On Saturday - April 11 (12-3PM) at Pier 23 we will be celebrating the life of sweet Golden Boy - Brixton At Large the iconic Heart of San Francisco with an epic Love Fest Memorial.

The parents of Grace Lynch stated, 'There is no point having a new law banning the bikes if gardaí are not allowed to chase riders.' This reflects their concerns about the enforcement of the law.

James Short, who runs Adventure Pirate near Lytchett Minster, had introduced the three pigs to a plot of land adjacent to his education business, which previously housed animals.

A court in Barcelona has ruled that a worker's absence from her job to take her critically ill dog to be euthanised was justified on humane grounds, overturning her dismissal and highlighting evolving legal recognition of the bond between people and their companion animals. The Social Court No. 25 of Barcelona declared the disciplinary dismissal of a teleoperator improper after she missed several days of work, including one absence specifically to attend to her dog's urgent medical needs.

Some [pets] were microchipped and clearly once loved, but their families had gone. It's heartbreaking for rescuers and frightening for the animals. Animals shouldn't become the forgotten victims when people leave a country in a crisis. Pets rely entirely on their owners. They can't understand why their family has suddenly disappeared so we urge those facing uncertainty to remember their animals and get a proper plan in place.

A community defibrillator fundraiser has begun to remember a "very friendly and therapeutic" cat named Defib which moved into an ambulance station in east London 18 years ago. Defib lived at Walthamstow Ambulance Station, after being rescued by paramedics as a kitten in 2008 and "adored by them ever since". In 2024, the cat was faced with eviction from his home but this was overturned after more than 62,000 people signed an online petition.

The dogs come to be judged. The owners and handlers come to uphold breed standards. And, almost as reliably as the movie references and the best-in-show ribbon, Peta arrives ready to dominate the conversation. If there is one certainty about the Super Bowl of canines, it's that the protest will share the stage with the pageantry. Westminster is an annual collision of tradition, spectacle and dissent, and Peta has become exceptionally good at owning that moment.

Authorities are seeking to identify a person or people believed to have abandoned five dogs in unkept condition over several days. Animal Services located and took in five similar dogs over a 72-hour period, according to a Saturday social media post from the Fremont Police Department. The dogs are all about 4 years old and none have identification. They appear to be small, fluffy breeds, according to photos.
