Of course, many people reading this post will say: "What's the big deal? Well, he'll just sit in the street for 5 minutes. What will happen?" 😤
What can happen is this:
- 🚩 The dog can get stolen. Before you know it, it'll be gone.⠀
- 🚩 It can be harmed. And not necessarily on purpose. A passerby decides to give the dog something that causes allergies. And this can happen even in the presence of the owner.
- 🚩 Not all people like animals, especially dogs. And among them, there are extremely, no, EXTREMELY cruel ones.
- 🚩 It's stressful for the animal!
- The animal doesn't understand that you only leave for 5 minutes to go to the store.
- 🚩The dog can be attacked by another dog, for instance, a stray dog. Running away or being able to defend itself while on the leash will be hard for a dog.
Do not leave your pets alone. After all, "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed." This is Yuma's favorite quote from the book "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry😉
