Re: In To-day's Newspapers
It was done officially before Monika saw it as a vote catcher. Incidentally she was arrested for swindling some NGOs money last year.Off course she denies it and being a Gandhi every one believes her ! But the culling was done by a paid official of the local Panchyat who was also licensed by the police to carry and shoot the rifle in a public place.One of the problems of mass tourism is the glut of food available to stray dogs and rats.But i have to say the numbers of stray dogs is actually down now.Cars and the indiscriminate usage of rat poison being the chief cause of fatalities.Its a crying shame that Goa is now one of the richest states in India and doesn't have an official policy of culling unwanted and stray dogs. My ex-land lady lost her dog last year to Rattol.

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
Unfortunately I did not find this in South Goa in November - there were as many as ever. There were also hundreds of tiny scrawny cats and kittens, weak with hunger, looking desperately for food - particularly in Margao. It's really heartbreaking and stays with you.

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
Very confused here?
If they are spraying (cbc) bitches, what are they spraying them with? Maybe aftershave so the male dogs think they are blokes?
Alternatively, splaying (k800etc) could have undesired results. If they splay their back legs it would probabably encourage mating? Splaying their front legs, however will result in instant death, as any SAS/Marine Commando will tell you.
Maybe it would be best to stick with spaying (Oxford Dictionary), as suggested by Monika/Maneka Ghandi, innit?

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
There is a large pack of dogs who roam around the fields near us in North Goa it would be quite frightening to come across them suddenly. Splaying them may stop them producing more pups but it does not stop them carrying disease including rabies, nor does it stop them howling for half the night. They should be gathered up and put to sleep rather than being shot at or left to starve.

This is far more important than arguing over spelling.
