Chile has a large population of street dogs. The term "stray" would be a misnomer as the animals are well feed, well socialised and tolerated by the locals. The locals feed the animals and leave bowls of water out for them. In fact they could better be seen as neighbourhood pets, that live outside, with many owners.Plaza de Armas is a mecca for locals, tourists, dogs and in particular rock doves. For fun the dogs would stalk ...
... chase ...
... watch (note another puppy under the bench)...
... and occasional catch a rock dove.
After a lick, the bird would be released to fly away, apparently done the worse for ware.
A favourite trick of this German Shepard would be to stay near kids feeding the birds and then explode into action once a critical mass of pigeons was reached.
