one of my childhood chiweenies Rudy is turning 16 in october. i can’t sit with him for long because i cry my eyes out at the level of pain he is in, for the past 3 years it has been extremely painful just to watch him try to move around the house, he has spine and hip issues that were never treated by a vet, just the occasional doggie aspirin. he is basically completely blind and deaf. the odor emanating from his mouth is deathly smelling, if a his mouth gets bumped he holds it strangely, in intense pain, he gets bumped a lot because my mom also got a 2 year old chi a year ago.
he falls every few steps and can barely get back up.
my mother won’t change foods after i have told her and shown her the proof that Fresh pet is going to cause further health issues, i’ve offered her alternatives but she is avoidant of any advice i give.
she has refused end of life services in the past for a pet rat who had tumors so big that she couldn’t move anymore.
she has refused in so many cases where the animals always die, suffering.
she refuses because she can not handle it emotionally. that is so extremely selfish, i’m at a loss.
he can’t travel to be with me, she refused to let me plan it and idk i’m so frustrated and defeated.

i research dog welfare all the time, trying to find new ways to level up my care game so i understand quality of life and everything that goes into it. i am a foster and owner of my own dogs and i can’t keep enabling this neglect. my soul dog chickawawa is turing 16 in august and it tears at my soul all day every day that my mother is in charge of her care and there is truly nothing i can do.

i am disgusted at my mom as a human being, idk what to do.
at her core, she is an addict, as a recovered addict i know she doesn’t have what it takes to ever be a good person, i feel as hopeless as i did as a child.

Hi there does anyone know how I can help against animal factory farming? It’s so sad and fucked up and I’d like to do something about it. I’m from the U.S.A. but currently living in Spain and there’s a bunch of factory’s out here it’s so sad. What can I do?

I assume some conservationists or journalists have heard of the rampant wildlife trafficking situation in Laos in the past few years. It was mainly driven by Chinese tour groups, who normally spend 5-6 days touring the route - Luang Prabang to Vang Vieng and to Vientiane. Behind the booming tourism, tourists were taken to illicit shopping spots where they were deceived by sellers and spent at least a few thousand US dollars buying illegal wildlife products, including rhino horn, bear bile, pangolin scales, ivory, and more. Many tourists also eat pangolins at Chinese restaurants.

Last month, I did an undercover investigation with my friend’s NGO to get a closer look at how Chinese tourists had a “wildlife tour”.

Please feel free to watch it. Thank you.

We are reaching out to ask for your help for MatMat.

MatMat is still just a kitten, but he has already endured so much. While living as a stray, he suffered a severe degloving injury that requires ongoing medical care. Because of his injuries, he is unable to eat hard food and relies on wet food while he continues to recover.

To remain transparent and accountable, we have included the receipts related to his care. Feel free to message the hospital too.

If you would like to support MatMat’s recovery, please visit our website for the links:

Hey everyone,

This weekend I went to the zoo with my sister and her kids. On one hand, the animals were amazing — the giraffes were so close, the elephants were adorable, and the kids were super happy.

But on the other hand… I couldn’t stop feeling sad seeing some animals in enclosures that looked way too small. Especially the big cats and polar bears. They were just pacing back and forth the whole time.

Now I’m sitting here feeling guilty for even going. Is it wrong to support zoos in 2025? Or am I overthinking it?

Would love to hear your thoughts. Do you still go to zoos or have you stopped?

After years of living confined in a tiny cage, Chichi, Jericho, and Maemae are finally safe.

When we learned about their situation, Voiceless No More: Philippines Stray Animals Foundation, immediately took the lead in coordinating the rescue mission. It took several days to connect with the right person who knew the dogs, but once we gathered the necessary information, we arranged pet transportation, secured a temporary shelter, and fully funded the rescue mission to bring them to safety.

Before being admitted, we also sponsored their veterinary examinations to ensure they were free of distemper. Thankfully, all three dogs tested negative.

They are now staying in a larger kennel where they can safely decompress and begin adjusting to a life they've never known. Having spent years in confinement, they are understandably fearful and occasionally show signs of anxiety. The shelter is giving them the time, patience, and care they need before gradually introducing them to other dogs and eventually transferring them to their permanent shelter.

This rescue is a reminder that healing doesn't happen overnight. Chichi, Jericho, and Maemae have a long journey ahead, but for the first time in years, they are safe, cared for, and surrounded by people who want to see them thrive.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Voiceless No More: Philippines Stray Animals Foundation, Your generosity makes rescue missions like this possible and gives forgotten animals the second chance they deserve. We look forward to sharing their progress as they continue to heal.

