A woman glanced at my dog and said he looked “dangerous.” She even questioned why a German Shepherd like him should be allowed on a plane at all. Let me introduce you to Drake. The same dog she felt uneasy about spent six years working with Marine Special Operations. Drake is a highly trained Multi-Purpose Canine. While most people instinctively move away from danger, his role has always been to run directly toward it. Here’s what he’s done: He has tracked high-value targets during critical missions. He has located hidden explosives before they could harm anyone. He was shot twice while protecting the team he served with. That scar on his shoulder? It came from shrapnel during an IED blast in Helmand Province. Even while injured and bleeding, Drake kept going and identified four more explosive devices nearby, helping keep his team safe. And that slight limp you noticed? It’s from taking multiple rounds during an ambush while shielding his handler. Because of him, a young Marine made it home alive to his child. Drake has been awarded a Navy Commendation Medal and a Purple Heart. He’s also credited with helping save over forty lives. And here’s the part that truly matters — he has never bitten a single person. The only things he’s ever gone after were threats to the people he was trained to protect. So no, I won’t be moving my seat. But if you’d like, you’re more than welcome to thank him for his service. If Drake’s story changed the way you see him… Comment “Drake” below. I’d love to show you what Drake is like now — the calm, loyal side of him, and the way he still quietly watches over everyone around him. | Dogs Are Our World 14M views · 515K reactions | A woman glanced at my dog and said he looked “dangerous.” She even questioned why a German Shepherd like him should be allowed on a plane at all.

In case you were wondering about the beautiful dog in the picture with Taylor Swift, here you go! Her name is Jellybean and she's a graduate of Canine Assistants, a school that raises and educates dogs for service or for facilities. I've had the pleasure of interviewing Jellybean’s mom, and she said that facility dogs work in hospitals, school settings, nursing homes, dentist offices, anywhere that needs them. The dogs’ handlers are often child life specialists working together with the dogs to help patients achieve medical goals. Sometimes the dogs help kids walk after surgery, help with medication compliance, or help with motivation to participate in therapy. Things in the hospital can be scary, especially for kids. The dogs help to soften the environment and make the work feel more like play while simultaneously providing comfort and motivation to complete tasks that otherwise could be very difficult. For example, walking after surgery can be scary and painful. Often kids don't want to do it. But somehow when the dogs are there, the kids are motivated in a different way. It's like the dogs have a skillset humans don't possess. Jellybean lives with her mom who is her primary handler and her mom is also a child life specialist. Jellybean has 2 additional handlers that are child life specialist as well. Each of Jellybeans' handlers are proud of the work she does everyday. They say she is truly the best medicine! The card tricks in the videos are just fun labeling tricks that keep Jellybeans' brain engaged while entertaining parents and staff in the process. Along with jellybean, in the photos are additional graduates of Canine Assistants - Hunter, Litta, Dusty, and Patsy!

This is Cherry. Cherry is a young 4 year old Doberman with a playful side, a smart mind, and lots of love to give to the people she trusts. She has a medium energy level, making her a great balance of active and relaxed. She enjoys walks, playtime with toys, and settling in for some downtime. Cherry appears to be housetrained and walks nicely on leash, which makes getting out and about together easy. She's also quite the student and already knows several basic commands like sit and down, plus a few fun tricks such as paw and roll over. She enjoys toys and natural chews, which are great outlets for her energy and curiosity. With familiar people, Cherry is affectionate and enjoys being near her humans. She can be a bit wary of strangers at first and may bark if someone approaches too quickly. With slow introductions and a little patience, she warms up nicely, often after the first one or two interactions. Cherry is still figuring out how to socialize with other dogs. While in the shelter, she has met both male and female dogs. She may start off a bit stiff and seems to have limited experience with dog play. As she relaxes, she can become more social, though her play style can be a bit pushy, and she has overcorrected when another dog approached her in a way she didn't like. Becaus of this, a dog-to-dog meet and greet is strongly recommended to ensure the right match. Cherry would do well with someone who appreciates a smart, engaging dog and is willing to give her time to build confidence with new people and experiences. In return, you'll gain a loyal companion who loves to learn, play, and share her affection with her favorite people. Cherry needs our help. She’s a gorgeous dog. ❤️ Do you know anyone in the Palm Springs, California area that would be interested in Cherry? Looking for a Doberman Pinscher maybe?

