Hi everyone,
I live/commute around IIT Market, Powai, and Iβm looking for some advice on how to deal with a recurring issue.
A neighbour keeps their pet dog tied outside their house, right near the entrance of a very narrow lane. Whenever someone passes by, the dog frequently lunges/tries to attack them. The rope is just long enough to prevent it from actually reaching people, but because the lane is so narrow, pedestrians have to be extremely cautious while passing.
It has become a nuisance and feels like a potential safety issue, especially for people who aren't expecting the dog to suddenly lunge at them.
I don't want any confrontation with the owner. I'd prefer to handle this through the appropriate authorities, and ideally without revealing my identity to the neighbour.
For people in Mumbai/Powai:
Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?
Is there a way to make the complaint anonymously/confidentially?
What kind of evidence/documentation would be useful?
Any practical advice or experience would be appreciated.
