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!
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...
It’s one of the most sorrowful sounds you’ll ever hear, but it’s also a sad reality check for anyone who thinks protected species are safe from illegal poaching. In a video released this in July, a baby rhino named Davi cries for his mother after she was shot and killed by poachers. Most rhinos spend at least three years with their mothers before weaning, the Dodo reports, but Davi’s childhood was cut short at just 8 months old. The baby rhino stood close by his mother’s lifeless body until rescuers arrived. They fitted her with earplugs and a blindfold to calm his anxiety on the way to The Rhino Orphanage in South Africa.

It was there that Davi spent the night crying. “His calls for mom echoed deeply and urgently throughout the night, but two carers have been with him every step of the way,” caretakers posted . “At least he is in good physical condition [and] has no injuries...
Much of the world sees dogs as their trusted companions, but in parts of Asia they suffer terribly as victims of the trade in dog meat for human consumption. In some Asian countries, dogs used for this industry are mostly stolen pets and they are sometimes tortured before being slaughtered. The dog meat trade is not only cruel, but is also linked to the spread of rabies and other diseases. HSI is working with local organizations in South Korea, China, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, and India to sensitize the public about the harmful dog meat trade that thrives in these countries. We actively shut down farms in South Korea, assist farmers as they transition to more humane livelihoods, support our local Chinese partners in intercepting dog meat traders’ trucks, fund the care of confiscated and rescued animals and lobby for better laws throughout Asia.
