Firefighters Spend 2 Hours Freeing Hapless Raccoon From Sewer Grate: 'We rescue citizens both big and small'
When a civilian found a distressed raccoon lodged in a sewage grate, a team of determined firefighters spent two hours trying to free it.
An online travel company is searching for the perfect globe-trotting pup to review their hotels for a living.
The new position of "canine critic" at Hotels.com will give one lucky hound the chance to try out 10 of the world's most dog-friendly hotels.
There are just two requirements for the position: they must be a bone-a-fide dog and they must have a taste for international travel.
The top dog will be required to offer their four-legged insights on walkies, comfy bedding, pampering services, and top-quality doggie treats.
Together with their owner, the pup will post their hotel reviews on Hotels.com.
In exchange for their yelping reviews, the human companion will be offered ten travel vouchers for their various hotel accommodations.
The hotel provider recently published a recruitment video for the position featuring their professional doggie influencer, Dolly Pawton, reviewing The Curtain Hotel in London.
According to their research, the company says that reviews of pet-friendly hotels have increased by 62% over the past two years.
Following the surge, Hotels.com launched a new "Best for Pets" category in its annual Loved by Guests awards.
Liz Oakman, senior director and general manager EMEA from Hotels.com brand said: "We love our pets more than we love our other half at times, so it's no surprise that we've seen a huge increase in travelers wanting to take their furry plus one on holiday with them.
"At Hotels.com, we want to make sure you find the paw-fect place to check into, so we're excited to add a Best for Pets category to our Loved by Guests awards - but it doesn't stop there.
"Our hunt for a Canine Critic is our way of ensuring our pet friendly hotels really are up to 'scratch' with a four-legged expert's 'paw of approval."
Jet-setting hounds (and their humans) can apply for the role by following the company's Instagram channel, posting a picture of themselves and their pup, tagging @hotelsdotcom, and using the hashtag #CanineCritic.
Pet owners have until midnight on August 25th to apply for the job. If you would like to learn more about the contest, you can visit the Hotels.com website.