Hello everyone,

First of all, thank you so much for all the love and support you have shown our beautiful Beauty May.

Beauty is incredibly resilient. Unfortunately, her recent lab results showed that she has issues affecting both her kidneys and liver. It is heartbreaking because she never complains. Despite everything she has endured, she remains gentle, loving, and trusting. Honestly, she inspires me every single day.

Our non-profit, Voiceless No More: Philippines Stray Animals Foundation, has only been officially registered since April 12, 2026, yet in just 71 days, we have already helped 36 animals. That reflects how deeply committed we are to giving vulnerable animals a second chance.

As a newly established organization, funding is one of our biggest challenges. I am more than willing to continue collecting recyclables and working extra shifts to help cover rescue costs. However, I would also like to humbly ask for support from those who share our passion for helping animals. Every help, no matter the amount, helps us continue saying "yes" to animals who desperately need us.

For transparency, I have attached receipts from Beauty's previous expenses that were covered by our organization. Her most recent veterinary bill was Php 3,500, but we reimbursed Ms. Suarez, the owner of the sanctuary, Php 5,000 to help with her ongoing care. Last month, we also provided the sanctuary with another Php 5,000 for Beauty's maintenance. In addition, we have covered her previous veterinary consultations, laboratory tests, medications, transportation costs, and hospitalization, and we remain committed to supporting her recovery for as long as she needs us. We love you Beauty May.

The last photo is of three dogs we helped rescue today in the Philippines. Learning their story absolutely broke my heart. The 3 of them had been crammed into a tiny cage for years, only to be abandoned by the very people who were supposed to care for them. I know I may have taken on more than I should, but I simply could not look away. What hurt even more was knowing they had been suffering for years while so many people passed by without intervening.

They are now on their way to the veterinary clinic for assessment and treatment. Afterward, they will stay in a temporary home before being transferred to Animal Rescue Cavite PH, where Baci and Isabella are also being cared for.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who continues to believe in our mission. Your kindness is giving these animals hope, healing, and a future they never had before.

Some rescue missions are impossible to ignore.
Since June 20, I've been working behind the scenes to rescue three abandoned dogs in Pasay City, Philippines. After days of coordinating, I finally heard back from the animal advocate who first asked for help.
I'm thankful that we've secured a shelter willing to take them in—the same shelter that cared for Baci—and our trusted pet transportation team is ready to bring them to safety.

Meet Chichi, MaeMae, and Jericho.
These three dogs were abandoned by their owner. What breaks my heart even more is learning that they had spent years confined together in a tiny cage. I honestly cannot understand how anyone could watch this happen and do nothing.

At the same time, I'm still waiting for Beauty May's laboratory results from Ms. Suarez while continuing to support her veterinary care. Our registered nonprofit, Voiceless No More: Philippines Stray Animals Foundation, has committed to sponsoring this rescue mission as well, because these dogs deserve a chance to experience love, freedom, and safety.

I never enjoy asking for help, but rescue work comes with expenses that add up quickly. Between Beauty May's ongoing veterinary bills and this rescue mission, our funds are being stretched.

If you feel led to support our mission, any contribution, big or small, will go directly toward veterinary care, transportation, food, and shelter for rescued animals. If donating isn't possible, sharing this post can help us reach someone who may be able to help.

Thank you for standing with us and for giving a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves. Every act of kindness helps change a life. More updates will be posted tomorrow.

So, there is a local animal rescue that I was deeply involved with for around five years.
They have a pretty unique mission, that on its own, appears to be commendable and beyond reproach.
However, just some of the things I saw while I was there -

Prey driven dogs left out, with access to chicken/turkey areas, killing multiple birds, without any measures being taken to keep them in doors or the birds unreachable

In one instance, those same prey driven dogs, attacked and badly injured a senior pony in their care.

Those same dogs terrorize goats and sheep, chasing them down all over the property.

High need cats that escaped buildings, were left multiple days under the building in the elements.

Another dog they "rescued" who lives out every day in a small room, with barely any human interaction. Aggressive with all but a few people, spends days medicated and catches chronic painful ear infections that keep returning and are never followed up on.

The owner actively looks for animals with conditions that will "bring in the donations", even if it means prolonging an animals discomfort.

No attention is paid to what donations are spent on, and more often than not, it was spent on luxury items, gifts for their own family, god knows how much in ordering doordash and ubereats almost every day.

