Dogs on goa beaches

I have just returned to Australia after spending 3 weeks in Benaulim, Goa, with friends from the UK.

It is a wonderful place. The sea is clean and warm, I am used to very cold sea temperatures.

The only complaint I have is the dogs, dogs everywhere, puppies, pregnant dogs and worst of all howling and barking dogs. Why doesn't someone clean the problem up. They serve no purpose, they defecate on the sand, fight and I saw in my three weeks a family of puppies skin and bone go from 6 puppies to 2.

It is a problem, tourists do not like it and try to feed them which is not the answer, culling them is the only answer. So why isn't someone doing something about it.
