Dog Hides Her Puppies In A Ditch For A Heartbreaking Reason

A North Carolina man made a Facebook page in July about giving away his dog and her puppies. The community worked together to make sure they all found homes. The man’s dog, Nana, is 4 years old. Nana has spent the last three years of her life chained up outside.

She has given birth three times. None of the puppies from the first two litters survived. After Nana had given birth to her latest litter of nine puppies, the man decided to give her and her puppies up.

As soon as people in the neighborhood saw the post they went into action.

The staff at Faithful Friends Animal Sanctuary (FFAS) heard about Nana and her puppies and stepped in to help too. FFAS contacted Mr. Bones & Co. Rescue for help.

Elli Frank, the founder of Mr. Bones & Co., said Nana and her puppies were living in terrible conditions FFAS will take care of the puppies until they are weaned, then they will be taken to New York, where Mr. Bones & Co. is located.

Nana was very protective of her babies. Since she had lost her two previous litters, she wanted to take no chance with her new babies.

The puppies were named Peter Pan, Tiger Lily, Tinkerbell, Wendy, Michael, John, Cubby, Jane, and Liza. All are characters from Peter Pan.

All the puppies and Nana are in foster homes. On the 24th of September Mr. Bones & Co. will hold their annual adoption event, Rescue the Runway, so people willing to adopt her babies can do so!

“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...

Dead Sea Turtle Washes Ashore With Horrifying Wake-Up Call For All Humans

Smokey the Bear told us we were responsible for preventing forest fires. Crime dog McGruff helped us take a bite out of crime. Woodsy the Owl told us to “Give a hoot, don’t pollute.” It’s that last one humans seem to have a big problem with. Where a wizened old owl’s advice has fallen short, however, the tragic image of a dead Kemps Ridley sea turtle with a beach chair stuck to its back may prove more compelling. An eye-opening illustration of the damage human pollution has done to our oceans, images of this tangled turtle have been sweeping across the internet, first posted by Fort Morgan Share the Beach , a local chapter of the Alabama sea turtle protection nonprofit Share the Beach. The story these pictures tell is a dark one which, wildlife advocate or not, is hard to ignore. Source: Facebook/Fort Morgan Share The Beach The turtle was dead when it washed up onto the shore. “There was a heavy string around the chair that wrapped around the turtle’s neck,”...
