Having a dog is truly one of the best parts about the human experience on planet earth. Man’s best friend isn’t just a nickname, it’s a fact. Dogs are the most loyal companions you will ever come across in your entire life. There is nobody in the world, animal, plants or humans who will be more devoted and caring towards you. Anybody who has ever had a good dog can attest to this sentiment. When it comes to having a great pup, there is no better dog breed than the Golden Retriever.
Golden Retrievers are one of the kindest, most gentle and perfect breeds to add to your family. Not only are they great with kids, strangers, family and friends but they are also the perfect friend to go on a hike with, climb a mountain or just about doing anything at all with. Every year they are consistently in the top 5 most popular breeds in America. The only flaw of this particular breed I can even think of, is they do tend to shed a lot, but anybody who loves dogs won’t mind a little extra layer of fur all over their house or apartment.
This brings us to today’s story featuring a pregnant Golden Retriever named Rio who was just about to give birth to her second litter of adorable little puppies! This wasn’t her first rodeo, as her first pregnancy went very smoothly with no complications, she gave birth to 5 healthy pups and was an absolutely fabulous mother to them all. However, when the Veterinarian examined her during her second pregnancy he realized very soon that Rio wouldn’t be carrying only 5 little pups. The vet told Rio’s humans that he could be totally sure but there was going to be much more puppies this time around.
He explained to them that because she was pregnant with so many puppies this time around, it was going to be very important for her not to get over excited, worked up or use unnecessary energy that she would otherwise need during the pregnancy, then during birth and then for taking care of so many of the soon-to-be puppies!
Louise Sutherland Rio’s Human is from Scotland and the vet also told her that not only would she have to make sure there was no over-exertion but also that Louise would have to be prepared to help during the actual birth of the new pups! Louise loved Rio as if she was her own child so she eagerly accepted the vets advice and was prepared to do whatever she needed to do to make the rest of Rio’s pregnancy and birth as easy as possible.
Finally after 63 day on the dot, Rio was ready to give birth to her litter as she looked around for a nice soft warm area to nest and give birth to her puppies. Luckily for Rio, Louise was already prepared with a fresh big crate filled with soft blankets so that she could be as comfortable as possible during the birth of this huge litter and also so that the new pups introduction into the world would be as warm, cozy and loving as possible.
Louise was taking her job as serious as she possibly could. She had gloves, mucus sucker bottles of H2O, tissues to clean the pups and mom up and to top it all off 9 collars for each new adorable pup! Each collar was also a different color so that she could keep track of which puppy was which because at such a young age it is truly difficult to tell them apart!
Louise wanted to document this whole birth because there were going to be so many puppies and she also would love to show the vet and all her friends! So she turned on the video camera right on time and the birth began to commence. As the birth proceeded, each puppy one by one was just popping out. The Golden Retriever mama ended up giving birth to a total of 9 puppies! There were 8 male and just 1 female adorable Golden Retriever puppies. As far as Louise could tell, the entire birth besides the first pup which took a bit of time to come out, ran smooth, she inspected, weighed and looked over the puppies and for all intensive purposes they all looked and seemed completely healthy.
Then she noticed something very strange about one of the puppies. He looked similar in size and weight to the other pups however this little guy was a very rare and special puppy with a very strange colored fur coat….

There is nothing more beautiful than the bond between a dog and their human. Many people admit that they are closer to their dogs and prefer to spend time with them over other humans. If you have ever had a dog or been around one you can understand why. They are the most loyal, loving and faithful companions anyone could ever ask for. Whether it’s a big dog that you can take hikes with all across the world or a small dog that is your devoted companion that you bring everywhere, there is a breed for every person and personality type out there. Today’s story is a bit of a strange and surprising one…
A man named Dan Tillery and his girlfriend Megan decided that they were going to take their relationship to the next level and get a dog together. Anybody who has ever been in a relationship knows that once you get a dog or cat together, this is a huge step in a relationship which brings you one step closer to marriage and children. This couple after thinking it all the way through decided that it was time to get a dog together so they could test out their parenting skills. The couple had just bought their first house together in Michigan, they had a lot of space and some land and figured a dog would be the perfect addition to the new house. Before they got the house they were in a pretty cramped apartment and although they wanted a pup they knew it was too small and wouldn’t be fair to the canine.
