Homeless dog makeovers is a thing and we love it

Dog, as the saying goes, is man’s best friend. However, this seems questionable considering our track record of caring for our “best friends.” According to the ASPCA, nearly 4 million dogs enter shelters every year, and more than 1 million are euthanized due to overpopulation.

Yes, that’s a serious bummer; but this is Feel Good Friday, so let’s focus on the positive, shall we? For example, Wahl — the legendary maker of beard trimmers and other grooming products — has been supplying pet shelters with thousands of bottles of shampoo and all kinds of grooming supplies.

Most of the dogs that come through animal shelters have filthy, matted hair, and about half stay that way due to limited resources. As you can imagine, folks are less inclined to adopt pups that look like fuzzy garbage; to give homeless canines a chance at happiness, Wahl is helping these dogs look as lovable on the outside as they are on the inside.

Wahl is coordinating their efforts with the Greater Good Foundation, a charitable organization dedicated to making things better for pets, people, and the environment. You can see the results of this collaboration at the Dirty Dogs Before and After Gallery.

While you’re clicking, you might strongly consider adopting a dog. There are still plenty of pups that need adopting, and thanks to Wahl and Greater Good, many of them are well groomed.

In addition to making excellent grooming products for dogs, Wahl makes a great deal of grooming products for men. We urge you to check out some of their stuff and help support homeless dogs in the process.

Silo is currently in the middle of its second season, and the show remains one of the more interesting sci-fi shows on television. While the show's season 2 finale has not yet aired, fans are already wondering whether the show will return for another season.

Thankfully, Apple TV+ saw fit to answer that question, renewing the show not just for a third season but also for a fourth. The show's fourth season will also serve as its final. Graham Yost created the series, which is adapted from a series of novels written by Hugh Howey.

Get up to date on everything we know about The White Lotus season 3
Theo James and Meghann Fahy in White Lotus

When the first season of The White Lotus premiered in 2021, few could have suspected that it would become one of the best shows on HBO and Max. Even series creator Mike White considered The White Lotus to be a six-episode one-off story. But viewer response to this dark comedy show was so strong that White and HBO realized that they had a hit on their hands. That's why the series was quickly renewed, and the second season premiered on HBO and Max in 2022, just a little over a year after the first season.

The White Lotus season 3 was confirmed in November 2022, and fans have had to wait over two years for its return. Audiences can finally expect the series to be on their screens again shortly after the calendar flips to 2025. We're gradually getting little tidbits about season 3. We're sharing everything we know about The White Lotus season 3, which includes most of the cast, the theme, and the setting, as well as when fans can expect the show to return.

Will we be getting any more seasons of ‘The Old Man?’
The show faced a number of production delays during both its first and second seasons
Jeff Bridges in The Old Man

It seems like Jeff Bridges is on the run no more. The Old Man, which ran for two seasons on FX, has been canceled according to reporting in Deadline. The series followed Bridges as a former CIA agent who now lives off the grid, and goes on the lam after an assassin tries to kill him.

Over the course of two seasons, The Old Man faced a ton of behind-the-scenes issues that limited its ability to succeed. The show had filmed seven of its 10 episodes in 2019 when it had to shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic and later because Bridges had to be treated for cancer. The show didn't debut until 2022, but when it finally did air, it was a modest ratings success for FX, which is what earned the show its second season.
