When Hope For Paws received a call about a homeless poodle who’d been living under a home for five months, they knew their task of rescuing him wouldn’t be easy. As you can imagine, life on the streets was rough and had caused the poor boy to become aggressive and fearful of humans — even those who were trying to help him. After two hours and tons of patience, Eldad and his friend Lisa managed to get a lucky leash on scared little Scotty. You’re not going to believe his almost immediate transformation! Look how happy he is! YouTube Please consider donating to Hope For Paws so they can continue these life-saving missions in the Los Angeles area and around the country.

I don’t know who Kristy is, but she’s a very lucky woman. Why? Well, her husband knows just how lucky he is for getting to spend his life with her. When it came time for her 51st birthday, he refused to buy her a card to commemorate all their years together. He says, “Every year with Kristy is like a gift…no card from a store could put that into words.” So he made one. Watch and listen to his heartfelt tribute below! He has so many beautiful things to say about her, and on top of that, the snowy surprise? This man deserves a husband of the year award! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/birthday-snow/
When it comes to new things, our pups generally have one of two reactions: bark at it or run away. My dog definitely falls under the latter category, tucking her tail and hotfooting it out of there, but this brave bulldog stands his ground and decides to defend his dad’s bed. “Away with you, evil shadow pup(pet)!” Not every dog is scared of shadows, though… And at least he didn’t try to attack the wall like these cats…bulldog for the win!

It’s no secret that a lot of work goes into building elegant pieces of furniture, which is why most people opt to leave it to the professionals.

I never really grew out of the whole I-hate-brushing-my-teeth childhood phase. Really, the only reason I do it is because I think having bad breath is the absolute worst. I’m pretty diligent about mouth hygiene, but I’m also entirely stingy with my toothpaste. A little goes a long way so it takes me a while to go through a tube. But now that I know just how useful toothpaste is outside of the sink, I may go through a tube in no time! 1. Buff out crayon marks on your walls with some toothpaste and a soft rag.

I wish this was the last time I had to cover a puppy mill rescue, but I know it won’t be. Despite the widespread knowledge of the cruelty animals experience in puppy mills, the ASPCA still estimates that there are as many as 10,000 of these establishments all over the U.S. People who purchase animals from pet stores are all but handing their money over to unlicensed, horrible puppy mills. ViralNova No matter how adorable they look, odds are, the dogs came from an irresponsible “breeder” who cared very little about their well-being. This is what a puppy mill really looks like. YouTube / Animal Rescue Corps When the amazing people at Animal Rescue Corps got to the scene of this particular home in Morgan County, TN, they named the rescue Operation Dire Straits. YouTube / Animal Rescue Corps And it’s obvious why…these dogs had no time left. YouTube / Animal Rescue Corps Watch to see what else they found on the property and just how long they worked to save all these helpless animals. Please, please consider contributing to Animal Rescue Corps. They are doing incredible things to give animals like these ones a second chance at a happy, healthy life.

No one knows how long this elderly dog had been stuck in a sewage gutter before a kind soul fished him out. Sadly, though, that wasn’t the end of his hardship. The poor boy suffered a severe gash on his hindquarters and was in so much pain that he couldn’t stand. If the amazing people from Animal Aid Unlimited hadn’t come to rescue him, there’s no telling if he would have ever moved from where he was left. I was cheering in my seat when he was lifted up and stood on his own for the first time!

They call songs oldies but goodies for a reason — they’re classics and will probably never go out of style. But what happens when your vintage records with priceless tunes on them start to show their age? You could bite the bullet and buy digitized versions of your favorite songs…but there’s something off about that. Instead of losing the authenticity, give your records a good cleaning. Leave the professionals out of it — just grab some wood glue! Not only does this get rid of dust and grime, it also vastly improves the sound quality of your records. Who knew that all you needed was some glue?! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/wood-glue-record/
What is it about fire that has humans so mesmerized? Ever since its discovery, we’ve harnessed it for useful…and useless things. From setting 6,000 matches on fire to this video of a man lighting a match with another match, there are so many cool things you can do with fire. Then again, you probably shouldn’t try this at home… FIRE. YouTube While it’s totally cool to just watch, it’s also pretty useful if your match isn’t striking against the box!
