I have noticed the terrible state many of the dogs in my neighbourhood are in. And to make matters worse, some people suspect them of carrying and spreading the virus, thereby preventing the possibility of these animals finding shelter. With barely any human interaction, the dogs on the streets are finding it difficult to eat with each passing day. They seem weaker and more helpless. It is evident that they are suffering, one simply needs to look at them to comprehend their state. The situation for these dogs and perhaps many other animals, is dreadful. I therefore, urge the responsible authorities to show some compassion upon these animals so that they could at least be fed and taken care of.
