ON PEOPLE TREATING THEIR DOGS LIKE HUMANS

All the best from social media around the Territory

Many reasons why owners use a carrier (pram) for their furbabies. Old age, Leg/ knee problems, heart conditions. I use a pram when I go out with my dog, as I’m waiting for a full knee replacemen­t, so holding onto the handle bar stops me from falling over or losing my balance. However, she is walking next to the pram 99.9% of the time, she is only in it when we are shopping as people don’t look where they are walking with their head down looking at the mobiles or pushing the shopping trolley, she gets trodden on or knocked. So, yes, I use a pram. April Peterson

Says who.... my dog is a member of our family. If she needs to ever be in a stroller, I will get her one. Sheridan Prince

If it is old or incapacita­ted, it is a cheaper and readily available option to ensure your best mate doesn’t miss out on life just because his/ her legs don’t work so well anymore Caitlin Effemey My dogs are better people than a lot of people I know! Justin Goodwin

You’re right, dogs aren’t people, they’re better than people. Jade White
