His images were circulating in various Facebook groups in our area, with people asking for help for this poor animal in obvious distress. He wouldn't let anyone get close to him. At last, we managed to locate him and we ran after him for half a day, 𤯠(given his injured neck we didn't want to put a collar on him). In the end he gave in and he let us take him. He was immediately operated on to remove the collar and treat his injuries. We wish him a speedy recovery because he both deserves it and needs it.
The Team At Ernesto's Saves A Severely Injured Dog
Warning: This dog was severely injured around the neck and the video may be difficult to watch. But I'm sharing this because the work this organization does is so important. These men take care of the most vulnerable and injured animals and deserve to be recognized for that work.

10 Critical Steps to Take If You See a Dog in a Hot Car
July 23, 2018
We hope you never have to be in the situation where you find a dog trapped in a hot car. But if you do, itâs important to have a few tips in mind before pulling out the crowbar and smashing a vehicleâs window.
Common sense is the place to start, and being forearmed with some knowledge also goes a long way.
1. Know what the laws are in your area. Every town, state and province has their own rules when it comes to helping a pet in a vehicle in extreme weather. In some states it is illegal to break into a vehicle yourself â it has to be carried out by the authorities.
In other states, Good Samaritan laws allow people to break into a vehicle, as long as all efforts (including calling the authorities) have been exhausted beforehand.
So, check with your local animal control or humane society to know the rules in your hometown. While you are doing that make note of the emergency numbers you should call and program them into your mobile phone so you will have them if you need them.
2. If you see a dog in a car on a hot day, immediately make note of the time. Also check to see if the car is running and has the A/C on. Some people do leave their pets in the car with air conditioning while they run their errands. If the A/C is on, you donât have to worry. If it is a hot temperature, then every minute counts.

Dog Hugs Dad Who Finally Could Come Back To Shelter And Save Him
Reshareworthy
March 14, 2018
It took four months, but Lewis Jimenez was finally reunited with his beloved dog, Titus, after he was forced to give him up.
Lewis had to bring Titus back to Austin Animal Center, the shelter where he had adopted him as a puppy, after he was told he couldnât keep the Pit bull in the apartment where he lived. If he didnât get rid of the dog, he would be evicted.
Lewis didnât have another place to stay and he didnât have anyone who could look after Titus so he brought Titus to the shelter.
Although he told the shelter staff he would be back for Titus, the staff were skeptical, because it is something they hear often from owners and they just donât carry through. But Lewis and his family came back as soon as they could, and Austin Animal Center shared the happy day on Facebook and made sure a photographer was there to take photos of the happy reunion.
The shelter writes:
âThese pictures right here make our hearts so happy.
âTitus has been with us for 4 months. His family was forced to surrender him due to problems with their apartment complex, but theyâve been moving mountains to bring him home ever since.â
âTitus has been stressed out at the shelter and generally having a tough time. His family would come visit him, but we canât imagine the heartbreak for them or him every time they had to leave without him. They had raised him from puppyhood; they were the only family heâs ever known.â
âYesterday was the day weâve all been waiting for. With new housing in place, Titusâ dad came to take him home. And as you can see from the photos, happiness is an understatement for this moment.â
Itâs wonderful to see these two reunited and so happy. Thank goodness Lewis was able to find a pet-friendly home so that the two can again be a family!
Tiny Dog Stays with Missing 3-Year-Old in Cornfield Overnight Until Help Arrives
June 19, 2018
What would have been a terrifying night for a 3-year-old, wasnât so scary because she had her faithful dog with her.
Three-year-old Remy disappeared near her home in Qulin, Missouri on Thursday and police officers and volunteers combed the cornfields for nearly 12 hours until they finally found her Friday morning, with her Yorkshire terrier, Fat Heath, by her side.
Timber Merritt, Remyâs mom, knew she needed help finding her little girl. âI looked for her by myself thinking maybe she was just in the woods or somewhere where I just couldnât see her,â Merritt told KFVS-TV. âAnd I was calling for her and calling for her, and when she wasnât calling back I realized, âI donât think Iâm going to find her on my own.'â
The groups who searched in the cornfields said that the corn felt like ârazor blades cutting youâ and it was difficult to orient yourself when people yelled out.

It was Merritâs brother, Quinlin, who ended up finding Remy. He found her and Fat Heath about a half a mile away from the house and she was asleep.
âShe was definitely exhausted, hot, really sweaty and it took a while to drink anything,â said Remy. Remy suffered from mosquito bites but otherwise is back to normal.
The toddler told her mom she wasnât scared because her dog was with her.
âShe said she wasnât scared because Fat Heath was there, Merritt told KFVS-TV. âIf he wasnât I think she wouldâve been terrified.â
Her faithful dog made sure the scary night wasnât worse.

For three years, postal worker Ian Burke delivered mail to an elderly, wheelchair-bound Vietnam veteran and his dog, Floyd. Over time, during his daily rounds, he grew to look forward to seeing the pair.

When Burkeâs route changed last year, he lost touch with themâuntil the mail carrier who took over let him know the veteran had passed away and that Floyd was now at an animal shelter. Burke knew immediately that he had to become Floydâs new dad.
He headed straight to the Linda McNatt Animal Adoption Center, where Floyd had ended up. He told KHOU 11 News, âI went down the shelter at about 10 a.m. is when they opened. I got there at 9:50 to make sure I was first in line.â

Shy Senior Shelter Dog with Limp Blossoms After Young Couple Takes a Chance on Her
May 31, 2025
Sammie and her boyfriend were in Florida for school when they decided to visit Miami-Dade Animal Services. Thatâs where they first saw Linda, a shy senior German Shepherd with a bad limp. Linda had been at the shelter for several months with no interest from adopters, but something about her touched Sammie, and they decided to give her a home.
They quickly noticed that Linda was flat-footed, nervous about being inside a house, and uninterested in toys. Veterinarians suspected she had been confined in a cage, which accounted for her poor gait. She was also likely used as a breeding dog, having had several litters of puppies.
Despite her initial hesitation, Linda was clearly happy to be out of the shelter and slowly warmed up to her new family and surroundings. With dedicated care and a consistent health regimen, she progressed from being barely mobile to running and playing in the snow.
Linda now loves toys and impresses everyone she meets with how very calm and friendly she is. Sammie says seniors like Linda deserve a second chance because âthey have do much heart and love to give.
