I know that there are people who love dogs. But I didn't know that to them, losing a dog is like losing their own child.
When my relative got hold of the news of his beloved dog went missing, he put his work aside, booked the next available flight from Hong Kong and flew back to Singapore to search for the dog.
He spent his next few days looking for the dog. He even posted an advertisement in the Straits Times. Well, someone responded to that advertisement but it turned out to be a scam. The person claims that he saw the dog somewhere and demanded $100 from my relative. I was flabbergasted when my relative gave him that amount and ask him to continue to look for the dog! Idiot lucky guy!
