if you had been me. This morning I was having an early morning ride, with not much traffic or people about, when up ahead I saw something laying in the road. It turned out to be a dog that had been hit by a car or truck and it was badly damaged at the rear end, with blood spreading over the road. It was still alive and trying to drag itself off the road (probably towards home) but as you can imagine progress was slow. Would you have stopped to try and help a (possibly) dangerous dog who may bite and rabbies can be a problem out here, or try to put it out of it's misery and if so how. The sight upset me but I admit I just cycled past feeling totally inadequate and some what guilty. When I came back for the second lap of the 16Km loop that I use about 30+ mins later the dog was gone. I was relieved to see that at least someone had done something but being China the dog may now be in some cooking pot or other.
