HoT dAwgs!

When I was a kid (are u asking my age? bad manners).. I always wanted to keep dog as pet.. but my mother never approved.. for she could never stand any animal leaving mess anywhere in her territory.. I being submissive child (no no not anymore) always obliged.

But recently (since few years) my liking for canines has suddenly revived, so much so that even a dirtiest of street dog appears to me cuter than Shahid Kapoor.
I feel like cuddling & hugging every dog I see anywhere.. no I am not talking about any breed of men. These (unlike most men) are faithful & very affectionate living beings.

Even my zodiac sign (as per Chinese horoscope) is "Dog" (may be that's where lies the deep roots of my penchant).

Or if I can remember well, what suddenly brought back my passion was when I watched MIB followed by vodafone advertisements... that sweet little "pug" has somewhere stroked old chords of my heart.. every time the advertisement appears on the TV screen I start doing "oh baby...cho chweet..muaah muaah muaah..", leaving Shilendra (my husband) feel miserable & frowning by my side.
To make the matter worse, there is a huge poster of pug at the entrance of my office (as vodafone's office is on the ground floor of our building). And everyday as I pass by to the staircase, I have to control my sentiments hard to be able to keep pride & grace of IT professional in place.

But I think what you avoid the most, follows you most.. for there's a Mr somebody (another animal lover) who sits adjacent to me... and has devoted his desktop's wallpaper & screen saver to pug... while most of the time he remains away, this angelic creature appears before me in full action.. his expressive eyes, gorgeous curly tail.. adorable wrinkled face (oh I just cant wait to get him).

Why life is full of tragedies.. I cant even pet him.. who will look after him while I am in office :(

"Cant we hire a full-time maid to look after my baby toy", was my question to Shilendra. "Not until u had married some rich prince of royal family", he muttered..(is that called garbage in garbage out?). Why they dont have crèche for pets too :P

Having developed fancy for these non-human species, I really sometimes feel pity for street dogs.. with no food & shelter.. they are abused, beaten.. mercilessly killed. MCD should either put them all in dog hounds (with proper facilities) or vaccinate them.. Just because they are not as civilized as humans, they shouldn't be left to face all sorts of maltreatment (what u guys think.. I cant talk serious).

There are 5-6 stray dogs in my lane.. once or twice I fed them.. and now they follow me long distance whenever I come or leave my apartment (make me feel like some VIP being escorted). And every time somebody unknown enters our street..they start barking. So they also kind of keep robbers, burglars away (they actually outperform the security guard of our building).

I truly believe given a chance these street dogs can make our country proud by joining Indian military (of course after being trained). They have lived life harder way and therefore are much more alert & deserving to be part of our army. They can smell drugs, bombs & recently I heard can help in diagnosing diseases too.

In fact dogs could have helped us to diagnose H1N1 virus in people.

Had Bush relied more on dogs, he would have dug Osama Bin Laden out by now!

Also only solution to India's problem of infiltration is keeping dogs as guard across LOC (with no offense to our Indian Army).

"Slum dog millionaire became hit by just using term "dog" in the title.

And see how Maneka Gandhi manage to remain in news.. yess just by loving dogs!

Finally Aamir khan was able to insult SRK by simply naming his dog as 'Sharukh'. Isn't it awesome?

Moreover, which rare breed of dog u have.. and how much your dog is pampered with designer clothes & accessories can actually define your class in the society.

And who can deny contribution of dogs in so many movies & fashion shows..

So, please guys start treating these poor earthlings with care & respect, just as we deal with kids, old people and physically (or mentally) challenged souls.

Oh I am so over-whelmed.. I will start crying (subak-subak) if I will write more.
