Honoring Apollo: Mobile Shelter Waives Adoption Fees

You know what’s better with a dog? Everything. And yet, on any given day, millions of people run errands, go on a walk, take a nap… entirely dogless. Devastating, right? Fortunately, there are an estimated 3.1 million dogs in shelters across the country who would be delighted to accompany you for a full day or even just an hour or two. Isn’t that so generous of them?

These Volunteer Programs Let You Take Shelter Dogs Out for an Adventure

Every dog has their own idea of the best day of their life. For some, it’s receiving an assortment of their favorite toys from their favorite human. For others, it’s enjoying an uninterrupted dip at the local beach on a hot day. For shelter dogs, though, their idea of the “best day ever” revolves around this one thing: walking out of the shelter doors with their forever family by their side. Nothing matters more to a shelter pup than getting noticed by a potential adopter and eventually bidding the shelter life goodbye.

Dogs might not be able to speak, but their actions tell more about their personalities than any word could say. And, they often say much better things than human actions.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.
