Dogs are family

Ed Krpuczak is an 88-year-old World War II veteran who earned a Purple Heart and four Bronze Stars and recently moved to assisted living in Michigan, leaving behind his 14 year old rescue dog named Buddy. Buddy now needs a new home - can we help this war hero find a loving home for his best friend?

Buddy is a 14 year old rescue dog and has been living alone for the past few months after his mom passed away and his dad moved away to assisted living in Southgate, Michigan. He's now looking for a forever home to spend his remaining days.
Gary Krpuczak says that Buddy can't hear or see too well, but he still gets around and has been a faithful companion to his dad, a World War II veteran. "My father, who had a Purple Heart and four Bronze Stars, he fought with the 45th Infantry Division, U.S. Army," Gary said.
Gary has been caring for Buddy, since his father, Ed, had to move out. Unfortunately, Gary can't take Buddy home with him because his own dog is not dog-friendly. So Buddy has been staying at the family's home, but as the home will be going on the market soon, Gary is hoping to find Buddy a loving home.
Gary said that his 88-year-old dad misses Buddy and worries about him. Gary told Fox Detroit that his dad talks about Buddy all the time and "A few times he has mentioned that he wanted to come home and care for him, but health wise he's really not able to do that."
"Rather than have to have him put down, I'd like somebody out there that would be interested in trying to help him," Gary said. "To me, he's iconic. He belongs to a World War II hero, so-called Detroit's greatest generation, and there must be someone out there that would say, hey, you know what, we're going to take him and do what we can for him."
If you think you can help Buddy, contact Gary at (734) 285-4787 or gary.krupczak@comcast.net.

Sheba is a two year old black and white cookie who was found wandering the streets of Brooklyn on her own. She's a very friendly girl with an AVERAGE SAFER! She's a cute little thing with adorable markings and a beautiful face. Sheba has been friendly and cooperative during her stay; but, her charm and good looks has not been enough to keep her off the kill list. Please advocate for Sheba tonight.

•✽•✽• "Pick me -- I'm a good girl. I'll be a wonderful companion." That's what I see in SHEBA's eyes. Please -- pick SHEBA now. She needs a hero and a home to go to before her time is up sometime early on Saturday. Sheba is about 2 years old, ACED her behavior eval, and is said by vols to be very friendly and gentle. She's also a cute little thing with adorable and unique markings and a beautiful face. Sheba has been friendly and cooperative during her stay at Brooklyn ACC, but her charm and good looks have not been enough to keep her off the kill list. I hope and pray that someone else sees what I see; a wonderful girl who has so much love to give and life yet to live. Sheba is available for adoption directly from BACC (online until 6am tomorrow!) or for fostering or adoption through New Hope rescues.. Please network Sheba far and wide, and click on her photo to find out how YOU could foster or adopt her, if you live in the Northeast US. Please hurry, Sheba's almost out of time! ~

Dog found SEALED SHUT alive in plastic bag.
>> http://hendrickboards.com/s/save-chamsky

*warning graphic photos*-This is a story about how a dog was found sealed shut in a plastic bag and left on a desk at the West Valley Animal Shelter. The pups name is Chamsky. He was brought in a SEALED plastic bag and left on the clerk’s counter. When the clerk opened it, thinking it was a delivery package, she saw what she thought was a dead dog. After all, he was BLUE , covered with blood and wounds and not moving! The staff at the shelter resuscitated him and Chamsky now needs our help. ( his abusers were caught and are being charged with animal cruelty )

... Help us save Chamsky. We have partnered with S.A.F.E. Animal Rescue to raise funds for his recovery. We have created the ADOPT DONT SHOP tee dedicated to riasing the donations needed for his care. WIth every tee purchased you can help give Chamsky the second chance at love he deserves.

It's time for a reality check. Not too long ago, pit bulls were the most hated, feared breed of dog. But as Kim Wolf explains in required reading for all advocates, rescuers and fans of the "breed" -- that is simply not true anymore: http://beyondbreed.com/keep-calm-and-stop-reacting/

Pit bull dogs are now among the most popular pets in America, with the Banfield Pet Hospital recording a 47% rise between 2000-2010. As Kim shows you, pit bulls are everywhere: primetime TV, celebrity families, positive mainstream news, family homes wherever you look..."Even the politicians have spoken: laws targeting pit bull dogs are fading fast, with fewer than 10% of the American population living in places that regulate pit bulls and even fewer — less than 4% — living in places that prohibit them."

Times are changing, and it's time for all of us to catch up. We'll leave you with one last quote from Kim, but to be truly enlightened, go read the eye-openin...g, graphic-filled article, entitled KEEP CALM & STOP REACTING (http://bit.ly/10acSF3):

"The dogs and the folks who love them — and there are many! — are begging us to catch up. They’re begging us to leave the past behind and operate in the present. To stop associating pit bulls with defeat, stigma, fear, and sadness. To focus on the most common challenges facing us, like lack of pet owner support and pet-friendly housing. To stop teaching the public to feel sorry for these dogs, as if “they” are some kind of project...And if we want to function in reality, we need to stop assuming people hate pit bulls and start offering support to all the families who have them."

"Pit bulls have crossed the threshold. Now it's time for us to cross it, too."See More
