the authorities in response to Ah Boy's case when he was caught and culled in Sep 2007 - for straying, which means, he stepped outside the gate of his dwelling place.
One year has come and gone. I guess their stand stays the same.
".... AVA requires all dogs kept by owners to be licensed and when in public places must be on leash. This rule applies also to those dogs kept on the farms. Unless the gate and fence of the premises are properly secured so that the dogs do not escape from the compound, the owners must confine the dogs within the farm by use of leash or kennels or enclosures.
We appreciate people who take in stray dogs, sterilise and license them. AVA does not have a Catch-Neuter-Release (CNR) program for stray dogs as sterilised stray dogs allowed to roam freely on the streets can pose a danger to the public."
