Deaf Shelter Dog Cries Alone After Her Best Friend Is Adopted

Any time a shelter animal finds his or her forever home, it's always a cause for celebration — except, of course, for those they leave behind.

For the better part of a year, this deaf pit bull named Marshmallow had shared a kennel with her best friend, Scooby, at Unleashed Pet Rescue, in Kansas. There, amid the uncertainty of a life without a family, the pair were able to find solace and joy in one another. But sadly for Marshmallow, that recently all changed.



Earlier this week, Scooby's long wait at the rescue shelter came to an end as she was selected by a loving family, but unfortunately they were not able to take in Marshmallow as well. Suddenly on her own for the first time in months, the lonely pup was inconsolable.

"Marshmallow is crying and has been non stop since yesterday," Unleashed Pet Rescue wrote on Facebook. "Her roommate and best friend Scooby was adopted, she is very confused and sad. What she needs is a forever home to heal her heart."

Now that Marshmallow's friend has gone off to start her happy life as a cherished pet, staff at the rescue shelter are hoping that soon she'll have the opportunity to do the same. They're enlisting the public's help in finding a family for her, as that's what she needs above else to fill the hole left behind by Scooby.

"Marshy is a special girl with a special story, she is deaf. When we rescued her, she was very sick with parvo and left on a chain abandoned by her owners," the group wrote. "She is truly a survivor but as you can see she is really needing love. Together we can find Marshmallow the perfect home, she is such a sweetheart."

SIGN NOW! BAN THE SALE OF CRUEL ‘LIVE ANIMAL’ KEYCHAINS

>>> Sign the petition now to tell China to ban live animal keychains! <<< Turtles, fish and lizards are being stuffed and sealed into plastic bags and sold on the streets as keychains in China. The cost of these animals lives? About $1.50. Swimming in a small pool of colored water, the animals only last until the oxygen is used up. Then, they can theoretically be released and kept as pets – although it’s doubtful that the same people who think an animal makes a nifty trinket have the slightest clue about how to properly care for them. In an interview with CNN, David Neale, animal welfare director of Animals Asia said, “Lack of food and diminishing oxygen concentrations within both the water and the small amount of air in these plastic pouches will cause the animals to die in a relatively short period of time after the pouches are sealed.” 😠So Cruel😠 ACTUAL REAL LIVE ANIMALS are being sealed into tiny plastic pouches and sold as f**king ke...

Tesco: Ditch palm oil in your own-brand products!

>>>SIGN PETITION HERE<<< My name is Oscar, I’m 15 and I want to do everything I can to protect our environment .  I was really upset and angry when I found out about the huge deforestation that is involved in the palm oil industry,  and that’s why I’m calling on Tesco to ditch palm oil from their own-brand products. Iceland has already banned palm oil from their own brand products, so we know that this is possible for Tesco too. As the largest supermarket in the UK (and using over 40,000 tonnes of palm oil every year!), Tesco has an opportunity to set an example to other supermarkets and food producers that  destroying swathes of forests for palm oil is not acceptable. I run a online cause called ‘Justice4Earth’ ( @justice4earth  on Instagram and  @justice4earth  on Twitter) where I raise awareness about environmental issues. I found out that palm oil is literally everywhere: from shampoos, toothpastes and detergen...

The cat’s reaction is heartbreaking after their dog died of cancer 2 weeks ago

The strong bond between cats and dogs amaze me more and more each day, they are best friends, it’s not true that there is enmity between them, it’s completely wrong, and this story proved it. This dog is living with the cat in the same home, sadly, the dog was very sick, so his owner took him to the vet. The vet diagnosed the dog with cancer, from this moment, the countdown of his living days had just started. Charlie the dog is very loved, from the first day that Scout the kitty had come home, the bond started instantly, she couldn’t sleep unless she nestled up to Charlie. They became very close friends, Scout the cat wanted to be around him all the time, play all the time, and have unlimited fun, they were best buddies. And as for Charlie, he was very gentle with his new friend, he tried to make her happy and let her do anything she wants. Wherever Charlie went, she was right away with him, following him wherever he went to, or wherever he was going, Scout the cat was his shadow....
