Organizations helping in Ukraine.

Hello, We want to take a brief reprieve from our regular updates to share some resources of shelters, rescues, and humanitarian organizations that are working hard to protect our friends in Ukraine as this crisis continues to escalate. As a nonprofit animal rescue, our hearts weep when we see what is happening to parallel organizations in Ukraine. We know many of you see what we see – humans and animals in crisis – and want to help. If you'd like to donate to help the heroic efforts of these people who are facing danger while they protect their communities, two-legged and four-legged alike, please read below: Shelter Ugolyok: a nonprofit animal rescue and sanctuary in Ukraine focused on rescue and rehabilitation of animals. They are collecting donations to build a food supply to sustain the hundreds of animals in their care while prices skyrocket due to shortages. UAnimals: a Ukrainian animal rights organization fighting to rescue animals that have fallen victim in the midst of the ongoing war. They are collecting funds to purchase food to help sustain shelters in need. Happy Paw: a nonprofit organization that helps more than 60 shelters throughout the territory of Ukraine. They are checking in with shelter conditions and building a list of each shelter's urgent needs. World Central Kitchen: an organization serving thousands of hot meals to Ukrainian families fleeing home as well as those who remain in the country  🇺🇦 Share Tweet Forward Stay Connected!

Barking

Sadly, irresponsible owners commonly don't do anything about their dogs' barking. Government jurisdictions also commonly fail to address the issue effectively. Barking that disturbs neighbors is an increasing problem due to overpopulation of humans, and overpopulation of their domesticated pets. The disturbance from barking can affect people's heart health, property values, and more (see Barkingdogs.org).  Even though irresponsible owners probably won't read it, an Animal Control Officer in Sanford ME Lauren Masellas explains: "The barking dog next door might be trying to tell you something"
