Dog Abuse

DOG ABUSE
Do you know what has happened within only January? In the very fact there were already fifty-three cases of dog abusing in Singapore and it was only a month! Most of which were events where the dogs were kept very poor conditions. There were also cases where the dogs had been abused till it died. 

There was a man who had bashed a Pomeranian repeatedly till it died. Guess how much the reward to capture this man is. It was $16,000. Can you imagine yourself in that dogs shoes, to have been thrown against a wall repeatedly until blood gushes out your head. What a sad death. 
 There was another case whereby a man had continuously hit and hurl his dog at a wall, whilst trying train it to stand on its hind legs. Now the best part is which fool would post such a gruesome thing on Facebook? The video had even lasted fifteen minutes long.

There is also another case of extreme dog abuse in Utah, where a dog was fund in box. The dog’s ears, eyes and throat glued with PVC glue, it’s legs had a huge amount of fractures. And this Labrador dog or puppy was only sixteen weeks old when it had to be euthanized! What sort thing did the dog do to get such inhumane treatment? So why do the perpetrators of such a crime get to run around scot-free? 

What is worse is that we have such horrific cases within Singapore as well. For instance in STOMP!, a man had bashed up a dog relentlessly with a metal chain. After being stopped by a foreign worker, the dog was sent to the hospital. It’s face was heavily disfigured and had many lumps and dead skin. It turned out that it’s upper jaw was broken. Though it survived in the end ( but still is in a critical condition) , will the dog be ever to feel the warmth of a home or will wait till it is put to sleep after being in a locked cage?

  So what do these examples tell us? Dogs are such loyal companions and yet we, the humans who domesticated them, created a bond with them can do such things to a creature which loves us. In Singapore, there 933 cases of animal abuse. The dogs make up the majority. So, please, keep your house in proper hygiene for our furry friend. Don’t tie nor cage them up at home, please feed it, give it water, take care of it and be gentle. Don’t vent your anger on them no matter how mischievous they are and don’t get a dog because everyone has one, get one because you care.
