  1. Stray dog CONTROL IN JORDAN BY THE ABC PROGRAM (Animal Birth Control)

  2. Introduction The presence of stray dogs old order where dogs used to live with a man in the search for a suitable environment for subsistence and reproduction .And that's where communities continue to waste collection within the gatherings temporarily area, the presence of dogs to search for food , which is in abundance in this waste will continues. The presence of stray dogs within the communities cause number of problems and the most important is: Direct problems: - Cases of biting human , or the fear caused by the aggressive behavior of these animals. - Attacking poultry and pet animals or sheep.- There are problems due to human habits and traditions where others do not accept the existence of these dogs inside communities population.Indirect problems: - Causing traffic accidents. - Noise. - Transfer of zoonotic diseases and the most important is rabies. - The waste of all types of dogs.

  3. Classification of dogs (in Jordan)

  4. The traditional way for dogs control at municipality of Amman and the other municipalities was by : -Shooting (at GAM & other Municipalities ) -Poisoning ( at other Municipalities )

  5. Why does the Municipality want to kill Stray Dogs? • The Municipality is under pressure from certain sectors of the community who see the dogs as a nuisance, and afraid, also transmit of rabies, and most of the municipalities used hunting and poisoning to get rid of these dogs due to the speed of response to these methods to solve the problem , and because of its low cost . • The World Health Organization did not demonstrate any study and there was no evidence that get rid of the dogs lead to the disposal of rabies, So that lead global organizations and government searches for ways to control the presence of stray dogs ,more humane and more efficient to control the presence of them and problems arising from dogs presence.

  6. ? Also it shown by experience that the traditional way of controlling stray dogs by shooting or poisoning give us a poor output on the long run and did not solve this problem in the right way also there's a high risk by using these ways. By that we start to focus on this issue and start to look forward for changing these ways with an efficient way give preferable result ,by that we start the ABC program (animal birth control ) and such a program need highly corporation in the different sectors which interest with this problem to get a sufficient result It’s a fallacy to believe that killing street dogs will bring down their numbers. But castration them helps in reducing and stabilizing their population

  7. abc A program with the aim of reducing a stray dog population to a particular level and/or maintaining it at that level and/or managing it in order to meet a predetermined objective Animal Birth Control/ABC Program involves sterilizing street dogs, vaccinating them against rabies and releasing them back into the areas where they were picked up from.

  8. The current situation For the implementation of the program • We need the infrastructure and equipment which is: Traps. Necessary medication. Anesthesia guns. Cages. Dog grips. Cars. • We need a site. • We need training. • Media plan to cover the project. Photo album

  9. Graph shows the complaints and field trips to control stray dogs during the previous years

  10. Drawing shows the distribution of complaints of stray dogs during the past 2012-2013 at GAM

  11. Analysis of the internal environment Strengths 1 - The existence of a particular department at GAM application of methods and means of the Animal Welfare (vector control and animal welfare) representative by of Animal welfare division. 2 - provide specialized and qualified staff. 3 - provides statistical data and databases about complaints of stray dogs exist in the areas of GAM. 4 - The presence of the Animal welfare center and equipped with the tools and services needed in the area. 5 - provides operational resources of vehicles and specialized medical tools. 6 - multiple means of communication (radio Hua Amman. Communication channels social) represented by the Department of the communication at GAM.

  12. Analysis of the internal environment Weaknesses 1 - the lack of training courses to the staff (in many level). 2 - lack of human staff to cover all regions of the Greater Amman Municipality. 3- Shortage in some of the basic requirements for the application of the program. 3 - The lack of a database of dogs owned in Amman. 4 - and the lack of a data base showing density and distribution of real stray dogs in Amman.

  13. Analysis of the external environment Opportunities 1 - international trend toward activation of this program and the presence of international experiences to take advantage of it. 2 - The presence of co-operation of institutions and non-governmental actors 3 - Supporting senior management

  14. Analysis of the external environment Threats 1 - Lack of awareness and social culture among citizens. 2 - get rid of the owned dogs without regulation. 3 - the accumulation of waste inside the town leading to the emergence of dogs because of the abundance of suitable condition for the breeding and food. 4 - uncontrolled proliferation and unregulated breeding sheep in residential neighborhoods and on the border areas and the presence of dogs with this situation. 5 - The presence of border regions and municipalities on neighboring opened and infected with stray dogs. 6 - behaviors by citizens not to accept the presence of dogs in residential neighborhoods. 7 - the lack of laws and regulations for the organization of work in this field.

  15. Additional Polices and processes required in the implementation of strategies to control the stray dogs - Plan to find scan density of stray dogs. - Environmental control which appropriate for their living and breeding populations such as the removal of waste. - Sterilize and vaccinate dogs owned and non-owned so that it is reducing the transfer of common diseases. - Reliance on education and awareness to educate the community about the humanity ways to deal with stray dogs and most effective which lead to benefit to their environment and health. - Appropriate laws and legislation to take care of animals. - Euthanasia for dogs which is patient and aggressive.

  16. recommendations Working to produce legislation to ensure that the application of international standards for animal welfare is adopted and abided by. Development of Units for Animal Welfare in each municipalities to coordinate with each other in Jordan. Introducing the subject of Animal Welfare in the curriculum of colleges of Veterinary Medicine and raise the level of interest by the Veterinarians through seminars and workshops specialized in the field. Because dog ecology is linked with human activities, control of dog populations has to be accompanied by changes in human behavior to be effective. Formulate strategies to local or even global awareness programs linked to raise awareness of the rights to the concept of animal welfare as interest and benefit to human and his health to develop into actual behavior.
