Dog owners are the only ones in charge of the image of their animals in society. Unfortunately, the actions of some uncivil people tend to appear more in the media and get more notice than the polite behavior of the majority.
It is lawful that there are people who do not accept living with animals because they have had scares in the past, because of the little information or because they have never had the opportunity to cross paths with a dog to know what they really are like. It may also be because you find feces in the street, you hear on the news that a dog has attacked someone, that you observe animals being somewhat “civic” in some way …
Owners, from the first second in which we take our dog out onto the street, must be aware of two things: that we are solely responsible for the actions of our dog and that ignorance of the rules that affect the possession of a canid does not exempt from guilt.
The social environment in which we live requires a chain of obligations that are given by the laws of the municipalities and / or the autonomous communities. Although it is difficult for us to do so, we must know the regulations of our region on companion animals and, of course, respect them.
We are not alone in this world and, although we love animals and although it is difficult for us to understand that there are those who are not enthusiastic, we must educate our animals, accustom them to other beings, leave clean the areas through which the furry, etc. We cannot see things from a single prism.
There are many people who do not understand this and walk down the street with their animal in a very uncivil way: “if someone is bothered by dogs, hold on; if the dog relieves himself in the park, there he stays. come cleaning services… “Do we think this is the way to go?
Above all, taking into account the bad image that many of the dogs already have in the cities, this attitude only increases this thought.
We will go with the leash to the area adapted for them
Another reason for this negative view is to take the dog loose or release him when we get to the park. It is something that all the owners have done at some point in our lives but it is not right for it. There are specific areas for recreation and games for our furry ones. If they seem insufficient or too small, we should try to speak with those responsible in our town hall so that they could put more. Those who come across, unintentionally, with our dog loose on the street are not to blame for this.
At Muy Pets we believe that dogs of breeds such as the American Stafford or Pitbull are not aggressive by nature. Bad education and / or lack of interest on the part of the owner towards his dog can lead the animal to have bad behaviors, behaviors that with their force can become serious problems for society. Many people can acquire one of these dogs to defend their property or thinking that they are buying a brave and strong animal and only want to enhance these characteristics …
This is why it has been determined to have to pay for a Potentially Dangerous Dog license and that people think about it before acquiring one of these canids for unethical reasons.
Our neighborhoods function thanks to the appropriate social behaviors of the people. We and our family, including our pet, are one more link in the society to which we belong.
We must not forget that the misbehavior of our animal is the consequence of something that we have done wrong (sloppiness, misunderstood affection, promoting bad habits …). The owner is responsible for what the animal shows to society, for its behavior, its excrement, its barking, grunting, biting. The rational dog owner is solely responsible for the irrational actions of his irrational friend.
