”Dogs should not be fed food by the neighbors. They come to fight by asking to take it to their own house and eat it.
Sometimes he wants to leave home and travel far away. But with the love of dogs, no matter where you go throughout the day, you have to come home in the evening. She considers it a pleasure as well as a compulsion. Princess Rana, who lives in Kushma Municipality-6, has been feeding the hungry stomachs of abandoned dogs in the market for four years, whether it is during the torrential rains in June-July or in the bitter cold of March-January.
A community dog that is mistreated as 'Bhusyaha' in the society, but the princess is considered a member of her own family . The dog has given her the most happiness and she has also received sorrow because of the dog. If someone hits me out of love for the dog, I will retaliate. They don't like that and they fight,' says Rajkumari, 'It hurts more to not understand the feelings of an innocent and speechless animal than to be insulted.' The dogs sitting in the boxes of the street and market houses are waiting for the princess . Dogs recognize him from afar . As soon as he stops the scooter, he comes in front of the dog princess in Shivalay Chowk, wagging his tail with love, squealing and shouting . She says, "My happiness is this". If one day I am sick and can't come to feed them, I worry about who will fill their hungry stomachs.
Every day she cooks five kg of chicken legs and heads and 10 manas of rice. She has been feeding food to stray dogs in the market since four years ago. Now she has bought a plastic bowl to feed the dog. She waits until the dog eats it . She used to feed the dogs of Kushma Bazar's Shivalaya Chowk, Durlung Chowk, Zero, Narayanamavi Chowk, Maitri Chowk and Melmilap Chowk. She says that it was 10:30/11 o'clock in the night when she reached home after serving food.
'People around you can't feed dogs randomly . They come to argue with me saying that they should take me to their house to eat,' says the princess sadly, 'I gave them food and the dog sat in front of their house. Once even the police called me and abused me. Even if you cannot give food to the dog living in front of your house, please do not hit or splash water. God must see from above.'
30/35 thousand rupees are being spent a month to feed the dog. She said that till now she is doing the management alone. He has a son and a daughter . They are abroad for employment . Husband is a retired Indian soldier . My financial condition is fine. It is difficult to feed a dog with private investment, rather than that, I have to go to the market alone to feed it," she said, "The family is happy with my work . The children themselves send a different amount of money to the dog because they want to do a good deed.
There are three dogs in the princess's house for five years. She says, "Even if they eat four times a day, they don't eat more than that, while the dogs living on the street don't get to eat even once a day." Their hunger is the same as ours.' Earlier, when she saw a skinny and crippled dog on the street, she used to buy biscuits and give food only to those who came before her house.
"One day when I went out for a morning walk, a disabled dog's back body could not move in Sajhachowk. When I saw that it was starving by eating discarded milk plastic with a thin body, I cried and returned home and cooked meat and rice and let it eat to its full stomach," she narrated . She remembers feeding three dogs for the first time. Earlier, while walking alone and carrying a bucket to feed the dog living in the chokchok, the princess's arms and shoulders were suddenly numb.
She has been carrying food on a scooter for a year. She goes home only after feeding more than 50 street dogs until they die. She complains to the district administration saying that the people in the market beat up the dog and sometimes she goes to the journalists and scolds them . Even though abuse of four-legged animals is punishable by law, he believes that because the state does not take it seriously, human abuse of dogs has increased. She also sees that the employees of the animal service office in the district are living on salary. They make excuses when they call that there is a dog with injuries all over the body, and they need to be treated with medicine. If you take responsibility and bring the dog, we will treat it, otherwise they will not come.'
The princess asked the local government to build a 'dog homestay' for community dog management in Kushma like elsewhere. She reminded that the dog is worshiped as Bhairava and worshiped as God during Tihar and requested that no one abuse the dog.