My husband and I decided to open our hearts to a 10-and-a-half-year-old dog. We weren't looking to adopt another dog, but when we learned that she had spent three months at the shelter without a single visitor or adoption inquiry, we couldn't bear the thought of her growing old and passing away alone. Although she wasn't with a rescue organization, her story was shared widely throughout the animal rescue community. She was incredibly gentle and sweet, and the shelter volunteers adored her. They loved her so much that they often let her spend time with them in the office instead of leaving her alone in her kennel. The day after we heard about her, we went to meet her. The moment we saw her, we knew we couldn't walk away. When we brought her home, she was covered in ticks. Helping her recover wasn't easy. We made countless trips to the veterinarian, patiently tried different treatments, and devoted a great deal of time to her care. There were moments when it felt overwhelming, but we never regretted our decision. All we wanted was for her to spend the rest of her life surrounded by love. In the end, we received the greatest gift of all. She stayed with us for three more wonderful years before peacefully passing away at 13 and a half years old, an impressive age for a dog. She brought so much joy into our family and will always hold a special place in our hearts. Senior dogs may not have as much time left, but they deserve love, care, and a real home just as much as any other dog. 🐾❤️ 📹treatsnatcher

Peggy lived alone at the end of Hawthorn Lane, and the only one who really kept an eye on her was a big black Doberman named Bear. People in the neighborhood used to cross the street when they saw him. He looked like the kind of dog you read about in the wrong kind of story, all muscle and sharp ears. But anybody who actually knew Peggy knew that Bear followed her around the house like a shadow and slept on the floor beside her bed every night. Peggy was 79 and stubborn about living on her own. Her son had been after her for a year to move somewhere with people around, and she kept telling him she was fine, that she had Bear and that was plenty. One morning in the kitchen, she reached up for a mug on the top shelf and her legs just went out from under her. She came down hard on the tile and couldn't get herself back up. Her phone was on the counter, way out of reach, and the house was dead quiet except for her own breathing. Bear was at her side before she even finished falling. He nosed at her face and pressed against her, and when she told him to go, he ran to the front window and started barking, the deep kind the whole street could hear. He wouldn't stop, going from the window to Peggy and back again, over and over, until a neighbor two doors down finally came out to see what all the noise was about. She found Peggy on the floor and Bear standing guard over her, and she had the ambulance there within minutes. Peggy came home a week later with a cracked hip and a new respect for that dog. She still won't hear a word about moving. She says she already lives with somebody who looks out tor her.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue’s Florida Task Force 1 (#FLTF1) is on the ground in Playa Grande, La Guaira, Venezuela, standing alongside a community forever changed by the devastating earthquakes. The mission is complex but clear. It's driven by the possibility that a life can still be saved. That thousands of families are waiting for answers about the fate of their loved ones. For many of our rescuers, this mission is deeply personal. As Spanish speakers, they are able to communicate directly with the people they encounter offering not only life-saving expertise, but also reassurance, comfort, and compassion in their own language. In moments of unimaginable loss and uncertainty, a familiar voice, a few words of encouragement, or simply being understood can provide a measure of hope that extends far beyond the rescue itself. Our canine search teams are among the most vital members of this mission. Guided by their handlers, these remarkable dogs use their extraordinary sense of smell to detect the scent of people trapped beneath the rubble, helping our rescue teams search quickly, safely, and with incredible precision. This is what our team has trained for. But no amount of training can prepare you for the emotion of walking into a community devastated by disaster. In the days ahead, they will continue this mission with compassion, and determination. Far from home and working shoulder to shoulder with the Department of State and international partners, our 80-member Type I Urban Search and Rescue team and six extraordinary canines will continue this mission hoping to find life under the rubble. Please keep our team, every other first responder, and the people of Venezuela in your thoughts as this mission continues. Embajada de los EE.UU. en Caracas
