Sad Story

Yesterday, I went out with a friend that he told me a sad story. In one usual day, he met a friend at one of the neighborhood nearby his house and he saw a moving box in that person. Out of curious he asked that person what’s that in the dog and that person told him in that is a dog and he plan to throw it away. My friend was shocked when that person say that and with no emotion and my friend asked him why. He answer was : I am so sick of taking the dog and it was too naughty and troublesome to raise dog. It no longer fun to having a dog like the expectation. What kind of people will say this kind of thing? My friend take over the dog from that person and take back to his house and the sad thing is the dog should be in pairs but my friend only manage to save the female because the male one that person put it in somewhere far few day back and when my friend try to locate it, that male dog cant be found.  And the female dog body is all with wound and scar. My friend believes that person had been abusing the dog also. The good thing is my friend manages to get the dog from that person and now she is in my friend house.

I do not get the point here. Dog is not a toy. You cannot have a pet just for fun and when you feel bored of it and you just throw it away just like that. That’s the problem of nowadays people, people never think of consequence. Do they ever think about all the responsibility before getting a pet? I think they just think it is cute and they must have it and when they have it they  start to feel tired of taking care it and eventually just throw that into somewhere. It not suppose to be like that, animal also have feeling like we do, if you not happy, you can release your anger in many ways, why abuse your pet by hitting them or torture them? This society is sick. As a dog owner, I always advise people when you plan to get a dog, you must think about a few things:

1. Do you have the time to take care the dog, bath the dog, feed the dog?

2. Will you willing to sacrifice some of your time to play with the dog or bring it out for walk?

3. Can you make sure that you will be with your dog whenever he need you?

4. Do you really can take up the responsibility and have the patient to train and teach the dog?

5. Will you love your dog just like love your friend because you got lot of friends and the dog only got you as their friend.

I really hope people get the pets just because it seem cool and fun to have one as everyone is having one and expect the pet having good behavior without any training. Think before you buy and if can, don’t buy, adopt one from SPCA or PAWS. Help the homeless animal and it will love you more than anyone do.
