Fire departments donned their winter water gear to assist the Marine Mammal Stranding Center in rescuing this 3 year old seal who had been trapped on the ice for several days near Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Wearing wet suits and using proper safety protocol, the team ventured onto the ice carefully. The goal was to keep the seal from using his sharp claws to dig in and scoot out farther onto the ice. ...

DOGS ENJOY SPRING AT SERBIAN SANCTUARY
Many of you have been so kind this week in making donations to sponsor the cost of food and care at Sasha Pecic's dog sanctuary in Serbia. You have our heartfelt thanks and we wanted to take a moment to share a video clip of the dogs enjoying their oasis. There is such freedom and comfort for the dogs here. It's truly a wonderous place and we're honored to sponsor food for the dogs all year long. http://animalrescuechase.com/donate/help-feed-care -for-400...

I WOULD FOLLOW YOU TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH....
You would think that the sound of 400 dogs would be louder, wilder, like a small tornado touching down. But there's a hush here as Sasha Pecic falls to the ground and the dogs surround him.
"Touch me. Throw the ball to me. Pass me a treat." You can almost hear the thoughts of the dogs.
As Sasha makes his way through the pack at this unique, free-run dog sanctuary in Serbia, he responds to the dogs personally. He calls each by name and tells t...

LIAM NEESON WANTS TO SAVE HORSE-DRAWN CARRIAGES IN NEW YORK
As often as we hear of celebrities advocating for the welfare of animals, Liam Neeson is taking a decidedly different stance as he tries to sway the campaign promise of New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio who intends to stop horse drawn carriage rides due to concerns about the welfare of the horses.
Allegations of suffering for the horses are long standing and animal welfare advocates have been asking for a ban on the carriage horses f...

HURT NO LIVING THING
by Christina Rossetti
Hurt no living thing;
Ladybird, nor butterfly,
Nor moth with dusty wing,
Nor cricket chirping cheerily,
Nor grasshopper so light of leap,
Nor dancing gnat, nor beetle fat,
Nor harmless worms that creep.

BEST DAY OF HER LIFE THANKS TO YOU!
Look at Charlotte. She just had the best day of her life with a soft bed, a delicious breakfast and a great walk in the park. Charlotte was recently rescued by a small group of heroes who circled around her at a notorious dog dumping ground in Houston, Texas. Charlotte is one of more than 100 dogs who are now safe thanks to a very special team of volunteers who fly under the banner of the Animal Safety League of Northeast Harris County.
About 18 months ago,...

VERY GOOD NEWS!!!
UKRAINE'S ZOO ANIMALS SAFE FOR NOW
Just a quick update for all of you who have been asking about the Kharvic Zoo in Ukraine. Last week it was reported that the animals here had only 3 days of food leftover after the political upheaval put a stop to funding.
The good news is, for now, the animals are safe. There was a huge outpouring of local support with people bringing bags and bags of food including cabbage, bread, carrots, beets, greens and more. The zoo staff were using...

5 Seconds for a Good Deed Tonight?
"When Cricket arrived at my home, she was afraid to bark for the first few weeks," Harmony Fund Founder Laura Simpson said. "The pound was a traumatizing place for her. I know she never had a bed or a walk or a chance to see the sun. If she could speak in terms we could understand, I have no doubt she'd ask you to take 5 seconds to sign a petition to outlaw some dark practices at the pound she was once rescued from."
IT'S A ONE-WAY DOOR: At this New Orleans...

FOUND BY AN EMPTY HUT, HE MUST LEARN TO TRUST....
Thought you'd all enjoy this rescue-in-progress in Romania. Here you see Norica Prigoana trying to gain the trust of a little one in need.
"This poor angel was probably abandoned by shepherds somewhere on a hill near a hut," Norica explains. "I do not know how he survived until now or what he has eaten until our foster family found this poor dog sitting next to a hut. He was in a very poor condition, very skinny with on leg hurt. He's thirsty ...

SEND US A POSTCARD FROM SCOTLAND!
Look at dear Ferdinand, a very gentle street dog who's care we helped sponsor in Croatia this winter after receiving an urgent plea from volunteer Suzana Demiraca who needed help with the cost of his urgent surgery. Ferdinand is now fully healed and is on his way to Scotland to live with his new mom. His new family has renamed him Brodie (very cute) and he is already enjoying the wonderful care he's receiving at his foster home.

Can We Feed the Dogs & Cats Here And Keep Them Safe
http://harmonyfund.org/donate/1305-dogs-cats- will-be-fed-with-your-help#dog-blue
We've been in touch with two major animal shelters in Ukraine and both are petrified and in a state of shock. The price of food has skyrocketed and because of the fear domestically, no one is donating funds or bringing in food for the dogs and cats. We ARE now that lifeline.
"Stop. Breath. and look around with opened eyes," says Marina Bolokhovets of FRIEND an...

SKYROCKETING PRICES & FEAR IN UKRAINE
Help With Dog Food
We've just sent financial support to FRIEND shelter in Dneproperovsk, Ukraine. The shelter's founder Marina reports that the situation is dire with dramatically escalating prices for food and daily LIMITS on how much they can withdraw from their bank account to buy the food. They are under tremendous stress and truly afraid.
Marina says she's often criticized for caring for the animals because humans are suffering too. "But the pain of ...

YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHAT THIS PELICAN SWALLOWED
First Hand Account & Photo by Laura Guttridge (Florida, U.S.A.)
"I recently assisted our local animal control officer Bruce Dangerfeild in the rescue of two injured pelicans at a Riverside boat ramp in Vero Beach Florida. When I first arrived I noticed the pelicans both had grotesque-looking bulges in their necks, and what appeared to be hooks poking out of their necks.
We tried to lure the injured pelicans away from the water with some bits of fo...
