My Christmas Wish
The Rottweiler's story also came out in the Johor Streets, a pullout of the New Straits Times.
Today I received news that the dog may be suffering from distemper. The dog was also dehydrated, underfed and has maggots around its anus.
Johor Baru Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) deputy chairman Dr Edwin Singam is seen here treating the dog at his clinic. It could only be confirmed tomorrow by the good doctor (I'm saying this with sincerity) whether it is distemper, a serious viral illness.
Enforcement officers from the Johor Veterinary Department ordered the Rottweiler's owner to surrender the dog to them today. After that, the dog was handed over to the SPCA, and a dog lover named Harvey has offered to pay the medical bill.
Another SPCA member had, a few months ago, gone to the house and spoken to the owner. The owner said he loved the dog, but his wife wanted the dog to be chained up all the time. And since the dog had a home unlike some homeless dogs, we thought the dog would be okay.
I wish I had done more for this dog before it came to this.
Kudos to Dr Edwin Singam and Harvey and the enforcement team from the State Veterinary Department. At least, the dog had been rescued. Now, let's pray that the dog will be able to get through this.
If you notice any form of animal cruelty, do not keep quiet. Act swiftly.
But no cruelty can beat this kind of cruelty "Chinese police beat stray dog to death in front of its owner" A barbaric and uncivilised group of lunatics. The human race is becoming a disgrace. Please don't be like them.
Don't be like me either, "all talk and no action".
Be like Dr Edwin Singam, Harvey and all those who actively took part in the rescue of the Rottweiler.
