The number of animal cruelty cases reported everyday in Malaysia is just the tip of the iceberg, as most cases are never reported. Most animal abuse cases are often towards dogs and cats. Compelled to rectify this situation, third year students from KDU's School of Engineering designed humane dog trap cages. This project was parked under a module called the Capstone Project. The module also complies with the requirements of the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC), a body that accredits the engineering programmes conducted in Malaysian academic institutions.

Together with MAWA, KDU University aims to advocate the importance of treating stray dogs in an ethical and responsible manner.
