"Tucked quietly along a street in Barcelona, there stands a sculpture that stops people in their tracks.It’s called The Abandoned Dog, created by Catalan artist Artur Aldomà Puig.No pedestal. No glory. Just a dog—sculpted in stone, sitting alone, waiting.Its eyes are what pull you in.Wide. Hopeful. Full of quiet sorrow.It’s not just a statue—it’s a message.This sculpture is a tribute to every dog who gave their love, only to be left behind. It speaks for the voiceless. The loyal. The forgotten.Next to the figure is a poem by the artist himself, etched in metal.It reads:“Your race doesn’t matter.Your name doesn’t matter.You came into the worldto be my friend.”It’s not just about dogs. It’s about what we owe to love—the love that comes without judgment, without condition, without limit.Locals leave flowers by its paws. Children stop to pet it. Visitors kneel to take photos and wipe away tears. It has become a place of memory, and mourning, and quiet promises.A reminder that loyalty like this should never go unnoticed.Artur Aldomà Puig didn’t just sculpt a dog.He sculpted a responsibility."
It is common usage in English to refer to it as a baby, even in utero. Just ask your mother. But you do bring up an important question, when is it a baby? Dont say "at birth", my son's best friend was born at 28 weeks in an emergency c section because of a car accident. He is a good kid and no less of a person because he wasn't born at 40 weeks.
