Bali dogs have different "expectations" to Australian house pet dogs.
They do not expect to be patted and stroked all the time (and in fact may resent this and respond unkindly!)
Do not let this spoil your holiday.
The really mangy examples have been largely cleared from the busier areas, although you still see some in quieter areas (saw a bad example at Echo Beach not long ago)
BAWA will appreciate your support.
I buy dog biscuits and food from stores for dogs on the street at random (and cats), but you may not feel comfortable with this.
It is recognised that many families and individuals are disadvantaged in Bali, but it is also great to hear of another humanitarian who cares about the street animals too.
