You dont get a Malinois, a Malinois hires you 😂

Sadly, scams targeting the elderly are increasing. Most seniors are lonely & answer the door or phone to chat with people they don’t know. It’s important to monitor all financial transactions of your senior loved ones. Put yourself & phone as a contact on all their accounts.

WE DID IT! 🎉🐶 Ridglan Farms is shutting down after decades of breeding for animal testing. Soon, 2000 beagles will be in loving homes❤️ BFP was honored to help place 568 of these dogs. Thank you to every donor, volunteer, foster, adopter, rescue partner, & activist involved.

“Woof @SecKennedy! As a rescued laboratory dog, I’m overjoyed that Ridglan Farms is closing! Thank you @LaraLeaTrump for your incredible stand, and protection of us dogs. ❤️🐾 Please remember that the @US_FDA recently underlined the *90% failure rate* of these cruel experiments on us dogs, and other animals, you can watch that news clip here: x.com/betsyambassador/status… Abandoning that level of failure - 90% - is *never* dependent upon what else is available. We need to ban these failed and cruel tests, as a top priority, now. Woooooooof!” 💞🐾 #EndAnimalTesting #EDM187 #EvidenceBased #Science #Dogs #Animals

Today @USDA @SecRollins and I secured a major win for animal welfare. Ridglan Farms will transfer its remaining 475 beagles out of a research breeding facility and into the care of a no-kill rescue, where they can begin the path to adoption. Thank you, @LaraLeaTrump, for championing this issue. We are also launching a new @NIH office, ORIVA, to speed the transition away from animal testing and toward modern, human-based science. We will keep fighting for humane treatment of animals, better science, and accountability.

If you want a dog like this, first off, you’re going to need a Belgian Malinois. They are essentially the Ferraris of the dog world. But good luck having the patience to slowly train them. It takes a massive amount of time, and you basically need the dedication of a full-time dog trainer to chain all those complex behaviors together. Once you actually get them to this level, though? They treat training sessions like a trip to the amusement park. Their work drive is so insane that they are genuinely enjoying the absolute hell out of it.

More of this please 😂❤️🙏

Without doubt the Mal is the finest martial dog breed in the world …. This is no lap dog. High energy. High maintenance. Needs lots of tasks and exercises. Eats lots of food. Choose wisely.

"This was filmed last Wednesday afternoon at Riverside Veterinary Clinic in Indianapolis, Indiana. The officer is Sergeant Paul Greer. He's 41 years old. Fourteen-year veteran of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department. The dog is Bruno. A ten-year-old German Shepherd who served eight years as Paul's K9 partner before a joint condition ended his working career two years ago. When Bruno retired from active duty, Paul adopted him immediately. Brought him home. Bruno spent his retirement on Paul's couch, on Paul's bed, in the passenger seat of Paul's personal truck. The transition from working partner to household companion was seamless. Bruno had always been Paul's dog. The badge and the vest were just part of the job. Over the past several months, Bruno's condition had declined steadily. The joint condition spread. He had difficulty getting up. Stopped eating regularly. Paul had been managing Bruno's comfort with guidance from Dr. Angela Reese at Riverside for months. Last Tuesday evening, Bruno stopped getting up entirely. Paul called Dr. Reese that night. Wednesday afternoon, Paul drove Bruno to Riverside. He carried Bruno in from the truck himself. Wouldn't let the techs take him. Paul's partner, Officer Dana Choi, came with him. She filmed quietly on her phone from the corner of the room. She told us afterward that she asked Paul's permission before she started recording. He nodded. Paul sat on the exam table with Bruno cradled across his lap and chest. Bruno's head rested against Paul's shoulder. His eyes were half-open. His breathing was slow and easy. Paul bowed his head and pressed his face into Bruno's fur. Bruno lay still for a long moment. Then slowly — carefully — he raised both front paws. One at a time. And wrapped them around Paul's shoulders. And held on. Paul made a sound that Dana said she will never forget. Dr. Reese, who was standing nearby preparing, went completely still. Her assistant took a step back. Nobody moved. Dana told us: 'Bruno could barely lift his head that morning. But he lifted his paws and he held Paul. In that moment, with everything he had left, he held him. I think he was saying thank you. I think he was saying goodb"

