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...

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.

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.

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."

"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 ...
