On population of street dogs in the communities
Street dogs are those who do not have a home or who, belonging to one, spend the totality or part of the day outside their home, either by carelessness of their owners, abandoned or being born in the street. According to data from the “Animal Heroes” organization dedicated to animals aid and protection, Mexico is the country in Latin America with the highest number of street dogs around 23 million canines that roam the streets of the country, this figure of 2014It must have exceeded that number because it is estimated that the percentage of dogs in street or abandonment is increased by 20%. Today pets are treated with greater care and on many occasions one more member of the family becomes, this is one of the most important factors in the growth and development of this industry. "Likewise, changes in lifestyles, where the preference for having fewer children and, winging up, grows the appeal of having a pet, led the industry to register an important rise in their income" (Alejandro, 2020). One of the strongest trends in the middle and a half/high class is to have a pet at home. In the country, the growth of this segment and the continuous increase in housing are some of the factors that promote the market that is dedicated to providing services for pets. "The number of pets in Mexican homes is increasing and is the entrance door of an industry that still has the opportunity to grow in the country" (Anonymous, 2017) is very important that the inhabitants of San Martín Texmelucan believeawareness about the importance of sterilization in their pets and all the responsibilities that it entails, since in different communities of the city there are dogs that have owners, however, they spend most of the time on public roads and most of theseThey have not been sterilized causing them to reproduce without control."It is estimated that in the municipality of San Martín Texmelucan there are at least 23 thousand dogs without owner or in street situation" (Anonymous, 2020)
The overpopulation of stray dogs is a latent problem today, since it affects the entire community and not only the dogs as such, since the fact that they are on public roads makes it a constant danger, since I knowTheir feces pollute the air we breathe or safety problems, some jauriah can cause damage to people or road accidents. Pollution, a dog approximately half liter a day and defecates on average 200 grams. Secretions that are going to give to the atmosphere creating problems such as allergies and infections (Diana, 2017) is estimated up to 40% decrease in the number of dogs in San Martín Texmelucan, after the regulation for the responsible tenure regulations entered into forcePets and sterilization days, an animal protection law was also created, which seeks to create work alliances with animal protective associations, so that this way is signed, agreements and participation agreements in the city are signed;It also seeks to work in the culture of adoption of street dogs, however we know that it is a slow process, because it must be guaranteed that whoever adopts a pet is a responsible person, gives him the adequate love and attention of a lifeworthy. New alternatives are being developed to be able to control the overpopulation of abandoned dogs such as contraceptive croquettes and injections to inhibit the stages of heat or reproduction of females, however, today other methods are used to moderate dog growth.
