Soup Kitchen ... for Dogs!

Posted by Alex in Animal, Money & Finance on November 1, 2008 at 1:47 pm


The worldwide economic woes aren’t just limited to humans so Claudia Hollm has opened the Berlin’s first soup kitchen … for dogs!

A soup kitchen exclusively for dogs has opened its doors in Berlin providing pets of the homeless and unemployed with a free meal, the director of the establishment said on Friday.

Despite the looming financial crisis, director Claudia Hollm dismissed criticism that it may be more sensible to collect money for humans than for dogs.

"Nowadays people underestimate dogs. They are incredibly important for those who lack social contact with other humans," Hollm told Reuters.

    That's actually a pretty good idea. She's definitely got a point about the role pets play in peoples lives. Plus, if you're so broke you can't afford a small bag of cheap cat or dog food, how great is that for your self-esteem?

    This reminds me of a joke about the dog of a homeless person thinking, "I could do this by myself."

    There are angels disguised as humans out there..you just have to know where to look !

    Great idea- this program should be in every town and every city of this country.

    God bless !
