Semper paratus 3,017 Posted March 8, 2019 Just a friendly reminder. By the way, has anyone ever seen a dog catcher here ? You know the legal ones, not those supplying certain restaurants. http://www.chanrobles.com/republicacts/republicactno9482.html#.XIInrlQzaM_ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have several dogs on our street that are allowed to roam by their owners, and the dog catchers went around to check ownership and take any dogs that were unclaimed. Our dogs never leave our yard, so they didn't come to our house. They were only interested in the apparent strays. Personally, I wish they would come back and catch some more of the dogs that aren't being taken care of properly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
to_dave007 5,349 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Saw municipal dog catcher vehicle Just once in Toledo (at least I THINK it was Toledo). There was cages in back.. with dog in one. Was several years ago. Out here in province the dogs must contend with faster traffic.. Dead dogs on highway seen multiple times every day. No way you can brake or swerve to avoid them all without putting people at risk. Edited March 8, 2019 by to_dave007 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe tie them on a three foot chain in the sun with no shelter or water. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The worst place from my experience with dogs on the road is the West coast of Cebu.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Semper paratus 3,017 Posted March 9, 2019 Our sub and the surrounding area is so bad with loose dogs that most people are afraid to walk at all. One poor older lady in our sub was shuffling around harmless and as friendly as can be was bitten for no reason. The poor ole gal took the shots. Next to nothing is enforced in Dumaguete. And we also have those that leave the dog(s) all day with no water. And the dogs bark like crazy because that is the only exercise they get. Shameful. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyMan 21,971 Posted March 19, 2019 Took my dog down to the Municipyo for a rabies shot today. People scattered as we walked there. 6 staff in the office and nobody else. 5 minutes in and out. No excuse for not getting the dog vaccinated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
