The organization's mission is to improve animal welfare and support pet owners.

They encourage donations, event sponsorship, and business partnerships to sustain their operations.

The heat and humidity have been downright oppressive at times around New England lately, and it's hard for humans to stay cool in such conditions. For dogs and cats, it's that much more complicated thanks to their thick fur and body development. Each summer, however, many pets come down with heatstroke, or even die, because they are left in a hot car - even for just a few minutes. Dr. Edward Schettino, President and CEO of the Animal Rescue League of Boston, talks with Nichole about their "Too Hot for Spot" campaign and offers some critical tips to help keep your pet safe.

Listen as Christina Powell tells us the story of Special Needs Animal Rescue League (SNARL). This SNARL is bound to make you smile! What started as a personal rescue of one wobbly German Shepherd became a multi-organization, multi-state/province, two-country machine that takes "red list" dogs from other shelters and finds them their forever homes. In other words, SNARL says "yes" to those who have been overlooked and placed in high risk situations due to their special needs, primarily neurological disabilities. Lee Ridings of Furgiven Animal Sanctuary joins us to elaborate on the collaboration of their two rescues to benefit the most dogs. As Lee says, these dogs may be different, but they are not broken. Each has so much love to give if just given the chance. Whether it's financial support, volunteerism, or foster/adoption, next time consider special needs dogs - they need us.Click here to learn more about SNARL.All social media is @snarlrescueClick here to learn more about Furgiven.All social media is @furgivenSupport the showDisclaimerFollow us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.MedcoVet (show sponsor) - the next generation in laser therapy by putting healing in the hands of the pet owner!

Welcome to the weekend!This is Stephen Colbert from the Gazette Digital News Desk, and I'm here with your update for Saturday, July 29th, and Sunday, July 30th, 2023.According to the National Weather Service, temperatures on Saturday will be mostly sunny with a high near 89, cooling to a low around 63 Saturday evening.Sunday will be sunny, with a high near 86 and cool to 59 Sunday night.5 more Iowa nursing homes added to list of nation's worst care facilitiesFive Iowa nursing homes have been added to a federal list of the nation's worst care facilities.One of the five is a Sioux City home that, after being cited for violations tied to four resident deaths, is now in the process of voluntarily closing.The five homes are deemed eligible for inclusion on the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' national list of “special-focus facilities.” They join five other Iowa care facilities already deemed eligible for inclusion on the periodic list of nursing homes that have recurring quality-of-care problems.The five Iowa homes that have been added to the list since April are Embassy Rehab and Care Center of Sergeant Bluff; Aspire of Gowrie; Countryside Health Care Center of Sioux City; Dunlap Specialty Care Center; and Iowa City Rehab & Health Care.Sheriff's office removes 39 dogs from Tipton shelterThe Cedar County Sheriff's Office removed 39 dogs from a Tipton dog shelter this week after receiving complaints of animal neglect at the facility.Sheriff's deputies executed a search warrant Wednesday at Just Dog Rescue, at 1707 Highway 130 east of Tipton, where they found the dogs living in unsafe conditions, according to a news release from the sheriff's office.The dogs have seen a veterinarian and are now under the care of the sheriff's office.No criminal charges have yet been filed, but the matter remains under investigation, according to the release.The sheriff's office was assisted in the warrant by the Cedar County Attorney's Office, the Animal Rescue League of Iowa, the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, the Tipton Veterinary Clinic, Cedar County Emergency Management and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.‘Dangerous' heat marks RAGBRAI's ride to CoralvilleThe 80-plus miles with 2,881 feet of climb that RAGBRAI riders endured Friday on their trek from Tama-Toledo to Coralville was among the hardest for many — given the excessive heat warning that blanketed the route.Many reported “sagging” at some point during the nearly 100-degree day — indicating they rode part way before climbing in with a “support and gear” crew driving along behind or ahead.Others pedaled through — powered by tent breaks offering craft beer, pie, ice cream and pork chops — but were happy to find a final resting spot for the day in Coralville, which joined RAGBRAI in the anniversary game by celebrating its 150th anniversary alongside the ride's 50th.Campers set up in and around S.T. Morrison Park, where vendors, volunteers, and entertainers greeted them — including Bush, which cemented its rock-band status in the 1990s and took the main stage at 8:30 p.m.Some cyclists told The Gazette the long day bookending the long week might have them heading to sleep early — before taking off Saturday morning for a ride through Kinnick Stadium and on to West Liberty, eventually dipping their tires in the Mississippi in Davenport to wrap one of the longer RAGBRAIs at 500 miles.For more interviews with cyclists and additional RAGBRAI news, check out our coverage on TheGazette.com/ragbraiHave a good weekend, everyone.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Friday, August 19. Rainfall appears to be on the menu for Friday. According to the National Weather Service there will be a chance for rain in the early morning hours Friday, but it will become especially likely between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. When it is not raining, it should be cloudy, with a high near 81 degrees. The low is predicted to settle in at around 64 degrees Friday night, with more chances for rain Saturday morning. A “female victim” was hospitalized for non-life-threatening injuries after an errant bullet struck her inside her home early Thursday evening. According to a media release from the Cedar Rapids police, officers responded at 4:10 p.m. Thursday for a call of shots fired in the 1500 block of Bever Avenue SE. As officers arrived, they found “a female victim who had been struck by an errant bullet while inside her home,” according to the release. Police say the woman was transported to a hospital and her injury does not appear to be life-threatening. Police say investigators are processing evidence and interviewing possible witnesses to determine why the shooting happened and who may have been responsible. Police are also asking for witnesses to come forward and for anyone with security camera footage to reach out to investigators at 319-286-5491. According to reporting from the Iowa Capitol Dispatch, Iowa continues to lead the nation in puppy mills sanctioned by the federal government and is expanding its lead over other states. During the second quarter of 2022, a total of 23 Iowa breeders and brokers were cited for regulatory violations by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Missouri came in a distant second place for the number of violators, at 13. Iowa's second-quarter total represents a 21 percent increase over the number of Iowa violators cited in the first quarter of the year. Mindi Callison, executive director and founder of national animal welfare group Bailing Out Benji, said it's possible Iowa has drawn more scrutiny from inspectors this year due to the national attention generated by former Wayne County dog breeder Daniel Gingerich, who surrendered more than 500 dogs to the Animal Rescue League of Iowa after authorities successfully brought a lawsuit against his operation. According to the Associated Press, the Big Ten's new $7 billion media rights deal will string the conference's top football games across three major networks each week, creating an NFL-style television schedule on Saturdays.

The deals go into effect in 2023, expire in 2030 and eventually will allow the conference's soon-to-be 16 member universities to share more than $1 billion per year. The Big Ten currently has 14 members, stretching from Rutgers and Maryland on the East Coast to Nebraska across the Midwest, and covering some of the biggest media markets in the country, including New York, Philadelphia and Chicago. In 2024, Southern California and UCLA are scheduled to join the Big Ten, https://www.thegazette.com/iowa-hawkeyes/believe-it-or-not-big-ten-is-going-hollywood/ (adding the Los Angeles market to its television footprint).
