Argentina legalizes killing stray dogs that scavenge garbage dumps and obstruct

Although the ‘problem’ of stray dogs is the cause of human beings and the lack of awareness to prevent abandonment, encourage the adoption and sterilization of pets, in the end, are stray dogs who suffer the consequences.
This is reflected in a bill that has been approved in Argentina and that has legalized the killing of dogs that “impede traffic and break up garbage bags”, in accordance with ordinance 6933/18.

In addition, this town in Argentina has no shelters for dogs, so it was decreed that now it will be legal to kill dogs that “impede free transit,” because it can be “potentially dangerous.”
The new law has generated a lot of controversies both in Argentina and beyond because it also limits the inhabitants of the place to have a maximum of two dogs per household, and not only legalizes the slaughter of stray animals but “punishes whoever offers water and food to stray dogs. “
