FORGOTTEN DOG DANIEL AND FORGOTTEN DOGS OF THE 5TH WARD PROJECT - HOUSTON, TX - this quote from Daniels story hits home with me and its about the critical need for law makers to be actively engaged in animal protection . The author of this article about Forgotten Houston Dog named Daniel sought advice from an animal studies academic about why people are blind to what happens to animals. See what she received back: I will give some thought to your questions. As you said, they are broad and I am not sure if the answers exist. Nevertheless, it is worth having the conversation. That is my plea—that animals be considered worthy of conversation. That Daniel, Kingston, Destiny (a dog strikingly similar to them in her predicament and appearance, but found by a rescue group halfway across the globe in Greece), and all the rest of this world’s animals be considered and discussed. That animals be on the agenda. Not just among ourselves and our Facebook friends, but on the public agenda. On political parties’ platforms. In candidates’ talking points. In school curricula. And also that not one of them—not one of these innocents sacrificed on the altar of our error—ever be forgotten.
