Dog rescued in Brooklyn (VIDEO)

Image
A chow chow trapped on a second floor window ledge got rescued by the FDNY. It’s a big dog and the fireman seemed a little scared, but he successfully rescued the furry pet to the delight of onlookers. I wonder, though, how the dog got there and where the heck was his owner. Anyway, good thing there are friendly firefighters out where he lives. I wonder what our local rescue would tell us if we called for a dog trapped on the ledge.

Goodbye Cory Monteith

Image
Glee’s Cory Monteith was found dead at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel in Vancouver, Canada. No cause of death has been confirmed yet but several reports say he died of overdose. Cory played Finn Hudson in the hit musical TV series. In real life, he dated co-star Lea Michele who plays Rachel Berry. Recently, Cory decided to admit himself in a rehab facility due to substance addiction. He completed his treatment in April. And I guess its from that fact where rumors about the overdose came from, especially that it’s his second time in a rehab, the first was when his family put him in when he was 19. This is sad. Glee will never be the same without him. Watch him tell Ellen DeGeneres the story of his Glee audition in the video below. Follow me on Facebook and Twitter .
