I heard of yet another horrifying and shocking act of dog cruelty in Thailand, via the "Soi Dog" newsletter yesterday. This also concerned a dog being prepared for a particular 'dish' in a certain way. It is so shocking and awful it haunted me since, and I don't want to add to things by posting it here. BUT the dog was rescued, and he is making a slow recovery. Hopefuly he will continue to get better thanks to the care he's now receiving.
The GOOD thing is that there has been an animal cruelty law introduced in Thailand, which means that the police now have the power to make sure animal abusers don't get away with abuse crimes, as they did before this law.
So the person who was responsible for that act of cruelty has now been arrested and will face a criminal trial.
We are not powerless. No matter who we are, or which country we live in, if we care, we all have the power to be heard, and in many cases, to bring about change.
Caring and desiring to do something about it is all we need to start with. Changes are happening...sometimes fast, but sometimes slowly. But they are gradually happening.
