Only six hours after being adopted from the Highland County Dog Pound in Ohio, Hercules chased a burglar out of the house and over the back yard fence.

Animal Planet's Saved series starts up again tomorrow at 8:00 PM and returns regularly each Monday at that time. The show highlights stories of how us dogs and other pets have helped transform people's lives for the better, sometimes in their darkest hours. Some of these stories seem miraculous, but us dogs know there is a special connection with our human friends. We can sense danger when you can't, understand your feelings when words can't possibly convey meaning and support you with a furry shoulder through the very best and worst moments of your life. We do this because we love you!

We've reported on poop-and-runs in the past, but this is the first time we've seen a slick (and howling funny) marketing campaign. In this case, ScoopPoop.org produced the video below as a public service announcement "to help raise awareness about how cleaning up your dog poop will improve water quality in Puget Sound."

The video follows a young lady and her dog walking through Seatown and the Puget Sound. According to the lyrics, "The girl and her dog, they were fine (wow) - Until they left a doodie, that's a crime (bow wow)."

So what is the moral of the story? Well human, if your furry friend "drops a deuce," then you've got to bag it up!
