Eve.

Noreen Lucas had been asleep in her bed when the fire broke out. She had been sick with pneumonia, and didn’t awaken right away. Thankfully, Rex was nearby and got her out of bed.

“I was so comatose so when Rex woke me up, dragging me, I knew there was something wrong,” Lucas said.

When the dog pulled her into the hallway, she could see that the walls were engulfed in flames. The house was becoming a massive inferno very quickly. After taking a minute to realize what was going on, she got herself up off the floor and went to help the rest of the animal family members that were also in the house.

Lucas and Rex managed to get everyone out of the burning house alive, and uninjured. There was another dog, and two cats in the home as well at the time.

The community has also come to the family’s rescue. They put together donations, food and other things to help them in their time of need. The family is very grateful for the help, but are really just glad no one was injured or worse.

Rescued Baby Deer Shares An Adorable Moment With A Loving Dog

Mr.Dog — Tue, 22 Dec 2015 23:10:05 +0000

Mishka, the Karelian bear dog, is a wildlife service dog who is specially trained to help recondition habituated bears. He does this by scaring bears who have become too reliant on human settlements for food. It’s a somewhat harsh lesson, but a necessary one.

Despite having to be menacing during work hours, Mishka is a gentle soul. So when a tiny orphaned fawn mistook him for a parent, he took his role very seriously.

Hey Disney? Are you there..? It’s me. I know what movie I’d like for Christmas, please.

Blind Dog Abandoned on Park Bench Gets Rescued

Mr.Dog — Tue, 03 Nov 2015 01:24:01 +0000

Polly is a blind dog from Santa Barbara, California. One day, some heartless creep dumped her off on a park bench, and abandoned her for good. Thanks to Foreverhome Pet Rescue, Polly has a second shot at a happy life.

It’s suspected that poor Polly was used to breed, endlessly. Once she was no longer of any use to the people that abused her for so long, they simply decided to leave her for dead somewhere.

Foreverhome Pet Rescue said that she not only had given birth very recently, but was also suffering from a heart condition and a very serious skin infection. A fundraiser was set up for her, and she would soon be on the road to recovery.

She has her very own Facebook page, where Foreverhome keeps her progress documented. If you’d like to view the page, and check out her current condition, you can click here. If you’d like to see Foreverhome Pet Rescue’s Facebook page, click here. If you’d like their main page, click here.
