Re: murder of dogs in jordan
I see groups of people in this country arranging to rehome dogs from other countries here. It's a totally pointless waste of money. The cost of bringing dogs here from other countries would fund saving more dogs already here. When they bring dogs here it only means that dogs already here won't get rehomed and will sadly be put to sleep.

Re: murder of dogs in jordan
There will always be those who get dogs who should never have them...they cannot look after themselves yet they get a dog.
There will always be those who feel that the best use of their resources is to bring into this country(at great expense) a dog from abroad....and to some degree I can understand them. They go on holiday see a cute unloved mutt and want it in their lives. I can see that in certain circumstances I could do the same. It is about choice. Owning an animal is as much like falling in love as....falling in love. For some people owning an animal is like choosing to have a baby and comes with very similar responsibilities...you take on an animal and you take it on for life. You take on its every need....some folk get it and do the right thing...others do not. However much we chew around this situation, it is never going to be solved by talking about it. |

Yes, that is my experience too.
I doubt that there are many owners do that now. It certainly is not evident where I live now...and hasn't been like that for many years. |
Re: murder of dogs in jordan
What a pile of sheeite, why on earth are you all bothering about a few dogs when we all know they would treat whites with even less humanity?
It's time we put some balls together to rid the world of the real pestilence. |
Re: murder of dogs in jordan
Yes, rid the world of them and leave the dogs alone :)
Another reason why you do not see dogs out alone much these days is due to how much they can be worth. Fido may be +/-£1k, not something you let roam the streets. |

I've had mongrels whenever I spent time looking after a hound, the only reason a dog should live is because it's owner (carer?) spends time keeping it secure and safe, not only for itself but for humanity. |
Re: murder of dogs in jordan
Less, because caring for another sentient being instils compassion and caring into humanity.

Re: murder of dogs in jordan
In the Middle East and Far East there are many dogs roaming loose - feral. They carry diseases, most notable of which is rabies, and they breed like rabbits or even faster.

Re: murder of dogs in jordan
And the humane way to treat this problem is to shoot them?
I suppose it is indicative of the value they put on any kind of life. |
Re: murder of dogs in jordan
I think there is a point being missed here. In general dogs are considered unclean animals in many Muslim countries, so that could partially be the basis for killing them. Cats by comparison are considered to be quite clean animals as they groom themselves a lot.
I can understand euthanasia for public safety grounds, but I'd be wary to say it wasn't an excuse to see off the western man's best friend. Take my musings with a pinch of salt though, to date I'm not really versed in Jordanian culture. |

Who has said that these dogs were a threat to human life.
Some of the dogs which have been exterminated were family pets. No attempts were made to find out if they were strays or pets. And if a dog is a threat to human life, then yes, it should be put down, but this should be done humanely. As I said,how we treat animals is indicative of how society and civilisation has fallen. |

This thread was about dogs in a Middle Eastern country - a completely different type of society to what we have here (still). From what level do you consider that level of society to have fallen? In UK, and some parts of Europe, I would say that the level of care and concern for all animals are second to none. |
