If you visit Central Park in New York City you may come across a bronze statue of a dog labeled “Balto”. But you may not know the story of this heroic dog and what he did to save the lives of children. The statue was erected in 1925, the year in which Balto, a sled dog in Alaska, saved the children in the town of Nome from a serious diphtheria outbreak.

That year, the town was stricken with the disease, which is a bacterial infection that was quite serious at the time and especially dangerous to children as it would cause the throat and airways to swell, leading to croup and respiratory problems that could be life threatening

In January of 1925, the town of Nome ran out of the antitoxin used to treat infected patients. As the infection spread and more children died, the town’s doctor sent out an urgent plea to have the serum delivered. Without it, adults and children would die; the expected mortality rate was close to 100 percent!

‘No One Had Time’ For Senior Collie Left At Shelter Except For His Dedicated Rescuers

August 1, 2015

Animal shelters see all kinds of dogs, with all kinds of stories as to why they end up there. Usually, though, their stories are heartbreaking ones. Like Jake’s. Jake arrived at Ohio’s Humane Society Serving Crawford County, a senior dog, whose family decided they no longer wanted him.

“Yesterday a beautiful 16 year old Collie came to us. He was surrendered because no one had time for him. After 16 years of being a loyal companion, guardian of children, confidant and protector he was discarded,” the Humane Society wrote on Facebook. “We gave him the quietest kennel we could find as he looked around in fear and confusion. He didn’t question or fight… he followed me with trust and dignity and the wisdom that comes with old dogs.”

They settled him in and immediately began calling and emailing their friends at various rescues. Within hours they had a rescue lined up to come and pick him up.

Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio agreed to take Jake and the two volunteers who went to pick him up cried when they saw his precious old face and beautiful soul.

Loyal Dog Keeps Her Dad Alive After He Suffers Traumatic Fall That Traps Him In Freezing Snow

February 4, 2024

A Michigan man survived a harrowing ordeal thanks to his loyal Golden Retriever, Kelsey. At 10:30pm at night on New Year’s Eve, Bob went outside to grab another log for his fire when he slipped and broke his neck. Unable to move, he called out for help but Bob’s nearest neighbor lived a quarter-mile away and no one could hear him except his dog.

Kelsey ran out to Bob as he lay paralyzed in the snow and temperatures dropped below freezing. The loyal dog lay on top of him and she licked his face and hands to try and keep him warm.

“She kept barking for help but never left my side,” said Bob. “She kept me warm and alert. I knew I had to persevere through this and that it was my choice to stay alive.”

For 20 hours Bob and Kelsey lay outside in the freezing cold. Kelsey’s barks attracted the attention of a neighbor, who found the pair the next night.
Bob was rushed to hospital and diagnosed as hypothermic, but miraculously he did not have any frostbite – no doubt thanks to Kelsey’s actions. Bob had herniated discs in his neck and back that was causing paralysis in his legs but he has undergone successful surgery and is “on the road to recovery”.

Both doctors and Bob credit Kelsey as the true hero of Bob’s 20-hour ordeal saying that she was “vital” in keeping him alive!

Perfect Homemade Dog Biscuits

November 27, 2017

This article was submitted to DogHeirs by Ally FurAnimals

Like many of you, I’ve been looking for ways to save money without compromising my dog’s healthy diet. I decided to try making homemade treats, and I am SO glad I did! It is wonderful to only have to go to your freezer when the pups run out of cookies rather than the pet store…after checking your account balance first, lol!

Here is a very healthy and DELICIOUS recipe for cookies for your furbabies. I have sampled these treats with many ‘picky’ eaters and it’s a hit every single time, everyone asks for this recipe! All it takes is a few hours on a weekend day to make enough for a couple months! (This time of the year, I like to make REALLY big batches to last all summer to avoid turning the oven on when it’s hot out)

Leave out what your dog(s) will go through in a week or two and freeze the rest for later. Have fun!!
