dogs



Dogs are truly the most adorable creatures. They are men's best friends. Some are even willing to pay a huge sum of money to buy pedigree dogs from breeds like labrador, rottweiller, german shepherd, golden retriever, etc. but, there are other non-pedigree dogs that most of us don't really regard as adorable pets. They are referred to as stray dogs or even worse, pariah dogs. Not only we, human beings treat people differently according to classes and statuses, we even treat dogs the same way. Just like how poor people have richer soul and integrity, the same goes to these stray dogs. They are the one who diligently hunt for food no matter whether it is raining or burning sunshine, night or day, never willing to give up as the saying goes, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. They constantly get kicked and thrown stones at, but their hunt for food to ensure their survival never fades.

Yet, some of us regard these creatures as things rather than animals, and do not even have slight compassion towards these helpless beings that are not so blessed as their pedigree counterparts who get to enjoy the privilege of getting the best food and home to stay. We see them in our daily lives almost everywhere on the street, but how many of us have actually offered them food. These poor dogs might have not eaten for days, yet we would not even consider to give some bread or biscuits that we have to them. Some would even cast cruel look as though these creatures do not even deserve to live in this world. These dogs are not to be blamed for being born into this cruel world where people do not even care about their own species, let alone care for dogs. I have seen many dogs being left to die on the road after being hit by blind, inconsiderate, reckless drivers and hundred others who died out of misery from extreme hunger. It is our responsibility to not only serve mankind, but also these pitiful animals that need some love and care from us in order to survive in this ruthless world. So, spare them some love and you have nothing to lose.
