Dog Hep

I have know him for several dog decades. A dog decade is about 1.43 humans years.

 

I knew him when he was a young, frightened , empty headed pup trying to make his way on the brutal streets.

 

Now he is a success. He survived. He was not run over by a car. He did not succumb to the tick disease. He was not fed to the children of an extremely poor family.

 

Now he is the Grand Alpha Prince of the market intersection. He is the big boss of the dogs in that territory. He determines who can come and who must go. He has three soldiers in his canine army.

 

I helped him out when he was a nobody. He remembers that. He is kind of enough to join me and my American dog in Thailand for meals when we enter his domain. It is how he shows his appreciation.

 

Street dogs can live their entire life without ever having a name. I gave him the name, Hep. It means tick.

 

When he was a desperate and struggling beast he always had many many ticks on him. That is why I name him hep (tick)

 

You need to know that a dog can not enter the pearly gates of heaven if it has never earned a name in in its life time.

 

So whenever you meet a wild dog or a street dog you should bestow a name upon it. You have to call them the name three times.
