It’s said and happy at the same time, I hate to see humans or dogs in pain, but these pictures do show us that even dogs are amazingly resilient creatures.

I am so glad that Japan has at least one shelter for people/pets. Asking someone to leave behind their animal in a time of crisis is inhumane not only to the person but the animal. These animals can provide comfort to so much more then their owners……

1st world,3rd world this earthquake didn’t care but thank heavens for all these dogs who comfort with just the quiet touch of a nose, head in lap or a wag of the tail. Who’s feeding the dogs?

I can only offer prayer for those people and the pets as well but there is no one more powerful than the one listening to my prayer! God bless you all!

I have been so upset bc up to now I have not seen many pictures of any of the animals being rescued or even being shown alive in this area! This is a blessing that the world is coming together as one people to help one another and our loving pets!
