For those that dont know, I work at Camp Bow Wow castle rock and i love it! I love working, I love the dogs, and I even love cleaning because I find it oddly relaxing. Last weekend though, I helped break up one of the more minor dog fights that theyve had. It was crazy, everything happened so quickly, one second were putting dogs in there kennels the next second a dog opens the gate and a fight broke out. Because of the quick reaction of my fellow workers none of the dogs were injured, none of the workers were injured, and most importantly we broke it up quick enough that the pack mentality didnt even have one second to set in. The veterans at camp bow wow probably didnt even consider it a fight because of all of the reasons previously stated, but never have I seen a dog for no particular reason attack another dog at random. Maybe in dog world the tension had been mounting up between the two but from an outsiders vantage point it was completely at random. This made me look at how humans judge other cultures and although an outsider they decide to attack. Maybe there was never a build up, a simple desire to be alpha...this can even be seen throughout history when Europe decided to settle in America and attacked the settlers to todays world when people fight wars and eachother because of the color of their skin or they god they choose to worship. The fight indirectly brought me to a simple question: Who am I to judge another? Who am I to tell people that their god (or lack of god) is wrong? Who am I to tell someone I am better than them because the color of my skin or the neighborhood I come from?
Just a random thought
