Every day we get the news of dog bites but when we try to find out a solution to this problem, we find ourselves lost in the complexities of laws framed for the protection of animals from cruelty. Even approaching Noida Authority, sometimes, proves futile because it also feels helpless to take any permanent solution except to sterilize the dogs or pick up the sick and rabid for treatment and then again restore to their original habitat.
There is no dearth of dog lovers who have their daily routine to feed dogs which is no doubt a very noble act on their part to save these strays from hunger, but unintentionally they also create problems for the general public when these strays start biting strangers, like maids, drivers, hawkers and visitors which becomes a great problem and compels people reacting to the act of dog lovers when the victims have to undergo trauma of pain and agony after dog bites.
In my opinion, the problem of stray dogs can be resolved at our own level if each of the dog lovers adopts one stray dog and keeps it leashed at their residence and take care of their general health also. I feel pleasure in mentioning one such dog lover who has adopted a stray dog and takes it out for morning and evening walks along with a scoop to clear the dog’s poop.
I am sure that other dog lovers and feeders will also take a cue from this dog lover and start keeping one dog at their residence.
