I’ve probably watched this over 100 times now and the ending still kills me every time 😂😭

@pgh_scanner Huh?!

@IndianaGPA The best part is the way Pika turned around.

[The Figen @TheFigen_]

In 1984, 11-year-old boy was kidnapped and sexually ab*s*d by his karate instructor, Jeffrey Doucet.
His father, Gary Plauché, tracked Doucet to Baton Rouge airport and shot him dead on live TV—this moment was captured by TV cameras. Plauché was convicted of manslaughter but served no prison time; he received a 7-year suspended sentence, 5 years of probation, and community service.

Perfect dad! ❤️👌

@BlondeOfWar A man dressed like a man is the most wholesome part of this almost.

[Alison Martin @AlisonLM420]

@WPXI I hate people.

[Alison Martin @AlisonLM420]

@pgh_scanner They must be enjoying the view.

[Alison Martin @AlisonLM420]

@pgh_scanner Congrats to them and welcome to the world little one! I love hearing a story where the police help the community in such a genuine way. Not much more precious than a new life coming into the world.

@Geniustechw Even the horse knows this aint right. If your behind is bigger than the horses behind then you shouldn't ride.

I must agree … something has gone horribly wrong.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

"You can't take both," the shelter manager said, shaking her head. "It's too much work. Just pick the Shepherd. He's highly adoptable. The little one... well, he's just baggage."

I looked through the chain-link fence and my heart broke. Atlas (the 85-pound Shepherd) wasn't growling. He was frozen in a statue-like pose.

He was lying on the cold concrete, his massive body curled into a protective "C" shape. Tucked deeply inside that curve, shielded by Atlas’s front paws, was Barnaby—a 6-pound Chihuahua mix who was shaking so hard his teeth were literally clicking.

Barnaby wasn't looking at me. He was staring up at Atlas’s chin, his eyes wide with panic. Atlas wasn't looking at the treat in my hand. He was staring at me, his eyes communicating one clear message: If you want him, you go through me.

They had come in together three weeks ago. An eviction case. The family simply left them in the apartment when they moved out. For three years, Atlas had been Barnaby's bodyguard. And Barnaby had been Atlas's emotional anchor.

The kennel staff told me that when they tried to separate them for walks, Atlas would scream. Not a bark—a scream. He would chew the metal fencing until his gums bled, frantic to get back to his tiny friend.

"I'm not picking one," I said, handing the clipboard back. "I'm taking the set."

The manager sighed. "You're signing up for a nightmare. Two vet bills. Two personalities. One has anxiety, the other is protective. It’s a lot."

I signed the papers anyway.

The ride home was chaos. Not because they were bad, but because Atlas refused to sit in the back seat unless Barnaby's crate was strapped in right next to him.

He had to be able to smell him. He pushed his nose through the crate bars the entire 40-minute drive, just to let Barnaby know he was still there.

That was four months ago. The manager was right about the bills—they are double. But she was wrong about the nightmare. I didn't just save two dogs. I saved a marriage.

They don't do a single thing apart. They eat from bowls placed side-by-side. They sleep in a pile on the rug (Barnaby usually uses Atlas's ear as a blanket). If Barnaby barks at the mailman, Atlas runs to the window to back him up, adding his deep "woof" to the little guy's squeaks.

I watch them sometimes, sleeping in a tangle of limbs, and I realize how close they came to being ripped apart. If I had listened to the "logic," Barnaby would probably be gone by now, and Atlas would be grieving in a cage somewhere.

If you ever see a "Bonded Pair" sticker on a kennel, don't pity them. Envy them. We should all be so lucky to have a friend who would chew through a metal fence just to make sure we're okay.

@WPXI I start freaking out and go to the school to look for my daughter if shes like 30 seconds late getting home from school, we live next to it. Why wasn't the family trying to locate him?!

[Memes Universidad Nacional @nacional_memes]

En Estados Unidos un perro policía llamado Blitz se negó a quitarse los stickers que unos niños de kínder le pegaron durante una visita escolar. 🐶

Blitz llegó con su guía para que los pequeños lo conocieran. Cuando empezaron a cubrirlo con estrellitas y caritas felices en el chaleco y el lomo, Blitz se quedó quieto, tranquilo, dejando que siguieran con su juego.

Al terminar, su guía intentó retirarle los stickers. Pero Blitz giró el cuerpo y movió las patas para conservarlos un poco más, como si quisiera guardar ese cariño.

Al final, volvió a la patrulla con el chaleco lleno de colores, caminando orgulloso como quien sabe que hizo sonreír a muchos niños.

World needs more people like him.

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

A brave man.

An 87-year-old woman had her purse stolen in a grocery store, until Deshawn Pressley chased the suspect down, tackled him, and held him for deputies.

He was later awarded a Citizen’s Award.

A nation doesn’t get lost overnight, it’s given away one compromise at a time. The Bible warns what happens when a people stop protecting what they’re blessed with. 🙏🏾

This is America. Let’s make sure everybody knows it. Let’s bring back American pride to the fullest. 💪🏾 🇺🇸 #explore #fyp
