Policy for Street and Pet Dog Caregiving in the form of Guidelines (Revised)
The Policy guidelines framed pursuant to the order dated 23-09-2022 of the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay at Goa, are revised, taking into consideration several dog bite cases that have occurred in the State to locals and visitors, thus bringing a bad reputation to the Tourism Sector. After subsequent review by the Department of Animal Husbandry with its Officers, the proposed Draft of Policy Revision was put up for open discussion with stakeholders on 16-05-2023. The below mentioned revised policy is put in place after taking into consideration the inputs sent in by Stakeholders. This Policy will come into force immediately on its publication in the Official Gazette and shall remain in force until further notice.
Preamble.— 1) The Dog Feeders' conflicts with the local communities in Goa, are only symptomatic of the real cause, which is the exploding population of street dogs and the inadequate measures to control the dog population. The percentage of street dogs to the human population in Goa has risen to 4.5% today. The solution to this conflict is mass sterilization of street dogs. It is clarified 2) The Policy lays down important features of the Street Dog Feeding Arrangements that must be followed in order to ensure harmony between the street dogs and the community residents. Although feeding of street dogs may lead to some inconvenience for residents, especially those who do not like dogs, such feeding is necessary to ensure that the animals do not become aggressive due to hunger and fur ther to ensure that the dogs can more easily be caught for sterilization.
3) Street dogs are often subjected to abusive treatment by people because of the incorrect/ /misplaced belief that all street dogs carry the Rabies Virus. This is not true. The State has been carrying out, through Mission Rabies, an intensive anti-Rabies campaign, by having all street dogs in the State vaccinated annually. As a result, Goa is now declared, as a Rabies Controlled Area. Nonetheless, vaccination and sterilization of dogs must continue on high priority in order to control both the dog population as well as rabies.
4) Finally, the importance of street dogs in our community is of great significance. Being territorial animals, they restrict the areas they inhabit and play the role of guards for such areas, by protecting the community they recognize from the entry of outsiders or unknown people. If these dogs are removed from these areas, new dogs will take their place. Hence it is important that the community of humans/RWAs/Co-operative or Housing Societies care for the resident dogs in their localities. It must also be remembered that street dogs provide companionship and act as stress relievers for people who spend much of their lives on the streets.
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES I No. 14 6TH JULY, 20235) The Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in the case of Dr. Maya D. Chablani vs Radha Mittal and Ors has observed as under:
"Animals have a right to be treated with compassion, respect and dignity. Animals are sentient creatures with an intrinsic value. Therefore, protection of such beings is the moral responsibility of each and every citizen including the Governmental and Non- Governmental organizations.
This inherent or natural right of a person to love or show kindness or feed animals, cannot be restricted so long and till such time as the said Acts does not cause any harm, hindrance, harassment and nuisance to other individuals or members of the society.
We have to show compassion towards all living creatures. Animals may be mute but we as a society have to speak on their behalf. No pain or agony should be caused to the animals. Cruelty to animals causes psychological pain to them. Animals breathe like us and have emotions. The animals require food, water, shelter, normal behaviour, medical care and self-determination.
Community dogs (stray/street dogs) have the right to food and citizens have the right to feed community dogs but in exercising this right, care and caution should be taken to ensure that it does not impinge upon the rights of others or cause any harm, hindrance, harassment and nuisance to other individuals or members of the society.
6) Keeping in mind the guidelines issued by Delhi High Court (Case of Maya FD. Chablani Vs Radha Mittal and Ors.), and the AWBI circular on pet dogs and street dogs, the State of Goa has formulated its own guidelines. State of Goa has adopted the AWBI Revised Guidelines on Pet dogs and street dogs dated 26th February, 2015 along with the following provisions as under:
Policy for Feeding and Caregiving of Street Dogs in Goa
Designation of Feeding Areas.— 1) Feeding of the community dogs has to be done in areas designated by the nominees of Department of AHVS, Directorate of Health Services, and DSPCA, in consultation with Resident Welfare Associations/Co-operative or Housing Societies (involving feeder aggrieved residents) or Municipality/Panchayat (in case RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies is not available).
2) While determining the "designated area", the committee has to be conscious of the fact that every community dog is a territorial being and therefore, community dogs must be fed and tended to at places within their territory. All dogs cannot be herded into one spot for the purpose of feeding them. Keeping in mind that community dogs live in packs, hence, ideally, each pack should be earmarked a different designated area for feeding, even if that means designating multiple areas in a locality. Feeding spots for dogs in gated societies must be in a secluded area of the colony or a back lane.
3) Public cause ways, public streets, pedestrian paths and footpaths which are regularly used by the public for commuting are to be avoided while feeding community dogs, unless designated as feeding sites.
4) Service lanes not being frequently used for ingress and egress may be used to feed street dogs. Similarly, areas adjacent to the boundary walls of the houses which are not used for passage or do not have any exit/ entry points may also be used for feeding. Likewise, vacant lands may be used for this purpose.
