Although a ‘no kill policy’ is supposedly in place, animal welfare organisations claim dogs are rounded up and are ‘disappearing.’

    Dont even think about to kill stray animals, why cant have a opphanage for them, so those who want to have pets can buy from here, UDA have to see this ASAP. Should implement animal licence too.

    Bring all stray dogs home if you can. Any idea how much we are expending on rabies injections? We need a control over stray dogs or people who love should do something (may be you can have a fund and keep them somewhere and look after)

    Please see stats on deaths by rabies. Those animals should be with animal-lovers/owners. No more stray animals please; they spread deceases, spread garbage pulled out from bins. also they suffer without food, and care etc.