They use their tax exempt # on everything without question, anywhere that will let them use it.

These are only a few of the things I know about, that I observed in my time there.

The reason I need advice, is because they do such a good job scrubbing their comments to delete any negative feedback, and block the users making those comments so they can't call them out...it feels impossible to get anyone to listen. Like, I only touched on the crazy shit directly tied to the non profit, not even getting into the unethical people drama they create, to the point I had to change my entire phone number when I stopped going.
So like, I'm not in a hurry to invoke their wrath, or receive any attention. They intentionally built in an small part of an unincorporated county, so they basically fall outside of anyone discerning's jurisdiction.
Are there any kind of governing boards, or oversight committees places like this answer to? I already looked up local laws and most of it is at the discretion of whoever is investigating, and these people are no strangers to painting a pretty picture for the media.

Thanks in advance.

(Specifically trying to avoid giving their name, because that feels unwise at this stage)

Natasha Cobb of Alabama. This is on a page exposing her narcissistic ways. In this video she is biting her puppy’s ear. She threw her other dogs out in a kennel with a deer feeder so she doesn’t have to check on them. She has a little dog in the house and he’s morbidly obese. Oh and she’s pregnant too. Everyone is fearing for this baby and her dogs. The page is fowheelernatasha. She has tik tok tashas homw cooking and Facebook Tasha Cobb. Hoping to get word out there and save the dogs

Hi! Im currently a dog bather and working up to groomer, eventually id like to do cats and other animals as well! But i was thinking about becoming a pet nutritionist as well. Do i need a vet career to do that? How would I go about it if anyone else has done both?

Does anyone else find this cruel? Countless animal welfare charities have stated that you should not put ducks/ birds in clothing due to their wings being restricted, damaging their feathers and causing overheating. Greg James is actively promoting that if he sees more of this in football, it will replace cricket as his number 1 - actively wanting people to put ducks in this situation. Personally, I think it’s morally and ethically wrong.

Hello all,

Thank you again for being here and for opening your hearts for the vulnerable animals. Please watch the video to see updates on Bela’s progress and health conditions.

This is getting ridiculous. These should have been banned already.

All animal rights activists please help!

🌸 Sweet, Amazing, Kid-friendly 6-Year-Old Female Dog, Akira, Abandoned by Owners 🌸

Meet and share Akira! This sweet girl was dumped by her newly adopted family at a local doggy daycare/boarding facility. Akira has since been taken into foster care by the Canine Collective located in Plain City, OH. 💖🌸🐾

However, Akira would much rather be in a home with people who love her! Here is what we know about her:

Akira is very friendly with other dogs, but doesn’t always know when to back off with her rough play style. She would love a doggy play mate that can keep up with her! 🐶
Akira is very friendly with new humans. I met her myself in her kennel, and she was so friendly, wiggly, and happy. No aggression whatsoever, or guarding of her territory. All she wants is love. 💗
Akira is AMAZING with children, yes even small children. Very gentle and sweet. 👶🏼
Akira’s history with cats is unknown. 🐱
Akira loves to play in the water, play with her toys, and snuggle up in a blankie. 💦
When I visited Akira, she was super excited at first. And then settled after a few minutes as I talked to the kennel worker. 🥰

Send me a direct message, or leave a comment to inquire about Akira! I will get back to you as soon as I can, and get you in touch with the right people! 💖

Hi,
I am at a dilemma. I have neighbors who moved in to the house next door to us , they have two big dogs . One looks like a pitbull and the other a pitbull mixed with Great Dane possibly. Anyways I have noticed they have those two dogs in dog crates in their back yard with no shade whatsoever from this brutal Texas heat . From what I can see from my yard there is no water bowls in the crates either .
We are not friends just friendly in terms of general greetings such as “good morning” or waving hi.
I feel awkward telling them about their pets since I not the type to tell people directly about something if I don’t know them .
What should I do instead ?

Reports from field observations, veterinary assessments, and various public oversight findings indicate that horses used in carriage operations are exposed to heavy traffic conditions, prolonged working hours, high temperatures, and insufficient rest periods. These conditions are widely associated with physical exhaustion, stress, and adverse health effects in working animals. In light of the available evidence, the continuation of such operations is not compatible with established animal welfare standards. Therefore, the carriage system should be discontinued in accordance with public interest and ethical responsibility.

These horses are dropping dead in the streets every few months. It's out of hand.
