It's Raining Cats and Dogs


I was unwinding with a friend after we hustle and bustle with her wedding preparations in a wooden bench swing in Tiendesitas by watching these dogs. And we noticed that everytime the calesa passess by, they all stand up and bark at it. we laughed hysterically since we thought they were about to sleep in their glass cages, but evertime they hear the hoofs of the horse driving by, they all stand up in unison and make noise. It was pretty hilarious. I was entertained.

But looking at them in their cages. And staring at them more longer makes me more curious. I saw the stickes in their cages. I saw their breed, gender, and their birthdatess. It was disturbing that some of them are atleast 2 years old and are not yet adopted or bought from the pet shop (I think I am assuming that they'd be brought right away when they were younger and cuter..hehehe) Eventually I found myself annoyingly disturbed that I didn't realized that they are envious of the horse roaming around, while they're trapped in glass walls. Suddenly I felt a pang of pain and a rush of saddness. I felt ridiculous that I laughed at them.

And then I realized the store was being filled with people, I got excited that minutes later our hysteria and laugher we caught several groups and a family's attention. So I guess, we've done a good deed after all.
