i understand not everybody are animal lovers, a pet whether dog, cat, hamster or rabbit are a living being also, they breathe the same air as us and stayed the same planet.
We have to be a bit more tolerant and understanding towards the dogs as the owners should be responsible for their behaviour, just like parents are responsible for their child's behaviour. Like picking up the poo or pulling their dog away when they get excited etc are being considerate to others. All living beings should live in harmony, just like us, in a multi racial country.
As long the dog (big/small) are leashed, i don't see any prob with the owners walking them anytime of the day, as long there are no noise pollution at wee hours. My 4yo daughter will freak out whenever she sees a dog and i always tell her that as long as the dog didn't bark or bite you and is not bothering you, you shouldn't be afraid of them. Though i'm more a cat lover, i never shun caring for other animals. Some humans are worst than animals!
At least the doggies live a better life than cats here! The cats will even be culled by AVA just bcos some ppl can't stand the sight of cats or are afraid of them. They are animals and they can't control their reproductive system (constant meowing) until we sterilize them or they can't control their anger of their terrorities being taken over by another tom cat etc. You want to see lesser of them?? Sterilize them, raise funds or adopt them and this will solve the increasing population of the cats.
Can we cull those human beings who we hate too??
PS: I just wish ppl will adopt more than buying pedigree pets fm shop as there still are many stray dogs around who needs a loving home. Sames goes for other animals...
