Dog Spends 5 Days Searching For People She Loves After Nepal Floods

 


September 5, 2026


For five days, Lily has been searching for the people she loves.

After devastating floods swept through Nepal, the streets around Dhunga Bazaar were left in destruction—and the people Lily knew were suddenly gone.

Lily had grown up around the community. In the evenings, she would stay at a local hotel where people knew her, fed her and cared for her. But after the disaster, many of those people disappeared or were forced to leave. And Lily doesn’t seem to understand where they went.



For the past five days, she has continued roaming the same limited area, seemingly searching for the familiar faces she once knew. She keeps returning to the places where she had been cared for, as if she is waiting for someone to come back.

Two children who have known Lily since she was a puppy are now looking after her. But Lily is still waiting.

Her quiet vigil is heartbreaking—not only because she is searching for the people who cared for her, but because it reflects the devastating losses suffered by an entire community.

Lily doesn’t know exactly what happened. For now, all Lily can do is keep returning to the places where she remembers being loved.

October 25, 2024


These ‘candy’ corn pumpkin treats for dogs have three ingredients and are all healthy for dogs. The frozen treats are fun and easy to make too. Gone to the Snow Dogs shows how.


You’ll need:

You might want to make sure the dogs are away from the kitchen while you make these because if Kira the Snow Dog is any indication, your dogs will not be patient enough to wait for the results.

Mix the bananas, a spoon or two of plain yogurt, and a pinch of tumeric. Add a layer of the mix to the mold covering about one third. Then put it in the freezer for about an hour.

The next layer is pumpkin with a bit of yogurt and water to make it smoother and easier to pour. Add this mix as another layer to treat tray (another third) and put it into the freezer to harden.

Finally, add a layer of plain yogurt to the treats tray to fill it to the top of the mold and then put it back into the freezer for another hour or two. All done! Be sure to watch the video for the full instructions.

These healthy treats are sure to be popular so you might want to make some other Halloween treats while you are at it. Gone to The Snow Dogs has other recipes for Halloween such as her Spiderweb Donut Dog Treats, Pumpkin and Peanut butter cookies, Gummy Halloween Candy and even a Pumpkin Spice Latte for dogs.

Golden Retriever Found On L.A. Streets Was Homeless Until He Learned To Surf September 21, 2026

September 21, 2026



Hobie was a homeless Golden Retriever roaming the streets of East Los Angeles. Then just weeks later, he found himself learning to surf. Hobie was rescued by Southern California Golden Retriever Rescue and soon became part of an unusual mission: to show people just how much potential a rescue dog can have.





World champion surfer Chris de Aboitiz, founder of SUP Dog Oz, took Hobie under his wing. De Aboitiz had spent years teaching dogs to paddleboard and surf, using the water to help strengthen the bond between dogs and their people. He also travels to raise awareness for shelters and rescue dogs.

When he learned about Hobie, he saw an opportunity. Hobie had never even seen the ocean before. But over the next few weeks, De Aboitiz introduced him to the water and began teaching him how to ride a surfboard.

Then came the big test. In 2016, Hobie and De Aboitiz entered Surf City Surf Dog, a major dog surfing competition in Southern California. Hobie wasn’t just there to compete. He was there to show what a rescue dog could do. And he surprised everyone. The pair finished second in their competition.

But the best part of the story was waiting on shore. Marlene and Kevin McGlensey had fallen for Hobie and adopted him. They watched from the beach, cheering him on as their newly adopted dog took on the waves.

Hobie had started out homeless, with no idea what his future would hold. But he got a family cheering for him—and a whole ocean of possibilities ahead.

Stray Dog Runs 80 Miles Through Desert and Finds a Forever Home

 


October 7, 2024


A little stray dog earned herself a home thousands of miles away by chasing after a man in the Gobi desert. This amazing adoption story began when the British ultrarunner Dion Leonard participated in a gruelling 155-mile (250 km) race known as the 4 Deserts Race.

The race took place in China’s Gobi desert. As he was running, he was joined by a small terrier. The dog refused to leave his side through the week-long race, even as temperatures soared as high as 125 Fahrenheit (52 C)!

Leonard first noticed the dog when she showed up as the racers were running over the Tian Shan Mountains. The dog took an instant liking to Leonard. She was nicknamed “Gobi” and quickly became a fixture around camp. She followed Leonard into his tent and refused to sleep anywhere else.



“Once we had begun the stage, Gobi seemed to like the bright yellow colour of my gaiters and proceeded to run next to me,” Leonard recounted to 4 Deserts. “When she came into camp she followed me straight into my tent, laid down next to me, and that was that—a bond had been developed.”

i don’t know why she chose me,” he said. But, for him, it was his “miracle moment.”

Leonard recounts how that bond went even further as the race progressed to the point he decided that no matter what, he was going to bring Gobi home!

Leonard has written two books about his little miracle, Finding Gobi and Gobi: A Little Dog with a Big Heart


Trembling Stray Pup Just Needed Someone to Love Him

This trembling stray pup was weak, scared, and struggling to stay on his feet when he was found alone in a driveway.
He was dehydrated, hungry, covered in matted fur, and experiencing tremors that made it difficult for him to walk and keep his balance. After a trip to the animal hospital, Scruff’s rescuer, Laura, was told that his symptoms could be neurological, leaving his future uncertain at first. 

But then came a turning point. Instead of getting worse, he started getting stronger. The vet told Laura that his condition didn’t appear to be progressing the way they had feared, in fact, he was improving. 

