Blind Pit Tied To Bench Didn’t Know Where She Was Or Reason She Was Left There

No one deserves to be left behind. When we adopt a dog, the deal is, it’s forever. There is no exception.

For one dog, however, her callous owner didn’t seem to care. Polly the Pit Bull was left alone in a Santa Barbara park, strapped to one of the benches.

Thankfully she wasn’t there for long. All the local parks are patrolled several times throughout the day by animal services.

Polly was found by an animal control officer who was completely baffled as to why someone would do such a thing.

The officer freed Polly and put her into her vehicle. That’s when she realized just how heartless her owner must have been. Polly was completely blind.

Can you imagine how scared she was?

Polly had no idea where she was… and she couldn’t even see her owner walk away. She must’ve thought her owner was coming back for her! 

The most heartbreaking of all was that Polly, when released from her leash latched to the bench, was too afraid to move.

The animal control officer finally coaxed Polly away from the bench and brought her in for a thorough medical exam. They realized she had recently given birth.

Her cruel owner used her for breeding, to sell her puppies, then dumped her when she was no longer needed.

Once back at the city pound, Jennifer Wales from a rescue organization heard about Polly. The 25-year animal rescue veteran went to the pound to pick Polly up.

While she had a lot of experience with all types of dogs, she still had to gain Polly’s trust.

Wales had a great idea. She took Polly out for a cheeseburger. The dog not only enjoyed her delicious meal, she realized her new foster mom was one of the good ones.

Wales said that Polly had her first good night’s sleep that first night with her. Without the loud barking and scary smells, Polly felt safe.

Polly’s new foster mom wanted to have her health extensively checked before deciding what type of home she should go to. Her tests came back and the news wasn’t good. She had issues with her heart.

More testing had to be done to see if surgery could help her but the rescue group needed to raise money for those specialized tests. With a lot of hard work and many kind donations, they did.

The next set of tests came back and the news was even worse. Her condition wasn’t operable. The vet said just to keep her happy and that is exactly what Wales did.

The vet couldn’t predict how long she had but Polly felt okay and what mattered most was she was now with a loving foster mom.

Polly would live each day to the fullest, being loved and spoiled. The vet confirmed that she likely bred puppies for many years and that is what also led to her poor health.

A backyard breeder had used her up and then left her behind like trash — but now, Polly’s life was going to be celebrated.

As odd as it may sound, Polly being left behind on that bench was the best thing for her. Now she can live happily with tons of love around her!

Lucky Elderly Man Is Greeted Every Day By A “Friend” Who Crawls Out Of The Ice:

We’ve all seen some unique and unlikely friendships over the years, but this one here may take the cake!

One day, a starving otter appeared at an elderly man’s door wanting some food. Ever since, Seppo Laamanen, 65, and Iivari the otter have been inseparable best friends.

Source: StoryTrender/YouTube

It all started when Seppo fed worms and fish to the small and malnourished otter who was clearly looking for food.

After that, the friendly animal repaid the kindness by visiting the man at his home in Punkaharju in easter Finland. This was the start of something special.

There’s no way Seppo could’ve ever imagined it’d all lead to this. This adorably unique friendship is one for the ages, and it’s something you have to see to believe.

There’s nothing like the bond between two friends regardless of the species! 🙂

10 Of The “Most Loyal” Dog Breeds On The Planet

Giving love and support to humans is something that some dogs do better than others.

While many dogs love everyone they meet and are willing to take treats or belly rubs from anyone, the pups we found are just the opposite.

These 10 dogs are some of the most loyal breeds on the planet. They are rock steady in their loyalty to their owner no matter what.

1) Akita

When the American Kennel Club (AKC) lists loyalty to describe the temperament of the Akita, you know they mean business. The beautiful double-coated working dog of Japanese ancestry is considered hardwired in protecting those she loves. They should be socialized with other dogs and people from the time they are puppies. Their silly, fun, but dignified personalities round out the loyal Akita.

2) Boxer

This working dog is smart, full of energy, and oh so loyal to their family. They get along great with kids and have an innate instinct to protect their pack. He’s a watchdog with a heart of gold who oozes dedication to his owner.

3) Skye Terrier

Known as the “small dog with the big ears,” this adorable breed hails from the Scottish Isle of Skye, hence the name. Whether you live in the city or the country, this small dog with a big personality is steadfast in snuggling, playtime, and remaining loyal to his owners.

4) Beagle

This merry hound is friendly, curious and incredibly loyal. While he doesn’t mind the occasional couch potato time, this spunky pooch is energetic and merry. A fun fact about this hound: the breed standard is for 13 inches and under and another in the 13-15 inch category. No matter how you size him, these adorable dogs just want to cling to you.

5) Shar-Pei

This wrinkly non-sporting breed is standoffish to strangers but very loyal to his owner. His ancient Chinese roots are part of the charm of the Shar-Pei. Regal, strong, and smart, if you want a BFF for life, this loose-skinned pooch may be the right choice for you.
