I know you can't read this letter, but I decided to write it in human language as to remind humans about the debt we have to you.
Our common history spans tens of thousands years back in time, when humans were struggling with the harsh life of hunting and gathering food. At that time, your ancestors were proud and independent rulers of the great wilderness. We were gifted with intellect, but intellect itself was not enough to keep us safe in the hostile environment. We needed your senses, so we lured your ancestors into domestication.
Since that time, dogs have been one of the greatest advantages for us humans. You’ve protected us from wild animals, helped us find food, guarded our homes, and entertained us and our kids. You risked your life for us. Many of you sacrificed their lives for us, protecting us from danger. Even with your help, our life stayed quite harsh for thousands of years, so I am pretty sure we would not have made it without you.
Unlike you, we humans often tend to forget those who helped us achieve things in our life. So today millions of you are left behind, homeless, and unwanted. A great man and a dog lover once said, "The nation which forgets its defenders will be itself forgotten." You have been the greatest defenders of our entire civilization, so by this logic, we forget ourselves if we forget you. I promise to help other humans open their eyes, minds, and hearts about this injustice.
A thankful human
Near the village of Eremia, Bulgaria (where our production and warehouse facilities are), there is a rescue center for stray dogs. In this rescue center, few volunteers are struggling with the care of 200 dogs. These volunteers find food for the dogs literally day by day, and only their love to animals keeps them going forward. Dogs do not belong to streets or to rescue shelters – dogs’ place is with us, humans. We domesticated the dogs, and we bear the responsibility for them. I know there are people who would adopt a pet, but they don’t have the financial opportunity to feed it. So I bought enough food, and I would give 50 kilos of fine canine food to anyone who decides to adopt a pet from this rescue center. If you would keep your new house guardian in your backyard, but you don’t have a dog house, you will also get a dog house.
Together, let's change the life of these friends of ours!
