The President,
Residents' Welfare Association,
Sunder Colony, Agra
Subject: Complaint against rough treatment of stray dogs
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to bring to your kind attention a matter of serious concern. The stray dogs in our colony are regularly fed and vaccinated by the RWA, and they are generally calm and docile in nature.
However, I have been deeply disturbed to observe that several residents are mistreating these dogs — hitting, chasing, and shooing them away aggressively. Such rough behaviour frightens the dogs unnecessarily and causes them to react defensively, making them appear aggressive when they are naturally gentle.
I kindly request you to issue a notice reminding residents to treat these animals with compassion and respect.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
Rita/Rahul
