A Dog’s Journey to Find a Home to Return To 💓

Cactus was lying on the bed when Cowboy came over. The foster dog did not rush towards him. He moved a little at a time, then turned his head to look at his owner, as if waiting for a signal. Only when he seemed sure that he could continue did Cowboy slip into the space beside Cactus.

Cactus did not move away. He did not growl or push Cowboy aside either. He simply turned to look at him, then allowed the shy dog to lie close beside him. Before long, the two dogs were lying next to each other, cuddled up and asleep.

At first glance, this was simply a small moment in the everyday lives of two dogs. But it was the moment when Cowboy turned to look at his owner that made the story particularly noteworthy.

Cowboy was still getting used to a new environment. Cactus was already a house dog, familiar with the bed, the room and the people around him. Cowboy was not yet certain where he fitted into this new world. So rather than moving straight into Cactus’s space, he approached cautiously, one small step at a time.

Dogs are social animals with rich social lives, and they are highly responsive to signals from those around them. In an unfamiliar situation, they may observe the reactions of people or other dogs before deciding what to do next. For Cowboy, turning to look at his owner may have been a form of social referencing: he was gathering more information before deciding whether to move forwards.

What is particularly interesting is that Cowboy was not placed beside Cactus. He chose to close the distance himself.

He moved closer. He paused. He watched. Then he continued.

Cactus was communicating too, even though he was doing very little. He did not growl, move away or keep his distance. That lack of resistance became a clear enough signal for Cowboy to remain beside him.

So the final cuddle is only the most visible part of the story. The more interesting part lies in the seconds beforehand, when a newly arrived dog was watching both his human and his new companion, trying to understand how he might enter this new relationship.

After spending some time living together, Cowboy’s story took another turn. His owner decided that he would no longer be simply a foster dog, and chose to adopt Cowboy permanently.

That decision gives the image of the two dogs lying close together another meaning. Cowboy had not only found a companion to sleep beside on that bed. He had found a family where his presence was welcomed as a natural part of everyday life.

Perhaps the happiness of a dog who is adopted does not lie in any single special moment. It can come from very ordinary things: a familiar bed, someone who is always there, another dog to lie beside, and the feeling that tomorrow, he will still be returning to the same home.

This was filmed at Animal Shelter in Springfield, Illinois on a Tuesday afternoon.
The man is Glen, 50 years old. A high school shop teacher from the north side of Springfield. He came to Animal Shelter on his lunch break because his daughter had been asking him for months to at least go and look. He told himself he was just browsing.
Just getting it out of the way so he could honestly tell her he had tried.
Glen spent about twenty minutes in one of the meet rooms with a three-year-old brown mixed breed named Hector. Hector had been at Animal Shelter for seven months. He had been returned to the shelter twice. The notes in his file said he was too attached.
Followed people too closely. Didn't do well with being lett alone.
Glen sat on the floor with Hector. Let the dog climb into his lap. Scratched his ears. It was pleasant.
Normal. The kind of interaction Glen figured would happen.
Then Glen stood up to leave.
Hector went straight up with him.
Not barking. Not jumping in the usual sense. He climbed. Both front legs wrapped around Glen's midsection. Face pressed hard into Glen's chest.
Completely quiet. Just holding on.
Glen stumbled back a half step. Looked down.
Hector looked up at him.
The shelter hallway went completely quiet. The staff member near the door told us she stopped moving.
Glen tried to lower Hector gently. Hector pressed in harder.
Glen stood there for a long moment. Then something in him changed. His shoulders dropped. He sat back down on the floor with Hector still attached to him, both of them landing together.
Glen held the dog for a long time without saying anything.
Eventually he looked up at the staff member and said: "What do I need to fill out?"
He adopted Hector that afternoon.
Glen's daughter called the shelter two days later, laughing and crying at the same time. She said her dad, who had said for years he wasn't a dog person, was now sleeping on the couch with Hector on his chest because he didn't want to wake him up by moving.
The shelter coordinator told us: "Hector gets called too attached in every return note. But Glen didn't see a problem. He saw a dog who needed someone to stay. And he stayed."
Some flaws are just love without anywhere to go yet.

Unsere Nachbarin ist 85. Ihr Mann ist vor 10 Jahren verstorben, Kinder hat sie keine, Auto auch nicht. Also helfen wir hin und wieder beim Einkaufen oder wenn etwas nicht funktioniert.

Wenn man dann mal länger mit ihr spricht, merkt man erst, wie der Alltag für viele alte Menschen heute wirklich aussieht.

Der nächste Geldautomat? 10 km entfernt.
Die nächste Bankfiliale? 15 km.
Das nächste Geschäft? 3 km.
Die nächste Bushaltestelle? 1 km.

Und gleichzeitig setzen wir Dinge voraus, die für uns völlig normal sind.

Online-Banking? Hat sie nicht.
Smartphone? Noch nie besessen.
E-Mail-Adresse? Keine.
Internet? Hat sie. Weil man ihr irgendwann einen Anschluss verkauft hat.

Wir bauen Bankfilialen, Schalter und persönliche Ansprechpartner ab und ersetzen sie durch Apps, Portale und QR-Codes.

Und nennen das dann Fortschritt.

Für uns vielleicht.
Für sie wird die Welt dadurch jeden Tag ein Stück kleiner.

Podruhé za šest let jsem udělal výjimku a pustil ČT inteview 24. Pozván tam byl Ministr zahraničí Macinka. Nejsem Macinkův obdivovatel a nic se po tomhle pořadu nezměnilo. Moderátor je ale opravdu debil, nebo se tak aspoň jevil. Vůbec se nedivím současné vládě že bojuje s médii.

The RDK guy the SBU agents kidnapped is Stepan Kaplunov, call sign "Landsknecht". Russian neo-Nazi who left Russia to join Azov back in 2014. He participated in the Bryansk oblast raid in February 2023 when the RDK jumped across the border, shot some civilians and left.

He publicly called for the execution of Russian prisoners of war and promised a cash bounty for photos of dead Russian POWs. CNN did a cute little interview with him back in 2022.

George Soros received $260M from USAID.

He didn't spend his own money to destroy the American justice system.

He used ours.

[Marta Havryshko @HavryshkoMarta]

Ukraine’s crime saga rolls on.

Today, in Kyiv, a HUR officer is on trial after being detained following a shootout with the SBU over the abduction of Stepan Kaplunov, a Russian neo-Nazi and commander in the RDK.

The far-right boys Budanov took under his wing in military intelligence have already started raising a cool million for his bail. How touching. But why the sudden generosity? Perhaps the gentleman has been accused of something after all.

In short, the family feud inside Ukraine’s security services continues. The only question left is: who are the CIA and MI6 rooting for in this little domestic drama?

Must be a difficult choice. They’re both practically family.💔
