Dog lovers seek compassionate approach & humane solutions

Kochi: A group of dog lovers in Kochi organized a gathering to raise awareness about humane solutions to the stray dog issue, including sterilization and vaccination. The meet was organised in the backdrop of a recent Supreme Court order, which directed a blanket removal of stray dogs from the Delhi NCR. The gathering was held near Kaloor Stadium on Thursday evening. While the Supreme Court on Thursday reserved the order on an interim prayer seeking a stay on the order by its two-judge bench, the organizers said that their effort was to raise awareness on the real solution, which is humane care. The group held a silent march, holding a banner saying that shelters are for healing and not for hoarding. The group also raised placards stating that sterilization works and street dogs don't need cages but compassion. The group also held a candlelight vigil. The organizers added that their gathering was not directly a protest against the Supreme Court order, but to raise awareness on the real issue.
