A routine morning walk ends in tragedy
The veterinarian, active on social media and a pet owner himself, recounted a somber tale. He went for a morning jog, leaving his dogs in the backyard. Upon his return, he discovered 60 missed calls from his neighbors.
Anwary was unable to reach them in time to intervene. He took to TikTok to warn his followers, advising against leaving collars on pets at home or freely roaming in the garden. He regretfully acknowledged that his oversight led to his pet's death.
"You never imagine such a thing happening to you until it does. It took a great deal of time for me to speak about it due to the powerful emotions involved, but I felt it was important to caution you. Please, be mindful with collars!" the veterinarian stressed.
