You have to take your dog out of his crate. Put the crate on the band with the other luggage and carry your dog inside. Once inside your dog has to go back in his crate straightaway. 
In case, your dog is too heavy to be carried they may allow you to walk him inside.

Suksawad is definitely the place for timber and it's only 15km straight run from Doi Saket. Just turn right on 11 and it's a kilometre or so on your left. Massive selection and no doubt they'll deliver if need be.

There is another Suksawad on the 1014 (Doi Saket to BorSang road). About 1km from Doi Saket village.

Hi,

I'm sorry for the loss of your dog. 

I haven't heard ever of a breeder of Cavapoo's in Chiang Mai, or in the whole of Thailand for that matter.
I think, if you prefer this particular breed and you want to be more sure on healthy blood lines, proper care of parent animals and pups, and on a proper start on the highly necessary socialization, your best bet will be to import one from a trusted breeder in your home country.

Sorry to bump the thread and jump on the tail end. I will be leaving Thailand for China in a couple of months. I have a crate for my Doberman. Any suggestions which company/way to get her there. Any help is really appreciated.

 

ps. I did try the search function but it wasn't very fruitful.

For cargo I suggest Dynamic Air Cargo:

For accompanied/excess luggage I suggest to contact James from Relo4paws through their Facebook page or by phone:

Tel.: 089 664 8551

I've used them for years and they are both excellent.

He sounds like a real character, I've known a few of his cousins.

Yeh, aren't they all. :) 
Every dog/animal has his own fantastic peculiarities. 

Hans has a great combination of being affectionate and quite independent at the same time. He loves to be with you, but can be on his own quite well as well. Just not hours and hours in a row in the garden, while everyone else is in the house.  But then ... that wouldn't be my first choice for having a dog anyway. 

The other great trait I like so much in this dog is, that he is pretty smart and loves to do brain games. I find it fun seeing him trying to solve the puzzle.  Sometimes he needs my help a little to get on the right track and other times he beautifully figures it out himself and, in that way, keeps himself entertained for a little while.  

 

I think V-Sign Media can help you there:

Oh Gosh, I only read this thread now.
My heartfelt condolences for the loss of your gorgeous dog,  Sam, Mr. and Mrs. Meatboy.  
 

I'm so sorry to hear this. 
And sorry that it has been such a long time since my last visit. I hardly go into town anymore. Only if it's for work. 
You really will be missed. 

Lufthansa still takes snub-nosed dogs, but you have to go in person to their office. 

You can also send a message to James to Relo4paws on facebook. He and his company have lots of experience with sending dogs abroad. He may be able to help you.

Hi Sandy

 

Im also trying to bring a dog from Thailand to Australia.

Did you succeed in the end?  How did you do the 180 day quarantine requirement.

Any help or advice would be great

 

Many thanks

Maz

 

Things have changed. No more 180 days quarantine. Now a slight different kind of headache at still a high cost.

Inside these plastic travel boxes it can become quickly way too hot when in the back of a truck or even when in the shade. 

There is a facebook group called "vegetarian & vegan Chiang Mai" 

You may have a better change to get an answer there. :) 

There is an old(er) Chinese looking Thai handy-man in T. Luang Neua. 
You could give him a try. He speaks only Thai. 
His number: 086 one one 74 six zero six

You could join this facebook group and place an add. It's in the Thai language only.

I cannot answer your question, but maybe James from Relo4paws can help you. 
He mainly does export of pets, but maybe he knows about import as well. He is very often at the Animal Quarantine station in Bangkok anyway. 
You can contact him  through his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Relo4Paws/

He and his crew are extremely busy, so you may have to message him a few times before you get an answer.

I apologise for 'snipping' so much of your post, but only wanted to respond to this paragraph.

 

Agree entirely that "it's a case of weighing up the benefits against the possible side effects".

 

My vet recommended this product recently as for some reason there are MANY ticks where I live (god knows how they survive as there are v few mammals in the area!) resulting in tick 'epidemics' on my dogs every now and again - making tick-borne blood parasites a never ending problem....  To make it worse, one of my dogs is suffering serious problems that resulted in the blood parasites making his problems even worse.

 

Consequently, much as I hate giving any 'poisons' to my dogs either orally or via injections - Bravecto seems a risk worth taking in my (or more accurately, my dogs') particular circumstances.  It killed all the ticks on my healthy dogs pretty much immediately (although obviously it couldn't be given to my sick dog), and I haven't seen any ticks since.

