I.- Interview
J.- Teacher Janeth Diaz





(I): 1.- What do you think of the event?
(J): The Celebration for the Pets’ Day is a good opportunity to know about the importance and respect that they deserve as living beings with which we share this planet, in addition, because many of them (domesticated) represent company and sometimes take care of us.

(I): 2.- What is the purpose of this celebration?
(J): I understand that for many decades it was related to the day of St. Francis of Asis, who is considered among other virtues as the protector of animals.

(I): 3.- From the animals they brought, Which one is of your preference?
(J): All pets that participate in the parade, as we do every year at school, are beautiful, from ducks, rabbits, turtles, hamsters, to cats (though not my favorite) and dogs, lasts ones are my pet favorite. Since I was a kid I have always had one, I would say maybe dogs are my favorite.

(I): 4.- What is your point of view in reference to animal abuse?
(J): It bothers me a lot when I know someone who mistreats animals, because I believe that whoever makes it cannot be a good person. Fortunately more and more organizations are dedicated to the protection and care of animals in distress or are reported as abused. It is something that should be penalized and established tougher laws against those who do.

(I): 5.- How do you feel around animals?
(J): I think the environment they promote is of harmony, sometimes stress ... because also require owners demand from their time, dedication food. It is medically proved that the companionship of a pet can relieve stress and prevent disease!

(I): How is your experience with animals?
(J): Fortunately until now so good, I've never had a bad experience as I have always respected the space of pets or animals that I do not know (I have never been bitten by a dog or any other kind of anilam), the animals must be respected and observe their nonverbal behavior as they have many ways to communicate with their environment.


(I): Teacher, as a conclusion, would you like to share us a reflection or comment respect the theme?
(J): Yes, sure
Harnessing the space to encourage people (who we like and also who do not ) to respect and take care of the animals, they also share this planet with us and deserve attention and care. Knowing about agencies and authorities to whom you can report abuse and help stop violence against these defenseless beings.

(I): Thank you teacher, for your time and also you’re informative answers that I‘m sure our public would like.
(J): No problem and thank you for choosing me for this interesting interview.
