June 8, 2010: Dog slum in Brazil



The Brazilian city of Caxias do Sul is where this is noticed: a "slum for dogs", it mirrors the tin roof slum conditions in nearby human lives, but here in dog form. As the link notes,

Quote:
Without enough money to build a proper shelter for 1,600 abandoned pooches, the humane organization So Ama, or “Just Love,” keeps the animals chained to an array of about 1,000 small dog houses that look like the Brazilian slums made famous by movies such as “City of God.”


Normally in poverty conditions, the dog's life would be much worse. At least this is something.
