ARISTIDE

All I know that the dog loves the owner but the dog also doesn't want his life to end as well. We don't have the right to take his life and he didn't want to die particular the dog love the owner so much. Why not try changing your behavior toward him first and see what happen.

Sorry may be in case of your dog the issue is not "'obsessive" rather more like a dominant case

I agree with taotoo

Before you do anything I wish you could see some of the Dog Whisperer here on Youtube

Please type in "The Dog Whisperer Season 1 Episode 19 [feat. Sunshine and Teddy]"

And other episodes about dog aggression and see how Cesar Millan do it. Give him a chance. At lease if it doesn't work at lease you've tried everything.

PLEASE

Hear;s an excerpt

Dealing with obsessive dog behaviors

Obsessive dog behaviors and dog fixations can become as seriously harmful as addictions are for humans. When we laugh at a dog that is fanatically mad over a toy, a bone, a shaft of light, a game of fetch, or the neighbor's cat, it's like laughing at someone who is a falling-down drunk.

Sure, his behavior looks comical at the moment, but the truth is, he's truly got no physical or psychological control over himself.

Someday, he may really hurt himself and those around him. That's exactly what obsessive behavior is to a dog - an addiction. An interesting fact is that the term addiction derives from the Latin word addicere, to sentence. When we allow our dogs' habits to progress to the point of obsession and/or addiction, we are actually "sentencing" them to a very frustrated, unhappy existence.

Correcting obsessive dog behaviors

Make sure your dog is properly exercised and is not living with pent-up energy. Most of the time an obsession is something that the dog has discovered can work as an outlet for anxiety, frustration, or suppressed energy.

Correct obsessive/possessive behavior immediately: this is where the importance of knowing your dog comes in. You must learn to recognize the physical cues and energy signs that your dog is getting into an obsessive state, and stop her at level one before she escalates to level ten. Your job should be at that very moment to correct the dog, to bring her to the highest level of submission, keeping the toy or object of obsession (if that's what it is) next to her until she moves away from it voluntarily. Most people will snatch a toy away and say, "No!" By doing this, they can escalate the obsession into a higher level - making the object prey, and making you a potential target. Your dog may not want to bite a family member, but she's in a state now where she can't stop on her own. Remember, dogs don't rationalize.

Or it could derives from the word "foreign"!! English diplomat and French were here at the same period so we never know.

I get pissed off when white people call other white people 'farangs'

No excuse for being a racist bigot when you SHOULD know better.

I think you are wrong.

Farang comes from the word "French" in French literally:

FRANÇAIS ... FARANGSET ... FARANG

Remember that France administered Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia) until the early 20th century.

No insulting or derogatory sense then.

Thai also call African people farang sometime, it doesn't mean anything. Sometime an Asian with an American accent are called farang as well. Farang in Thai never has any racial meaning at all.

Shop house is perfect only problem for those who like to BBQ in the backyard and like dogs

Problem is even with some nice old grandpa or granny expats who has been here in Thailand for over 25 years and still can't pronounce things right or say the right things. There must be problem with these Thai language schools particularly the pronunciation department. There are also some other cultural things that should be learn as well because sometimes they are more important to learn than learning the Thai alphabets. E.g. It's considered pretty rude to put your feet on the table yet many farangs still do it! Not ending a Thai sentence with the word "krub or ka" is also rude but still, hardly any farang say it! Why? My parents would punish me hard for not saying "krub or ka" at the end of the sentence. Many misunderstandings and problem could be avoid. I wish I could have my own class.

I also add mince cilantro with the minced onion or shallot.

Isn't rice pilaf just white rice/wild rice with pieces of vermicelli (the coils that you cut up with a pair of scissors)?

The way I make it is..
Saute about 2 tablespoons minced onion or shallot until translucent in olive oil or other oil or butter.
Add 1 cup rice, saute at low heat until rice turns opaque (5 minutes?) , sprinkle some salt in..
Add 2 cups broth (normally I use chicken), bring to a boil. Add dash of thyme or a few sprigs of fresh thyme, a bay leaf and a spring of parsley. Put heat on lowest setting, cover and let cook for about 20 minutes.

