过去八年间，我们在槟城岛为超过8700只狗进行了绝育手术，但一个残酷的现实摆在我们面前：如果新的流浪狗不断涌入街头，我们无法通过绝育手术彻底消除流浪狗。
在实际工作中，我们遇到一些喂养者，他们只想继续喂养流浪狗，却拒绝配合我们进行绝育手术，即使我们支付所有费用也无济于事。我们只是请求他们帮忙引诱那些只信任他们的狗进入我们的陷阱。然而，由于喂养者没有按约定出现，我们白白等了几个小时，却一无所获。
有些狗主人请求我们收养他们不想要的小狗，因为他们从未给宠物狗绝育。一些农民和建筑工人阻止我们捕捉流浪狗，声称这些狗是他们的，他们想让这些狗繁殖。我们甚至还遇到过这样的情况：我们试图在公共道路上捕捉一只流浪狗，结果被一名仓库管理员用马来刀追赶。
一位主人养了两只未绝育的母狗，生了12只小狗，却告诉救援人员他想把它们全部放生，因为他想“像鸟儿一样给它们自由”。另一位主人在被告知遗弃狗是违法行为后，竟然反问：“那你们能拿我怎么样？”
这些只是几个令人痛心的例子。
我们理解人们对流浪狗的愤怒。没有人愿意被狗追赶、咬伤，或者与无人管束的狗一起生活在街头。但解决办法不能是无休止地抓狗，而任由不负责任的饲养、繁殖和遗弃行为继续存在。
多年来，我们一直倡导提供价格合理的绝育补贴、强制植入芯片、加强对遗弃和不负责任饲养行为的执法力度，以及强制对用于看家护院（例如农场、工厂、建筑工地、仓库和其他场所）的犬只进行绝育（并酌情给予豁免）。
经过8年的努力，我们已经为超过8700只狗进行了绝育手术，尽了自己的一份力。但仅靠非政府组织的力量无法解决这个问题。我们需要政策制定者从根本上解决问题。更完善的法律、更强有力的执法、负责任的养犬行为、绝育、植入芯片。
我们并非要求每个人都爱狗，而是要求建立一个能够保护民众、防止动物遭受痛苦并切实减少流浪狗数量的体系。因为如果不断有新的狗进入街头，我们将永远疲于应对这个问题。
After neutering more than 8,700 dogs across Penang Island over the past eight years, there is one difficult truth. We cannot neuter our way to zero stray if new strays keep entering the streets.
On the ground, we have encountered feeders who want to keep feeding free roaming dogs but refuse to cooperate to neuter, even when we pay for everything. All we asked for was their help to lure dogs that only trust them, into our trap. We waited for hours with no dogs because feeder didn't turn up as agreed.
We have owners asking us to take unwanted puppies because they never neutered their pets. We have farmers and construction workers stopping us from catching dogs because they claimed the dogs were theirs and wanted them to breed. We have even been chased away by a warehouse caretaker with a parang for trying to catch a free roaming dog on a public road.
One owner with 2 unspayed female dogs produced 12 puppies and told rescuer he wanted to release them all because he wanted to "give them freedom like birds." Another, when told abandoning dogs is illegal, simply asked,"So what can you do to me?"
These are only a few sad examples.
We understand why people are angry about stray dogs. Nobody wants to be chased, bitten or live with uncontrolled dogs on the streets. But the solution cannot be endlessly catching dogs while irresponsible ownership, breeding and abandonment continue.
For years, we have advocated for affordable neutering subsidies, compulsory microchipping, stronger enforcement against abandonment and irresponsible ownership, and compulsory neutering for dogs kept to guard farms, factories, construction sites, warehouses and other premises, with appropriate exemptions.
After 8 years and over 8,700 dogs neutered, we have done our part. But NGOs cannot solve this alone. We need policymakers to address the root causes. Better laws. Stronger enforcement. Responsible ownership. Neutering. Microchipping.
We are not asking everyone to love dogs. We are asking for a system that protects people, prevents animal suffering and actually reduces the number of strays. Because if new dogs keep entering the streets, we will forever be running behind the problem.
