Meet SPCA’s longest-serving employee, who started out afraid of dogs
Meet SPCA’s longest-serving employee, who started out afraid of dogs
Mr Pribakaran Kunju first stumbled upon the job opening at SPCA during a meeting with a friend in 1979. Despite his initial hesitation, he agreed to go for an interview as his friend promised they would be working side by side.
Fast forward 46 years and you could say Mr Pribakaran is a changed man. The 69-year-old started as an animal care officer. Now, as a senior shelter executive, his main task involves reuniting lost pets with their owners.
Through constant training and exposure, he has not only overcome his fear of dogs but also become adept at handling them.
