Hello,

Today I, Shruthi and Mrs. Vijaya have visited autonagar Dog Pound.
When we were just about to enter the Autonagar street, we found a GHMC Stray Animal catching van and have noticed all dog catchers using ropes to catch the dogs. On our asking that how could they catch dogs with ropes since it is illegal, they took off the ropes. They said that since their nets were spoiled, they were using ropes. But we noticed that nets were alright and they have lied to us.
After they left, we went to Dog Pound. To our utter dismay we have seen the same shocking scenes which we witnessed earlier – Starving dogs with no water and food, non-operated and operated showcase dogs, injured dogs with no medical attention, whelping mothers with puppies, cramped cages, dead dogs…
When we saw a whelping mother with days old puppies, we informed that they weren’t supposed to to catch whelping mother unless the puppies are old enough. Sensing that the puppies were in danger at the risk of infections at that place we told them they could call Blue Cross, so that the mother and puppies would be sent there. Just then one of the staff called to Dr. P.Rama Krishna Rao and he talked on phone to Mrs. Vijaya and started abusing her and stated that they would let the dog and puppy die over there than send it to ‘Bloody Blue Cross’. We bared the humiliation for the sake of animals as we wanted to help them.
The dogs in the cages were really terrible, they were almost crying to us for their freedom (please leave us, we want to live). It was really horrible.
We wanted to feed the starving dogs as they were dying of hunger, so we immediately brought milk and bread to feed them. Upon seeing the unclean bowls with urine and vomitings we thought of giving them new bowls.
We went to bring some new bowls. While coming we observed that some of Dog catchers were still using ropes to catch a whelping mother with puppies. Upon seeing us they immediately threw the ropes and ran away. Even after informing them not to catch the dogs with ropes they were still back to their ways within minutes.
As soon as we arrived with bowls just then Veterinary Officer Dr. P.Rama Krishna Rao and Asst. Director Dr. M. Kiran Kumar arrived. Both of them immediately started threatening us for giving complaints against them. They literally started abusing us. They didn’t accept any food bowls or the food we brought. They said that we ‘Bloody Stupid volunteers’ are not allowed to help any animals and we can complain to Commissioner or Blue Cross or PFA or anybody else and they don’t care. They rejected our plea to help injured animals. They didn’t heed to us.We were suddenly surrounded by all the Junior Doctors and his GHMC staff. Rama Krishna Rao threatened that if any of volunteer comes, they would break their bones.
Don’t know, if we have been there some more time they would have definitely manhandled us. They were like MAFIA gang.
GHMC never mends its ways even though volunteers trying to help. They still use ropes to catch the dogs, cramp them, starve them…
Despite all these we have not seen any action taken against the compassionless Officials who are still making these animals suffer.
Regards,
Kalyan
