      "I strongly agree with the mandatory spaying or neutrality, hence I have been witnessing the negative aspects of not following this law over the years. Many countries are struggling with stray dogs, and laws like this one are extremely helpful in improving the quality of life and reducing the exceeded number of animals that suffer the outcome of overpopulating the cities and villages. It would also reduce the number of abandoned or killed animals due to their rapidly increasing number. I always encourage people to follow this recommendation or to take their pets to different free spaying campaigns."
