I have a pet dog and I am absolutely unafraid to say that dogs have been by far the most loyal and loving companions one can ever find. 

Yes, they’re different from us, they care more about food and sleep than stressing about their tomorrow. For them, love is as pure as sticking around with their humans for better or worse. And there are times when they would bark unnecessarily (or so it would seem to us) into the night, but not like humans don’t ever do the same.

Except, the difference between humans and dogs is that, dogs won’t get up one day in the wee hours of the night to stab a human to death. Unlike this man who allegedly stabbed a poor dog to death all because he was ‘irritated’ with a stray dog’s barking.

A stray dog was stabbed to death by a man in Delhi's Kalyanpuri area. The accused has told the police that the dog used to bark often due to which he committed this incident after getting irritated. Police registered a case under sections of cruelty on animals, police said

The horrific incident took place in the Kalyanpuri area of Delhi and the police told ANI that, “The dog used to bark often due to which he committed this incident after getting irritated. 

Now, I get that barking can be frustrating. You’re tired, maybe you need a goodnight’s sleep and when you’re constantly irked by a dog barking in the distance, it makes you furious. However, there could’ve been plenty of ways to go about it, than to kill someone in cold blood. 

You can always call PETA, animal welfare organizations, animal dedicated NGOs and several other such organizations who are happy to step in and find a solution that would never involve killing them. And if nothing works, there are always earplugs. 

Today it was a dog tomorrow it could be a human.

Bilkul sahi kiya.
Animal cruelty pe bhi 302 ki dhara lagaani chahiye.

People on the internet, after coming across this incident, are calling the man a ‘psychopath’, and I wouldn’t disagree. 

After all, you need to be dead inside to be capable of taking someone’s life without flinching.  

One user even wrote, “Today it was a dog, tomorrow it could be a human.” Another one commented, “And we call them animals. Kaise log hai yaar.” 

There were so many humans barking from pedestals before elections, didn’t do anything to them?

There is no reason that can justify killing another, especially in this case where this pathetic excuse of a man, who probably had anger issues, chose to take it out on a being who couldn’t say anything back to him.  

Police have filed a case against the accused under sections of cruelty on animals, reported news agency ANI.
