Taking care of street dogs
Among all the domestic animals in our country dogs are the most neglected and ill-treated. Everyday, both in cities and villages, we see thousands of ownerless dogs roaming in search of food. They live on leftover foods and sleep in any place they find. Sometimes people ill-treat them by beating or throwing hot water and during festival children tie crackers in their tails. This type of behaviour is quite unexpected from civilized men. Common public kennels (কুকুরের বাসগৃহ) should be made to take care of these helpless creatures. In these kennels we can train dogs to use them for our security. Dogs are companions of human beings from the dawn of civilisation and we should not ill-treat this faithful creature.
