A soft thumping sound could be heard from a nearby dumpster one evening, and a Good Samaritan set out to investigate.
He saw a sealed box inside and traced the sound to it. What he saw inside shocked him to the core.

The first image is a little hard to look at, we must admit. But keep in mind there’s a happy ending, and you’ll want to see just how far this pup has come.
An abused and neglected puppy left for dead. Literally treated like trash. The man immediately contacted Dallas Dog RRR for help, and volunteers were sent to the scene.
The puppy was in such critical condition she had to be taken to the ER.
They named the dog Sally. At the animal hospital, she was diagnosed with a high fever, dehydration, and chronic mange.
Sally was so weak and had open wounds that were still bleeding. Even her paws were swollen and painful.
But Sally somehow kept the right attitude through it all. Despite her terrible condition, she continued wagging her tail and never gave up.
It was clear they had a fighter on their hands! There was a long recovery ahead, and Sally would have to stay at the hospital for a few days.
A woman named Patti took Sally in to foster her knowing the dog would have to continue to visit the vet regularly for treatment.
The day her foster mom came to pick her up, Sally was so happy she covered Patti’s face with kisses! 🙂
Sally knew she was now in good hands, and it made all the difference in the world going forward. It would only be a matter of time before she fully recovered from her horrible past.
Sally slowly but steadily made progress at her foster home. Patti did an amazing job of providing the pup with the love and care she needed, and it was clearly paying off in a big way.
Just a few months later, Sally is now fully recovered and mange-free! If it weren’t for the Good Samaritan, Dallas Dog RRR, and her foster mom, we don’t even want to think about how it would’ve ended for the sweet dog.
But here she is, alive and well! Sally is living the life she was always meant to live. Doesn’t she look amazing now? 🙂
And Sally’s last wish has finally come true — she’s been adopted into a loving forever home where she’ll live happily ever after!

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.

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.

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.
