are these people dumb or wat? animals deserve better treatment than to be treated like fashion accessories..
Pet shops have seen a spike in the sale of dogs the last few weeks as many prepare to celebrate the Lunar Year of the Dog, but this is alarming news for some animal lovers. Dogs make up over one quarter of the over 800 animals that SPCA gets every month; every week, more than 40 dogs are put to sleep. Ms Deirdre Moss, executive officer of SPCA, said that the adoption figures have gone down lately. She urged potential dog buyers not to buy dogs purely because it's the Year of the Dog. And there seems to be a trend: SPCA says 625 rabbits were abandoned after the Year of the Rabbit in 1999, a 116 percent increase over the previous year.
