He Heard Cries Coming From Under The Sidewalk. What He Pulls Out Is The Most Unexpected Surprise!
There are things that people in this world do that are beyond the scope of rational and compassionate human beings. Sometimes their repulsive cruelty is directed at totally innocent and wholly undeserving animals. Of all the messed up things that have been reported, this story of a pregnant dog stands out for not only being unbelievable, but also for having a happy ending.
It all started when a man in the Russian town of Voronezh heard a dog barking but could not tell from where the sound was coming. Vadim Rustam and his family first heard the noise when they returned from a trip and it seemed to be coming from underneath some steps on a recently repaired sidewalk.
A few weeks prior to the repairs a large sinkhole had suddenly appeared and caused damage to the building’s entryway. Once the pit had been filled the sidewalk was re-paved with bricks. Vadim got back about 2 days after the work had finished, and that’s when he heard a dog barking underneath the steps near the walkway.
This led him to believe that perhaps workers had ended up trapping a dog underground when they laid the sand and bricks for the walk. At a loss as to what to do, he went to the city’s housing office to report his suspicions and to see what could be done.
The people at the office told him that they were unable to do anything because they were not the ones who had done the repair work. They didn’t even offer him any helpful advice or suggestions, and so the family took it upon themselves to save the dog.
As you can see in the video, they went to the area where the barking noises were coming from and began to pry bricks loose. After a few had been removed, Vadim dug out piles of sand near the steps until he reached a rock that was wedged in and blocking off a gap underneath them. Once it was moved aside a bewildered, and relieved, looking dog’s face appeared. Vadim was right all long, a dog was trapped under the sidewalk!
The poor animal struggled to crawl out from the tiny space it had been stuck in. For two days the dog had been trapped all alone in a tiny hole and was unable to move, see, drink or eat anything. Vadim gently helped pull her out into the light and the lucky dog wagged her tail, greeted her rescuers sweetly, and seemed to smile. At that point the woman filming and watching the rescue noticed that the dog was pregnant, which makes the save all the more emotional.
While it isn’t clear how the dog came to be trapped, some people online have speculated that maybe she crawled into the hole to use it as a den where she could give birth. Other people said that the workers knew the dog was under the stairs and yet they didn’t bother to try and coax her out.
Instead, they wedged a rock in her only escape route and filled in the sand and bricks on the sidewalk. It seems from the video to be the latter case, the rock was purposely wedged under the steps, and it’d be nearly impossible to not notice a dog in that tiny hole.
The sweet dog has since been taken in and cared for by a local rescue group. She is reportedly doing well and will soon be up for adoption, and hopefully her puppies are all okay too. It is stories like this one that make people so angry, yet also so grateful and happy. It shows both the dark, evil side of man, and the positive, hopeful one that prevails in the end.

Two Fisherman Noticed Something Strange Paddling Toward Their Boat. But They Never Expected THIS
When you’re out fishing in the middle of a river the last thing you expect to see is a kitten, especially a little tiny kitty swimming in the water towards your boat! As strange as it seems, that is exactly what two men caught sight of while out on their boat. The two gentlemen had set out on Alabama’s Warrior River in search of some tasty fish.
They were set up near a small island in the river that had a lot of vegetation growing around it and downed trees. From the video clip it appears as if the current was not strong and the water was quite still, and the place looked like the perfect spot for snagging a big fish. However, instead of fish jumping in their boat, cats were coming out of the woodwork to catch a ride!
The two men were stunned when a tiny orange kitten came from the wooded island to their boat. The cat made a straight beeline for the watercraft and humans, who picked it up out of the water and placed it safely on the boat deck.
As if that was not amazing enough in and of itself, another tiny little kitten was spotted on the island’s edge and they heard it splash into the river. The second kitten also headed straight towards the boat and soon he was reunited with his sibling.
The two kitties looked grateful to be around people and they clearly were familiar with humans since they swam to the men and rubbed up against them once they were on the boat. They looked very thin and who knows how long they had been stranded on the island.
They must have been so scared and desperate to have jumped into the water and taken the chance on the strange men in the boat. Most cats typically hate water and wouldn’t be so willing or ready to jump into it, especially a huge expanse like the river.
Both the men and commentators on the YouTube video speculate that someone purposefully left the kittens out on the remote island. For what reasons, how long ago, or why may never be known and it takes an abnormal kind of sick twisted person to do such a heartless thing.
On a positive note, the kittens were rescued and they are now safe and dry. They hung out with the men for the day while they fished and when they returned to shore they were even adopted! A family with two young girls happened to be there when the men got back and the children fell in love with the kitties at first sight.
They have since been checked out by a local vet for free and are now with their new family. It turns out this unbelievable fishing tale has it all; video proof, adorable kittens, and a happy ending.

