The Wolf - ancester of the domestic dog

This site aims to provide Singaporeans with the basic knowledge needed before becoming a dog owner. Dogs are not toys, dog breeds were not developed over hundreds and thousands of years just to be somebody's pet in hot humid Singapore. Never choose a puppy based on physical looks. Help save lives by adopting homeless dogs instead of buying. And don't forget to sterilize your dog.

We condemn Dog-eating in China, Korea, Indonesia & Vietnam

Below are sent in by the dogs' humans to be appreciated by everyone. They are not for adoption. We welcome you to send in your dog's picture too. Let's all celebrate their existence, beauty, loyalty, genuineness, innocence, perfection and love!

Over 19,000 dogs and cats are abandoned each year. That is over 52 pets a day! This does not include the countless ones not in the statistics - those thrown away by irresponsible and heartless people in Lim Chu Kang and elsewhere to be left to their own fate. The majority of those caught by AVA and SPCA are simply killed. There is yet little commitment in Singapore to rehabilitate and re-home these innocent and helpless but highly intelligent creatures.

We believe most of these abandonment of pets are really unnecessary if Singaporeans had been aware of the requirements and responsibilities of keeping them in the first place. We hope by educating the people and raising their awareness, especially the ones who are most vulnerable to be cheated by unethical pet shops and bad breeders, we can greatly reduce the number of people abandoning, neglecting and abusing their dogs. PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE.

You are welcome to e-mail us for FREE pre-dog consultation services. We are absolutely not affiliated with any pet shop, breeder, vet clinic, dog groomer or dog obedience school.

We are just the DogPeople^®.

Animal abuse and abandonment are offences under the laws in Singapore. Convicted criminals shall be fined an amount not over $10,000 or sentenced to a jail term not exceeding 12 months or to both.
