A community featuring uplifting and wholesome news stories that overlook deeply ingrained systemic problems.
The rules:
1. Your post must be an unironic presentation of a wholesome story, but one that overlooks systemic failures that made the story possible in the first place. In other words, we want posts that highlight "Yay, the problem is solved!", but ignore "Wait, why was this a problem in the first place?" at the same time.
2. Re-posts will be removed at mod discretion.
3. Sitewide rules apply. Basically, (a) don't be a dick; (b) use the NSFW tag; (c) no spam; (d) don't attack people; and (e) don't abuse the report button.

My dog loves when people tell her stories! It's less about the content and more about the interaction. The book is totally for the child's benefit so they can learn to read.
This made me imagine a TV show where a kid reads to their dog but the dog understands and is imagining themselves as the book's main character and every week we get a new story starring the dog.
There’s also the bonus of showing kids that good dogs come from shelters and not just breeders, and definitely not from puppy mills. These kids will remember this when it’s time to get a dog.
