Thank you for taking us for another beautiful walk trough paradise! I only wish I was there and I also I could feed that poor dog! However, it's strange that most of the others seems well taken care off. Nevertheless, your photography is outstanding! I really love that tree; great capture!!! 🌴💙🌴

Thanks! Yes, even the well taken care of dogs had freedom to roam it seemed. It was heartbreaking to see the strays, or those not taken care of!
You are most welcoem my Dear. And yes, it must be nice for the dogs to have so much freedom on on hand, but seeing starved ones on the other. I don't understand hwy people don;t out food out for the stray dogs. I am sure that would't make a big hole in their packet!
Most people there are quite poor though, and I think what happens is that they can’t afford the vet’s bill to get their dogs sterilized, so they end up with a houseful of dogs. The island government is trying to help, and most people are willing to pay a share. I heard that the vets are not willing to accept the 2/3 payment, so that they too contribute. But that’s only through the grapevine. I don’t know all the facts.
Ohhhhhhhhh! I see! I know that is very common problem in most developing countries and islands. Very sad!
Sad though. None was aggressive. Every dog we saw was sweet and gentle. So, I guess they are not otherwise abused by humans. :-(
That's good to know.............I just wish there would be some charity to neuter them and to feed them!
I know. The population of the entire island is only 289,000 spread out over 6 villages and a few scattered houses. I do know someone there who is fighting to get something done, though!
