The list of respectable people involved in illegal dog breeding in Wales during a period of eight years that the Trading Standards were able to investigate and bring charges for is appalling. One of them is a local Councillor who you would have hoped would know better. Although, perhaps that is a misguided hope.
Either way, it gives me the opportunity to give you some information that was shared to me and really impacted me about all animals and how we should care for them and not abuse them. It was shared by Peter Egan, a talented actor and a phenomenal advocate for all “animals”, though I like to think he has a particular fondness for dogs.
What is Kahu?
In Hawaiin culture , you do not call yourself your pet’s owner. You are referred to as their “Kahu”. The word Kahu has a deep meaning and is defined as the sacred role of a guardian, protector, steward or honoured attendant. Essentially, someone entrusted with the safe keeping of something precious- something cherished. What a Kahu protects is not their property. What they protect is a part of their soul. We become better when we truly love an animal. We embraced the connection of all life when we embody what it means to be a Kahu.
