Your Daily DogScope for July 14, 2025
Life is ruff when you're four-legged and furry with a completely clueless human. Fortunately, our daily Dogscope can brighten those boneless days with a little encouragement and a helping paw. Working well in groups has paid off for you. You and your inner circle are the aristocrats of the pack, the creme de la creme. You know fur has nothing to do with it, but your owner just doesn't get it. You and your owner aren't exactly two peas in a pod today. In fact, you might be more like Mutt and Jeff. But even if one of you is radical and the other conservative, you just won't rub each other the wrong way. Sometimes all it takes is learning one new trick and your whole brain expands. Is it really that easy to become radically changed or is the feeling an illusion? Try it and find out. How can your owner remain so aloof in the face of all your slobber? It's a mystery, but one you'll never unravel. In the mean time, find a different way to get the goods. It seems like there are nothing but clashes at the dog park. Like most relationship issues, egos play a big part. Find a different approach. Put your puppy love out front instead. Are you compatible? Reveal your Compatibility Score now! Your regular way of doing things may be different. Instead of barking at the mailman, you may find your tail wagging. Be open minded to a whole new world view. Why does your owner speak gibberish? You can understand some commands but not others. Figure out a way to have fun with it all. If you hear heel, sit. And if you hear stay, roll over. You may not have learned this lesson yet, but the major drawback of a new couch is, you're not welcome on it. So when your owner starts getting the urge to redecorate, drag them out for a walk instead. Don't miss circle time at the dog park. The pow wow is as much an exchange of ideas as it is of scents. So keep an open mind and try to connect. Plans for a radically different kind of walk won't go well, so don't bother pulling hard in an unusual direction. But if you keep it all subtle, you and your owner will both be in for a pleasant surprise. High energy and lots of excitement -- that's nothing new. But your vision of what to do with it all is. Try to communicate it to your owners. They'll listen today. Be careful with your feelings. The whole day could get sucked into a vortex of loneliness if you let it. Dreaming about other dogs may be second best but it's better than nothing. Get even more insights for the month ahead with your premium Monthly Horoscope.

Dachshund Sweetly Brings 'Gift' to Human Baby Sister Each Day Like a True Prince
Dachshund Sweetly Brings 'Gift' to Human Baby Sister Each Day Like a True Prince originally appeared on Parade Pets. When a new baby joins the family where pups rule, there are a few different ways it can go. If you're one of the lucky ducks with friendly, loving, and accepting dogs, it'll be a whole lot easier to adjust to the many changes babies bring. Dachshunds like Wilbur and Palmer not only understood the assignment, but set the curve for the whole class with the incredible way they've been handling the newbie — complete with morning presents! Wilbur has to be an angel in disguise by the way he thoughtfully grabs his favorite stuffie of the day to offer his newborn sister. The video is an oldie that Mom forgot about, but for nine months straight, the generous Dachshund gifted the baby girl with toys. How sweet is that?This is all very much in Wilbur's wheelhouse and something he does for everyone he adores. This is the pooch who waits by the door for Dad with a "welcome home" stuffie, and plants himself at the bottom of the stairs every morning with a cool toy to greet Dad when he comes down for breakfast. Basically, Wilbur is an actual saint and the world doesn't deserve his big, beating heart! We can't count out doggy sister Palmer, because she's just as amazing, but it's Wilbur's dedication to being of service that gets our standing ovation (and then some)! Many of this good boy's 84k TikTok followers' hearts are exploding over this montage. It's clear the kind Doxie is counting down the days until little sis can sit and play with him, and they're already getting a head start with their baby/dog-friendly ball bit (where Wilbur once again brought "his" baby a stuffie gift). The science behind dogs bringing their people gifts is so heartwarming. While it can be a sign of self-soothing, getting attention, or just a welcome offering, they may bring their favorite toy in hopes of a little play sesh — or, my favorite, because they're SO excited to see us, they simply need to channel all that happiness zipping through their veins. The next time your dog brings you a beloved stuffed animal gift, they're telling you they love you and their life with you. All of that makes Wilbur's daily gesture a million times cuter! 🐶🐾🐾 Dachshund Sweetly Brings 'Gift' to Human Baby Sister Each Day Like a True Prince first appeared on Parade Pets on Jun 18, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade Pets on Jun 18, 2025, where it first appeared.

