dogs make news!!!

a fashion show for dogs, Pet-A -Porter was held in Harrods retail shop in london on wednesday. the annual fashion show that showcased outfits for dogs from acclaimed international Fashion Designers. the catwalks oops... shall we call, dogwalks, was done with pretty models taking the leads. but who won the admiration and applause this time. it was the pooches that stole the show!!!



What about the poor dogs that men call strays. born in the street with no home and food. they have tough lives and always go hungry looking for food, you know it is especially difficult in the city.

this week somewhere in the provincial ukrainian town of orzhitsa, a dog catcher open fire to get rid of these stray dogs near an open market place and shot a street vendor in her stomach. fortunately the vendor did not die but had to recover the bullet from her tummy. i think the dog catcher is carried away with his gun, spraying happily with his shots without consideration.

the good news is dog catchers could face charges for assault and battery as well as improper use of a fire arm depending on the results of police investigation.

then in australia, the muslim taxi drivers are refusing to take passengers that have guide dogs!. the dog is only doing his job to help people that could not see well by lending the eyes. well it has now becomes an issue as the people dependent of dogs for going places are rather unhappy. the dog has nothing to do with this tacky situation and neither is the dog involved in religion.

singapore is looking at grading pet shops in order to upgrade the services from pet shop owners. pet shop owners will soon have to tell buyers of dogs or puppies on how to take care of the new pet, giving the correct food, keeping it clean and healthy and training the dog, so it is no longer just making the quick bug from selling. this is welcoming to buyers but some pet shop owners frown for fear that they are graded below the straight A1 !!! you know it is obvious. it is an excellent move.
