One Tail At A Time is an amazing dog rescue center in Chicago. Shelter workers are used to seeing very neglected, unhealthy dogs in really bad shape, so when they first met friendly, middle aged pooch Porkchop they assumed he was fine. He wasn’t underweight or mangy and wasn’t scared of people. One of the shelter’s foster carers agreed to look after him, but when he was brought in to see the vet a few weeks later due to some issues with his urinary tract, the full misery and horror of...

While walking home from college in Lisbon, a group of students heard barking. They looked around, expecting to find a dog… but couldn’t find a single creature.
They were walking past a closed school playground, so they decided to investigate. When they did, they saw a dog’s head peeking out of the ground. He was crying out for help, stuck in a manhole cover opening barely big enough for his head.
Being the kind hearted teens that they were, the students helped the dog out.

Though we've seen a lot of dog portraits in our time these might just take the cake as the most creative ever. Ron Schmidt is the person behind the company Loose Leashes, an online shop where he sells funny prints of our furry friends in wonderfully witty scenarios. Dog person or not, you can't help but fall in love with these photos. As he told Dogster, “All the images represent the freedom that a dog would have without someone holding its leash. These are the things dogs would do if no one was around and they had absolute freedom.” Though his past experience is in fashion and celebrity photography, Schmidt found his true calling by accident. After branching out on his own to pursue commercial photography, he found his niche when, one day, he decided to design a creative Christmas card for his family, friends and clients. Featuring his yellow lab Indy, the card didn't just show her pose in a traditional way, he had her carry a tree on her back. "It was a fun, conceptual image that was a big hit with everyone who saw it. Since I love dogs and photography, this worked out really well.”

Just like photographer Traer Scott and her heartbreaking portraits of shelter dogs, artist Mark Barone is trying to bring some much needed attention to the neglected animals in shelters. After learning that 5,500 shelter dogs are killed every day in the United States, he decided to paint 5,500 portraits of actual shelter dogs with names and the date that they were killed. Now two years into the project, Barone has painted more than 3,500 portraits which, for any dog lover, are incredibly hard to look at.

I think we can all agree that’s all fancy talk to justify the $10/month price tag. The Game Show Network doesn’t even cost that much and it’s pretty much the best channel ever. Sorry doggies! Looks like you’re gonna have to stick with the Murder, She Wrote marathons. Sorry not sorry. I know how y’all feel about Angela Lansbury!
