They look so hungry. Is it a good idea to buy them food or will they become aggressive.

While it is incredibly tempting because they look cute, you should generally avoid feeding them directly near your sunbed or cafe table. Feeding them encourages them to beg aggressively from other tourists later, which creates nuisance issues.

If you genuinely want to help, the best way is to buy some dog food and give it to the local animal rescue charities, like Animal SOS Sri Lanka, who systematically feed, vaccinate, and treat the beach dogs safely.
