This photo taken on August 20, 2011 shows Rubaiya Ahmad playing with her dog at her apartment, which she shares with three dogs and six cats, in Dhaka. Two years after Rubaiya's collared, registered and vaccinated puppy was killed during an anti-rabies culling drive, the animal rights activist's campaign against the practice which kills up to 20,000 dogs annually has met with some success. Rubaiya set up Obhoyaronnyo (Sanctuary) and launched a campaign to convince authorities in Dhaka -- a fast-growing megacity of 13 million -- that culling is not the best way to deal with their 150,000-strong stray dog population