They Were About To Put Down This Pregnant Dog When The Vet Stepped In. You Need To See THIS Litter!
Every day animals are rescued and taken out of shelters just hours and even moments before they are scheduled to be euthanized. Many shelters struggle to house and care for the endless stream of animals that are brought in and only a few of them have no-kill policies.
Thanks to the efforts and work of people all across the nation some of the animals who are about to be put down end up getting pulled out. One non-profit program called Vet Ranch is involved in doing just that. The Texas based organization recently rescued a pregnant dog named Gracie, and thus gave both her and her unborn babies a second chance at life.
Gracie is a white and black spotted dog who is friendly, happy and very sweet in nature. When she got to Vet Ranch she was clearly pregnant and had a bad eye that she likely couldn’t see out of. The veterinarian examining her, Dr. Schuessler, determined it wasn’t causing any pain and so her treatment was focused first on her unborn babies.
He examined her, took an x-ray to check on the growing puppies, and kept a close eye on her in the days leading up to her expected delivery date. When Gracie was further along in her pregnancy a follow up x-ray showed why she was growing so big, between 11-12 puppies were in her belly, which was quite an unexpected surprise!
Dr. Schuessler wanted to make sure that Gracie wasn’t alone when she delivered the puppies so every day he checked her for any signs that indicated she was about to give birth. Despite his best efforts, one morning the Vet Ranch staff came in and there she was, laying on the ground with 12 of her newborn babies!
Some were still wet so the staff knew she must have just given birth. They helped clean them off, warmed the newborns up, and placed them back with their mama who was already nursing them and showing signs of being a great mother.
Thanks to all the work and attention of the staff, plus individual’s donations who make it possible in the first place, Gracie and her puppies are alive and well. The video tells the rest of Gracie’s story and gives an update on her puppies.
One Vet Ranch client has even taken in Gracie along with one of her babies, while the rest will be placed in good forever homes. Hopefully her story will inspire more people to rescue and adopt shelter animals, especially those who are scheduled to be euthanized for no other reason than ending up at an overcrowded shelter.

