The dogs are domestic animal. He is found all over the
world. There are more than one verities of dog- some are small as cat and some
are as big as calf.
Dogs are trained for fighting and hunting. Dog fights are
popular all over the world. The hunter sets him after the game and watches the
scene from a distance. He catches the prey with surprising agility. Men also
keep him to guard the sheep and goats. If any beast, such as wolf or jackal happens
to come there and tries to steal sheep or goat, he attacks so violently that
the beast can’t help slipping away. Most of the poultry farm owner keeps him so
that the cat and other beast may not steal any chicken from the poultry farm.
The dog
acts upon the very gestures and orders of his master. He recognizes the friends
and foes of his master. He keeps awake all night and if the thief breaks into
house, he attacks him and makes him run away. When he sees a beggar, a postman
or suspicious fellow, he barks at him. But he doesn’t bark or snarl on his
master’s friends or family members. Even the slightest sound can wake him up
from sound sleep.
Many
dogs have saved the lives of their masters; and many dogs have died saving by
sitting and defending the dead bodies of their masters, without eating or
drinking anything. Dogs have saved men from drowning. In the North Pole, they
dig out men buried in the snow. Dogs hunt for themselves and their masters. The
flesh of dog is eaten in China.
There
are many wonderful stories told about the dog’s bravery, faithfulness and
intelligence, and sacrifice. I am going to narrate two stories.
It is
said that once a man had a dog. The man was away and his baby was sleeping in
the room. As the dog was eddying to and fro, a wolf happened to come there and
kill the baby. He attacked the wolf so bravely that the wolf kissed his death.
When the master came home and found the dog drenched with blood, he fancied
that the dog must have killed his baby. He drew the sword and cut his head off.
But when he came to know that the baby is safe and sound and the wolf was lying
dead, he cried for his dog in vain.
Another
story of the dogs’ loyalty is told as thus: A king’s soldier had a dog. Another
soldier was nursing a Grudge against him. And when he was passing through a
jungle, he appeared and killed his master. As the dog was far behind, he could
not help his master and sat near his dead body of his master. The king finding
that one of his soldiers was missing sent his men in every direction. They
found a dead body and a dog sitting beside him. They buried the corpse and let
the dog free. Once a fair was held in which the murderer of the dog’s master
was also present. When dog saw him, he began to bark at him. The people not
knowing the case drive him away. He barked and barked at him more ferociously.
At last the case was sent to the king. The king enquired the reason for dog’s
barking at him, but the man didn’t tell anything. After long investigation the
man pleaded guilty and was hanged to death by neck till his death.
We can
conclude the discussion by saying that the dog is a very loyal pet and it is
extremely beneficial to keep him, provided it come from a good species, and it
is not a street dog. Also when the dog suffers from rabies. He has to be killed,
of course.
