Dogs are such incredible animals and so loyal to their loved ones. Just take a dog that showed the unbreakable bond with his owner. A woman in Turkey fell ill and had to be taken to the hospital. An ambulance arrived for her, but her dog was not allowed in the ambulance. But that wasn’t a problem for this dog.
Sometimes a pup needs the right playmate to come out of their shell. Samson, a service dog in training, just didn’t connect with other dogs. He took his work very seriously and didn’t take time to just play. But, all that changed one day when a kitten named Cleo was brought into his life.
After three long years, a sweet dog named Rocky was finally reunited with his owner, Eileen, all thanks to social media. After Rocky went missing in 2018 his parents searched tirelessly, but no one was ever able to find him and his owners began to lose hope.
Meet Gabriel, the puppy was who frightened and afraid of human touch when he was rescued. Unfortunately, he was born with a deformity that caused him to have difficulty walking. Unlike the other puppies in his foster home (who the rescuers thought were his siblings), he didn't want to play with anyone else.
Jeanie is a three-legged special needs therapy dog that has been trained to spread joy to children, veterans, the elderly, and special needs people as well. Her good nature and calm demeanor captivate everyone that comes into contact with her.
Dogs always have the ability to cheer us up, don't they? In the crazy time we are currently living in, healthcare and frontline workers have been working tirelessly each and everyday to help and serve people in their communities. This can be an extremely stressful and anxious experience, that can take a negative toll on their mental health.
