I'm deeply saddened

After reading this news story, it makes me nauseous. To think about people treating animals like they are disposable and cannot feel pain and emotions makes me lose that much more faith in humanity. I am very thankful that there are like minded people out there that can agree that dog fighting, and all animal abuse, is atrocious. What kind of person gets joy out of torturing animals? It's disgusting.

If you are interested in making a donation to the organization that is caring for the pit bulls in this particular dog fighting ring, you can do so on their website. BARCS has unfortunately been in the news a lot recently since there have been numerous animal cruelty cases discovered in Baltimore. I am thankful there are kind people to work and volunteer for shelters like BARCS, so that many more animals can be cared for.

If you know of animal cruelty happening, please report it. That is what saved some of these dogs, although some couldn't be saved and thousands more are out there that need to be saved.

Thank you.

Happy World Vegetarian Day :)

"Every animal with legs deserves to run. Every animal with fins deserves to swim. Every animal with wings deserves to fly."

I can't remember where I first saw this quote, but I really like it.

Today is World Vegetarian Day and the start of Vegetarian Awareness Month!

I took this picture a few years ago at the Maryland State Fair. The pigs were so sweet and loved to be touched. They would wag their tails when someone pet them. I want a pet pig so so bad :)

Sharon Montrose is a wonderful photographer that specializes in capturing images of animals in a very unique way. Recently she listed some adorable puppy pictures on her blog, and I couldn't help but share a few because they made me smile. Her blog features tons of adorable dog photos. I can't get enough of them! She also sells her beautiful photos on Etsy, and it's not hard to see why she has had over 2,000 sales.

These are two of my favorites from her shop :)