So for me, no vermicelli.

Also, i checked the rice section at Tops KSK and did not see any pilaf. They did have a couple of risottos though.

That would be odd to have two major supermarkets in Maya

There were many rumours that Villa were going to open in Maya. I'm guessing they were put off by the rent one way or another.

what genres, song sample?

Have you tried moutain front condo?

Somehow, I feel sad as every time I hear this application announcement it means I'm another year older!

Honestly give them to those who need them, give them to jaapfries no problem.

They're a bunch of jazz musicians that I'm sure will appreciate the cds

Many disrespectful/ couldn't careless attitude when you asked the staff about the pasta could be from several reasons, 1) they didn't understand what you want them to do because they are not Thai and may be they didn't see the bugs in pasta as a problem. Or they were too nervous to talk to you as a different people from different cultural background. I'm sure if you talked to a normal Thai staff they will remove the products from the shelf.

Thanks for this forum I didn't know there is a Thai rolling tobacco! Hope there are better than Krong tip

Not sure check Dragon air, but there is one I'm sure

That would be the direct flight to Beijing I think

We are already getting flights in the middle of the night. Several landed around 3-4AM the past couple nights.

Yes, and lately some takeoffs after 1am as well.

Most China-bound flights takeoff heading north, and then veer East/NE over Sansai.

Which airline flies direct from CM to Beijing?

Yes you are here for cheap holidays in an uncivilized country. Australia has been known as an Asian haters for a long time, what about that ugly Pauline Hanson of yours. You are not all that nice people so don't come over here to Thailand live here and spit on us and expect to be respected.

Let me make it very simple for you. If you are black or even brown skin colour they don't like you and yes they are racist to the bone. People from the NE are looked down upon based on nothing but their skin colour. I am Australian born of mixed breed and went to a bar in Patts a few years ago. When I entered they bouncer said "Where you from?" I said Australia. Had a good think about it and on the way out asked him why and he said "You look same same India".

Thais also don't like how Indians like to travel around in huge groups, however having said that, Thais like doing the same thing!!!

Dont take it personally, put it down to you are in an uncivilized country where the people have been brainwashed from day one to worship their elite and treat all foreigners with disdain. I hate the word farang but I keep going because its a good cheap holiday most of time. I have found the poorer people in the provinces much nicer than some of the a***holes you meet in the cities.

I few sorry for the OP and yes you were poorly treated. You should talked to the manager in those hotels. However, in a hotel in BKK I've seen Indian tourists eating baked beans with their hands standing in the middle of the buffet room. One waiter told me many Indian tourist do that. Some of them whip their hands on the table. Almost all of them are looking for ways to cheats and shortcuts. I've seen farangs yell at Thai nurses at my hospital very often. It's easy for them to misunderstand you if you look Indian or Arab.

I like everything except the ugly 'bat' liked sign on the underpass.

Aristide with all due respect what does your post mean? ("Generally Thai people don't eat turtle soup of any kind and it is offensive to see someone kill the poor creature or eat them. I will personally report this to the Pantip website if I see any one do such thing.") Who or what is Pantip? (I know the Thai website, similar to Thaivisa as far as I understand, and there is an electronic appliance mall named that) And why would they care unless you just want to make trouble that someone is doing something you don't approve of (unless of course they are killing a protected species). I'm not tying to make trouble just might be misunderstanding your post and this is why I'm asking.

No problem junglechef, there is an animal lover forum on pantip website that many Thai will announce anything unusual in the country. I'm sure many Thai will not approve buying or eating turtle soup.

Yes I know but I was unable to locate the place off the Canal Rd you mention so I might as well buy from Baan Bakery Thanks

Aristide, your map and photo are incorrect for the bakery of this topic. Maybe it's the location of brother's Baan Bakery? Other bakery, the subject of this thread, is located off Canal Rd.

Been there yesterday the bread were indeed good both white and brown but they are more like toast not bread. The place is in the middle of a dump so I wouldn't bring my mother for a relax afternoon tea, but nice friendly owner guy, very proud man.
