Very sad pic. In the craziness of foreign breeds dogs who can't survive few days without their owners and packaged food, we completely sidelined our native indie dogs who have been with us since thousand of years and are intelligent, resilient, low maintenance, adjust to our extreme weather, agile and so smart !!

I hope sensibilities return to everyone and may we focus on our own desi indie dogs who are as Indian as us...

They are too humble and cute, but also smart and understand Indians better than outsiders. Dog breeds

That's why when I wanted a pet dog, I decided to pick a dog from the street and it's been to years he is with us

u/Kinda_Reincarnated Aug 25 '26

Yeah same with me with my cats. I would never buy a cat. Only adopt them 👍🏽

u/goonknight6969 Aug 25 '26

Same we adopted 3 cats, my moms friends always ask why not get a persian but these types will never understand.

8

u/Kinda_Reincarnated Aug 25 '26

Indian street cats are also survivers. If they get attacked by dogs or other cats, they can fend for themselves really well! I had a black cat, not even fully grown and she would make this adult Tom cat run for the hills (he would start the fights, my cat was only defending itself)

I will never side with dog lovers who chase breeds and get disgusted by indies, you either love life or you don't, simple.

sensibilities will not return to anyone, sorry to say this, because people buy foreign breeds to show off and they find them cute ! i donnow, all dogs are cute to me

u/Madeleinesbnr Aug 25 '26

Two worlds: one breeds dependence, the other, survival. The mirror shows who truly adapts.

Actually I don't like breed dog ethically and aesthetically. They all looks same. If we place 10 dogs no owner could find its. Ethically there mother are breed evry month without any rest and at last disposed on street. Where they end up dying. So I can't stand with people who buy dogs . I love indies and will adopt indies till my end

20

u/Confident-Profile143 Aug 25 '26

A friend adopted a rescued Persian cat. She was kept for 3 years in a bathroom, never taken out. Had litter every few months which were sold. Was rescued as the breeder wanted to dispose her off. When she got home she was so lost and did not respond to anything..it's been 3 weeks and slowly she's coming to terms with love, freedom.... Totally broken my heart that everyone who has its baby, led her to this state. Why should we buy ??? We have enough stray dogs and cats - why are we still buying ??

7

u/No_Habit8244 Aug 25 '26

Because we are racists. We buy dogs to show-off. People boast that they "adopted" his dog for how much money. Sadly these people hate indies . Ghar ki murgi daal barabar. I believe people don't deserve indies.

5

u/LordofPvE Aug 25 '26

I literally had this fat ass tell me not feed indie dogs near his house, I was on a street with no house nearby. This fat ass then let the door be open and out came this ugly german shepherd who wanted me to feed him the food I brought for my indie dogs "_".

6

u/DragSticks Aug 25 '26

That's so sad. I love cats, and I believe adopting stray kittens is the way to go... but I never gave much though to cats who are kept like this. The more I think of it, the more it horrifies me. Greedy people can be so cruel, ugh, it's disgusting.

Disparity is a common topic in our country, be it in mankind, animals. No one can fix this except the govt. This is a sad state of affair in India and the likes of our country like Bangladesh, pakistan etc more than any other pro life country

22

u/SabChangaSea Aug 25 '26

That's the sad reality of our world, even for humans.

Last night I took shade near an atm because of rain and there was a homeless man sitting in a corner with his head down. I went to that tiny space because I was inconvenienced by the rain and as soon the rain would stop I have the privilege of going to better place which I call a home, but for that person, that tiny place is where he would spend the rest of the night and many more such nights.

I wish I could've done something to improve the his overall condition, but I am helpless too.

I genuinely hope that these people some day get some sense knocked in them, that they realize the animal abuse they support.

As for me, I don't think there is anyone else I can love as much I love my baby. Both me and my husband are crazy about her.

Foreign breeds should be banned in india. They cannot survive in india weather and conditions without ownership and also people don't thus adopt Indie.

There was a very smart and cute indie dog in our colony for many years.

Everytime late night I go out to park my scooty inside the house she will come running. Sit outside my house quietly and wait for me. I will park my scooty. Go inside, get some loaf of bread or something edible and give to her. She will grab that and run away.

Never once cause any issue or fought or peed or popped near anyone's house. Super intelligent. Last year she got sick from age. We called an NGO for treatment. Have her weekly paid doses and did all I could. I don't see her anywhere now. I guess she is gone and previously i do use to wait after parking my scooty if she will come or not. But it's been a long time. Probably gone forever. I am not really a huge animal lover or anything but if I ever get a pet somewhere in future I really hope it's her.

The image made me sad. But that’s how the world works. When there is no equality in human race how can it happen in animals. I feel, regardless of the breed, or, adopted or bought .. pets having good caring parents are really lucky. They are saved from the street hardships. But God bless them both ❤️

Dude..!! So, what'd you say if you replace the dogs with human child ?? Does favouritism works there as well ?  To put your logic into perspective, as there's lot of kids who might've been orphan, any couple should planning a baby should adopt them rather than having a baby on their own..

I brought three indian puppies in november 2025 as they were crying, covered with dew, in chilling winter. Since then whoever saw them aksed me why the hell i have kept them, i should have kept some foreign breed. The more people say this thing the more i become protective as it tells me a brutal truth that anyone will be willing to keep foreign breed but no one will care about these indian puppies even if they die out of hunger. They are now 9 months old. People didn't stop saying. I didn't stop loving them

Don't worry about that dude, 99% people on this sub own indies. We promote adopting them instead of buying breed dogs. We cannot take each one of them home, yet we feed and take care of most of them when we come across them.

u/ScorchedMagic Aug 26 '26

Indie dogs are under rated, and subjected to everyday apathy and cruelty, where every minor incident involving them is magnified to become a viral scary story while all their heroics lay under told. For every kind eye that sees them, there are a hundred who frown upon them, and still most often these poor dogs tend to trust us. For every corruption scandal, political scandal, they become an easy scapegoat to divert attention and they know nothing of man and his motives. They deserve a better life:(