They decided to go to the Detroit Dog Rescue center and find the perfect dog to adopt and give a furever home! At the rescue center they looked at tons of dogs but one in particular stood out from the rest. This canine was an American Bulldog whose name was Sir Wiggleton! The moment they laid eyes on him they knew it was fate and this was their dream dog that would be perfect for their new home and family.
This dog had so much character and charisma and he always had this funny look on his face like he was smiling at something hilarious in the room. Dan quickly noticed that this happy and smiley pup was super photogenic. Almost every pic they took together became an instant classic. He began posting some of the pics to social media expecting to get tons of likes and happy responses letting him know how adorable his new buddy was. One photo in particular really launched off as the internet couldn’t get enough of the adorable pup and his new dad.
Little did he know these uploaded photo would bring a black cloud of contraversery he never could’ve imagined. First, he posted the photo on his personal accounts and thenthe Detroit Dog Rescue reposted the picture and in the caption said stated that after 100 days this amazing dog was finally adopted and they were sure this pic would “break the internet”. Soon after it was uploaded the pic went mega viral racking up over 100,000 like and was being shared all over the world. Dan was elated that he and his new best bud had become overnight internet sensations.
But the celebrations quickly came to a halt when a couple days later the police showed up at his house. He had no idea why they were there or what he did but this definitely wasn’t a prank and these cops were super serious. There had been a law put in place in Waterford the town he lived in, that banned owning pit bulls because of the perceived danger they could inflict on neighbors and neighbors pets. Even though Dan showed the cops the paper work from the rescue center stating that the dog was an American bulldog and not a Pitbull the cops just weren’t convinced.
They told him if he didn’t return the pup back to the shelter he could get a 500 dollar fine and actually be sent to jail for violating the town laws. Dan was completely devastated and people all around the world were lending their support. A battle between the law and the couple and animal activists from all sectors of the globe was exploding. Heated debates, anger and confusion were dominating the conversation. Inevitably the final verdict would be decided by a judge in their district court!

THIS Teacher Hid Her Secret Identity For Almost 50 Years! But After She Dies The Truth Is Revealed!
image via – youtube.com
There are some teachers in life who truly break through to their students and make a difference in their lives. Genevieve Via Cava was one of those teachers and she will continue to make a difference for years and years to come thanks to a generous act she set in motion shortly before her death. While it only recently came to light some seven years after she died, it seems that she had planned for her final charitable act her whole entire life.
For almost 45 years Genevieve Via Cava was a middle school and high school special needs teacher in the Dumont school district, located in Bergen County, New Jersey. She loved her life’s work and helping all of the students who passed through her classroom over the years. Even after she retired in 1990, she’d still make time to stop back in at the school to check on students and have a friendly catch up chat with her old co-workers.
It was during one of those chats that Genevieve mentioned to the school superintendent, Emanuele Triggiano, that she had planned on leaving the school some money in her will. She passed away in 2011, but it wasn’t until seven years later that a check for $1 million arrived at the Dumont School District’s Board of Education. The generous donation was a shock to everyone, not only because of the massive amount, but also because Genevieve had been so quiet, frugal, and unassuming.
According to Richard Jablonski, a close friend and executor of Genevieve’s will, she had grown up during the depression and knew how to save a dime anywhere she could. She never splurged on things like clothes or trips and when she went shopping, she’d go straight to the 70% discount rack and only buy items on sale at deep discounts. She refused to even buy hearing aids when she needed them and all that scrimping added up over the years, to the point where she had in excess of a million extra dollars saved up.
