Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.... Or as Scarlett O'Hara said - I'll think about it all tomorrow.

This little dog was adopted and was so happy on his first day in his new home that he couldn’t even sleep. He kept trying to lie down, but his tail wouldn’t stop wagging

Retired Wilmington Police Department K9 Karson passed away peacefully on Wednesday, August 19, 2026, following a period of declining health. The beloved Belgian Malinois was humanely euthanized to prevent further pain and discomfort from age-related illnesses, including severe muscle loss, weak back legs, and failing eyesight and hearing.

The Wilmington Police Department honored Karson's dedication with a formal police escort for his final ride to the Suburban Veterinary Clinic in Centerville, Ohio.
Before crossing the Rainbow Bridge, his longtime handler and partner, former officer J.J. Popp, spoiled him with a final meal of a New York Strip steak and donut holes.

The hare is an iconic animal. Yet still hunted, still shot. Their lives matter, to them, and to us.

They said this cow was worthless.
$400. That’s what they paid for a black-and-white that most folks at the sale barn had already written off. Too weak, too far gone, not worth the feed or the trouble.
Two weeks later DJ is standing on his own, following the guys around the yard like he owns the place. They named him DJ because he perked up every time they played music in the barn while they were nursing him back.
That’s the part that gets me.
In farming you see it all the time — the ones that look like they won’t make it are the ones that end up surprising you the most. The ones everyone else walks past. A little extra care, a little patience, and suddenly you’ve got something that was never supposed to be there.
It’s a good reminder that value isn’t always sitting there in the obvious places. Sometimes you have to look past what’s on paper and give something a real chance.
Anybody else ever bought something “worthless” that turned out to be one of the best calls you ever made?

Cargo is officially the last Labrador-cross pup still looking for his forever home! 🐾❤️
He had a bath today, so we thought… why not show you his wet and soppy side? 😂🛁
Look at that face! How can anyone resist those puppy-eyes?
Come on, guys — Cargo is ready to leave his soggy spa day behind and find his very own little home. 🥹🏡
Give this gorgeous boy a chance 🙏🏻❤️

🚨 Last call for Liutenant Limeade, now under kill command. Arrived end of July so scared he peed himself, visibly trembling w/ tail tucked, hides in back of kennel & has to be lassoed out. He is trying his best to cooperate, timid, had a gate greeting w/ helper dog & was neutral.

🚨 Someone knows who hurt this dog, and we NEED answers 🚨

This dog likely experienced horrific violence in illegal dogfights before being left bleeding and terrified in an alley by the person who was supposed to love and protect him 💔 If you know anything, please come forward!

She had no food, no shelter, and no one to help
But this brave mama stood strong, protecting her puppies through every danger
Her love was her shield — and it saved them all 💛

Sunshine is a gorgeous Rottweiler mix with a wonderful balance of independence and affection.

She walks great on a leash without pulling, although she has been known to want to stop and smell interesting spots along the way. Loose in the play yard she’s

They’re stolen from their families, deprived of all freedom, and treated as if their bodies don't belong to them 💔 Animals lose EVERYTHING when they're forced to endure experiments.

Meet Sophia, a 22-year-old, geriatric horse.

In December 2025, at the first-ever independent exam of NYC's carriage horses, Dr. Kraig Kulikowski found her unfit for work. She was found to be in pain, with apparent leg issues.

Seven months later, Sophia was spotted limping in Central Park, barely able to walk, her horseshoe falling off. A witness had to step in and demand the driver pull over. She was pulling a carriage full of passengers, creating an incredibly dangerous situation. She could have collapsed, seriously injuring herself, the passengers, the driver, and others in Central Park.

We fear Sophia is still being worked in this condition. That's not acceptable.

So we're making a direct plea to her owner: retire Sophia. A sanctuary is ready and waiting for her, and we are prepared to help cover the costs. She's given enough. She deserves to rest.

Please use the link in our bio to send an automatic email urging your City Council Member to co-sponsor and pass Romanch’s Law (Intro 943) and ban deadly horse carriages.

[Give A Shit About Nature @giveashitnature]

Ventura, California just banned the sale and use of glue traps. The Ventura city council voted 6 to 1, making it the fourth US city to do it and the largest so far.

Glue traps don't choose who to trap. Wildlife rehabbers pull songbirds, owls, bats, lizards, snakes and squirrels off of them all the time, and one national rehab database has documented 180 different species. Anything that lands on one is stuck.

That includes pets. The councilmember who introduced the ordinance said a friend's dog found a trap with a rodent on it, swallowed about half of it, and didn't survive.

An animal caught on a glue board takes hours to die, from dehydration, blood loss or suffocation. Many tear their own skin off trying to get free. Some chew through a limb.

Target, CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Dollar General and Dollar Tree have all stopped selling them. More than 100 US airports have banned their use. The UK restricted them. So did New Zealand and much of Australia.

Ventura's ordinance does carry exemptions, including for public health and vector control work and agricultural operations, so it isn't absolute. The dissenting vote came from a councilmember worried about restaurants and pest control companies.

If you have a rodent problem, the best approach is to seal the entry points, put food in containers, and use snap traps, which kill in seconds instead of hours.

And skip the rat poison too, unless you'd like to also kill the owls, foxes, and hawks that hunt your rodents for free.
