Better to have dogs you know & are familiar with than dogs you don’t know/are not familiar with. The purpose is to help curb the stray population & prevent unnecessary proliferation of strays”

While this idea “MAY WORK” in an area with “A MUCH LARGER” population in a given area to help curb the spread of Zoonotic diseases like rabies and not population control , it would involve many aspects which should be considered.

Here’s a tip, the councils only goes dog catching when there’s a complaint. Would any council in Malaysia conduct this program in a complaint area in the first place? There are also numerous areas throughout Malaysia where strays are in abundance but without complaints. What happens then?
