These Guys Were Out In The Ocean When They Noticed Something Very Strange Swimming In The Water!
A group sailing off the coast of Italy stumbled upon an unbelievable sight. The members of the RYCC Savoia Club were out in the Gulf of Naples when they spotted something far off in the rolling waves. It was steadily coming towards them and once it got closer they could barely believe their eyes.
A small, yellow little puppy was struggling to keep its head above water as it paddled towards their boat! The group quickly jumped into action and urged the dog towards them, if they couldn’t reach the puppy it would definitely end up drowning. At this point they were at least a mile offshore and were sailing in some very cold, open water.
After several tense moments the puppy made it to the side of the boat and was immediately hauled out of the freezing water by the scruff of its neck. A woman quickly embraced the exhausted animal and set about trying to warm her up. She rubbed the puppy quickly to help restore her blood flow and soon afterwards wrapped her up in a jacket and held her close.
The dog cried weakly and her legs were sluggish. She was visibly exhausted and trembling, but otherwise she looked okay. The group called for a rescue boat to come take her back to shore, where she was dried, warmed up with a hairdryer, and reunited with her owner.
Soon after the story about how the poor puppy came to be lost at sea emerged. Earlier that morning a dog named Noodle had boarded a ferry in Naples with her owner, Mario Di Meglio, who was bringing his new puppy home. They were headed to the island of Ischia, which is around 20 miles West of Naples, when suddenly Noodle slipped out of her leash and fell overboard.
Mario immediately told the ferry crew and tried to get them to turn back and rescue his puppy, but they wouldn’t stop and told him that it was likely she had already drowned. However, Noodle stayed afloat and paddled for at least the next half hour before her rescuers finally spotted her and picked her up.
The ferry company apologized for the incident and have since launched an internal investigation into their crews response and what exactly happened. Mario and Noodle are back together and are eternally grateful for the quick actions undertaken by the awesome group of sailors who rescued the stricken puppy.
It’s wonderful to know that there’s a happy ending to this unbelievable story that could have so easily ended tragically. It makes me want to hold my pets a little closer tonight and be thankful they are all well and safe.

He Tapes Cash To His Suit With A Sign Reading ‘Take What You Need’. What This Man Does Surprising!
If you saw the man in this video walking around with dollar bills taped to his suit, would you take any of it? The man in the suit is Coby Persin and he donned the expensive outfit as part of a social experiment. In addition to covering himself in fifty $1 bills, he also held a sign that read “take what you need.”
He hit the streets of New York City and walked around the Union Square area holding up his sign. The experiment was to see if people would actually take only what they needed, and to gauge how the city residents would react to such a sight. In a way, they didn’t disappoint, yet they did.
The first few individuals who helped themselves to the free money clearly did not need it. The first man to approach was a heavy set business-type man. He set down his briefcase before he started grabbing at least ten dollars off of Coby, and when questioned whether he really needed it he replied “I don’t need it, but it’s free…who wouldn’t take it?”
That seemed to be the rationale of the next man, a jogger, who ran past before turning back to grab about $5-7 from the money suit. And the next, a man on his cell, who plucked a few ones off of Coby before telling his friend on the phone that he didn’t even need it.
Soon after a blonde woman in a suit who was carrying a pricey designer handbag stopped to grab some money. Coby pointed out her Louis Vuitton bag and asked “You really need this?” to which she replied “Yeah, I have a nail appointment tomorrow.” So far, everyone who had taken money clearly did not need it in any way whatsoever.
They took it out of pure greed and for selfish reasons. Finally, Coby walked by a young man who appeared to be homeless. He was quietly sitting on the sidewalk with his dog, a larger breed covered in a warm blanket/shirt, when he spotted Coby and got up to approach him.
He was the first person of the day to actually greet Coby when he asked “How are you doing man?” and he didn’t just start plucking money off of his suit like he was entitled to it. Instead, the one man who truly needed the money the most, took just $2.
He said that was all he needed to buy food for himself and to “give whatever you gotta give to other people.” Coby tells him to take a few more dollars for the next day or meal, but the man declines and tells him again to give it to whoever else needs it.
That’s when Coby tells the guy that he’s amazing and that he wants to help him out, so he gives him $60 to put towards food for himself and his dog. Of all the people who took money from him, only one person actually needed it.
The others who took the dollars were seemingly well off in that they carried designer handbags and wore business suits. The reasons they provided for as to why they “needed” the money were either no reason at all or some sad excuse, like they needed it for a nail appointment the next day, or because it was free.
All those people took more than what they didn’t even need, while the one man who needed it took only $2 and did so because he was thinking about the others who might need it to eat as well. The video was summed up best with a few simple words “You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.”
Check out the video to see all the reactions, and for this message to really hit home.

