Teen launches animal rescue to find dogs forever homes

 
We love feel-good stories about teens making a difference in their communities, and this one from HooplaHa is no different. Claire Fraise, 13, just adopted her first rescue dog, Lucky. "I know that without me, she probably would have been put to sleep," she says. "It feels really, really good to have made such a difference in a dog's life."
 
But Claire's foray into animal rescue doesn't just begin and end at home. She's started her own no-kill organization, Lucky Tails. Her goal is to save and find foster homes for 10 dogs this year, and double that each following year. As she herself has learned, there's nothing close to the feeling of giving a pooch in need a forever home. She tells her story in the video below...


Want to help? Plan a fundraiser at your school and donate the dough to a local no-kill shelter or start-up animal rescue, talk to your parents about fostering a dog or cat in need and consider adopting your next pet instead of going to a breeder.

HEY EVERYONE WHO CARES ABOUT DOGS
do you like to sew? if not, can you tie a knot and hold move stuffing from a bag to a pillowcase? if so, go to the website for your local humane society website and see if they have a busy fingers program. the program allows people to sew and create basic pet supplies like beds, bandanas, and toys.

I use my ipad a lot because i write my friends so i don't need to buy money for my phone the whole time. My mom thinks im addicted to it nd keeps taking it away! I usually find it after a while but she finds out and gets really angry and even talks about sending me away the whole time!
I just think shes overreacting bcuz i just need it for texting my friends and my friend's moms let their kids be on their phones alot...
How do i make her stop thinking im addicted and get her to give it back to me??
Thanks!

Hey girl, calmly and respectfully have a conversation with your mom and explain when and why you like to use your phone and see if you can come up with a compromise.  Make sure that you make some time every day to show your mom that you're not on your phone.  Keep it on silent in your room while you talk with her about your day or eat dinner.  If you show her that you can balance phone-time with no-phone-time, she might be happier to let you hold on to your cellular device.
