Man’s best friend

So many of you shared your heartwarming stories of how the simple act of saving a homeless puppy has changed your lives.

Here are just a few of the now-pampered pooches that were lucky enough to be either found or adopted from a shelter. To view all of the pictures we received, visit our website at www.vindy.com and click on the “Man’s Best Friend” banner.

Let’s make a real splash for next month’s topic. Whether it’s perfecting your cannonball in the pool or simply running through the backyard sprinkler, show us how are you staying cool this summer.

Send us a picture for our “A Splash of Summer Fun” feature. We’ll publish a few of the ones we receive in our Aug. 7 edition, and they’ll all be posted on our website.

E-mail a large jpeg file to society@vindy.com or mail your picture to Snapz, The Vindicator, P.O. Box 780, Youngstown, OH 44501. Include the names and cities of residence of everyone in the picture.

The deadline is Aug. 3.
