"Drokmo's story is a powerful reminder that animals experience physical and emotional feelings just like humans. They deserve kindness and compassion, and recognizing their sentience gives us a chance to cultivate empathy and loving-kind-ness towards all beings."
- Lama Phurbu Tashi Rinpoche,
Author of "A Buddhist Perspective on the Faults of Eating Meat"
"While reading and translating Drokmo, the Street Dog into Tibetan simultaneously, I was very moved. It tells the story of a street dog, which was abandoned by its owner and vividly captures the dog's struggles, scavenging for food and facing daily challenges just like any other street dogs. This story beautifully illustrates why adopting street dogs and offering them a home instead of purchasing expensive pets from stores is so meaningful."
- Khenpo Jampa Dhakpa,
abbot of Pema Ts'al Sakya Monastic Institute, Pokhara, Nepal
