Work of art my A$$!

For somebody who spent the last few weeks moping and crying over a furry best friend who passed away, I find it UNBELIEVABLY CRUEL that some people actually thought it’s a work of art to put a live, starving dog on display.

Art is supposed to be beautiful. And I don’t see anything beautiful in such cruelty AT ALL.

It takes a great deal for me to cry, especially when watching films or short videos. But this one is an exception.

And as highly intelligent creatures, dogs can be trained to detect smells that are otherwise undetectable to the human nose. As an avid fan of the Animal Planet, I’ve seen how dogs are being used in the US for detecting diseases, prohibited food and other stuff from airport baggage, as well as concealed bombs and illegal drugs. Heck, they even help the police look for missing cadavers buried deep down in the ground. Read the rest of this entry »
