I know that Russia has always had issues with stray dogs; they have hundreds of thousands of strays in their cities and its reported that they even ride their subways. The dogs are reportedly friendly and pose no threat to humans. However due to the Olympics being held in Sochi, the government has decided it would be best to remove the problem – which seems to be a startling trend in how problems are taken care of in Sochi. They hired a private organization to euthanize the canines, that were used as guard dogs for the construction workers. Now that the workers are gone the dogs have been left to fend for themselves.
