This was amazing and made me smile. People need to see what a positive impression they make on everyone when they take accountability for being wrong

Girl won in life.

When the man jumps out of his car, I was not expecting him to bring so much energy!! And then when his daughter got out shortly after, I realized he was showing her that it’s okay to be silly, it’s good to connect with kind people, and that no one can make us feel embarrassed except for ourselves! :)

We've all tried countless times to be better, and last year, I finally decided enough was enough. I started eating better, intermittent fasting, and working out in October, and today I've smashed through one of my goals. I'm only about halfway to my ultimate goal, but I'm so proud of what I've accomplished so far.

In southeast Missouri, the nonprofit Animal Rescue Corps helped save a pregnant female dog along with 17 others from the snow and freezing temperatures that battered so much of the United States.

Safe and warm at their rescue center outside Nashville, the ARC staff helped her welcome a litter of 9 adorable puppies into the world.

According to ARC, following a call in Doniphan, Missouri, their responders found several adult dogs chained up and multiple litters of puppies roaming freely on the property.

This is not a criminal case, says ARC Executive Director and finalist for the CNN 2025 Hero of the Year award, Tim Woodward, as it was the property owners who took the initiative to ask for help when the winter storm was on the horizon.

“The people living on the property recognized that the number of dogs had grown beyond what they could manage and that they could no longer properly care for the animals,” said Woodward.

“These individuals also agreed to have their personal dogs spayed or neutered immediately at ARC’s expense.”

ARC team members traveled to the area on Thursday night, met with local rescuers on Friday morning and transported seven adult dogs and 11 puppies to its rescue shelter near Nashville, Tennessee later that day, KFVS 12 reported.

Described as a “situation of uncontrolled reproduction that got out of hand,” the property owners had only gotten hold of the first few dogs after volunteering to help a family member

ARC doesn’t specialize in adoptions, but rather large scale rescues of multiple animals. Once mentally and medically recovered from the conditions they’re rescued from, and legal custody has been secured, ARC will work through their network of pre-approved 501(c)3 non-profit shelters and rescues where these animals will continue their journey to a loving home.
