If you pick up a starving dog
and make him prosperous,
he will not bite you.
This is the principal difference
between a dog and a man.
- Mark Twain
Sadly but true. Man will forget the good things people done for them. They take things for granted. But not for a dog. To add salt into injury, today I came across a news, of a dog's sacrifices for us, human.
Looking back, what we have done to help the poor animals? besides that they do taste good.
George, who had a heart problem, won fame after defending five children from the pitbulls in the small North Island town of Manaia a week and a half ago. The two pitbulls rushed at the five children on the street, prompting George to charge the much larger dogs as the children escaped.
The Jack Russell was badly mauled by the two pitbulls and later had to be put down because of his extensive injuries. The two pitbulls were also put down.
The SPCA medal is usually awarded to people for their bravery in defending animals.
"George was a very brave little dog who almost certainly prevented severe injury, if not death, to at least one of the children," SPCA chief executive Robyn Kippenberger said.
"It's truly tragic that he paid with his own life for his instinctive act of courage."
