Dairy cows are born into a tough life.

First, their newborn calves are snatched away from them so that their milk can be exclusively harvested for dairy products.

As if that isn’t cruel enough, the cows are disposed off to the slaughterhouse the moment they stop producing milk.

The cow in this video is Emma, who comes to the rude realization that her owners don’t want her anymore.

She is set to be transported to the slaughterhouse, and Emma knows that it is the terrible place where no cow comes back from.

Emma feels so wronged and helpless that she starts crying at her sad fate.

As huge tears roll down Emma’s face, the rescuers of Kuhrettung Rhein-Berg Sanctuary pity her and save her from being slaughtered.

In this video, we see the moment when Emma is set free in the sanctuary’s luscious green field.

At first she is hesitant, but soon the other cows comfort her and she realizes that she is safe!

Emma can now happily live out the rest of her days with her new friends. This video shows us the unfair reality that cows live in.

They are living, breathing creatures with feelings, but are always exploited for human comforts.

We hope more kind souls like Emma get another chance at life.

10 Of The “Most Loyal” Dog Breeds On The Planet
Giving love and support to humans is something that some dogs do better than others.

While many dogs love everyone they meet and are willing to take treats or belly rubs from anyone, the pups we found are just the opposite.

These 10 dogs are some of the most loyal breeds on the planet. They are rock steady in their loyalty to their owner no matter what.

1) Akita

When the American Kennel Club (AKC) lists loyalty to describe the temperament of the Akita, you know they mean business. The beautiful double-coated working dog of Japanese ancestry is considered hardwired in protecting those she loves. They should be socialized with other dogs and people from the time they are puppies. Their silly, fun, but dignified personalities round out the loyal Akita.

4) Beagle

This merry hound is friendly, curious and incredibly loyal. While he doesn’t mind the occasional couch potato time, this spunky pooch is energetic and merry. A fun fact about this hound: the breed standard is for 13 inches and under and another in the 13-15 inch category. No matter how you size him, these adorable dogs just want to cling to you.

This wrinkly non-sporting breed is standoffish to strangers but very loyal to his owner. His ancient Chinese roots are part of the charm of the Shar-Pei. Regal, strong, and smart, if you want a BFF for life, this loose-skinned pooch may be the right choice for you.