A Giant Whale Kept Swimming Up To These Guys. Then They Realized Something Was Seriously Wrong!
Two young fisherman from Australia recently had an amazing run in with an enormous whale while out on their boat. Seventeen year old Michael Riggio and his friend Ivan Iskenderian were returning from a fishing trip in Middle Harbour, which is north of Sydney, when a whale swam up to them.
At first the boys were surprised and amazed that a whale was coming in so close to shore and the boat. It repeatedly poked the tip of its barnacle speckled head up out of the water and even nudged the boat several times.
As the whale continued acting more and more atypical another fisherman took notice. Ron Kovacs was in a boat across from the boys and started to record the strange scene. The whale circled the watercraft and swam underneath it a few times before it resumed poking its head out of the water. That’s when the boys realized the reason for the whale’s uncharacteristic behavior; it needed help.
In its mouth was a tangled mess of fishing wire and several plastic bags that had gotten stuck. The unwelcome garbage was clearly aggravating the whale and it wanted it removed. Iskenderian sprung into action and leaned out as far as he could when the whale neared the boat.
He managed to snag the trash and free the whale from having it stuck in his mouth. As he was doing that, Riggio whipped out his cell phone and used the scene as a backdrop for some selfies. He ended up capturing and preserving the incredible, unbelievable, once in a lifetime moment and shared it with the world.
After the wire and plastic had been removed the whale happily swam off to deeper waters. As it glided out to sea it slapped its fin on the water’s surface, as a way to show appreciation and say thanks to the people who helped it out. The man recording the video, Ron Kovacs, summed it up best when he later wrote on his Facebook page “He was very enquisitive and more interested in us.
You could see that big eye coming out watching us. They are not dumb for sure.” He is 100% correct, whales are far more intelligent and clever than most humans ever give them credit for. They say the eyes are the window to the soul, and when Kovacs looked into the whale’s eye he saw a peaceful, smart, wise, and gentle creature who needed a little help. Once the whale received that help, it expressed thanks and continued on its way.

Nobody Believed Them When They Described The Puma’s Morning Ritual So They Caught THIS On Video
The little puma cat in this video may appear intimidating and formidable, but when she opens her mouth she becomes anything but that! Her name is Yazhi, she was named after the Native American word which means “little one” in English, and it’s clear to see why.
Yazhi looks so tiny and small in stature for being a member of a big cat family. Pumas are the second largest cat in the Americas and throughout the world they are called many names. In fact their species, P. concolor, holds the Guinness world record for the animal with the greatest number of names, with over forty English ones alone. Several commonly known names include mountain lion, cougar, and panther.
Yazhi is an adorable cat who was hand raised at Paradise Wildlife Park, located in Broxbourne in Hertfordshire, England. The park is a sister site to the Wildlife Heritage Foundation (WHF) which is where Yazhi now resides.
The pretty puma was rejected by her mother shortly after birth and would not have survived without human intervention. WHF staff took her in and nursed her into the healthy, thriving puma we see today. They describe her as extremely playful and rambunctious, and when her keepers go into her enclosure to play with her she gets very excited and absolutely loves interacting with them.
The noises Yazhi makes are common of her species. They are capable of producing a variety of sounds and can purr, chirp, whistle, hiss, and scream. The video is titled “A puma singing” but Yazhi’s song sounds more like she’s half meowing, half squeaking, and maybe even making some low growling noises.
She talks a lot for a puma, they are known to be mostly silent, and it’s likely because she spends a lot of time around noisy talkative humans. Her song is certainly different than any of the sounds a house cat makes and it will put a smile on your face when you hear it!

They Walked Outside and Saw A Puppy Who Escaped From A Dog Fighting Ring. What Follows Is INCREDIBLE
image via – youtube.com
A five month old pit bull puppy ended up in a rescue shelter after he was found wounded on a porch this past May. The punctures to his neck and face are thought to be from illegal dog fighting. Lovingly called Jax, the pup was in rough shape.
His head was swollen, eyes shut, with a big gash on his neck. Jax showed his appreciation for being taken in by loudly thumping his tail at the approach of a person, despite his painful state. Nightly visits to Jax revealed perseverance and recovery. His tail wagged a little longer, his eyes opened a little wider.
Jax began showing interest in play and even began to smile. The poor thing spent two weeks in emergency care before he was released to foster. The young lady who was the recipient of the porch pup thought he was going to die on the way to the hospital. She confessed being angry when she saw what had happened to him. She felt saddened and needed to help.
A victim of dog fighting, Jax was fully recovered after three weeks. He was allowed to go to his self appointed home by the magic of Grace. This heart breaking story serves to send the message that dog fighting is detrimental.
If you suspect this sort of animal treatment anywhere, it should be reported immediately to your local authorities. Don’t let animal abuse go without penalization! There are animals everywhere suffering and you can save them.
