The report appears to be over a year old which is odd. I lived in Taiwan for 5 years where my neighbour had 2 large male pitbulls. They were a delight. Friendly and funny. In Thailand I have 6 dogs at our place in the country in Rayong. They will only go for you if you invite yourself unannounced through the main gates. I have never ever had a problem with soi dogs in all the time I have been in Thailand, having first arrived in 1961, worked here in the 1980s, and retired here in 1993.
