My name is Zidane and I am the
sister of Klose and Klinsi. Maybe you had the chance to read
their side of the story and learnt about the time of our rescue.
Yes, we were so lucky and we still are. But let me try to add my
part of the story to the picture so you will have the chance to
understand what can be done and how a street dog's life can be
changed forever. And, although I am a beautiful, healthy and
strong girl now - things did not always look that good for me.
That brings me back to my early puppy days.
Finding myself in a black plastic bag was quite an experience
and for a long time I really tried to understand why people
would do such a thing and dump young puppies just like that. We
just came to this world and we didn't do anything wrong. Just
because noone cared about us we were of course full of ticks and
flees, rather dirty, full of worms and our skin was infected
with bacteria of all kinds. But why should someone dump us under
another car and drive away for good? Are we worthless or do we
actually have a purpose and a value?
In the meantime I know that there is dignity in being a dog and
that we have a value as much as any other being on this planet.
We also have a purpose and we are not at all useless. Maybe
humans just forgot that we spent the last thousands of years
together. We protected you and we helped you with hunting and
many other things. But nowadays dogs are either pets or they are
dumped on the street. And we are not the only ones. Even the
buffalos and horses lost their purpose with the arrival of
modern technology. But do you have the right to cancel our
agreement without taking care that we still have a decent and
dignified life?
I have a home now, not a shelter and not just a cage but a real
home. When I was sick because I developed a dermoid sinus, which
is quite common for Thai ridgeback dogs, I had a difficult
surgery. There were complications after the surgery and Thomas
went almost every day with me to the vet and took care that
everything will be fine. During this time we grew together and
we are best friends now. That's why we hug and kiss a lot. We
dogs express our feelings in a different way but if you take the
time and look into our eyes you can see our soul.
Yes, I have a home and I know that I barely escaped the life of
a street dog. I don't have to sleep outside when it rains so
hard during the rainy season and I don't have to look for food
in garbage cans along the streets. I don't have to drink dirty
water and I don't have to fight parasites and infections. Noone
hits me and there is no reason to be afraid. I am safe here and
I can be a proud and confident dog.
Please consider adopting a street dog. There are so many of us
in need and you can't imagine what it means to have a real home.
Please! |
