Criticism from haters more fierce than ever for a simple story on Instagram. The next co-host with Carlo Conti of the Tim Summer Hitspromoted this year on Rai 1, Andrea Delogu had to respond to the criticisms made about his dog Spilla lying on the ground and wearing a muzzle.
“Do you realize how out of line you are when you write or say to a person who muzzles their dog: ‘but poor thing, take it away’ or various related things of useless pietism? – said the radio host and speaker – Do you think I get up one morning and decide to do it because I’m crazy? And in any case every dog should know how to wear a muzzle and your ‘I would never be able to’ has done more damage than good. Many of you experience your pet as an extension of yourself. When it no longer resembles us, when we no longer share sensations, then it can die. A dog, even if he doesn’t see or is a little dazed, is fine. If he eats well and does what he has to do he is fine. An animal is killed if the suffering is such that it cannot overcome it, not if it has aged.”
And finally: “I never recommend getting a dog, getting it must be a very thoughtful choice. It is a continuous commitment and not just economic. Brooch saved my life, I needed her to understand many things about me but I still say that if you want a dog in your life you have to be more than certain”.
After these words, many expressed solidarity with the presenter.
