Stray dogs...
by AMIT KUMAR on Apr 10, 2007 05:17 PM

Hi All, as I am reading the different messages posted by people, I am beginning to believe that the major cause of all the miseries in India are stray dogs. You get rid of them, you turn India into a paradise. How cool.

Guys, people are talking about stray dogs sperading diseases, but where does your sense of hygiene go when you go out and eat from road side eating joints? Can you guarantee that they sell hygienic food items? You think its very good when you piss on a wall in the open or eat a paan and spit on the walls but you think that stray dogs are unhealthy.

Guys, stray dogs become a menace when they do not get proper food. Man is said to be most intelligent and logical animal on earth. If hungry, even man can get aggressive and even kill for food. Then with dogs, it can be expected. And by the look of it, stray dogs have not become a problem overnight. We are ready to shell out 10,000-15,000 rupees to buy a puppy for our homes, but we feel economically burdened to feed a stray dog with the left over food. And believe me, the dogs out on the street can prove to be more loyal and trustworthy than those high end expensive pooches which are high on face value. Killing/sterilizing/neutering the strays is not a solution to this problem. Opening our eyes and understanding the root of the problem is. and remember, the problem has been created by us only.