With medication, patience, a safe home, and plenty of love, he slowly began to regain his strength. As the days passed, his personality started to shine through. The shy, timid pup who could barely stand began barking, playing, asking to go outside, and finally realising that he was home. 

This little pup’s journey is a powerful reminder of just how much a second chance, compassion, and love can mean to an animal in need.

Stray Dog Walks Right Up to Her Door and Chooses Her as His Family

When this severely neglected dog suddenly appeared on her porch, she thought he was the one who needed saving. He was desperately sick, frightened of being left behind, and had seemingly never known the care he deserved. But as she helped him heal, something unexpected happened — he began healing something in her, too. 
Sometimes dogs come into our lives because they need us. And sometimes, they show up because we need them even more.

Couple Finds An Injured Dog On A Mountain — Then A Cat Too | The Dodo

Sometimes love really does show up all at once 💛 
After a five-hour climb, Max and Issis found an injured dog named Bobo alone at the top of a mountain and knew they couldn't leave him behind. They set out to find help for Bobo — only to rescue a cat along the way, turning one unexpected mountain rescue into the beginning of a whole new family. 

She was NOT prepared for this level of affection 💗😂
Dodo producer Mackenzie's territorial cat wasn't exactly looking for a new best friend when a dog joined the family.
Her new dog sister had other ideas — and quickly made it clear that her favorite way to show affection is covering the cat in nonstop kisses.

Guardian Dog’s Work Day Adorably Interrupted By Sheep Friend

 

November 13, 2024


A guardian dog going about his day protecting a flock of sheep got his work day interrupted when a sheep stopped by to say “hello.” The video is captioned, “When you are trying to work and that one coworker won’t leave you alone!” Take a look at the cute clip below


Viewers love the clip. A person commented, “The dog is like, look….idk how many times I’ve got to tell you, but…I’M A DOG!!”

A dog’s work day gets interrupted by a sheep.


One viewer joked, “An inappropriate workplace relationship!” Another joined in, writing, “Talk about kissing up to the boss.”

“I love it. That sheep is in love. I just love animals,” wrote another.

“That’s why that breed of dog is so good working with sheep,” pointed out one viewer. Several other people agreed with one person noting, “That’s a good boy, he’s putting up with it because it’s his job. He would die trying to protect his flock. It isn’t love and it isn’t cute it’s a amazing ability that, that breed has.”

We think the sweet moment is a mix of breed instinct and affection because livestock guardian dogs thrive when they have a job to do and when they receive affection from their farm animal friends.

Abandoned Mama Dog Bravely Raising Puppies in the Bushes is So Relieved to See Rescuer

 

March 31, 2024


Dog Rescue Shelter in Serbia received an early morning call with video from a woman who told them that she heard puppies in the bushes by the side of the road. So Milan, the rescue’s founder, went out to the spot and spotted an area with thick branches in the bushes. He saw a pair of golden eyes peering from the bushes.


Milan coaxed the Pit bull mix out of the bushes with food and he noticed she had no fur around her neck, indicating that she was tied up on a chain for a long time.

Fortunately, she was very gentle. When he peeked into the bushes he spotted three puppies, but sadly one had died.

The mama watched with her tail wagging as Milan took her babies and put them in a box. It’s as if the friendly girl knew she and her pups were going somewhere safe.

Back at the shelter she is being fed big bowls of food which she gobbles up. And she is getting medicine to treat the parasites. Her puppies are also getting medicine. They will all continue to get better and hopefully find homes. But one thing is for sure, they won’t perish as they would have done had they not been found and rescued.

German Shepherd Missing for 55 Days Rescued by Camper

 

August 30, 2024


A German Shepherd who was lost for 55 days in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in Minnesota has been happily reunited with her mom. The happy rescue is thanks to a dedicated volunteer who camped in the area for several days until he caught her.

Lessie the dog bolted from her family when the car her owner was in ran into a wall and flipped at the end of June. Searchers couldn’t find the dog, but a month later she was spotted about three miles away from the accident scene.

“I knew she could survive. Dogs are really smart,” Jennifer Cadigan with the lost dog group The Retrievers told Fox9. The Retrievers is a Minnesota-based all-volunteer organization dedicated to providing lost dog support services.


One of their volunteers, a man from Minneapolis, volunteered to camp out near the area where Lessie was last seen. He had some training and left out some food and a trail cam behind his campsite

Lessie approaches the man who helped rescue her.

He caught sight of her the first night. By the fourth day he could feed her and put a leash on her. It took a second for Lessie to recognize her mom when she was reunited with her but when she did she “exploded with happiness.”

As to how Lessie survived so long in the wilds, her rescuers speculate she at moose poop and the fish guts that outdoorsmen throw out in the area.

Blind Spaniel Has Clever Way of Playing Fetch

 

September 4, 2020


Keller the English Springer Spaniel was born completely blind. His family adopted him when he was a puppy and wanted him to enjoy playing fetch like their other dogs.

They started with using a bell to help him locate the ball, but once the ball stopped moving he still needed commands in order to find it. The bell also couldn’t be used in the water because it sank.

Keller’s guardian wrote, “Keller was originally trained to play ball with the commands ‘hot’ and ‘cold’. We later added ‘warmer’, ‘past it’, ‘left” and ‘right’. The process took about a week for the basic commands.”

With his special training, Keller can not only play with any type of ball, he also loves to play fetch in the water.

The family says they hope that sharing Kellar’s story “will encourage people to think about a special needs pet. They have so much to give back to us, if someone gives them a chance.”