In the end, the money she donated is to be used to fund scholarships for special needs students who are going on to pursue postsecondary education. The large amount she donated means that the interest it generates annually will fund scholarships of $25,000 for one or more students each year. It was set up this way so that the money wouldn’t run out once it had been dispersed, instead it will continue in perpetuity, or basically forever, since it’s funded off the interest.
The school wasn’t the only beneficiary in her will, five other local charities were left $100,000 each. They included animal charities, such as the Ramapo Animal Refuge, and The Salvation Army. In the end, Genevieve’s gifts will truly make a difference for years to come. It also goes to show just how important learning to manage and save money can be.

Teenager Disappears For Over 3 Years Then Shows Back Up At His House. But Things Aren’t How They Seem!
image via – youtube.com
Every year thousands of children are reported missing to authorities across the country, but thankfully the vast majority of them are soon found safe and sound. For the few ongoing cases that remain unsolved, police and families work tirelessly to keep the investigation active and leads coming in. All they need is one clue to help break the case wide open and it can come at any time. When one young boy went missing in Texas, his family could have never imagined how it would play out. It’s a case that has stunned everyone involved and it really makes you wonder how could this have happened?
This past June 13, 2019 marked the 25th anniversary of the date that Nicholas Barclay went missing from San Antonio, Texas. He was just 13 years old when he went to play basketball with some friends near his house and afterwards he disappeared without a trace. His family did not report him missing at first because they thought he had run away and would soon be back. He had already run away from home several times before and had a troubled history of behavior. The police had been called to the house several times after he’d argued with his mother and he would also talk back to his teachers and skip school.
It got to the point where he had a sentencing hearing scheduled to see if he should be placed in a juvenile home, which he was vehemently opposed to. The night he disappeared was the day before the hearing, which was another reason why his family assumed he’d run off, to avoid going to court. By the time a missing person report was filed, and the police started searching, the trail had already gone cold. There were few clues to follow up on and no one seemed to have seen Nicholas.
Three years went by with no leads until one day authorities in Spain called and claimed they had found a boy who looked like Nicholas. They said he claimed to be 16 years old and had told them how he’d been kidnapped from America and trafficked to Europe before he finally managed to escape. Overjoyed that the long missing boy had finally been found, the Barclay family welcomed him back with open arms.
From the start the family noticed that the Nicholas they had known had changed a bit. However, they’d also been warned that he’d been through a lot and so when he seemed to act and look different than what they’d remembered, they didn’t really question it. His eyes and hair color were much darker than before, which he attributed to his captors having dyed and medically changed them in order to alter his appearance in a bid to conceal his identity. He also seemed to speak with a French accent, but he told them he was forbidden to speak English the whole time and had picked up his kidnapper’s accent. Not wanting to upset and question him too much after all he’d been through, the family let their suspicions slide and tried to get back to normal.
One man who couldn’t ignore the obvious differences was a private investigator named Charlie Parker. He didn’t buy the boy’s story and noticed that rather than being upset by what he claimed to have gone through, the boy was incredibly open about it all and retold his story to anyone who’d listen. He thought it was an imposter pretending to be Nicholas and after studying pictures of the two closely something finally jumped out at him and blew a hole in the boy’s story. The person claiming to be Nicholas did not have ears that looked anything like the missing boy’s ears.
A person’s ears are like their fingerprints, uniquely individual and unchanging with time. Since the ears did not match up, investigators, the Barclay family, and police finally knew the boy was lying and could not be Nicholas. It turned out that the boy was actually a 23 year old French man named Frederic Bourdin. He was a renowned con artist who’d been nicknamed “the Chameleon” by Interpol for posing as missing children and stealing hundreds of different identities. When Spanish police found him, they’d made an offhand remark about how he looked like the missing boy Nicholas Barclay, and from there he assumed the boy’s identity.
Naturally the Barclay family was stunned and heartbroken when they heard the news that they’d been lied to and that Nicholas was still missing. They had wanted to believe it was him so badly that they’d convinced themselves it was, despite the obvious differences. Due to all the strange twists and mysterious circumstances in the case, no one knows for sure who to believe or what really happened.
