"Keeping Stray Dogs Does Not Mean...": Supreme Court Cautions Pet Owner

"Keeping stray dogs does not mean, you will take them to streets, fight and affect the lives of the people...," the bench observed.

The Supreme Court today refused to entertain a plea by a woman seeking protection for over 60 stray dogs whom she claimed to foster.

A bench of Justices MR Shah and MM Sundresh asked the lawyer appearing for the petitioner to file a plea seeking impleadment in a similar matter pending before a different bench.

"Keeping stray dogs does not mean, you will take them to streets, fight and affect the lives of the people...," the bench observed.

"As it is reported that on the similar issue, another bench is considering the matter, the present writ petition is not entertained," the bench said in its order.
