People are not born villains; they are created by the people around them.

Social media is flooded with heartbreaking stories of careless drivers running over dogs. But there’s a debate here that needs to be shouted from the rooftops: why do we always point the finger at the drivers? Let’s pause for a moment and consider the bigger picture before placing blame on them.

How did this dog end up on the streets in the first place? It’s a question that demands answers. The owner clearly failed to keep their pet safe—so is the blame on the drivers for the owner’s negligence? Can we really fault drivers for being victims of bad pet ownership?

Taking care of a pet is just like raising a child. You don’t just leave them out running outside where there’s literally a million hazards. Pets deserve the same protection: keep them on a leash. Or better yet, secure them at home, away from countless hazards. It’s time we treat our furry friends with the care they deserve!

STORYTIME!

A motorcycle rider faced a life-altering moment when a dog suddenly darts into the street. In a split second, he swerves to save the pup, but instead, he becomes the casualty of this unexpected encounter. The result? A black eye that looks like someone punched him and injuries so severe he can’t walk for months. But who is to blame in this scenario? Is it the careless owner who let their dog run around the streets, or the driver, a law-abiding citizen with a clean no-accident record and a valid license?

ACCEPTING THE LOSS

Grieving the loss of a beloved pet is heart-wrenching, we’ve all been there. But that’s no excuse for looking for someone to blame to make you feel better. Drivers in our bustling city are just trying to get where they’re going. It’s an urban environment, of course, it’s prone to accidents. An accident is an accident, and it’s not entirely the driver’s fault.

Next time, remember: your pets deserve the same love and care as your children! The first rule of parenting is safety—keep them protected. If you’ve ever lost a pet to a vehicle, let that be a lesson for your next furry friend. And for those stray pups, that’s where the dog pound comes in—to ensure they stay safe and sound!
