Special Needs Dog Facing Daily Struggles After Carjackers Steal Her Wheelchair

Violet is a special needs Cocker Spaniel seeking public help after losing her wheelchair and all her disability supplies in a car theft.

Violet was found by the shelter in 2017 with severe urine burns from being dragged around in her own waste. Rescuers say she suffered severe trauma as a puppy which left her paralyzed from the back.

California’s “Camp Cocker Rescue” helped her get stronger with daily physical therapy. Getting Violet her custom-made wheelchair changed her life miraculously.

Now as a result of the theft, Violet has lost her mobility again. Violet is a part of the rescue’s “Forever Foster Home” program, where the shelter sponsors her medical and diet expenses.

The shelter has requested people to contribute toward Violet’s care so that they can refill her disability supplies as soon as possible. A donation can be made on their website here.

The shelter also shared a picture of Violet’s wheelchair. Anyone with any information on the whereabouts of the thieves or this custom-wheelchair is requested to contact the shelter or the authorities in Los Angeles.

Let’s spread the word and help the cops catch the thieves so Violet can get her wheelchair back.

Dog Seen Outside Of Store With A Sign Around His Neck:

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.
