You Won't Believe Where This Guy Drove His Car to Rescue a Dog (Video)

If you saw a dog stuck in the middle of a canal, what would you do? Climbing down to get the dog might be one way to go, but how would you climb back up the steep walls while holding the pooch? Quite the conundrum. To this kind individual, however, the answer was simple: drive your car into the canal!

We’re not joking. This person saw the dog in need, jumped in their jeep and set out to save the day. We can’t imagine how the car got into the waterway … but we have to hand it to them, the drive-by rescue is pretty impressive. How cool would it be if every animal rescue involved a bright orange jeep that would magically appear and swoop the animal in need off to a better life? That would make for a great animal-rescue hero movie.

We just love seeing people going to extreme lengths to help out our fellow sentient beings. Our hats go off to you Orange Jeep Man (okay, maybe for the movie he’ll get a better name).

Take a look at the video below:

When This Man's Girlfriend Gave Him An Ultimatum, He Chose The Dog

From dividing up belongings to moving out of a shared apartment, breakups can be tough. But what do you do when you have a furry friend to further complicate matters?

For Scott Ladauti, the decision was easy. When it came to choosing between salvaging his relationship and keeping his dog, he didn’t hesitate.

"When [my girlfriend] gave the ultimatum, it really wasn’t a question," he told HuffPost Live host Nancy Redd. "I lived in my car for, like, four days with my dog before my parents would let us come back to their house. But I would have been homeless with her forever."

Discovery Special to Air Man Eaten Alive by Anaconda

 (WXIA) -- The story started making the rounds on the Internet late Tuesday, but many people were skeptical. A new promo released by Discovery on Wednesday seemed to erase all doubt.

The network will present a special, "Eaten Alive," on December 7, featuring naturalist and filmmaker Paul Rosolie wearing what the network calls a "custom-built snake-proof suit" and allowing himself to be eaten by an anaconda.

From an Anteater on a Leash to a Hippo that Gets Massages, Here Are the Weirdest Pets from Around the World

Lions and tigers and bears – oh my! There have always been people who have pushed the pet envelope. Elvis had a kangaroo. George Clooney kept company with a not-so-small potbelly pig. Tippi Hendren and her daughter, Melanie Griffith, owned a pet lion. There are plenty of people who think owning a cat or dog is just too boring. Instead, they bring home exotic, wild, or large game animals. Is it completely crazy or kinda cool? Maybe a little of both. You be the judge. Here are the weirdest pets from around the world.

19 Dog-Friendly Stores Where You Can Shop With Your Pup

The other day I was walking my dog when I walked past the most gorgeous coat in the window of Anthropologie. It was pouring rain. Of course, I didn’t want to tie up my pup… but then, a retail miracle occurred! It turns out that Anthropologie is a dog-friendly store! Which got me thinking, what other stores also welcome canine shoppers? So here it is: the ultimate list of national stores that are dog friendly! Petco and Petsmart were left off in favor of stores with slightly more obscure dog policies (but don’t worry! you can still bring your dog into them!)

*Note: Many stores leave it up to the manager to decide whether their store allows dogs or not, not all of these stores will allow dogs. The best way to ensure you can bring your pooch inside is to call ahead and find out the specific store’s policy.
