Pampered pets.

During my return from Nigeria through Paris, I was offered an opportunity to stay in Paris for more than four days with some of the officers of Taylor Woodrow in a place which had some connections with the company.
In the building where I lived there were 12 flats and 10 dogs all together not including the security personnel? Each morning and evening the lift fills up with greyhounds, schnauzers and one thumping great Labrador. Swaddled in wooly caps and layers of fleece, their granite faced owners lead them to a dog run a few streets away. There, in an area of size of a tennis court, the hounds frolic.
At first all seemed pitiable, how the dogs offered slivers of companionship in city of Millions strangers from all parts of the globe. It appeared rather very cruel to see how they raise an animal in this unnatural sophistication and comfort which dogs can hardly recognize and understand.
Then I met Jake, another Engineer from Siemens and everything began to make sense. I was astonished at how lavishly Frenchmen treat their dogs. They smoother them, like guilty parents making even dog fanatics of England look negligent. In the American designer boutiques such as Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein, dogs were given treats while Gucci began selling a cashmere dog sweater complete with designer Logo.
Pet chauffeur, a minivan service provided touring facilities to the dogs and all sort of treatments utilizing acupuncture methods, continuous sessions with psychiatrists and friendly visits to other dogs in places of England living in luxury kennels. They have also provided lessons together with the provision of expensive biscuits specially imported from Switzerland, and admitted to classes at a very high cost to be trained under experts in the trade who can understand even the barking language of the dog precisely.
I was wondering the depth of humanity among human as children and woman of Africa walk miles to fetch a pail of water and standing in long queues to obtain their daily provisions of dry ration, men and women lives not so much far from them are treating dogs like this. When I told Jake my burning heart of pain to see these activities he said “In spite of hunger and pain those people sleep peacefully in the night while these people in Paris cry in the nights without even a person to talk to them in normal human language”.
