Dog ‘walks 200 miles to find woman who nursed her back to health after hit-and-run accident’
Shavi was left to die by the side of the road after the crash, in southern Russia’s Rostov Oblast region last winter.
She had been living on the streets as a stray when the driver hit her, and then just drove away, Russian media reported.
He left Shavi to die in agony with two broken legs by the side of the road, where she was shivering and freezing.
But luckily, two passersby saw the animal and took her to the vet, before appealing online for someone who could care for her as she recovered.

Marnie the dog: from stray to star – now raising money for senior pups like her
the guardian
Before Marnie found herself in the arms of Tina Fey and Taylor Swift, she was a partially blind stray living on the streets. Now her internet fame is helping others
Marnie the dog – a 13-year-old Shih Tzu known for her ever-present tongue and head tilt – has risen from a stray to a star. Now, the Instagram celebrity is using her fame to advocate for senior pups like her.
Shirley Braha, who adopted Marnie three years ago, is using her dog’s growing popularity to shed light on the adoption of senior dogs. She’s created a fund – Marnie’s Old Pals – to help senior dogs in shelters receive necessary veterinary care.
To celebrate Marnie’s 13th birthday and the launch of her new book, Braha’s group held its first fundraiser on Monday night in New York, and asked those who attended to donate $5 to the fund.
I can't make the meeting, sorry! 💤

April 29, 2014
There
have been many stories of survival come out of the April 27 tornadoes
that devastated many communities in Arkansas. Towns like Vilonia and
Mayflower are now left to pick up the pieces as neighborhoods were left
shattered, causing a loss of both human and pet lives.
Out of this tragedy there are a few miracles taking place with the pets misplaced. One such story is that of a dog found wandering Tuesday in Vilonia. As it turns out, this old guy is 15 years old.
Now under the care of Fuzzy Hearts Rescue, he's in a foster home due to his owner's losing their home. The house was leveled, and the family had nowhere to go.
Even though this sweet senior had difficulty walking with bad hips, plus being stressed out from the trauma, his family had feared he was killed by debris. They're so relieved he's safe, and being cared for until they can find a place where he can rejoin them.

fatally shot a 14-month-old dog on Monday morning after being called
out to investigate a call about two suspicious men who were trespassing.

April 24, 2014
Those of us in the animal world are well aware of the atrocities of puppy mills.
The filthy conditions, lack of clean water, food, and veterinary care, the loneliness and neglect the animals suffer. Which is why it's wonderful to hear of puppy mill dogs who are rescued and get to spend the rest of their lives in a loving home.
Two such survivors, Harley, 13, and Teddy, 8, are doing more than enjoying their freedom, however. On April 26, they're leaving for a trip (not their first) with National Mill Dog Rescue (NMDR) to save other puppy mill dogs. This Midwest mission, dubbed 'Harley to the Rescue,' has a goal of saving more than 50 dogs.
'Harley to the Rescue' started as a campaign to raise $2,500 to fund one rescue of 25-30 dogs. As of today, these brave Chihuhuas have raised over $150,000 and have rescued 265 dogs from mills. Watch video (Here).

Owner surrenders senior dog because too much work to fix the fence
April 6, 2014
All
her life, Lola, an extremely friendly black Labrador retriever mix
lived in one home; the only home she ever knew. Last Saturday,
seven-year-old Lola was surrendered to the high kill San Bernardino
County Animal Shelter because the dog's owner just didn't feel like
fixing the fence where Lola played.
Now Lola cries in her kennel; she is just so lonely and misses her family. Sadly, they are never coming back for her.
Late last week Lola started coughing. Due to the limited funding at the shelter, upper respiratory infections often shorten the adoption alternatives. A volunteer is extremely worried about this sweet dog:

"Lola is getting sick, her sadness and disappointment put her immune system low and now she got sick. I am worried...she is older, fragile, and it will decrease her chances to be adopted. HELP!!!!!"
