JACKIE THE JACK RUSSEL TERRIER
Last weekend someone from Teluk Pulai, Klang called to say that his neighbours had 'discarded' their Jack Russel Terrier. They had simply opened the gate and shooed the dog out. The poor fellow had returned home only to be chased away again by the maid. The man, who called us, took the dog back to the house but was told that it was not theirs. This in spite of the man being a neighbour who had seen the dog at the family home on many occasions. Jackie is now at our panel vet and will be neutered today and put up for adoption this coming Sunday. We are shocked over the spate of abandonment that has been ongoing in recent times. How can people be so brutal?
"Animals are now more than ever a test of our character, of mankind's capacity for empathy and for decent, honorable conduct and faithful stewardship. We are called to treat them with kindness, not because they have rights or power or some claim to equality, but in a sense because they don't; because they all stand unequal and powerless before us."- Matthew Scully in Dominion
I am a nice doggie who lives in Klang with my mummy Lily and sister Shalini Kiki-Mae as well as my human companions. I am also the official representative for the Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better project which is a canine welfare initiative spearheaded by non-profit outfit Community Developement and Integration Initiative (CDII). I enjoy my job but wish I could participate in protests and rescue missions as well. However, my human tells me that I best stay back and manage this blog. Sigh!

it's just too much!
I hope their kids shoo them away when they grow old. Morons.
