About Stray Buddy
Who are we?
We are a group of individuals with hands-on experience in managing community dogs collectively, involving those representing residents welfare associations as well as colony animal caretakers and feeders.
We promote living in harmony together. Our stepwise and methodical approach has resulted in a puppy-free and rabies-free colony in South Delhi, where community dogs are well fed and taken care of by citizens.
We developed practical tools and collated resources based on good practices of other colonies that we would like to share with others. We encourage every neighbourhood in Delhi (and the rest of India) to work through a similar positive and systematic approach to control their free roaming dog population, eradicate rabies, and reduce perceived dog nuisance in their community while acting within the framework of the law.
Our aim is to co-exist and promote well-being for all creatures, while respecting both human and animal rights.
Our Vision
As enshrined in the Constitution of India, we envisage compassionate citizens who coexist with community animals in their neighbourhood. The free roaming dog population slowly declines, rabies is eradicated and perceived dog menace reduced to a minimum due to positive and sustained collective action.
We acknowledge that animals are sentient beings. We have compassion for stray animals. We promote coexistence between humans and dogs. We encourage positive action instead of negative reactions.
We operate within the framework of law.

“I am so happy to see Stray Buddy promoting harmonious coexistence of people and community dogs. This is the best way to deal with dog-human conflicts in our cities. This tool is user-friendly and can be replicated by whoever wants to work on resolving these issues.”
