Recently, Weixin County, Yunnan issued the "Notice on Civilized Dog Raising and Prohibition of Dog Walking in Weixin County". One of the contents is as follows:
Dog walking is forbidden in the county town. Once discovered, the first warning will be given; the second county city The competent authority will, in accordance with the provisions of Article 46 of the "Zhaotong City Management Regulations": impose a fine of 50 yuan up to 200 yuan; contact the public security agency for the third time to arrest and kill. Once the announcement of
was issued, it immediately caused a heated discussion on the Internet.
The public opinion is basically one-sided:
"Some netizens think that raising a dog hurts the world? You can't even walk? If there is a civilized dog-raising and civilized dog walking, I believe no one will object, but the prohibition is very funny."
"three times" Killing the dog directly afterwards? The dog is too wronged. The dog didn’t recruit you and didn’t mess with you. The key is to see the owner of the dog consciously and being too unfriendly to the dog."
and netizens joked: It is recommended that bear children should be forbidden to go out. I was scared to hear the bear yelling loudly.
Of course, some netizens who support them think:
"This is all forced by dog owners who don’t vaccinate dogs, leash, and clean up their feces. But when the dog owners do this, the county committee has done so well? Citizens? You have the right to raise a dog, and you also have to bear these responsibilities. The rights and obligations are equal. Don’t blame others for restricting your rights if you don’t do your own obligations. You just wrong the dog owners with good style.” Z1z
Snail Jun also I did a small survey around me, and nearly 95% of Kunming citizens said that they don't agree with this policy.
Among them, Mr. Li thinks:
"I saw this on the hot search today, but there was a lot of scolding underneath. As a Yunnanese, he also expressed helplessness when he saw such news. Because this matter is not a dog problem, in fact It's a human problem."
Actually, there are incidents of vicious dogs hurting people, but it has a lot to do with the dog owner. For example, when walking a dog without a leash, some owners don’t even have a dog’s health certificate. Those who are undocumented and not tied should indeed be managed.
Now that the public opinion has reacted so strongly, it is no longer a matter of whether or not to love dogs, but whether the policy is promulgated through research and demonstration. Is this one size fits all really appropriate?
In fact, this is still a matter of improving the quality of the people. Now that the relationship between humans and animals is becoming hostile, perhaps the reason is that they don’t want accidents within the jurisdiction...
On November 15, Weixin County also responded: Weixin County We attach great importance to the public opinion caused by dog management regulations, and we are convening multiple departments to study this matter. “Urban management must be regulated, but everything must be in accordance with the law. Of course, the official approach of
has some truth, just like some people say, as long as The base of uncivilized dog owners is large enough, and a one-size-fits-all policy will always exist. After all, it is impossible to have enough law enforcement resources to carry out targeted law enforcement on dogs.
However, since ancient times, dogs have been with humans for the longest time. For animals, if this policy is really implemented, I don’t know if it is the sorrow of dogs or humans.
