Reverse The Order Of Supreme Court's judgement on stray animals
There is so much wisdom in the street dogs of India.
I hope one day soon I can go and learn from them.
Street dogs are so often misunderstood. Many imagine mangey, starving dogs attacking humans… but the reality is very different. In many parts of India, these dogs live as community animals—coexisting peacefully with people, navigating their environment with confidence, and showing us what a natural canine lifestyle can look like.
It breaks my heart that tourism is being used as a justification for removing or killing these glorious animals. Yet so many travellers—including myself—are drawn because of the beauty of seeing dogs living naturally, freely, and harmoniously alongside people.

The Australian Veterinary Association clearly recommends reward-based training and advises against the use of aversive methods, as these can increase anxiety, stress, and defensive aggression in dogs.
If our national veterinary body recognises that aversive or “balanced” training practices are not in the best welfare interests of dogs, then it raises an important question:

Why are such methods still widely accepted and marketed as ‘normal’ training?

Until we shift the cultural understanding of dogs from obedience and control to welfare, needs, and communication, we will continue to see avoidance, fear, frustration and, ultimately, an increase in dog bites and aggressive behaviours.

Respecting dogs means supporting them as sentient beings with emotional and physical needs — not simply expecting compliance. When we address the underlying causes of behaviour and prioritise welfare, we see safer, calmer, more confident dogs and safer communities.
