There is a belief, and probably some truth to it, that the Town Board doesn't poison dogs that wear collars, assuming that dog has an owner and is cared for. However putting a collar on all the strays will backfire and the poisoner won't use that criteria any more putting in jeopardy the other dogs.
Thanks for clarifying that Elbert - I was totally confused about the intention of this subject too. ScubaLdy, I hope you are not serious about putting our pets at risk with this plan.
What happened to all the initiatives after the big poisoning to control the stray population in a humane way? Has Saga changed their policy yet not to release animals without owners, because that would probably eliminate the necessity for the Town Board to poison strays.
