What's new

Stray dogs rounded up, culled in Karachi.

And the death is a terrible death my mum was bitten by a rabbid dog in punjab when she was young think she had a load of injections in her stomach.
aaj kal pehle ki tarah pet me 14 injection nai lagtey:p:
 
On reading the Headline, For a moment I thought it was about action being taken against TTP and MQM goons in Karachi
 
Is there any other way to dispose them off ??

There is a humane way to control the population- through a program of sterilisations. Just because it is difficult does not mean it shouldn't be tried.

Dogs are some of the most faithful companions of man. A human being may lose faith in you, a dog remains forever true to its master. They deserve better treatment.
 
You mean for rabies? Not 100%, but very close to it. A few people have recovered, the first being a girl in the USA in 2004:

(Has nothing to do with the merits or demerits of the incident under discussion.)

Different perception , Dogs may be very faithful , those dogs bite people on streets or kids, must be killed , a human life can never be equal to any animal , either its a dog , camel , cow , goat and even a dinosaur
 
It would be interesting to see the statistics of countries/cities around the world and their stray populations.
Dogs with no ID collars in the US are immediately sent to animal shelters and if not adopted after a certain time...a sad ending is their fate.
 
Such a thing is impossible in India.
Correct. Actually it is done in even more horrible way.

350 dogs killed in Cochin (Kochi) to prepare for the 2012 ‘Tourist Season’, 12 ABC dogs killed in Princess Street alone. You still want to vacation in Kerala?

Posted on | December 2, 2011

In Oct 2011, 350 dogs were killed in Cochin at the beginning of the tourist season our source reported today. A group of people possibly shopkeepers reportedly of a certain community got together to engage a group of people to kill the dogs. It is not know immediately that the people who killed were from outside Cochin or catchers/ employees of the Cochin Municipal Corporation

Earlier, in Sept 2011, 12 dogs were brutally killed in single busy tourist shopping street in Cochin (Princess Street). There were killed in front of several people our source personally received 7 different calls as the killing was going on. No one on location wanted to intervene out of the fear of the assaulters – who mercilessly killed the dogs in plain view. All the dogs were ABC dogs & were vaccinated by an NGO operating in Cochin.

Extremely human way of killing stray dogs in India

As many as 56 stray dogs were killed in Mowlivakkam village panchayat, a western suburb near Poonamallee in the past two days.

According to members of Blue Cross of India, they received a call from residents of Mowlivakkam that stray dogs and puppies were being rounded-up and killed by administering lethal injections since Tuesday evening.

Dawn Williams, Residential General Manager, Blue Cross, Chennai, said he visited Mowlivakkam around 9 a.m. on Wednesday and noticed a tractor trailer filled with carcasses of stray dogs. There were 34 carcasses, including 11 pups. The tractor trailer was operated by the village panchayat to collect and dispose garbage as part of its solid waste management project.

Personnel at Mangadu police station, where a case was registered following a complaint from Mr. Williams, told The Hindu that enquiries revealed that the village panchayat's conservancy staff had acted on oral instructions from elected representatives. A total of 22 dogs and pups were killed on Tuesday.

While none has yet been named as accused, police said they were conducting further investigations. The carcasses were sent to Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Vepery, for post-mortem.

A ‘grama sabha' (village council) meeting of the panchayat was held on October 2 where the elected representatives promised to look into complaints of residents about the problems caused by stray dogs moving around in packs.

Mr. Williams said the animals were captured in a crude manner using rings made from steel strings attached to wooden poles. Once captured, the lethal injections were administered to them and the carcasses were loaded to the vehicle to be taken for mass burial. This practice was a blatant violation of Supreme Court guidelines and punishable under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act and also under Indian Penal Code, he said.

I agree dogs that bite people on the street need to be put down. But most definitely it does not mean that every dog on the street needs to be put down for what a very few have done? That's like saying everyone os responsible for the actions of a few.

Also, when one has been around dogs long enough, unless it has rabies, one realises that the instinct of every dog is not to bite but to defend itself by running away in stressful situations involving human beings. As a side note, it is a fact that it is almost always humans that treat dogs badly over a period of time that turn dogs into biters.