'Literal lifesaver': Abandoned dog hailed a hero for giving blood to anemic pup
An abandoned pup at a shelter in Texas is being hailed a hero after he stepped in as a canine blood donor for a sick pup, who needed help fast. Bronson, a one-and-a-half-year-old part terrier and part pit bull awaiting adoption at Austin Pets Alive!, a non-profit rescue shelter, saved the day - and a puppy - by becoming a canine blood donor. Nemo, a tiny month-old puppy, had just arrived at the shelter along with his mother and siblings from the Austin Animal Center. He was suffering from anemia, which meant that there were not enough red blood cells to supply oxygen to his body. "The smallest of the litter, Nemo, was dangerously anemic and needed help fast," APA said in a news release. Video footage shared by the shelter shows Bronson patiently cooperating with the shelter staff as they draw blood from him. Later, a tiny Nemo can be seen receiving the life-saving transfusion. "Thanks to Bronson and the expert care of the APA! clinic team, Nemo stabilized and is now in foster care, healing alongside his siblings and getting stronger every day," the shelter added. The pup is doing well; however, Nemo remains the smallest of his litter and has a cloudy eye, which may indicate a vision impairment, according to the group's spokesperson. Bronson, who is now up for adoption, was found abandoned and tied to a pole in APA!'s parking lot last month, the shelter said. He was taken into the shelter's care after no microchip was detected, and no one came forward to claim him. The shelter described Bronson as a "goofy, high-energy adult pup with the heart of a puppy, a love for zoomies, a talent for stealing the spotlight with his giant expressive ears, and a joyful spirit that guarantees endless fun and affection." "In his few days at the shelter, he has already won over the hearts of our staff with his playful charm and loving spirit," the nonprofit rescue said. Bronson loves being around people and other dogs, the shelter said, adding he's ready to "find a loving home." "From being left behind to becoming a literal lifesaver, Bronson's journey is a powerful reminder of how every animal has worth, and every one of them deserves a chance," the rescue said.

Nowhere to take thousands of dogs roaming Memphis streets
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Contessia Humphrey went to Memphis Animal Services on Tuesday to drop off a sick puppy she found digging through a trash can in South Memphis, but ended up leaving the shelter with a second dog instead. Humphrey said MAS wouldn't take the puppy, so she agreed to foster it. She said when she left the building, she was approached by a woman who had been trying to turn in a stray Labradoodle she also found in South Memphis, but was not having any luck inside. 'She was waiting on them, and it took them so long. She just finally said You know what, I'm just going to keep the dog,' said Humphrey. 'She said Ma'am, I can't keep this dog. Can you please take it?' MAS tells WREG that they are currently accepting stray animals, but only dogs that are dangerous, sick, injured, or in immediate danger due to an ongoing distemper outbreak still active in the community. MAS stated it's working closely with the University of Florida to manage the situation and find a long-term solution, but Humphrey said there are too many strays that need help right now. Humphrey said she was asked to bring the sick puppy back to the shelter two days later when a veterinarian would be available. After Humphrey told them the puppy couldn't wait, she was sent to the Emergency Animal Hospital on Summer Avenue. 'So, I took the baby there and we were there like almost all night because they had a lot of animals. They had a lot of animal emergencies.' Humphrey said. Last fall, MAS said the city's stray dog problem was overwhelming the animal shelter. At the time, Interim Director Mary Claire Borys said around 20,000 stray dogs were living on the streets of Memphis. The same day Humphrey posted a picture of Daisy to the Lost and Found Dogs of Memphis, another person posted video of six puppies dumped on Boswell Avenue in East Memphis. 'I live in South Memphis, so many strays are in South Memphis,' said Humphrey. MAS is still encouraging the public to report strays to 901-545-COPS. However, the shelter is also asking people who find strays to reach out to local rescue groups or the Humane Society. The Real Good Dog Rescue said they receive numerous calls from people who have tried MAS and the Humane Society for help with a stray. The group said they are also getting more and more calls from dog owners who say they are moving and can't take their dog with them. The Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County said it is closed for any new intake appointments until the week of the 22nd. The Humane Society recommends submitting a surrender request if a stray pet is found, but cannot guarantee if and when they will be able to accept that animal based on their current capacity for care.

