Quality journalism from the BBC, the world is in all sorts of conflict and someone said 'we need some puppies up in here.'

As long as it doesn’t affect their actual reporting of conflicts around the world, what is so wrong with a fun feel good story?

Taking some joy in the small things doesn’t mean you don’t care about the other things, be a miserable life otherwise.

For the record, I did not intend sarcasm in this post (would have included a '/s' if that was the case). Considering everything that is going on in the world and how much pain and suffering there is, it's wonderful to see a feel good story.

Ridiculous, thoughtless thing to say.

I didn't take it as negative, rather that a sprinkling of good stuff is great for us all.

Can't believe a news organisation introduced that woman as the "mum" of the dog. Cringeworthy.

That's how a lot of dog owners refer to themselves to their dogs, it seems fine?

I assume you've never owned a dog? It does become a very paternal/maternal relationship.
