Two-headed animals might seem like they only exist in myths and frightening folktales, but I’m here to burst your bubble. While rare, two-headed creatures certainly exist. They suffer from a condition called polycephaly — a term derived from Greek, meaning “multiple heads.” Take this two-headed albino Honduran milk snake, for example. Not only are polycephalic […]
For newborn tiger cubs in Siberia, there’s a tried and true method for helping them learn to socialize. It’s not by introducing them to humans or bringing in other cubs. Instead, it’s something far, far cuter — packs of German shepherds who live and play with them as they grow up. Watch for yourself and […]
One of the responsibilities of being a pet owner is making sure that all their medical records and registrations are up to date. This could be the difference between life and death if your pet were to get lost. For a small fee, you can microchip your pets so that rescuers and veterinarians can scan […]
Dogs find new ways to surprise us just about every day. If they’re not cleaning up around the house, maybe they’re just derping it up for a bit of love and attention.

UGH. Sure, all of […]
Pit bulls are just the worst, aren’t they? They’re dangerous, their jaws lock when they bite, and they are known to attack innocent kids. There’s only one problem. Not one bit of that is true.

If you’re a vertically challenged chub like me, you know how difficult simple tasks can be. Reaching tall shelves is an impossible feat, and fitting through narrow openings can be quite the challenge. It really wouldn’t be so bad, though, if I actually looked cute doing it.

Although people don’t often bat an eyelash when someone says, “I have an outdoor dog,” most dogs that live outside lead painful lives. While there are plenty of people out there who provide their outdoor […]
