A Day In The Life: Filipino Dog Edition permalink

No one ever said it was easy being a dog. Especially one in the Philippines. While it’s technically illegal to eat dogs there, canines are a major source of protein for the island nation. So, instead of playing fetch, dogs there tend to be the daily catch.

6AM - Wake up!
Rise and shine from your comfy crate in the back of a truck. It was a long, wet, bumpy ride all night with nose to tail, so you’re eager to greet the new day.
7 AM - Climb out of bed
More like, be dragged out by your neck, but whatever. You may not be getting a gourmet breakfast, but at least you dont have other dogs gnawing on your kidneys anymore.
9 AM - Exercise
Try to balance on all fours after years of maiming, disease, and neglect. If you can, you can head right out the door to work…
10 AM - Go to work
Punching the clock for you means standing around for a few seconds before you get shot and tossed on a pile of your colleagues. And you thought assistant crackwhores had it rough.
5 PM - Become dinner
After a long day at work, the butcher will send you home with a nice family for dinner. Good odds you’ll become another dog’s scraps.
