I take on board that everyone has different views and opinions of stray dogs.
Let me make it absolutely and abundantly clear, all stray dogs are dangerous, they are a menace and a permanent health hazzard to anyone, whether they attack us Indian natives or visiting foreign tourists. We must remember, we do not and never will, have an adequate health service let alone a welfare state, that is on a similar level to a country that is richer than India.
If any country richer than India, had a problem with stray dogs, it would be dealt with, quickly, professionally and efficently, which is never the case with us here.
Regardless of what people's views and opinions may be, I would have all the dogs killed, not steralized regardless of unrest and protest, people must accept change whether they like it or not, stop living in the past. It makes no difference whatsoever, if they will be sterilized or nutered. Stray dogs look and feel unhealthy and diseased, as apposed to a pet dog which is owned by a family. We must also remember again, dogs in rich countries are well trained, well groomed and well fed, unforutnately that isn't and never will be the case here in India.
Stray dogs can carry a wide range of diseases, which does increase the risk of transmission to a human, should somebody get bitten. India has always portrayed a very negative image of dealing with a crisis and reaching a positive solution.
The roads and streets are ONLY used for road users and pedestrians (please walk on the pavement). There is no place for stray (dogs especially) animals or any other animal for that matter.
As a country, we really do urgently need to improve the standard of health and hygiene in this country, because the way I look at it, we are heading backwards. We don't want to portray an ignorant and negative image of India throughout the world in this way whatsoever. It is about time, we kept our roads and streets clean, tidy and garbage (rubbish) free.
We must act now before ignorance of our failures and weakness to deal with any crisis, becomes a growing major and permanent problem in India.
