We’ve all heard or seen stories about dogs on their way to the Rainbow Bridge. Each time they touch our hearts, it is in a different way. This is the story of Sophiane and Hippo.
Even though this homeless dog was too sick to save, Sophiane Nacer still wanted to give him the best ‘end of days’ she could. She resolved that Hippo, an old stray with tumors, would only sense love when he left this world.
“Even if it was just for a day,” Sophiane, the 19-year-old founder of Cayleb’s Kindred Senior Dog Rescue, told TODAY, Hippo would have the happiest last day of his life.
After a five-day wait, Sophiane adopted Hippo and took him home from the shelter. The skin on the unfortunate dog was itchy to touch. Sophiane was unsure whether Hippo could feel anything because he was in so much pain.
All her doubts evaporated as she saw his tail wag. The ailing dog was still optimistic. He FOUGHT to feel love and happiness before he left this world.
So Sophiane took Hippo to Starbucks and bought him a Puppuccino, a hidden menu item that dogs like that is basically a cup filled with delicious whipped cream.
The next day, Hippo was still upbeat, so Sophiane took him to a dog park for some playtime. He loved every minute of it! But then he remembered Sophiane.
The old dog, who was suffering yet hopeful, had a message for his new best friend… He was ready to depart. He was ecstatic to be able to spend time with Sophiane, but he was tired and in pain, and it was time to say goodbye.
Sophiane had a vet euthanasia specialist visit her home after the dog park. The vet specialist had prepared a stuffed roasted chicken for him. He was able to have his final meal with Sophiane as peacefully as possible before falling into a painless permanent sleep.
While this is a heartbreaking story in many ways, it is also quite inspiring. A dying dog who would otherwise have known only suffering was able to spend the rest of his little life feeling loved and wanted.
May all dogs leave this world feeling as loved as this one! Rest in peace, Hippo. You were a fantastic young man!

Loyal dog sacrificed his own life to save owners from home intruder
There is no denying our dogs’ love and dedication to their owners, and even if the current tale is tragic, this loving dog gave his life to save his family!

NtdNews reports that Achy was shocked to learn that his dog had intentionally been poisoned:
Achy wrote on her Facebook page, “Our wonderful dog continued barking, so they didn’t rob us. When we left the house in the morning, we only recently learned about it. We discovered that the crooks had poisoned our dog.”
The family claimed that they were asleep when a gang of criminals approached and prepared to rob them of their possessions, according to the unfortunate facts discovered.
No one looked because they thought their dog had found the cat despite their dog’s frantic barking.
The dog stopped barking all of a sudden, and the following morning it was found near death, lying in its own vomit with a taste of froth, indicating it was lethal…
We had planned to take him to the vet, but since we live in Papua, the doctor usually only treats livestock, The vet clinic was also closed because it was a Sunday “Achy composed.
The family forced their dog to drink milk, oil, and coconut milk in an effort to help him, but he became too weak and died as a result.
While Achy mourned the loss of his brave dog who gave his life to save his family, he also recorded his pet’s last moments on camera in order to remember him and to caution others to pay attention when their pets bark.

Touching Moment: Man saves beagle from euthanasia at shelter, thanks him with a hug
A sick dog is ecstatic to have new hope for the future.
Despite having heartworm disease, which is completely treatable and not serious, Gregory the Beagle was on the verge of being put to death at the Franklin County Animal Shelter. Thankfully, Joe Kirk heard about his situation and made it just in time to save him. He couldn’t help feeling sorry for the dog.
Every pet has the right to the care they need, as well as a permanent home where they are loved and cherished for who they are. Like people, pets get sick from time to time. As long as the illness is treatable, it is preferable to try; nobody wants to be abandoned or put to death due to an illness. Being ill should never be a justification for abandoning or euthanizing dogs.
In Findlay, Ohio, Joe and his wife Schenley established the nonprofit organization Hound Rescue and Sanctuary. They exert every effort to help the dogs and prevent their abandonment. They make sure that every dog is in top condition and that those who have had a hard time finding homes are adopted. To prevent them from being put to death is the most crucial thing for their group.
The beagle dog who saved him from being put to death at a shelter hugs his savior. He thanks him for keeping him from being put to death.
Gregory is a very grateful Beagle, according to the couple. In fact, he was aware of his safety the moment they saved him. He is also receiving medical attention right now despite having a parasite infection, so he is in excellent hands. They are prepared to look after him, to show him their love, and to provide him a promising future.
Currently, 30 dogs are housed and cared for at the Hound Rescue and Sanctuary. Many of these dogs are available for adoption, and volunteers work hard to provide them with the best possible care. This beagle was at the sanctuary where, after being put up for adoption, he had drawn a lot of interest.
The beagle quickly found a lifelong home and was adopted. He hugged Joe to show his appreciation for sparing him from being put to death in the beautiful images, and this attracted a lot of attention. People who have seen these pictures on the internet have remarked on the dog’s big heart.
Gregory now possesses a stunning family who adore him and are anxious to provide for him in life. He can now take pleasure in the conveniences of home while receiving heartworm treatment. He also shares a home with another Beagle sibling, and the two of them are already close.
Gregory’s uniqueness makes Joe and his wife delighted that they were able to save him, and there is no greater feeling than saving the life of an animal who is not at fault for being rejected. To them, every life is significant. They firmly believe that even though they were unable to save everyone, they were able to save at least one more life, which made a big difference.
This adorable Beagle never stops giving everyone hugs and kisses because she is so happy to be home. He is a very grateful dog, and his family is ecstatic to have him. Gregory won’t ever have to endure being abandoned and on the edge of euthanasia since we are sure that they will have a beautiful life together.
