“People have forgotten this truth,” said the Fox. “But you shouldn’t forget her.” We will always be responsible for those we have tamed. And you are responsible for your rose...
“I am responsible for my rose...” repeated the Little Prince, so as to remember this well.”
From the story “The Little Prince” (1943) by the French pilot and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944).
The dog is the first animal domesticated by man. The stray dogs on our streets are not wild dogs. Their ancestors - in the first, second... hundredth generation - were once domesticated, i.e. homemade.
There is no such type of animal - a stray dog.
From Wikipedia: The wolf became man’s first companion, having “attached” to him in the Stone Age (10-15 thousand years ago). Geneticists have found that wolves were first domesticated by humans in South Asia. This is how the domestic dog evolved from the domesticated wolf .
From the domestic dog, man then made different breeds, including mongrels - which do not belong to a specific breed of dog.
Since childhood, we have known and loved the images of famous mongrels: Kashtanka from the story of the same name by A.P. Chekhov, Laika, Belka and Strelka - the legendary cosmonaut dogs...
... The human mother took her children to the balcony of the 15th floor, saying that they were going to launch airplanes, and threw the children down. One of the boys broke free and shouted: “Mommy, don’t throw me off, please!”, but she caught up with him and threw him out after his brother...
I keep thinking about the little boy begging his mother for mercy, and in the last seconds of his little life experiencing the most monstrous betrayal in the world...
... Last summer, a mongrel named Sarah and her puppies lived in the parking lot of the Asian car service center in Zlatoust. Because of this, she was wary and a little aggressive towards uninvited guests. Suddenly a white kitten wandered into the parking lot. Absolutely white, absolutely deaf, absolutely useless to anyone... No, he wasn’t torn up, he wasn’t thrown out...
They shared everything with him - both shelter and food.

And Sarah was killed on February 20.
She was sleeping in her booth, they woke her up... She escaped, ran to the owner's guardhouse... She was dragged out by her feet into the street and killed. In front of the owner... Killed by a local policeman.
...Over the eight months of 2011, stray dogs bit 3,756 Chelyabinsk residents, 1,896 of whom were children. Among the attacking dogs, 31 are known to have rabies. Cases of animal attacks on people are recorded in almost every municipality.
Only the introduction of a mandatory tax on keeping pets can increase the responsibility of their owners.

... In the courtyard of house No. 293 on Pobedy Avenue in Chelyabinsk, children from 5 to 10 years old, boys and girls, strangled animals, set them on fire, covered them with paint, hung... about 20 corpses of kittens and cats. The corpse of one pregnant cat was in a rag (it was wrapped so as not to be scratched), its face was burned, and its paws were broken ...
A little cruelty... let's take full revenge?
More cruelty, more... Give more! And we'll show it to the children!
And they will take it out on their own...
AND MAYBE THAT'S ENOUGH?!!!!
The problem of stray animals is:
1) They sometimes became stray and aggressive due to human fault.
2) This problem must be dealt with, because it threatens the life of the culprit - a person. But more often than not, it is innocent children who pay the price. Sometimes at the cost of life.
3) Federal law mandates the capture of stray animals. What to do with them next?
Shooting is not just a wildly cruel, but also a senseless method. The population of stray dogs is replenished very quickly; these are not Amur tigers or Indian rhinoceroses. Destroy them in one area and they will come from another. Moreover, the city is choked with garbage dumps.
What to do?
Several years ago, the smart people of Chrysostom suggested it to the others. In principle, this method was used at one time by European countries - catching, treating and sterilizing ownerless animals. They didn’t ask for money—they found it themselves. But they were refused. I'll tell you the reasons a little later. But this is almost a crime story.
Let's go back to the present day.
Why and who killed the good dog Sarah?
The owners filed a complaint with the prosecutor's office. As always, there are bad things behind bad people.
The unraveling of this story led to completely terrible circumstances.
Watch the Zlat TV story, and I’ll add it later
So, the tamed dog Sarah and other animals were killed with “Adeline” poison, after which the animal only experiences paralysis. This poison has long been prohibited for use, and there have already been legal precedents

After this, the animal, which is in absolute consciousness, is finished off... with heavy objects. In the 21st century, yes :'(
Second. Tamed dogs were killed more often than stray dogs. Because it's easier. There is evidence.
Third. Damir Galekbarov turned out to be completely off topic - veterinarian Vladimir Sikorsky did not ask for any investment from either the city or the region for the medical shelter - he invests only his own funds and subsidies from sponsors. And it turned out to be in vain (details later).
Fourth. Where did the 400 thousand rubles allocated “to prevent the capture of stray animals” go?
But Chrysostom is not the city of Evil. This is the only city known to me where the senseless and cruel shooting of dogs was stopped. Because the prosecutor's office intervened.
July 9 is the third trial in this case.
Details a little later.
