Two Frightened Pit Bulls Who Huddled Each Other At Shelter On Their Way To Brighter Future

No reason was given, but when these two dogs were dropped off at the shelter by their owner, they clung to each other out of fear, uncertain of what their future might hold.
Bridget and Louie, as they are now named, were photographed upon their intake at Montgomery County Animal Shelter in Conroe, Texas this past week. Little did they know that just one day later, they would begin their journey to a new life.
Both dogs were suffering from signs of neglect, with mange and matted fur. But they were obviously attached to one another, so the shelter decided to keep them together in their kennel.
Louie, the smaller, black dog, had a barbed-metal collar jutting into his neck.
Bridget’s upper teeth were ground down to her gums and appears to have had multiple litters. The condition of her teeth could be as result of chewing on metal, such as a chain.
Dog fighters are also known to file down a female dog’s teeth to prevent injuries to males during breeding, or if they are to be used as bait animals. It’s heartbreaking, no matter what the cause.

Little Boy With a Rare Condition Lived His Life in Fear Until He Met This 3-Legged Dog
A friendship between a dog with a tragic past and a young boy struggling with his differences changed their lives forever.
In January 2012, an Anatolian Shepherd named Haatchi was not yet a year old when he was deliberately tied to a railway line in North London and hit by a train.
His tail was severed and his rear leg severely damaged. Haatchi managed to stagger away and hid for around 5 days before he was rescued by the RSPCA.
Unfortunately, due to infection, his leg and tail had to be amputated. But Haatchi overcame the unimaginable and frightening act of cruelty to become the best friend and inspiration for a young boy with a rare genetic condition.
Owen-known to his family as “little buddy” or “Little B” has a rare genetic disorder known as Schwartz-Jampel syndrome, a condition which causes his muscles to constantly seize involuntarily.
Owen had been struggling with being different and became withdrawn and anxious at school and around strangers. But everything changed the moment Owen met Haatchi. Will and Colleen Howkins, Little B’s father and stepmother, decided to introduce the big dog to Owen to see if the dog would help their son.
But they had no way of knowing that an unbelievable bond would be formed that would transform both boy and dog in miraculous ways.
Watch more of their heartwarming story in the video below.

After a 2-year-old girl went missing in the woods in Dorchester, New Hampshire, on Friday afternoon, a worried community rallied together to find her. It was a dedicated search dog who ultimately found her.
New Hampshire Fish and Game and State Police received a call about the missing toddler after she wandered off her family’s fenced front yard with their two dogs. It’s unclear if the girl or the dogs managed to open the gate, but she had been missing 45 minutes when her family contacted authorities after desperately trying to locate her. With the temperatures and sun dropping they called for help. Shortly after, hundreds of people were combing the wooded area near the family’s home. Jeremy Corson and his K-9 partner, Freya, from New England K-9 Search and Rescue, were among the searchers.
Shortly after they began looking, Freya signalled that she had found the girl, who immediately told Corson she was cold and ready for a warm bath. “You’re able to scoop her up and start asking her questions, making some assessment, and the first thing she says to me was, ‘I’m cold, I think I’m ready for a bath.’ And that just broke my heart,” he said. “I’m like, all right, let’s get you home and have that bath.”
The girl, who loves dogs, threw the ball for Freya, who loves children. “It was a very sweet moment, said Corson. The girl is doing well and Corson is relieved and happy that he and Freya could help. He told WMUR-TV it’s what he trained 13 years to do.
17-Year-Old Dog With ‘Old Man Problems’ Adopted, Then His New Mom Makes Heartfelt Promise

September 25, 2015
Rocky may have a greying muzzle and failing eyesight. He may not be able to walk up stairs or hear so well. But to his adoptive mom, the senior dog is the “best gift” she’s ever gotten.
Rocky is 17-years-old and was recently brought in to Anne Arundel County Animal Control. His last days may have been spent at the shelter, but fortunately for Rocky, he got adopted by a young couple. No wonder the senior dog was all smiles!
Friends of Anne Arundel County Animal Control shared a few details about Rocky’s touching story on Facebook.
“As you can see from the big smile on his face, life remains good for Rocky, the 17-year-old dog recently adopted from AACAC by a young Ft. Meade couple,” wrote FAACAC. “They’ve discovered that, along with walks, naps while they are gone and sticking tight by their sides when they’re home, Rocky loves Frosty Paws, an “ice cream” for dogs, which he gets as an occasional treat.
“He’s got a few old man issues, including sometimes peeing in his sleep, ‘but no biggy — we have started putting doggy diapers on him at night so when he can’t wake himself up he will be fine until the morning,’ his adopters report.”
“They’re determined to make his time with them the best it can be, as his new mom wrote in a moving promise to Rocky:
“I took you on knowing we were going to have to take extra care of you. Knowing that one day you weren’t going to make it outside in time to use the restroom and I would have to clean it up
“I knew one day I was going to have to carry you up the stairs when you no longer have the strength to do it. I knew you were going to eventually lose your hearing and eyesight and we were going to have to spend extra money to make the house safer for you. I knew one day I am going to have to say goodbye to you.
“But until then you are the best gift I have ever gotten and I’m really sad I couldn’t give you the best 17 years you deserved, but I promise you’ll have a great life from now to the day I have to say goodbye!”
How beautiful is that? Senior dogs are sadly often overlooked when it comes to adoptions at shelters. But I’m so happy to hear that Rocky is being treated with the dignity he deserves and will have a wonderful life for however much time he has remaining!
