‘Alcoholic’ Labrador becomes first dog treated for addiction

An ‘alcoholic’ Labrador became the first dog being treated for alcohol addiction after vets scrambled to save him and another dog hooked on booze that was left out by their dead owner.

A male puppy named Coco came to the Woodside Animal Welfare Trust suffering from canine alcohol withdrawal, which the animal shelter said was ‘a first’ for them.

The animal rescue in Plymouth, Devon, added that Coco, a two-year-old Labrador cross, has been with them for over a month, having required intensive care since arriving as part of his ‘tragic’ journey.

Poor pup, though I’m not surprised it’s a Lab.

What Is Our Military For? It’s not for diversity, equity, and inclusion.

That question should answer itself. But, in the current environment, that answer has become more and more obscure. The proliferation of top-down, politically motivated directives from the Biden administration detracts from military preparedness and saps the ardor and unity from members of our military. The effects can be seen in the current shortfalls in recruiting and the sharp drop in public confidence in the military.

New Batch of Classified Documents Appears on Social Media Sites

 

Secret documents that appear to detail American national security secrets on Ukraine, the Middle East and China have surfaced online.

WASHINGTON — A new batch of classified documents that appear to detail American national security secrets from Ukraine to the Middle East to China surfaced on social media sites on Friday, alarming the Pentagon and adding turmoil to a situation that seemed to have caught the Biden administration off guard.

The scale of the leak — analysts say more than 100 documents may have been obtained — along with the sensitivity of the documents themselves, could be hugely damaging, U.S. officials said. A senior intelligence official called the leak “a nightmare for the Five Eyes,” in a reference to the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, the so-called Five Eyes nations that broadly share intelligence.
