Successful Protest to Protect School’s Stray Dogs

This seems to be an example of a successful campaign by those who actually know the dogs to change an authority’s stray dog management intentions (full story here). The dean of a high school in Taipei was going to indiscriminately round up all stray dogs apparently for euthanasia but changed his tack after protests from both faculty members and students.

Hopefully he has now learned that many people actually value these dogs and a much better strategy is just to tackle individual animals if they become a problem.
