Trap-Neuter-Return-Manage (TNRM) is a humane alternative to culling for managing and reducing dog populations. TNRM relies on sterilisation of dogs so that they are unable to breed, leading to a gradual decline in numbers.
Trap: Humanely trapping free-roaming dogs living in rural or industrial areas and transporting them to a veterinary clinic where they are sterilized.
Neuter: Surgical sterilization process that removes the reproductive organs of the dog (ovaries and uterus of females, and testicles of males) so that it can no longer reproduce. A qualified veterinarian performs this surgery; it is generally a quick, safe and painless procedure as the dog is placed under general anaesthesia. After the surgery, the dog is back to normal in a few days.
Upon a vet advice, TNR dogs may also receive a health check, vaccinations and are treated for any visible medical conditions. Sterilized dogs are marked to indicate that they have been neutered, in order to prevent them from undergoing the same procedure a second time.
Release: After surgery, the dogs recuperate for up to a week before they are released at their original capture site, where they will continue to live as they did before sterilization.
Manage:(microchips implanted) Once dog populations are sterilized, existing feeders can then provide regular food via responsible feeding methods so the dog can live out the rest of its life. Managing the population is important as complaints regarding these dogs or irresponsible feeding/littering are likely to lead to culling, regardless of whether the dog is sterilized. Managing a dog population also involves vaccinating the dogs to ensure that they are protected against certain diseases providing medical aid to injured, sick or abandoned dogs, and dealing with stray-related complaints in the area wherever engagement is possible.