I just got my first dog that most likely reacted very badly on the Bravecto. His kidney levels went through the roof. 

Also the owner of this dog weighed up the benefits against the possible side effects and decided to give his dog this product after doing quite some research first.  
But little did (could) he know that his dog likely was in a high risk group for side-effects of this product. Based on the beautiful shiny and soft coat and huge energy level of his dog, although a bit on the skinny side, he thought his dog was in splendid health. 
And yes, no more ticks. But in this case also almost 'no more dog' and likely a dog with permanent damaged kidneys. The dog is not yet 1-year old.  



 

Fly eggs and after that maggots. Maggots eats the flesh and can make huge painful wounds in a VERY short time. 

If so, you need the stuff/powder that kills the maggots. That serves as an antibiotic at the same time.  
I forgot the name of the powder, but most pet-shops have it. And your vet certainly will know. 

Indeed you first cut the hair around the wound. Then put the powder in it. You can repeat that a few times. Wait a little and you will see the maggots crawling out. You can take it out with a tweezer. 
Repeat a few times to make sure all maggots are out and or dead. If not, repeat the process. 
If done well you will see the wound starts healing in one or two days. 
You can put antibiotic powder in the wound and give the meds the vet provided. Also cover the wound lightly. Not too tied or the healing process slows down. 

Wishing both dog and owner a speedy recovery.

the past 18months apart from one mishap and some very dodgy test results locally,sam is very very well.

since we used controline[the first drop on] we ever used he has been tick free just 2 in the 18months.

but we are now having trouble getting stock from our supliers.as the main killer of ticks in controline is FIPRONIL i looked it up and found that cleartix contains the same,but the price is putting me off only 200bht.2doses.

have you ever used it or know if its any good.

Frontline also has Fipronil as has many tick/flea-shampoo's. 

I find it a bit hard to advise a product. We use, depending on the dogs Frontline, Tictox powder, coconut oil, or with one dog vinegar. 

I know of 2 dogs who almost suffered from kidney failure after getting a newish tick/flea medicine. The product worked like a dream, no more ticks. But then it was also almost 'no more dog'. 
So for now I stick to the  products I know.

welcome NIENKE its been quite awhile since i have seen you posting,so from meatboy and sam its great to know your still around.

Yes, still around and active in the doggy world.  Thank you. :)

I hope all is fine with you and Sam. :) 
 

Super! Thank you for that additional information, Khun Flare.
Very good to know.  :) 

The crematorium in Pratu HaiYa cremates pets: https://goo.gl/maps/uE65WcGJWkz 
It used to be 500 baht per pet. Not sure if that is still the same fee. 

Who oh who has lost his, her or their dog, or knows this dog? 

This dog  was found trotting on the superhighway between Yok and Star Avenue/Mc Donalds, and has been spotted by 2 more persons in that area, about 2 weeks ago.

He is an Jack Russel (type?) intact male of around 9 years of age.  
For an older dog his teeth are remarkable clean and sparkling white without any plague. And despite he was walking on the street he had no ticks or fleas, and his coat looked dirty, but beautiful dense and shiny. He is friendly towards people and ignores barking and growling dogs at the other side of the fence. He loooovvvvves females in heat, though.  He may be old, but his hormones are similar to that of a teenager. (tomorrow he will be neutered).
He is used to walking on a lead. And when given the chance he is a good climber (over the backseat of the car or fences). 
He is very good at begging for treats. 

On Facebook it has been shared via Santisook (Eng&Thai), some English Chiang Mai pages and only Thai: https://www.facebook.com/banmaasib/posts/1320252868019739?
pnref=story has been shared 160 times. 
Further, I have put up posters at the Animal Hospital and a pet shop behind Big C Extra, Ran Raksath, Rimping and a petshop in Star Avenue, Fah Sai Animal Hospital and Thong Lor. 
Unfortunately, till now we've got only 2 responses of people who have seen him walking.  

Nonetheless, from my observations I have strongly the feeling this dog has or had an owner who very much loves or loved and took good care of him. And that this dog escaped rather than that he was dumped/ abandoned.
Maybe, the owner is not around and/or is not on Facebook.

So, who knows or recognizes this dog? 
If you do, please, PM for details

Thank you. 
 

Too much bones, too little meat.

Too little variation in the animal protein.

Any organ meats?

I suggest you read the info on the website I provided above.

Your dog's diet is not balanced. (that may add to the issue, but may not be the cause. Time will tell)
