:18:00
as they are an example
of good eating manners.
:18:15
Along with the tribal chiefs,
:18:16
the dogs enjoy a special
treatment too.
:18:19
lt's maybe some sort
of gentle feeling,
:18:22
something unexpected
among so much cruelty,
:18:24
so, we'd be happy
for having discovered it.
:18:27
Or maybe, these are just
the dogs of the chiefs.
:18:30
Then we wouldn't have
discovered anything new.
:18:48
But the country
where compassion for dogs
:18:50
goes beyond the limits of
human imagination is America.
:18:54
We are in the canine
cemetery of Pasadena,
:18:57
in the outskirts of Los Angeles.
:18:58
The same that inspired
Evelyn Waugh's famous book.
:19:03
lt's one of those
windy and sunless days
:19:05
when the sky of California
turns to the color of despair.
:19:17
Here, the memory of
the deceased, all of them,
:19:21
is so happy, and this
place is yet so pathetic,
:19:25
that we could shed a tear or two
over the small graves
:19:28
of these venerable creatures.
:19:55
Over their dead ancestors,
these dogs behave in a way
:19:59
that only to human standards
is irreverent.
