“Bro, we feed dogs so they don’t become aggressive and bite people.”
That’s not how canine behavior works.
Dogs have core behavioral needs: physical activity, mental stimulation, social interaction, and instinct-driven behaviors like exploring, sniffing, and foraging. When these needs aren’t met, theor energy gets redirected into problem behaviors such as barking, chasing, restlessness, and territorial aggression.
Earlier, these needs were naturally fulfilled. Dogs had to roam, search, and expend energy to find food, which regulated both their activity and behavior. You’ve replaced that with easy, concentrated feeding. The result isn’t calmer dogs, but dogs with unmet behavioral drives that now express themselves through chasing, barking, and guarding.
Feeding points don’t pacify dogs; they create territorial clusters, a well-known trigger for aggression and bite incidents.
And the bigger issue is the feeders' complete dismissal of human safety. Take this person, so convinced of his own “compassion” that he dumps food near a busy highway, where packs form and put drivers at risk. Try reasoning with him, and instead of showing compassion to your concerns, this compassionate man will come back with his NGO friends and threaten you.
