Morrissey was just a goofy puppy back in 2019. Picked out of his litter to be trained as a service dog for two years, Morrissey has matured to be a more competent and composed assistance animal. After thousands of hours of training, he is graduating and will be matched with Danielle Lambert, an Airforce National Guard member and local school clinician.

Instead of being paired to a single individual with service dog needs, Morrissey will work with Lambert in changing the lives of students with autism. For Morrissey’s National Guard duties, Lambert hopes that Morrissey can make members of the service open up to mental health support which is needed a lot.

Senior residents of Pacifica Senior Living were graced by the presence of rescue animals from the Funky Chicken Rescue and Zinger Ranch last Friday, April 23, 2021. Farm animals like goats, chickens, and ducks greeted the elderly from outside the home’s windows as they responded with smiles from the inside.

“Being around animals lowers blood pressure, and you can’t help but look at a chicken and laugh. That’s the kind of joy we’re trying to bring, give them a little break from the routine,” said Rosa Gracida, Pacifica’s sales director.

The elderly are among those that have been greatly affected negatively by the pandemic’s social-disconnection effects. Seeing animals have provided them immense joy even if they don’t get to hold the fuzzy critters.

As the world recovers from the unbalance caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, there is one thing that we all think about and agree on – be prepared for every type of disaster humanity could potentially face.

For some members of Britain’s equestrian community, they already had preparations in place. That includes stocking up animal food and creating care instructions in case owners are no longer able to visit their horses – particularly useful for those who are at high risk of contracting COVID-19 and in danger of being severely affected by the virus.

“Understanding the uptake of emergency planning and preparation in the UK equestrian community also warrants consideration. Using this information effectively to promote forward planning is likely to be of great benefit in equestrian responses to future health or climate-related crises,” said one of the team members surveying the UK horse owners.

Humans are truly fortunate to have organizations to turn to like the Red Cross, food banks, or fire departments when times of crisis arrive. Sadly, there isn’t much help for animals and pets. That’s why Westmoreland/Fayette/Allegheny County Animal Response Team started a pet pantry to keep all animals fed that have been affected by the pandemic in the area.

But now, the pantry stocks are running low and they require supplies to keep the affected animals fed. On top of that, the number of animals in need is also growing. You can help by dropping pet food in donation boxes at Eastgate Plaza Giant Eagle, 5142 Route, Hempfield; Pet Market, 250 S. Third St., Youngwood; Abie & Bimbo’s Pizza, 1017 Highland Ave., South Greensburg; and Petagogy, 240 E. Pittsburgh St., Greensburg.

For those who are willing to give gift cards or checks for supplies, you can send them to the Pennsylvania State Animal Response Team, 8355 Route 819; Greensburg, PA 15601. You can also send your credit card donations through paanimalresponse.org.

Benny Button has been in the care of the Humane Society of West Michigan (HSMW) for over four months. She was rescued but came with a lot of medical complications. Fortunately, this cute cat is now feeling better due to support from her foster mother.

Despite the care she received in this foster home, she still deserves to have a family of her own. Currently, Benny is 1-year-old and she would most likely be shy on first meeting. But if she grows fond of you, you’re going to have an affectionate cat that loves to play.

You can contact the adoption department through adoptions@hswestmi.org or visit HSMW through their website.

The death of a family member often causes heartbreak in the house. But for the Griers, it inspired them to help others. Back in 2019, Mandy Grier died at the age of 42. She was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 7 years old. As a result, she often needed to be supervised.

But that changed when Mylo the Yellow Labrador came. As a diabetic alert dog, Mylo gave Mandy the means to live a more free, loving, and independent life. In honor of her memory, her family started M&M Angel Service Dogs – a fundraiser aimed to raise money so a child can get a diabetic alert dog.

This year, the City of Eastpointe in Michigan will have a new Animal Hospital. It will be opened by the same team behind the Detroit Pit Crew animal rescue organization. According to Theresa Sumpter, the executive director of Animal Protection and Wellness Services and Detroit Pit Crew, there is a great need for a facility for treating sick and wounded animals.

Eastpointe is the best location for the animal hospital. It is close to Detroit residents who are in need of its services. The building for the hospital is large enough with parking space perfect for the facility and customers’ needs. For those who are looking forward to avail services from the new facility, it will be located on Kelly Road near Eight Mile Road.

Children of active military personnel and veterans enjoyed their time spent last Saturday on April 17, 2021, as part of Veteran’s Club Inc.’s spring Military Child Equine Session. This was the first therapy event of the club for this year.

There was horseback riding and the children who participated got to know what it takes to care for horses. “The children that we work with, their parent is suffering from PTSD or traumatic brain injury or just a lot of different physical injuries. Whatever we can do to take some of that load off, we want to do that for them, too,” said Jeremy Harrell, the founder of Veteran’s Club Inc.

The event was held at Taylorsville, Kentucky. If you’re in Shelby County and you want your children to experience the event, the second equine session will be held before the 4th of July.

In Midway, Georgia, a charity event in a form of sporting clays was held to raise money for service and therapy. The host of the event was SD Gunner Fund, a nonprofit. Britnee Kinard, Founder and CEO of the non-profit, said, “We started our organization to assist members who had service animals and it sort of grew into training and providing and doing a lot more within the community over the last few years.”

The event, which included live auctions, shotgun raffles, and working dog demonstrations, raised somewhere around $10,000. It costs a lot to train one service dog. But with the money raised, a veteran or a child with special needs will be able to get one for free.
