A boy hugs stray dogs
We don’t recommend any boy hug stray dogs, but for one brave and caring boy, the act was exactly what the dogs needed. On a seemingly average day, Ibrahim’s heartwarming act of kindness caught the eye of a bystander. He stopped in his tracks when he saw two stray dogs huddled on the street corner, and without hesitation embraced them with tenderness. The onlooker even took a video of the interaction. Ibrahim showed that kindness will never be forgotten – or wasted!
Safety before kindness
No matter how kind Ibrahim was, it is necessary to maintain a safe distance from stray dogs. Unpredictable behaviors can lead to dangerous outcomes when interacting with stray animals.
What should I do if I see a stray dog?
Seeing a stray pup can be an overwhelming experience, but it’s important to remain calm and know the best way forward. If you’re able, try to find them some food or water. If they seem comfortable with your presence, consider taking them to a no-kill animal shelter. No-kill animal shelters are dedicated havens for animals in need. These benevolent organizations provide care, compassion, and support to all kinds of creatures that might otherwise face an uncertain future. By offering the safety of a forever home without euthanizing any animals, they help ensure that every pet gets a second chance at life!
Here’s how you can help
In the US alone, there are 1.3 million stray dogs. Every pup deserves a loving home, and you can help make that happen! By volunteering at animal shelters or donating supplies to organizations dedicated to helping stray dogs, your contribution could give these pups the chance of finding their forever friend.
80% of Dogs Develop Arthritis or Joint Pain by 7 Years old – Here’s How to Protect Them
Most of us train our dogs when they are puppies to jump up on furniture. We think it’s harmless (and easier than always lifting them), but for dogs, couches and beds are very high compared to the size of their bodies.
Every time they jump it compresses their back and applies enormous force to their joints.
It’s no wonder that an incredible 80% of dogs experience arthritis or joint pain by only 7 years old.
Luckily, there is a vet-recommended solution.
It’s the PawRamp by Alpha Paw. An adjustable ramp that allows dogs to safely get on and off couches and beds. PawRamp makes joining you in bed or on the couch effortless and fun.
