sorry to dissapoint you but we're still in the stone age (or maybe ice age - dinosour age) when it comes to animal welfare, animal rights.
there are many passionate and dedicated animal right activitis, rescuers, fosterers, animal lovers but our voices are scattered cos our voice is individual voice not collective. if we all stand up collectively in the same voice with the same aim and marching towards the same result and action, maybe we can make a difference?
a dump idealist thought of mine - hoping that this would become reality one day, maybe not in my lifetime but one day, of course the sooner the better.

In many countries, the vet would have been legally within his rights to a) seize the dog and b) report the abusive/neglectful owner to the police. A severely underweight animal with an untreated, maggot-infested wound would be clear evidence of criminal neglect.
Is that the situation here in Malaysia?
