The Importance of THE PUPPY BOWL

     Every year, Animal Planet broadcasts their wonderful show called The Puppy Bowl, on Super Bowl Sunday.

     But did you know, that along with spotlighting some of most adorable puppies imaginable, they also have a one hundred percent adoption rate for all these pups! Yes, one hundred percent of those puppies get adopted! This year it was 90 adoptale puppies from 48 states! I find that just so heartwarming.

     They also find as many rescues from all over the country, including, this year, Florida and Texas, to get the pups from.
This year they even featured a puppy, named Mango, who was rescued off the streets of Mexico by
Compassion Without Borders, and taken to their other rescue in California.
                                                                         Mango

     They also featured a gorgeous puppy named Moonshine, who is totally deaf and sight impaired, along with another beauty named Sophie, who has three legs. What a wonderfully compassionate move on Animal Planets part. Bravo to them!

     This year, for the very first time, they had a Dog Bowl, spotlighting older, less likely to get adopted dogs. Another stroke of genius, that pulls at our heart stings, and gets older dogs adopted!
                                           


     Needless to say, ALL of the puppies and dogs were beautiful, and all of them unique in their own special way.                              

     So, move over Tom Brady, you don't even come CLOSE to being the cutest player on the field this year...not. even. close.  Just look at the handsome face of Mr. Wigglesworth! I can't even....

     In case you were wondering, TEAM FLUFF took home the Lombarky Trophy, for the second year in a row!
     But really, it's not about who wins and who loses in The Puppy Bowl. What's really important is that each and every dog finds their forever home and family.

     And that means, every little wiggly body wins! That's what's most important to us on Super Bowl Sunday.

                                London's favorite dog was this gorgeous Shiba Inu named Kitsy!

Smiling On The Outside

Are you an animal activist? Do you love and defend animals at all costs? Do you rescue, care for and educate others about animals in need? If yes, then you must be smiling on the outside, while your heart is breaking on the inside. Many people I know are doing this right now, and it's killing them! Almost four years ago, I read an incredibly sad post on Facebook. It was about a women, who I did not know. She had taken her own life that day. The whole reason it grabbed my attention was of course, why was she so unhappy that she did this? What could have been going on, that would make her want to end her life? I was compelled by this poor soul, and felt that her life did mean something, as everyone's life does. When I read through the comments, what I immediately noticed, was that she had been an animal activist. She had tried and had succeeded at helping many animals, at the expense of her own life. The comments revealed that when she no longer had the strength...
