Why adopting a stray dog is a sensible option
“Happiness is a warm puppy” – Charles M Schulz
Are you in search of a dog who is as loyal as a Golden Retriever, as smart as a German Shepherd and who can run almost as fast as a greyhound? Well, there is one such fine specimen in the canine world – the Indian stray dog.
Here is looking at why adopting the local stray dogs a practical option:
- Most of the imported breeds are unsuited to the sub-tropical climate, whereas the Indian stray dogs are acclimatised to all the seasons in the tropical zone.
- They follow you wherever you go and are your self-appointed bodyguards. Given the increase in the crime rates in the city it will definitely calm your fears to know that your faithful hound is just a step behind you protecting you from antisocial elements.
- Stray dogs do not have genetic health issues as opposed to pure breeds as they have been on streets for a considerable amount of time and used to harsh conditions.