Travis Barker's daughter Alabama, 19, welcomes adorable new member of her family amid Bhad Bhabie feud
Travis Barker 's daughter Alabama Barker has welcomed a new member to her family. The daughter of beauty queen Shanna Moakler, 50, has adopted an adorable French Bulldog. She showcased the new puppy in two sweet photos posted to her Instagram Stories. In one photo she snuggled the sweet dog to her neck and captioned it, 'Good morning!! My baby.' In the other photo, the puppy laid on its back exposing its little belly to the camera. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She didn't mention in her post if she had settled on a name for the cute dog yet. She captioned a since-deleted video, '@pawznclawzfrenchies @stone_highland_frenchies THANK YOU SO MUCH! I love my baby.' It's fitting that Alabama would choose to adopt a Frenchie over other breeds, as her dad Travis has already owned at least five of the snubbed-nosed dogs. In addition to Alabama, Travis also shares sons Landon, 21, and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 26, with Shanna, as well as son Rocky Barker, 18 months, with wife Kourtney Kardashian. In 2022, Alabama shared her devastation when her family's beloved dog Blue passed away. 'You will never understand how much you helped me on my darkest days,' she wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. 'You slept next to me, the way I would throw your ball and you would run with excitement, or the eyes you had that just touched everybody, I'll never forget you my baby.' She added that Blue will 'have the most amazing time up in doggy heaven,' and added, 'Until we meet again my love.' In March, the teenager debuted her new boyfriend, UCLA football player Scooter Jackson. The athlete used to be at Utah Tech but only recently transferred to Los Angeles. I This comes after the blonde pinup shared she had received six dozen off-white roses for Valentine's Day from a suitor. This follows a strange time for Alabama after some drama with another star. In February, Bhad Bhabie released a track called Ms. Whitman that dragged Alabama, the Kardashians and her dad Travis into the feud. The title of the song Ms. Whitman refers to the 1993 film True Romance and the character Alabama Whitman, whom Alabama was actually named after. The intro of the song features a sample of Kim Kardashian's ex-husband Kanye West's song Carnival. And she takes it another step further by bringing up the long-standing rumor that her stepmom Kourtney began dating Travis after he was rejected by Kim. Bhabie, born Danielle Bregoli, also rapped about Alabama being 'kicked out of the Kardashian house' for having a 'stanky p****.' The feud ignited in December after Bhabie accused Alabama of being a homewrecker and stealing her now-ex Le Vaughn, which she has since denied. After the music video and song dropped, Alabama took to her stories to react, sharing a selfie with a cryptic message implying she was releasing a retaliation rap track. In a since-deleted post from December, Bhabie wrote: '@alabamaluellabarker took my man.' She also posted emojis of a melting face as well as a boxing glove. In a follow-up post, she added: 'I told him next time I catch you. You gon be with them!' Then, she declared that she was 'single' in a one-worded post. Barker later addressed the claims on her own Instagram account and said that she had 'no interest' in Vaughn. She also said that it was Le Vaughn who has been contacting her and 'confessing his feelings' for her for nearly a year. In a lengthy post, she wrote: 'I want to be clear: I have no interest in this man, nor would I ever lower myself to be with someone who has been physically abusive towards women.' She said that after learning that he was in a relationship with Bregoli, she 'apologized multiple times' to the rapper - who welcomed daughter Kali Love with Le Vaughn last year.
