Within the devastation in the aftermath of the Oklahoma tornadoes, a woman finds her lost dog, buried under the pieces of her leveled home.
It’s a great reunion caught on video, but the TV crew could have been a bit more helpful.

We need serious oversight in cases like this.
In the case of the following video, we find horses being abused to make them walk with a high step with their front legs, in Tennessee walking horse shows. I don’t get it.
Once again, the Humane Society of the United States led the charge to save these horses. The practice of applying chemicals to the lower legs of these horses is called “soring.” Anyone caught doing this should be in prison as soon as possible.

The Humane Society of the US is documenting the suffering that is going on at the hands of those slaughtering baby seals on the Canadian sea ice.

MyFoxLA reports a pit bull was recently hit by car in Los Angeles and was left suffering on the side of the road for hours, while people walked by without even calling for help. But three LAPD police officers spotted him and saved his life.
He was rushed to an emergency facility, where a microchip was found that allowed them to locate Philly’s guardian. But they could not afford the $10,000 medical bill that covers the repair of his broken leg.

KTTV reported the dogs previous guardian was quoted as saying, “We can’t afford it. Put him down. We don’t want him.” I can understand how $10,000 is too much for some people to afford, but the “Put him down; we don’t want him” part is sad.
Three of the police officers have adopted Philly.
Billy, the little Chihuahua rescued from a puppy mill by the Humane Society of the US, passed away over the holidays. One of the members of the rescue team that saved Billy, Adam Parascandola, adopted him.
Parascandola appears in this video honoring the little dog.
The Humane Society of the US has released a video reviewing a series of victories for animals in 2012.
Let’s hope we see a monumental increase in success stories in 2013.
Good news for a change. I need to be able to post more information such as this.
Defenders of Wildlife offers a number of success stories of 2012. Let’s hope 2013 is even better, for we have much work to do.
