WHY PUT STONES IN YOUR BIRD BATH?
By Crystal Carvotta-Brown of MassCats
"I have a hanging bird feeder and bird bath in my back yard. This morning a little bird was flapping his wings frantically in the bird bath. At first I thought he was just cleaning his feathers but then I realized that he was in distress trying to get out."
"I walked over to him and he didn’t even try to fly away so then I thought he was injured. I used a large stick for him to hop on to which he did but then proceede...

WOMAN WEARS BLINDFOLD FOR 10 DAYS TO TAME DOBERMAN
- by Marianne Willemse of Love Animal House in Thailand
Bongo had a bad start in life, as most Dobermans do who are bought in anticipation of becoming fierce guard dogs. They are just like all dogs, in need of affection. When he disappointed his owner because he was too nice to the neighbors, he was beaten repeatedly, in the hope that he would serve his purpose and become mean towards intruders on the owner’s property.
At first he took the b...

VETERAN SHIELDS CAR-STRUCK DOG WITH HIS OWN BODY
(Dog is Alive & Recovering)
Iraq war veteran Aaron Schneider crossed three lanes of highway traffic to shield the body of a beagle who had been struck by a car in Lee’s Summit, Missouri.
Because the dog was in pain and defensive, it took Aaron a full three house, in the rain, to gain sufficient trust to lift the beagle into a friend's pickup truck.