5) The Designated Areas should be identified by a clearly displayed signboard indicating the feeding timings, in order to make the public aware of the same and so to caution them about accessing these areas at such times. The feeding timings shall be in two slots, one in the morning and one in the evening or night, for a specified period as may be found suitable. As far as possible, feeding shall be undertaken at a time when the density of human population tends to be minimal.
Role of caregivers.— 1) The caregivers should follow hygienic feeding techniques, OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES I No. 14 6TH JULY, 2023 and shall not feed uncooked food/raw meat to street dogs. Further, the caregivers shall remove all unwanted food left over by the dogs immediately after the feeding period has concluded. Dog feeding must not contribute to littering or dirtying any feeding site.
2) Caregivers shall endeavor to cause least inconvenience to people while feeding street dogs. They should avoid feeding street dogs immediately adjacent to areas in which children play, or people take walks, or that are otherwise crowded. Similarly, the area adjacent to the entrance to flats/houses must be avoided for feeding dogs.
3) No person shall restrict another from feeding dogs, unless it is causing harm to that person.
4) Residents who desire to care for street dogs should avoid confining them within their homes for some part of the day/night and releasing them on the streets for the rest of the day/night, as this alters the behaviour of the dogs towards other residents and makes them over protective of one house, while acting aggressively towards others.
5) Dog feeders, shall endeavour to ensure that the street dogs are vaccinated and sterilized. The community volunteers/ /feeders should bring to the attention of the concerned authorities if the dogs they are feeding have not been sterilised or vaccinated annually. The sterilized dogs have to be returned to their same areas. The dog feeders may also assist the AWOs/dog catchers engaged in the sterilization and vaccination programme. Caregivers should also regularly check the dogs they are feeding and note if the animals have any serious injuries requiring treatment they may inform the RWAs/AWOs/Co-operative or Housing Societies accordingly. Thus, the purpose sought to be achieved through feeding is to eventually reduce the street dog population, control rabies and ensure that the street animals are healthy, which is extremely important for the larger public good.
Role of DSPCA's/local bodies/RWAs/Co- operative or Housing Societies.— 1) Stray dog management is a mandate of Local Bodies. All dog feeders should be registered with the concerned DSPCA, who will in turn issue feeding cards to them and also monitor their movement. Also disputes be intervened and settled by DSPCA.
2) Municipalities/Panchayats at the request of the RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies and/or local authority shall be responsible for ensuring that the street dogs are registered, sterilized and vaccinated.
3) It is also the responsibility of community residents to get their street dog population sterilized through an NGO engaged in dog sterilization programme.
4) It shall be the duty and obligation of every Resident Welfare Associations/Housing Societies/co-op. Housing Societies or Municipality/Panchayat (in case RWA/Co- operative or Housing Societies is not available) to ensure that every community dog in every area has access to food and water in the absence of caregivers or community dog feeders in the said area.
5) If any of the street/community dogs is injured or unwell, the RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies shall endeavour to secure treatment for such dog by taking it to the nearest veterinarian available.
6) DSPCA shall ensure that every Resident Welfare Association/Co-operative or Housing Society, or Municipality/Panchayat (in case RWA/Co-operative or Housing Society is not available), shall have an Animal Welfare Committee, which shall be responsible for ensuring compliance of the provisions of the PCA Act and ensure harmony and ease of communication between caregivers, feeders or animal lovers and other residents. The residents and the members of the RWA/Co- operative or Housing Society as well as the street dog feeders have to act in harmony with each other and not in a manner which shall lead to unpleasant circumstances in the colony.
7) Every RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies shall endeavour to form Guard and Dog partnerships and in consultation with OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES I No. 14 6TH JULY, 2023 the local Police Dog Squad, the dogs can be trained to make them effective as guard dogs and yet friendly to those who live in the colony.
Enforcement of the Policy/Guidelines.— 1) All Law enforcement authorities shall ensure that no harassment or hindrance is caused to the persons feeding street dogs at the designated feeding spot and give them any assistance if found necessary. They shall also ensure proper implementation of the AWBI Revised Guidelines on Pet dogs and Street dogs dated 26th February, 2015.
2) All Dy. Collectors shall protect street animal feeders when called upon to do so They should give equal oppor tunity to citizens/members of the local community for redressal of grievances related to street dogs.
3) No owner/person in charge of any dog,
shall:
(a) Allow the pet dog to roam at large on any public street or public place without being harnessed and without being secured by a chain lead, if he knows that the dog is likely to annoy or intimidate any person.
(b) Allow any ferocious dog to be at large without being harnessed and without being secured by a chain lead.
(c) Encourage or urge any dog to attack,
annoy or intimidate any person or
(d) Knowing or having reason to believe that any dog belonging to him or in his charge has been bitten by an animal suffering or reasonably suspected to be suffering from rabies, fail or neglect to give immediate information of this fact to the Mission Rabies hotline, or give information which is false.
4) If any dog repeatedly attacks other dogs or residents, such dogs must be removed to a private shelter by the RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies or DSPCA.