17 Bears Were Held Captive In Concrete Pits For Years. Their Reaction When They Are Freed Is Priceless!
I am always heartbroken to hear stories of animals who are held in captivity under horrendous, inhumane conditions, when they are meant to live in the wild. Such was the case for seventeen bears, who were caged in small concrete pits, at the Black Forest Bear Park in Georgia.
For years they lived a miserable existence, being humiliated into begging for food from visitors to the park. The two female bears who are the subjects of this story were bred, and when they gave birth their cubs were ripped away from them at once. This would be akin to taking away a human child from it’s mother.
Years went by living in these horrid conditions until help finally arrived. Thanks to the joint effort of PETA, the Atlanta Humane Society and Sam Simpson, the day came for these tortured animals to be freed and brought to The Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado.
Watch as they get to luxuriate in the feeling of the earth and grass beneath their paws for the first time, after only feeling cold concrete for so long. No longer did they need to beg for food. They were free to roam and search for the abundant fresh fruit and vegetables that were available to them in the magnificent 60-acre sanctuary.
Part of this happy ending is that the two female bears were pregnant at the time of their rescue, and would get to experience the joy of getting to keep their cubs close, raising their offspring for the very first time.
Sit back and enjoy the footage, showing the sheer joy of the bears, as they are released into the freedom of their wildlife habitat. I love a happy ending!

They Found This Dog On The Side Of The Road Dying. 2 Months Later A Stunning Transformation!
The figure in this image, is almost unrecognizable as a dog. It is painful to look at, so one can only imagine what this starving dog felt like when he was found on the side of the road in Udaipur, India. His rescuers were from Animal Aid Unlimited.
They do truly remarkable work in providing help for all kinds of mistreated and injured animals from its region. It’s facilities are not only an animal rescue center, but function as a sanctuary and treatment operation, as well.
Jim and Erika Abrams, along with their daughter Claire initiated this operation with such dedication, that over 40,000 animals have already been saved. Depending on the animal’s situation and condition, some are treated and released, while others may live out the remainder of their lives at the center, if need be.
The incredible work they do is exemplified by the rescue of the starving dog rescued in this video. He also suffered from mange, which is a skin disease in which all his fur was gone and he was literally being eaten away by parasitic mites. Practically lifeless, his rescuers took him by net so he wouldn’t run away in fright.
He was terrified, as human contact was now so foreign to him. As you watch the gentle care of the Animal Aid workers, you will see how over a relatively short period of time, this dog began to trust, heal and come back to life. After two months of tender loving care (both medical and emotional) this sweet pooch made a complete recovery.
His transformation is unrecognizable; his spirit restored. This is one of the most moving animal rescue stories I have ever seen.

His Car Broke Down And Nobody Would Stop. When I Saw Who Finally Helped I Can’t Hold Back The Tears!
The following video comes to you from Hammy TV; a YouTube channel that has gained notoriety for their hysterical pranks. For this particular episode, instead of doing a prank, they decided to do a social experiment. Ryan, set up this social experiment, by jacking up an old car and sitting on his tire as if he needed help with a flat.
He wanted to see how willing people would be as they passed him, driving along in their day. Would someone stop to help him? People looked at him but drove by…for two hours!
No one even slowed down to ask if he needed help, they just drove right by! So much for the milk of human kindness, until finally someone stopped and pulled up behind him and got out of his car to offer assistance. Ryan finds out that the man had passed him earlier; he explains that he couldn’t stop as he had to make an appointment for his physiotherapy.
This kind soul’s name was Eric, and his story of loss and injury brought tears to my eyes. It never ceases to amaze me when help is offered by those who can least afford to give it. Many victims of trauma have been given the gift of empathy, that doesn’t allow them to disregard another’s misfortune.
He says he is happy to help Ryan with the tire, but asks him to get his wheelchair so that he remains steady! Ryan hears the terrible story of what Eric has been through, and then comes clean about the social experiment. What happens next brought tears to my eyes.
Watch the video and enjoy! You may need some tissues.

Pit Bull Saved From A Fighting Ring. Now Watch His Unexpected Reaction When He Feels Love For The First Time!
What you are about to watch in the video below, is both a story of the power of love and bravery. The Pit Bull who was rescued and brought to this shelter, was the victim of people who abused him for a dog fighting operation. It is appalling how animals are repeatedly put in dangerous situations for human profit.
A woman comes to visit this traumatized animal whom we see is behind bars. It seems that she is there to assess what he needs and his current level of aggression. Although she is clearly experienced with regard to animal body language and sound, I still found her approach to this frightened dog to exhibit not just compassion, but bravery.
He was moaning a sound that could be interpreted in different ways, but given the fact that he wagged his tail as she soothed the dog in a loving tone, she felt she could extend her hand to him through the bars. The look in his eye when she initially approached him, spoke volumes.
He looks mistrustful and beyond skeptical about approaching her. What eventually happens should not be missed. Pit Bulls, as a breed, have an aggressive reputation. Here lies a dog who has been used for just such a purpose. Tell us what you think about this stereotype after watching this injured dog’s response to this woman.
