I'm scared of dogs. Though I find them adorable, it takes a lot of courage from my side to actually go close to one, and I'd be the happiest person if I could muster enough courage to go pat or stroke one (we're strictly talking about grown-up dogs here, not puppies - I have held puppies in my hand!)
So it happened two days back that I saw, for the first time, a stray dog in Singapore. I was sitting in the bus stop waiting for a bus when I saw the dog in the opposite side's bus stop. I was surprised, and I smiled, despite all my fears. And that was the mistake.
The dog, rightaway crossed the street and came to the bus stop where I was sitting. I was terrified, and look around. I was alone in the bus stop...HELP!
The dog came and stopped a few inches short of me. Then it darted off to the left and relieved itself on a pillar nearby. And when it left, it almost brushed past my legs, but I didn't do anything much as I was frozen with terror.
And everyone in the road was genuinely surprised when they saw the dog. Many were pointing to the dog and looking at it with awe (as though they've never seen such a species before!)
So what am I trying to say?
Singapore-a irukkatum, Ambattur-a irukkatum, theru -nai engeyum irukkum!
(Applause, please!)

Lol. That was funny.
I dislike puppies but like the bigger ones. Much too huggable.
But hey, singaporeans are like that, even if they see a hen on the street, they'll look till their eyeballs drop.. Err, okay, so I'm one of them *rolls eyes*

:) ..and i was surprised to see beggars in usa ..
jagan,
There! If someone ever says 'India has stray dogs, beggars and people who dirty the streets' etc., now we know what to tell them!
Singapore-a irukkatum, Ambattur-a irukkatum, theru -nai engeyum irukkum!
>> Andha theru nai illatiyum, this thathuvam will hold good. :D .. Did i mean something????????????? No offence mate!
Even, I'm so scared of dogs. I know a kutti dog which scared the s**t out of 4 of us.
stray dog in Spore?? surprising.. well in India thgh sometimes its scary and we r like holding our breath passing thru some aggressive ones isnt it?..
anon,
warning: kutti dogs are highly capable of freaking us out!!
vivhyd,
namma oorula aggressive dogs mattum illa aggressive nariya vishyam irukku...adhukkellam pazhagi indha nai onnume illaye!! ;)
