8 Reasons Homeless People 'Deserve' to Have Dogs

I was walking in the West Village in Manhattan last weekend and saw a sweet interaction between a homeless woman and her dog. The woman readjusted her posture on some cardboard; and her dog reacted, looking at her with an expression that said: "I'm checking in. Is there something we should be aware of now?" The woman looked back at the dog like he'd just awakened her from a daydream, then pet him on the head and leaned back against the wall.

The exchange touched me because I'd seen my old dog wearing that exact expression; and because it was obvious the woman and her dog looked out for each other.

A Family Rescues What They Think is a Puppy…What Was It?…

When a family in Canada came across what they thought was an abandoned puppy, they brought it to an animal rescue center for help. The newborn "pup" was just one week old.

When wildlife officials tried to find a surrogate mother for the animal, they discovered that it wasn't actually a dog. At first, it was believed that it might be an otter or even a wolverine. Now, since the animal has had more time to develop, officials think it's a fox because of a white tip at the top of its tail, which is an early development pattern of young foxes.

Since the little animal has been fostered by humans, it won't be released into the wild anytime soon, but will instead be raised in a wildlife sanctuary.
