When a dog gets old, will you hate it for being useless?
Yesterday, veterinarian Xiaoming saw a small story on the Internet: a 10-year-old golden retriever lying on a road full of snow, has been looking around confusedly, as if expecting and looking, it is very uncomfortable to see.
On this day, a stray animal rescue organization in a certain place received a call for help, saying that in the snow somewhere, there was a golden retriever lying on its stomach, and it seemed that it had no desire to survive, and it did not know what had been experienced.
Under normal circumstances, even if it is a stray dog, it will find a warm place to place itself, not to mention the golden retriever, its IQ is so high, how can it not know this truth, can only say that its desire to survive is very low.
After the staff listened, they did not think too much, and they wanted to go to the address to see the specific situation, after all, such a cold day, people can't stand it, let alone dogs?
When it reached its destination, it was found that the golden retriever was still lingering in the same place, only to see it looking around confusedly, as if it was looking for something, but did not know what reason, causing it to never move, just watching in the same place: Where is my master?
With the experience of the rescuers, they could see at a glance that this was an elderly golden retriever, and although they did not know why they appeared here, the rescue work was urgent, and they quickly took a blanket to cover it.
Veterinarian Xiaoming saw this scene, really too hard, the golden retriever has always appeared in his mind lively and active side, and the contrast with this dying golden retriever at this time is so big.
Subsequently, everyone sent it to a nearby hospital for examination, and it was not surprising that it had many problems with its body, and deduced that it was about 10 years old.
The doctor said that in addition to the frostbite of the limbs, the golden retriever also found that there were many sand grains in its stomach, hearing this, everyone's eye sockets were moist, and it turned out that during this time, it relied on eating sand grains to resist hunger.
Surrounded by this group of strangers, the golden retriever did not behave aggressively, still very docile, and it was clear that everyone was helping it.
Later, the doctor told the volunteers that even if the disease on the golden retriever could be cured, its life was coming to an end, and it was already old, still hungry and frozen, causing fatal trauma to its already windy body.
However, everyone is not willing to give up on it like this, since they have met, they cannot watch such a life pass, take one step at a time.
Veterinarian Bob didn't know what the specific reason for the golden retriever's wandering was, because he had seen more and more practices of abandoning or selling dogs when they were old. I really can't understand, how can dogs who have been raised for so many years be willing to throw them out of the house?
For the owner, you may be able to change a dog, but for the dog, the owner is their life, losing the owner and losing the home, I am afraid it is more uncomfortable than losing life, right?
So I hope that everyone can cherish the moment when the pet is around, and since it is raised, it is responsible for the end.
