He Was Dumped On Christmas Eve 4-Years Ago And Still Needs A Forever Home

Every year, millions of animals enter shelters and wait for someone to adopt them or risk being euthanized.

For one particular dog, a St. Bernard mix named Bernard, he’s been waiting an awfully long time.

Bernard was found tied to a fence at a veterinary practice in San Antonio, Texas back on Christmas Eve of 2015.

Since the Bulverde Area Humane Society was the only shelter in the area that had space that day, that’s where Bernard was sent.

Whenever visitors come to the shelter to see the available pets, Bernard (aka Bernie) gets excited, spins, and barks for someone to take him home.

Sadly, four years have passed and poor Bernie is still waiting.

The shelter says he would do well in a home without other pets and where he could be the center of someone’s universe.

He is a 65-pound pooch that is neutered, microchipped, heartworm-negative, and current on all vaccinations.

He’d do well with an active family who will also let him have fun in a child’s pool full of water.

He needs to be an inside side, so for anyone who has a special place in their heart for this nearly six-year-old pup, be sure to visit the Bulverde Area Humane Society’s website.

We hope you find a forever home soon, sweetheart. Watch Bernie’s adorable antics in the video below.

Lucky Elderly Man Is Greeted Every Day By A “Friend” Who Crawls Out Of The Ice:

We’ve all seen some unique and unlikely friendships over the years, but this one here may take the cake!

One day, a starving otter appeared at an elderly man’s door wanting some food. Ever since, Seppo Laamanen, 65, and Iivari the otter have been inseparable best friends.

It all started when Seppo fed worms and fish to the small and malnourished otter who was clearly looking for food.

After that, the friendly animal repaid the kindness by visiting the man at his home in Punkaharju in easter Finland. This was the start of something special.

There’s no way Seppo could’ve ever imagined it’d all lead to this. This adorably unique friendship is one for the ages, and it’s something you have to see to believe.

There’s nothing like the bond between two friends regardless of the species! 🙂

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.

2) Boxer

This working dog is smart, full of energy, and oh so loyal to their family. They get along great with kids and have an innate instinct to protect their pack. He’s a watchdog with a heart of gold who oozes dedication to his owner.

3) Skye Terrier

Known as the “small dog with the big ears,” this adorable breed hails from the Scottish Isle of Skye, hence the name. Whether you live in the city or the country, this small dog with a big personality is steadfast in snuggling, playtime, and remaining loyal to his owners.

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.

5) Shar-Pei

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.
