A Dog-day Afternoon at LILO ARTs Cafe' : Adoption Drive

Packed for the occasion 
LILO Arts Cafe and Ohana co-joined for the weekly Dog adoption Drive for the abandoned and unwanted dogs and majorly puppies for now.


I am honored to come to this event and mingle with the dogs; owned and not owned alike. Aside from putting my camera to good use, I learnt-a-plenty from the day alone. It is not about the adoption alone but the passion shared between dog owners and their love for their fur kids aka dogs or puppies


Before proceeding further, here are a some of the takes; With plenty thanks to Brother Azlan Munani and new found friend TOY for tips on better picture takes to this caveman.

Despite not adopting any dogs but many including myself are reaching out to the little ones, the hurt ones and the abandoned ones with a pat, some snacks and sincere hugs. They need the love and thank you to Vivian Ng and her adorable Cujo with amazing acrobatic performances. Only a true bond between owner and their pet can nurture such trust.


Trust not only bonds a human with another but those are the trust that be broken without any effort. 

Will you reach out to wipe your dogs' tears if they are crying?




Will you know where they are hurting and are you ready to be ready to share their pain?



Before you raise your hand to smack your pet out of frustration,

Before you abandoned your dog cause it belongs to your ex,

Before you throw a dog out of the car or into the drain,

Feel your heart and ask yourself,

You may not wipe your dog's tears but it will know and come to lick yours dry,

If no one else cares for you, your dog will,

When your friends and families are against you, your dog will never retaliate,

When friends are unable reach to you when you are down in whatever circumstances,

Your dog will the first to run to you to let you hug and cuddle them,

Their unique way of trust and love,

Love and cherish your dogs not otherwise,

Learn to love and understand them before any drastic actions.

I dedicate this song to you all, Dear Readers and all the lovely dogs out there; from the late Whitney Houston

Title: Run to You
