content: "You forget something indeed. There are many kinds of people around the
world, but you have to know that one of them is people who always think that they
are always right and the rest is just not. However, it seems to have less and
less of this group of people over the time.\r\n\r\nJust think that you are so
lucky to know one of almost extinct group of people.\r\n\r\n:-P"

I've found a lot of different feelings about dogs in the world: especially in people in different landscape, culture, and lifestyle. The thing is the expectation of dogs is not so similar.
Here, in NYC, people raise their dogs as friends. They pay big amount of money for particular food for dogs, and caring such as taking a shower in pet care center, hair cutting, and medicare. Then, they keep them in the houses to be friends and walk them for a while everyday in order to let them do their business, but people don't let them bark.
In my hometown, Thailand, we also raise dogs as friends, but we treat them by ourselves. We bath dogs by ourselves as a nice activity together and feed them what we eat. Eventually, we have specific foods for dogs as well and we feed them in the same way that Americans do. Moreover, we have vets for taking care about dogs' health, pet care center with bathroom, massage room, swimming pool, and dogs salon. The other difference is dogs are not just friends but house's guard because they'll bark when they see strangers.
If you see this kind of situation in person, I bet you'll be surprised how different dogs are in both places. What I always keep in mind is differences are good things. How could you understand the word "exciting" if everything is the same around the world? And what if every single persons in the world are the same, what will challenge people to think apart, to develop things, to invent new technology, or else. There will be not interesting at all. Will it be the end of human beings that way?
An Americans said to me that "Americans treat their dogs so well, then their dogs have good manners (no barking)" I was wondering if he forgot about the different purpose to let dogs bark. Anyway, people can't understand all behaviors in different cultures even though they move to and live in the place for more than 10 years. What about people who have been in some places for a while? Is it fair to judge people who are different from you in many many ways by your narrow vision?
