I also don't think it's fair on most of the dogs as they're mostly starving, many have mange or other diseases and all have to eke out a pathetic existence by fighting amongst themselves. They are a public health hazard and cause traffic accidents. No one looks after them if they get injured.<BR/><BR/>It's an unfortunate part of life here that Chileans have not the faintest idea as to how to care for a dog as a pet. To most (not all) Chileans, having a dog means either locking it up in the back yard and never, ever taking it out for a walk or even letting it in the house (what's the frigging point of having a pet like this?????) or leaving it out on the street and giving it a bit of food now and again. No vaccines, no neutering, nothing done in the animal's best interest. It's cruel. And it's better for pretty much everyone for these dogs to be taken off the street and sent to doggy heaven where they'd be much happier.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09900725715325926065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7198903954394494705.post-68792405994437454952008-03-13T19:06:00.000-03:002008-03-13T19:06:00.000-03:00again you and your anti-dog comments!:pvalpo = dog...again you and your anti-dog comments!<BR/><BR/>:p<BR/><BR/>valpo = dogs<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry, but it has been like that for ages and I'm afraid is not going to change ...Barbaridadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501536784423302995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7198903954394494705.post-69077641057955462782008-03-13T09:53:00.000-03:002008-03-13T09:53:00.000-03:00Anonymous:If it were, Valparaiso would be the seco...Anonymous:If it were, Valparaiso would be the second culture capital of the world behind only, of course, Buenos Aires...<BR/><BR/>Chileno-his daughter knows where I live so i don't think it's a wise idea.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09900725715325926065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7198903954394494705.post-77089331228577422112008-03-13T00:51:00.000-03:002008-03-13T00:51:00.000-03:00Give me an AK-47 and directions to that guy's back...Give me an AK-47 and directions to that guy's backyard and I'll boost property values in Valpo by 500%.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7198903954394494705.post-82065039010204762312008-03-13T00:01:00.000-03:002008-03-13T00:01:00.000-03:00"Mierda de perro no es cultura."
