Young woman in Bataan opens home to over 40 dogs


Thinking of adopting a dog? A young woman has beat you to it about 40-times over because that is the number of dogs she rescued.
 
A report on GMA 7’s “Unang Balita” on Monday said that Jonah Lynn Enriquez from Samal, Bataan had started rescuing abused and neglected dogs three years ago.
 
“Sa simula sa mga kalapit barangay kapag nakakakita ako ng mga asong naiiwan sa kalye, ginagalis, stray, iniuuwi ko sa bahay. Tapos nagkasunod-sunod na dahil pati sa Maynila, iyong nasa dog pound na gagamitan ng euthanasia, ang ilan kinukuha ko,” she explained.
 
 
As to why she took the responsibility, she said that she just could not wait for others to do it.
 
“Kung hindi ko gagawin, sino tutulong sa mga hayop? Hindi ko pwedeng iasa sa iba. Dapat gawin ko sa abot ng aking makakaya sapagka't nakadepende sa tao ang mga hayop. Dapat i-rescue at buksan ang ating tahanan para sa mga animals,” she explained.
 
Enriquez also reminded dog owners to take good care of their pets and avoid putting them inside a cage or on a leash. — Trisha Macas/DVM, GMA News
