This week we were filled with happiness as a cat who lost both eyes was embraced and were sad to see a dog that was disposed outside a rescue center in a sealed box.
Besides the viral animal stories, we have actually been creating our Newsweek Pet of the Week lineup from our reader’s animal images and videos.
If you desire your animal to be part of next week’s lineup, follow the guidelines at the end of this story.
The Winner
Helen Maez
This week our winner is Sheba, a 1-year-old dog who was captured on electronic camera hilariously having fun with a traffic cone in the yard, even getting it stuck on her head.
Owner Helen Maez, who resides in California, sent the video in and informed Newsweek that her Dutch shepherd mix dog enjoys to have fun with all sorts of toys.
“She enjoys these traffic cones, all sizes too,” she said, chuckling. “Too amusing.”
Dogs playing is constantly a source of home entertainment, like the clip of a puppy playing peekaboo with an infant or the humorous minute a daddy took things “too far” when having fun with his puppies.
The Finalists
Steve Koran
Our initially finalists today are Buddy and Scout. Buddy the dog and his friend Scout the cat were typically seen cuddled up together in the garage.
“We got Buddy from Austin Pets Alive,” owner Steve Koran informed Newsweek. “Scout, on the other hand, was a roaming who roamed into our garage one hot summertime day.
“He had a chip, however his previous owners appeared to have actually moved away and abandoned him. He was really friendly, however our present cat, Lucky, didn’t desire anything to do with him. So, because we have a two-story home, Scout ended up being the downstairs cat,” said Koran.
Buddy and Scout would typically snuggle together, however regretfully Scout has actually because passed away.
“We can inform that Buddy misses him. So my spouse, Janet, and I attempt to spend more time with him and take him for long strolls,” Koran said.
–Darren Furano
Our next finalist today is Fergus, a 1-year-old bulldog who resides in British Columbia, Canada.
“He is caring, sweet and mild, however many of all he’s the happiest little person around who brings happiness to everybody he fulfills,” owner Darren Furano informed Newsweek.
Fergus has actually coped with the family because he was around 18 weeks old.
“Our preferred feature of him is that he simply lifts your state of mind at every interaction,” said Furano. “His preferred things are fresh beef, snuggling and play-wrestling on our bed.”
Amy Hunt
Last however not least today is Zelda, an 8-month-old puppy who resides in Kentucky.
“Zelda is a rescue from the Humane Society of Oldham County and went through their Camp K9 program,” owner Amy Hunt informed Newsweek. “It’s a program at some close-by state jails where prisoners train and take care of dogs that are then install for adoption. It is a fantastic program for everybody included.”
Now living full-time with his brand-new owner, Zelda typically has some severe zoomies—particularly with the present weather condition.
“With the heat and humidity, it is tough to securely play and work out outside much, so she has some bottled-up energy,” said Hunt.
