"AWAs represented by Alvares in court are opposed to this."How can you pick up any healthy dog off the street and put it into a gas chamber", she asks. "Strays are on the streets because there is garbage and bins, and because people put them there. Some of them have loose owners who feed them scraps" She says arguing for a wholistic approach and more time for the ABC programme to eventually bring down numbers." Response: Well written and informative article! Just a comment to the above: Garbage does not create stray dogs. I would think it is the stray dogs that scatter the garbage making it difficult to clear. It is the stray dogs that breed more stray dogs. If an owner does not show up at the local animal pound to pick up their dog within a week, they obviously do not miss the animals and do not care! So yes one can / should "pick up any healthy dog off the street and put it into a gas chamber" after due diligence.
