Dog life




         ‘The dogs especially

         Like it.  Follow well .’








         My dog and I have a 5 –fold relationship .

         The first is when I lived in Jugong Apartment in Jamsil 3 complex and
         operated the Rose of Sharon tennis court . That day, I finished work earl

         y, came home, read a book, and went out late in the evening to buy some

         thing , when I heard the sound of a dog whining in a dark place next to t
         he apartment . When I went there, I saw that a dog was dying .

         The weather was so cold at that time that I went out wearing a thick coa

         t .  When I touched the dog, it was cold as if it had been there for severa
         l hours . ‘ Tsk tsk …. How cold was it … ‘

         I felt like I would freeze to death if I left it as is , so I quickly took off m

         y coat and wrapped myself in it . And I just felt like I had to save my life
         , so I picked up my dog and went to the veterinary hospital .

         It was already late at night, so it wasn’t easy to find .

         After searching and searching, I finally found a veterinary hospital at the

         entrance to the district market .  From what I remember now, I think the
         name was probably Dongdo Animal Hospital . I asked for treatment for t

         he dog there, and when I went back the next day, the dog was already d

         ead . The vet said, “The dog took some strange medicine , and it was t
         oo late to save him .” He said .  I told him the whole story and asked if

         he  should  have  brought  me  back  sooner  when  I  took  the  medicine  .

         “ Sir, while working at a veterinary hospital , I have never seen anyone

         like you take a taxi and ask for the location of the hospital late at night ,
         saying they would save someone else’s dog, not their own .” He said ,

         “As a doctor who saves animals, I am grateful . ” I still asked him to p
                                                                                                      QR
         ay for the treatment , but he flatly refused, saying no .
