Falkor is a really, really good dog.
This stunning white German Shepard is back with us due to housing issues (nothing to do with him), and but he's taking it all in stride.
He has that amazing, classic GSD mix of brains, looks, and heart. He's still the happy-go-lucky dog we know him to be. Falkor is open to meeting kids and other dogs, and we hope his stay with us is short. He’s a good one.
Come meet Falkor and see for yourself!

We're deeply saddened to share the passing of our red panda, Khumbie❤️
During his annual exam, he was diagnosed with cancer, and our team made the difficult and compassionate decision to humanely euthanize him. At 11, he was entering his geriatric years. 1/4
🚨 BREAKING: Beagles Rescued From Laboratory — But the Fight Isn’t Over Yet
In a dramatic and emotional turn of events today, 22 beagles have been rescued from a life inside the laboratory walls of Ridglan Farms in Wisconsin — a facility long criticised for breeding dogs specifically for animal experimentation.
For these gentle, trusting dogs, the rescue marks the first moment of freedom they have likely ever known. Beagles are the most commonly used dog breed in laboratory testing because of their small size, docile temperament, and willingness to trust humans — traits that tragically make them easy victims of the research industry.
But the story has taken a troubling twist. According to rescuers on the ground, around eight of the rescued dogs have now been seized by the Dane County Sheriff’s Office. Those dogs could potentially be returned to Ridglan Farms — a facility where investigators and campaigners say animals have been subjected to documented cruelty and severe neglect.
This development has sparked outrage among animal advocates across the United States, who say sending the dogs back would place them right back into the system they were just freed from.
Ridglan Farms has long been at the centre of controversy. The Wisconsin facility breeds hundreds of dogs for experimentation, and activists spent over a year attempting to have the company prosecuted for alleged felony animal cruelty.
Despite the evidence presented, campaigners say Ridglan ultimately negotiated its way out of the felony charges, leaving many advocates feeling the justice system had failed the animals trapped inside the facility.
Today’s rescue operation was carried out by a coalition of activists led by @waynehhsiung and @realgaryyourofsky determined to bring at least some of the dogs to safety.
But unless the remaining seized dogs are released back to rescuers, that hope could be short-lived.
Animal advocates are now urging the public to take immediate action.
📞 Call the Dane County Sheriff’s Office and ask them to release the seized dogs to rescuers rather than returning them to the laboratory:

California's Skid Row has been hiding a dirty secret as countless dogs are starved, drugged and denied medical care while officials reportedly turn a blind eye.
Animal advocates say the situation has worsened in recent years, with pregnant dogs giving birth on the streets, others tied up in the sun, crammed into tiny cages, beaten and even subjected to drugs.
Joey Tuccio, an animal rescuer with the nonprofit Starts With One Today, told the Daily Mail: 'There are hundreds of dogs on Skid Row.
'This has been happening for 10 years. We get no support from Los Angeles leaders, and the last time dozens of animal rescuers spoke at City Hall, nearly all council members walked out.'
According to advocates with Starts With One Today, dogs are often bred illegally and traded for money, sexual favors or drugs.
'We recently reported an unhinged animal abuser on Skid Row who thinks she's in the Illuminati,' Tuccio said.
Sven is still healing.
His body and his spirit have been bruised. But with each day he spends with us, we see a little more of the real Sven shining through.
And we just know his best days are still ahead of him.

Six years ago today, Ahmaud Arbery was senselessly killed while doing something as simple as going for a run. His life mattered. His memory endures. Today we pause to honor him, hold his family in our hearts, and recommit to the work of building a world where no one has to fear simply existing. Rest in power, Ahmaud. 🕊️
SCUMBAGS OF THE DAY 😡
This is OAKLEY HOLLANDS, 20 (left) and LEIGHTON ASHBY, 22 (right) who beat a sheep to death and then blew it up with explosives in a "sadistic" act.
The pair, formerly agricultural students at Plumpton College, East Sussex subjected a year-old ewe to horrific torture before blowing up its body by inserting explosives into several orifices on the South Downs.
A Sussex Police search of Hollands' phone found a video of a dead fox being cut in half - with the public fearing they "will transfer this behaviour into their relationships with humans".
Ashby was jailed for two years. Hollands was sentenced to 20 months in a young offenders’ institution.
