Street Dog's Life
Street dogs, known in scientific literature as free-ranging urban dogs[1] or urban free-ranging dogs, are unconfined dogs that live in cities. They live virtually wherever cities exist, especially in the developing world and the former second world, and the local human population allows. Street dogs may be pets which have strayed from or are simply allowed freedom by their owners; these are commonly called stray dogs.[3] Alternatively, they may never have had an owner. Street dogs may be stray purebreds, true mixed-breed dogs, or unbred landraces such as the Indian pariah dog. Street dog overpopulation can cause problems for the societies in which they live, so campaigns to spay and neuter them are sometimes implemented. They tend to differ from rural free-ranging dogs in their skill sets, socialization, and ecological effects.
