If you were a pet living rent-free with your owners, you’d be floating free of concern, too.

However, a viral Instagram video showed that this dog mom, Jennifer Berger, refused to give her British Bulldog, Eggnog, a free pass on her sister’s vet bill. In fact, Berge confronted her 8-year-old pooch, who was resting on the couch, watching her favorite show, in comfy PJs while munching on her favorite snack. However, it’s her response that will leave you gasping for air.Owner…

Jambo, pet buddies! That, in case you were wondering, is Swahili for “Hi!” And if you’re still wondering what that has to do with the price of dog biscuits, let me tell you about my interview last week.

Photographer Sophie Gamand has travelled to Dead Dog Beach multiple times over a year and a half with Chrissy Beckles, founder of The Sato Project, an organization that provides food, fresh water, vet care and seeks to find new homes for these animals in New York.
