Think back to this morning and how despite your alarm clock’s echoing wails, you could simply spend the rest of eternity cuddled up in you favorite pjs. Our beds are really just comfortable, safe havens from all that’s wrong in the world. Now imagine that this was your first time waking up in a bed […]
When we bring dogs into our lives, we know that things will never be the same. Caring for a pet is a huge responsibility, but they repay all that hard work tenfold with their love and devotion. That’s why we buy them the best food on the market, take them to get all their shots, […]
I love my job. I mean, who wouldn’t? I get to write about puppies, kittens, inspiring stories, travel destinations…you name it! But that doesn’t mean I don’t have serious job-envy of others. No, I’m not talking about people who earn millions or travel the world for a living (though that is up there)…instead, I am […]
I’ve always been a fan of prison programs that help inmates become better people instead of just locking them up.

There’s something uniquely horrifying about animal abuse, and what’s even worse is when people neglect animals to the point where they can no longer tolerate the fruits of their own abusive labor. That’s what happened to a poor little pup named Nik Nak. After letting him fall victim to severe neglect, Nik Nak’s old owners […]
Dogs living in South Korea have every reason to live in fear. Not only is the dog meat trade legal, but it’s quite common. It’s something that many people in the country fight to criminalize and prevent each day. The organizations PAWsitive Channel, Aniband, and Doggie Protective Services work tirelessly to help these animals in […]
There’s a reason that puppies aren’t fully weaned from their mother until they’re between seven and eight weeks old. In addition to the emotional support, they need mom’s nutritious milk and warmth to help them survive. Unfortunately though, stray dogs and orphaned pups often find themselves without a mom, making their odds of survival incredibly […]
It’s not every day that you come across a story that is this inspiring. A few months ago, we posted an article about a little boy in the Philippines named Ken who began taking walks every day. His father followed him out of curiosity and discovered that his loving son was looking after three very sick puppies that […]
