Leaving his pal behind without having a familiar place to sleep did not sit well with Dad. How could he leave his friend in a cage, in some strange kennel? It hardly seemed right, so Dad decided to do whatever it took to ensure that Igor would not be forced to stay overnight in a kennel.

It is truly incredible how far some dog parents will go to ensure the comfort and security of their furry friends. Dad spent hours of his life planning and building a temporary home for Igor, so that the family could go on vacation without worry and Igor would have a place to stay that was familiar to him and set up in the exact manner that he likes best.

Now named Rusty Diamond, this dog now has a chance at a new and happy life.

The post An emotional and inspiring dog rescue story appeared first on ILoveDogsAndPuppies.

After some time and much-needed nursing back to health, all of the pups and their mom were adopted.

If they hadn’t been found at just the right time, things could have gone very differently for these adorable dogs.

It’s mind-boggling to think someone could be so heartless to these cuties.

It didn’t take long for them to find families ready to take the precious pups and their mother into their homes.

But the folks who rescued the dogs couldn’t quite part with all of the puppies, keeping this sweet little girl for themselves.

Now named Vackor, the family regularly updates a blog about her “petite adventures.”

She loves joining her humans on journeys around town.

She loves showing off for the camera.

She’s grown up to be quite the lady.

Though she’ll never be too big to fit in the bike basket for a ride.

She’s ever curious.

And she might be a tad bit spoiled.

She’s pretty popular and has a ton of street dog besties.

What a happy ending to a sad start to life. These pups are seriously lucky. You can find even more adorable photos and follow along on all Vackor’s awesome adventures on her blog.

The post This Rescue Story Will Make You Mad, But Then The End Will Make You SO Happy appeared first on ILoveDogsAndPuppies.

Lily was born in South Africa, left to raise herself and survive on her own in the streets. She often trotted around villages and school yards, rummaging for scraps and trash just to stay alive. Nearby locals looked down on her, and considered her survival tactics annoying and bothersome. One afternoon, after she had been looking for food near a school yard, the headmaster saw her, and commanded two janitors to bury her alive.

Lucky for Lily, some loving individuals from the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) had been anonymously notified about the burial, and immediately went to rescue her. They found Lily 30 minutes later in a 5 foot deep pit, covered with dirt, barley able to breath. That was actually when they named her Lily, their term of endearment for “Warrior”.

Lily’s story swept the nation, and shed light on the fact that more animal welfare programs were needed in South Africa. It wasn’t long after; that a humane education program began at the very school Lily had been abducted at. The Cape Town court also issued the headmaster and janitors with animal abuse fines, along with criminal sentences.

Lily’s legacy lives on till this day through IFAW’s blanket drive which helps provide hand-sewn blankets to dogs living animal shelters! Each blanket is constructed of individual fabric squares that each have a personal message written on it!

The good news doesn’t end there though. Shortly after Lily’s story hit the news, an animal rights journalist adopted her into her forever family. A true happily ever after!
