Thoughts out loud about the most important things…

How often do we think about how quickly our lives pass? How many mistakes do we make? And what is the price of these mistakes? For example, we all love our dogs. We play, walk, and raise them. Of course, everyone has their own “love”. Everyone has their own attitude towards their pets. Much depends on living conditions, finances, and moral qualities.

Now I will say one very scary thing. Dogs are toys in our hands. Because they are weak-willed, and the whole life of a dog is a person. A dog trusts a person, gives every part of its soul without a trace and sincerely loves him.

But there is only one step from love to betrayal. A step into the void that a person takes without thinking.

And I am sure, I am absolutely sure, that only someone who has never truly loved can betray a dog.

Don’t say “you’re wrong”, “you don’t know life”, “anything can happen”. If you think like that, that’s your right. Help traitors “hide” behind excuses.

Want a real-life story? Here you go. Golden, 13 years old. Everything is fine in the family – everyone is alive and well, but they decided to give up the dog. They cynically gave her away to random people.

Yes, let’s say I know that these are good people and they will do everything so that the dog can live out its last years with dignity. But those who give the dog away know none of this. They wipe away tears, say something, make ridiculous excuses. Like, they have “circumstances.” Someone is giving birth, there is not enough money and time, allergies… But this is just nonsense! The former owners don’t care.

The dog lived with the family for 13 long years.

So much has happened over the years! The dog has become part of the family. She not only loves her family; she can’t breathe outside of that family.

I feel it when I look at the photo of a grief-stricken dog. The people who have taken her in and who are helping her say, “It’s so good that the girl is safe now,” “We are so happy.” But I can’t look at the photo without tears. The poor dog’s eyes – they are devastated. Yes, she is fed, she is cared for, she is loved. But she is abandoned! And that is even worse than death…

This is not just betrayal. This is the murder of an innocent soul. With bare hands, they tore a dog’s soul into thousands of pieces.

And there is nothing that can be done. All that remains is to join those who are glad that these NON-humans did not throw a 13-year-old dog out into the street, did not leave him to die in the forest or did not starve him to death at the dacha. What “good” people! In fact, these people did the equivalent of all of the above. I can find only one excuse for them – mental disorder. A kind of collective psychosis. Does such a thing exist?

No, not this time! This is a deliberate act! This is a fatal mistake. And these people simply spit on their dog. After all, a dog cannot resist. It cannot protect and defend its rights, it cannot demand. It will simply suffer. To the point of pain, to the point of despair.

And no matter how much love and care the new owners or volunteers surround the dog with, it will suffer. And the soul-tearing melancholy, like a dancing flame, will burn the heart. Every breath, every second will be full of anticipation of meeting those to whom the dog’s entire life was dedicated. But this meeting will never happen.

Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe the world is so cruel that you can’t think about the feelings of animals. You can’t, because you can go crazy from your helplessness.

We can’t change everyone. We can’t impose our point of view. We can’t feel everything that’s going on in the soul of a traitorous owner.

But we can be responsible for ourselves. We can and should understand all the responsibility when we take a small puppy.

We should think about the fact that our life can change, and that the puppy will one day become an adult old dog.

Our life flies by unnoticed. But a dog’s life is many times shorter. And we have no right, but we break the fates of the hearts that love us.

We need to stop! And dogs will be devoted to the very end to the one who once called himself a loud and beautiful word “owner”. And we must live up to that!

If all dog owners understood this, there would be fewer terrible stories of betrayal.

And, perhaps, the world would be kinder…