5) It shall be the duty and responsibility of the RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies or Municipality/Panchayat and all Government authorities including enforcement authorities like Police to provide all assistance and ensure that no hindrance is caused to the caregivers or feeders of community dogs. It shall be the duty and responsibility of the jurisdictional SHO to ensure that peace and harmony is maintained amongst the residents, care-givers and community dog feeders and there is no harassment to any caregiver or community dog feeder from feeding community dogs in the manner specified.
6) In case, any resident/s or the RWA/Co- operative or Housing Societies have any grievance with regard to any act of caregivers and feeders, in relation to feeding of community dogs, they shall, at the first instance, seek redressal of their grievance through a process of dialogue and discussion through the Animal Welfare Committee failing which the said issue may be brought to the notice of the DSPCA through the RWA/Co- operative or Housing Society. The DSPCA shall ensure expeditious resolution of the issues. So also, if a citizen feels threatened by the street dogs, he/she may approach the Village head, failing which they may address their concern to the District head (Chairperson of the DSPCA) for the redressal of their grievance.
7) Despite the law clearly prohibiting cruelty to animals, including stray dogs, Government employees sometimes take a position in complete violation of well settled law. The Government of India (Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Department of Personnel and Training) has issued an Office Memorandum dated 26th May, 2006 which notes that a Government servant who indulges in act of cruelty to animals shall be liable for action under Prevention of Cruelty to Animal Act. He/she may also be liable under CCS (Conduct) Rules for conduct unbecoming of a Government servant. The Office Memorandum also requires the DSPCA to bring the O. M. to the notice of RWA/Co-operative or Housing Society of Government employees that while residents and associations are free to address institutional agencies for redressal of their OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES I No. 14 6TH JULY, 2023 grievances, no resident/association will interfere with the freedom of other residents in tending animals etc.
8) There is a need to spread awareness that animals have a right to live with respect and dignity. DSPCA alongwith Mission Rabies shall carry out an awareness campaign in association with various Newspapers, Television, Radio Channels and Social Media platforms. DSPCA shall also circulate these Guidelines to various Resident Welfare Associations, the Police Department, Municipal Authorities, Panchayat Bodies, etc.
Miscellaneous.— 1) The Municipalities and Panchayats shall coordinate with/seek assistance from the DSPCA and urgently introduce licensing for Pets, with the stipulation of compulsory sterilization, micro chipping, and for pedigree dogs, identification of source of procurement (to identify illegal breeders).
2) The Local Bodies along with AH&VS Department and the State Monitoring Committee (constituted as per SC directions of 09-03-2016 in SLP 691/2009) should endeavour to ensure the sterilization of 70% of Street Dogs (including annual increases) at the earliest, and at any rate within 5 years from the date of this Policy.
ANNEXURE
AWBI Guidelines for feeding/Caregiving and Keeping of Pets vide Circular dated 26th February, 2015
1. Keeping of Pets is a legal right as per the Supreme Court of India in AWBI vs Nagaraja and Ors and no person or association/society may ban pets.
2. Abandoning a Pet is unlawful.
3. Pet owners are advised to ensure that their pets are healthy and clean. Adequate health care and regular vaccination needs to be ensured. Sterilization of pets is advised as India has an excessive dog population.
4. Pet Owners are advised to leash their Pets in public spaces and within an area controlled by an RWA/Co-operative or Housing Society and to clean up any defecation so as to maintain hygiene.
5. Pet Owners are advised to harness and lead on a leash the aggressive Pets in public areas controlled by RWA's/Co-operative or Housing Societies.
6. RWA's/Co-operative or Housing Societies shall not ban Pet owners from using lifts for their Pets.
7. RWA's/Co-operative or Housing Societies may require proper control of Pets (use of leash etc.) in common areas/gardens, but cannot arbitrarily ban Pet Owners from using such areas.
8. Barking of dogs, and other natural functions of such Pets, cannot be grounds for any action against owners. However, incessant barking can disturb neighbors. Hence, pet owners are advised to make every effort to keep their dogs quiet, particularly during night hours.
9. Any byelaws introduced by any RWA/Co- operative or Housing Societies either by way of an AGM or in any other manner, banning the keeping of Pets is illegal and void, and RWA's/Co-operative or Housing Societies should take corrective action to delete such unlawful byelaws.
10. Should any RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies seek to intimidate or harass Pet Owners or Street Animal feeders, or introduce unlawful byelaws to do so or non compliance of said guidelines, then the State/District Registrars, upon receiving complaints and evidence, shall de-register such RWA's/Co-operative or Housing Societies.
11. Should any RWA/Co-operative or Housing Societies intimidate a Pet Owner or harass them into abandoning their Pet, then such RWA/Co- operative or Housing Societies shall be held culpable for criminal intimidation, and shall also be subject to prosecution under such provisions of the IPC if such Pet dies as a consequence or is seriously injured.
It is to be understood that, any pet domesticated dog (living in a house), once it is left out of the house unattended, it becomes a part of street dog population for the purpose of vaccination and sterilization.