GOD BLESS YOU SIR 🫵🏻🫡 My respect 96 years . 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 AMERICAN MADE . The GOAT !! Clint Eastwood Said Something About Getting Old That Stopped Me Cold. Aging is not gentle. You are still here. Still present. Still watching the world move. But the body that carried you through everything - the wars, the work, the wildness of youth - begins to ask for more than you can give it. Joints that never complained now speak up in the morning. Eyes that once took in everything now flinch at the light. Breathing, which never required a single thought, starts needing little pauses. But none of that is the hardest part. The hardest part is the quiet. At a certain age, you reach for the phone and remember there is no one left to call. The people who knew you when you were young - who remembered the same summers, the same streets, the same faces - are gone. One by one, then all at once, until the memories you carry have no one left to share them with. So you tell the stories anyway. To whoever will listen. With a little more color than perhaps the truth deserves. With a touch of pride you've earned and a grief you don't always name. You know the person across from you wasn't there. You know they can't quite feel it the way you do. But you tell them. Because the telling is the holding on. Those stories are not just memories. They are the proof that a life was lived. That people were loved. That things mattered. And if no one asks for them - you offer them anyway, quietly, like setting something down on a table and hoping someone picks it up. Old age is not simply what happens to a face or a body. It is memory looking for a place to rest. And what an older person needs - more than advice, more than solutions, more than someone telling them how to feel - is simply someone willing to sit down, be still, and listen. Not to fix anything. Just to be there. That is the whole gift. And it costs nothing. ~Wild Whispers .

You guys…it DOES!

This is what the older generations should try and do more often

If a 17 year old kid making fast food deserves $20 an hour or $3200 a month, why isn't that the minimum Social Security payment?

Cartagena, Colombia is arguably one of the worst beach areas you can visit The locals are notorious for harassing everyone nonstop and ruining the experience 💀

About 400 years ago in Edo Japan a samurai lord was riding home through a sudden thunderstorm. He passed a tiny, run-down temple. At the gate sat a small white cat. The cat raised its paw at him. Almost like it was waving him over. Curious, he turned his horse. He stepped under the temple roof. A heartbeat later, lightning struck the road exactly where he had been standing. He survived because of a cat that beckoned him in. He spent the rest of his life making sure that temple never went hungry again. The temple is Gotokuji. It still stands today, in Tokyo. That cat became the maneki-neko — the lucky cat you've seen in every Asian restaurant in the world. It started as one cat saving one man's life on a stormy afternoon.

The renters threw a massive, unapproved party with over 100 people, causing an estimated $150,000 in damages. The home required professional hazmat crews to decontaminate everything. Police also discovered that the renters used stolen credit cards to purchase alcohol and food. Airbnb fully covered the costs under its Host Guarantee, including professional restoration, cleaning services, and temporary alternative housing for the affected family.

To everyone thinking about moving to Japan, especially those who strictly follow halal rules. Japanese vegetables are often grown with compost made from livestock waste. And yes, it is quite possible that fertilizer derived from pigs was used. But at Japanese supermarkets, you usually will not see signs saying, “This vegetable is halal.” So after coming here, please don’t say, “This is a religious problem,” “Japan should accommodate us,” or “Japan needs to change.” Japan was not built around your religion. I’m saying this now because I don’t want trouble later. If you cannot accept the reality of Japan, then moving here is probably not for you.

Even a smoked-out knuckledragger like myself can see the money’s broken. Cheeseburger math says silver beat inflation 1964-2026! Ten dimes in 1964 bought about five McDonald’s cheeseburgers. Ten modern dimes won’t buy half of one. But ten 1964 silver dimes Today buy about twenty. Same face value. Totally different money. Fix the money mang!

The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans... The French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans. Conclusion: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

UNREAL: 🇺🇸 President Trump announced plans to send $2,000 checks to every American, funded by tariffs collected this year. President Trump said this is “a win for the American people.” Meanwhile, the tariffs were declared illegal. The US government is now refunding businesses with that same tariff money. The tariffs that consumers actually paid through higher prices. So you get no check. But you already paid the bill. Make it make sense.
