Happy Ending

All responsible pet owners know not to leave his or her loved four-legged best friend inside a parked car during summer days. Cracking the windows does nothing to alleviate the rising temperature inside a car, yet more often than not, many pets are left inside hot cars and unfortunately die.

On June 15, 2014, heroic Police Officer Peter Lown from Wrentham, Mass., broke into a parked truck outside a Wrentham Mall parking lot to save the life of a dog that had been left locked inside the parked hot car.

On April 9, 2014, Brandi Glaske, founder of Saving Argo Dog Rescue, adopted a paralyzed Pit bull puppy left for dead on a Michigan road. Today, the dog whose previous owners abused her, leaving her paralyzed, is a happy, healthy dog with the hopes of walking on all fours one day again.

After Josie, a Border collie mix, managed to escape from a Culver City boarding facility almost two months ago, her human mom Lori Tritel has finally received the happy ending every family with a missing member, furry or not, hopes for.  A safe and healthy return home.

On June 17, 2014, Khaleesi, a ten-month old bull Mastiff from Barrington, Canada, chased a cat into a backyard near its home in Riverhead Road. In the yard, the cat hid in between the gaps of large boulders and the dog followed thinking she too could fit. The canine, a few dozen times larger than the cat wedge herself in between the gaps and became trapped.

Mary Ferguson, the pet owner, placed a call to local firefighters as soon as she caught up to her pet and found her confined in between the large rocks.

According to FOX40 News in Sacramento, California, a Golden retriever that had been missing for 20 months in the Tahoe National Forest area had been found alive, and has been reunited with her family.

Every shelter dog dreams of finding his or her human, leaving the shelter and entering a loving forever home. For Bolt, a homeless Staffordshire Bull Terrier from Drumoak, Aberdeenshire, the dream came true just after spending 550 days living in a Scottish SPCA Rescue center.

Nikki and Martin Shaw are Bolt’s newest forever parents. They met him at the shelter and instantly fell in love with him.

Duffy is a dog with diabetes, and like many others with this disease, had trouble with his eyesight.  Eventually, the disease left Duffy almost completely blind.  Duffy received eye surgery and can see again, and judging by the video, I’d have to say Duffy is one happy dog to be able to actually see his family again.
