DOGS ALSO NEED CARE
Support A1+!If you have a dog or a cat you can register it in the Animal Lovers Club for 2000 drams, where the animal can enjoy the services of the Club – medical treatment, surgery, upbringing, hair dressing.
1000 animals are registered in the Club at the moment. The Club does not get financial assistance from the government and survives on the income from the zoo stores founded by the mentioned Club.
“Our level regarding this issue is very low. If kinology, science about dogs, is developed in a country then the country is considered developed”, said Violeta Gabrielyan, head of “Stork” Club to A1+.
She thinks that if the social conditions were better in Armenia, many would keep animals. “There is a certain class in Armenia that hardly survives. How can they keep a dog?”
Many dogs were operated on for suffering from cancer. The surgery proved that one from 100 dogs died after surgery. They lived on their natural life after operation. The aim of the Club is to protect dogs.
Violeta Gabrielyan says that the Club cannot afford organizing exhibitions of dogs since they need to invite experts from abroad and that demands great expenses.
By the way, they intend to organize an exhibition to find sponsors. During the exhibition the animals will compete in their behaviors, hair cuts etc.
