Two Angry Dogs Approach A Police Officer. What He Does Next? UNBELIEVABLE!

No animal control officer or police officer likes to get the call that vicious dogs are running around in a residential neighborhood. Officer David Gomez has heard that before – according to him at least a hundred times he gets the call from people saying the dogs are vicious, just vicious.

But when he arrives, he calls to the dogs and they are quite friendly and run right up to him with tails wagging! So over a year ago, when he got that same type of call, he didn’t expect anything different. Call the dogs and they will be friendly – take them home, done. But the two dogs he met one night in Meridian, Idaho were far from friendly.


When he called, they did come, but they didn’t greet him with happiness at all. They were foaming at the mouth and barking – these dogs WERE vicious!

Office Gomez admitted they were scary. One of the dogs bit into his baton as the two circled around him. Gomez used his baton and pepper spray to keep the angry dogs distracted while he waited for animal control.

Gomez talked to the dogs and warned neighbors to stay inside. Then inspiration hit – why not see if the dogs want to go for a ride in the car – brilliant!

The dogs weren’t sure at first, but eventually, they both jumped in! The dogs were returned to their owners and the owners also got a citation for “vicious dogs at large.”

In Idaho, that means going to court! “How do you like me now!” I like you just fine! Well done Officer Gomez, well done!

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the  Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

Stop holding the (2018) Yulin dog meat & lychee festival in Yulin, (Guangxi) China.

This "festival" is an event that starts on June 21st of every year during the summer solstice and it lasts for 10 long horrifying days in which 10,000–15,000 dogs (as well as cats) are tortured and then consumed. However, it is estimated 25 million dogs are stolen, sold, bought, and eaten every year with the illegal dog and cat meat trade. A larger percentage of these dogs consist of pets stolen right from their loving families. The rest of the dogs are captured strays from the streets and some raised in dog farms. After these animals are stolen, bought, or captured they are then transported for days without any food or water, crammed in tiny cages together so tightly that they are unable to even move. At the yulin festival, throughout those days, these animals will be hung, burned, skinned, boiled, torched, dismembered, electrocuted and beaten...ALIVE..out in the streets for public view. But If that isn't bad enough, they intentionally torture these animals in f...

Protect Our Waters: Say No To Plastic Waste!

Plastic garbage. It’s something we all see everyday. Don’t be fooled to think that these plastics are merely an eyesore.  We’ve become so accustomed to using plastic utensils, straws, water bottles and bags that it’s easy to forget the impact this has on our environment and climate. My name is Tyler and I’m in my fourth year of university in Canada, where I’m earning a degree in Environmental Studies. I'm also an environmental activist.  Even for someone like me, it’s hard to avoid using plastic at places like fast food restaurant, and that needs to change.   I’ve started this movement to highlight calls to action happening around the world, and to grow a community of everyday citizens pressing governments and companies to get serious about cleaning up our rivers, lakes and oceans . When we work together, and keep the pressure on, we really can make an impact. I know this firsthand, after collaborating with activists across Canada to successfully urge th...
