As "a rant" this needed to be said. All it needs now is for a person with authority to implement a level headed version.
Hope you're not holding your breathe Amigo.
If we get lucky they'll form a committee, and and then 5 other committees to study the first committee & hope everybody forgets about the original committee.
Kinda sounds like the US Congress I know, but Hey! That's what they do in Thailand. They gotta copy somebody somewhere.

Yeah, always easiest to call the the guy who makes sense "Insensitive".
Still waiting for PumPuy to tell me how many strays he's taken in & de-wormed (although heart worms in adult dogs are almost impossible to get rid of).
I know a LOT about dogs.
I've read volumes on training them and caring for them.
I've even taken care of a couple kennels, shoved more worm pills down dogs' throats than I can count, picked fleas & ticks off them, dipped them in a 55 gallon drum to rid them of parasites,
I've cut their hair, & trimmed their hair. I LOVE dogs, BUT....
I could walk down just Soi Khaotalo in Pattaya and melt the barrel on a .22 rifle culling mutts. I wouldn't need a Gun-Bearer, just an Ammo Bearer....probably two of them with about 1,000 rounds each.
I'd sleep like a baby, as long as I had a crew to bury them or haul them to Vietnam.
I LOVE most dogs, but God/Bhudda/Allah you name it, gave MAN dominion over the Earth.

Total B.S...
How many strays have you taken in there Buddy?
Are they spayed/neutered?
Do you keep them inside out of the mosquitoes so they don't get heart worms. If not, do you buy worm pills for all of them?
If you go to Had Nual on Koh Larn and a monkey bites you or your daughter, would you feel the same? If a lion snatched your kid out of a tent on an African safari?
Soi dogs are just disease-ridden Lions and Tigers and Bears = WILD animals.
Granted, most have heart-worms so bad they can barely move, thus 90% are harmless.
I've run across my fair share of aggressive ones though...when my little 5-6 years old daughter with me.
Scared me half to death yet I managed.
Scared my baby girl 97 ways to Sunday.. She had her training wheels on her bicycle, I had my bike, just us, smelling the Jasmine flowers, enjoying life, in a small residential area & here come these junkyard dogs at us!
I LOVE a good dog or cat, lion, tiger or bear. I like whales & sharks too.
LUCKILY, I have so far been able to catch every dog that attacked me, right in the throat...I've done it in the US too, but mostly Thailand with a good solid shoe.
That's an ABSOLUTE DEATH SENTENCE for a dog around me in the US.
Peel out a rifle or a pistol & bang.
Grab a shovel & bury it.
Even the cops/animal control in the US will give a dog a lethal injection (put it to sleep as they say) if it gets aggressive against a child.
I've had to shoot a couple dogs.
Did I mention I LIKE dogs?
I've cried my eyes out over dogs that I loved, but Thailand needs a massive culling of the vermin.
Probably help their GDP if they ship them to Vietnam.
-----------------------------
I got into an argument somehow w/ my father-in-laws's dog in Surin once.
His name was Daam (Blackie).
I had to kick to be-Jesus out of the hateful mutt, and I was doing everything I could to be nice to him.
This is what he looked like.
Luckily that mutt died soon after (no thanks to me unfortunately) & we got Dad a Golden Retriever.
I made sure the mutt got all her worm pills & has flea/tick medicine always.
My wife's Mom & Dad had never seen a dog that was taken care before.
Her name was Chompoo and was an absolute character.
Super sweet mutt. Followed Dad everywhere he went.
If she'd ever snapped at my kid though, I'd have grabbed the nearest meat cleaver & killed her on the spot.
She was just always a super sweet, funny dog though & LOVED everybody. I reckon she was about 10 years old when she passed away.
I LOVE dogs, but I have zero qualms for those that don't make the team, which is 99% of the strays in Thailand.

I gettya. I used to do garage sales at home years ago. Each time an Indian or the equivalent walked up the driveway I would mentally double the price of any item.
Next you tell him, "But just for you Sir, I can give you special price today" & drop your doubled price by 1 or 2%.
If you were really good you'd sell him a tailored suit while you were at it.

Sorry Dude.
I don't watch porn. I just appreciate women who look nice.
Nothing against porn nor hookers.
I just like a woman who holds her age well.

Cheaper by far in Thailand. She can't earn much as a soft core model...as she's a decade or at least 3-5 years too old. Photographs will have to be heavily photoshopped with plenty of makeup to hide her aging. Her name will earn her some disposable income, but not a significant amount, barely enough to keep up with her credit cards.In the US, she could sell merchandise/calendars, do fan events, book different venues as a dancer/entertainer, but the money for that isn't nearly as lucrative as in the US. Or even writing a tell-all book, a very American/European thing for porn stars to do these days.
You sound like a man who is well informed on the silicone & US porn business.
Personally, I do not like silicone in the least.
I met a gal in Pattaya once w/rubber tits that had me fooled quite well. Said it cost her 40,000 baht.
She was fun enough for me to overlook the rubber tits though.
I agree w/ you in that she's getting to be a bit long in the tooth for her chosen profession.

Sometimes I wonder if it just me or am I becoming bitter as I age. My dislike list is growing longer by the day. My sainted old grandmother told me not to hate people and I try to live by that. The down side of retirement is that I know get to learn and study politics and realize its been a shitty effort for decades. Disgusting.
Ah Mate, we just need another 18 or 20 coup's & it'll be alright.
I'll be 50 in a few months, but I realized about 10 years ago, that while politics may be utterly hopeless, they can also be hilarious at the same time.
No matter what happens, it's always funny.

Rather runs contrary to what global entities are saying. They are touting LOS as the land of scams while the TAT is touting it as the land of smiles. Having a world jet ski competition at a time when they have a bad reputation outcry seems to fly in the face of popular thinking well which is nothing new for Thailand. The people saying these nasty things better not set foot on Thai soil or its of to the gaol with them and a computer crimes act charge slapped on them. They will be made to pay for their dastardly deed right dick??
It's truly sad, ain't it El G, that precious few people will even call it LOS anymore?
I know I can't bring myself to do it.

I really can hardly believe what I read here .... What are all you dog haters doing in Thailand ? In a country where people believe in the teachings of Buddha , to respect all life ...
I can just tell all of you that it definitely is better for you to leave this contry , you do NOT fit here . Better go back where you come from and spread your hate over there .
Just one of the the soi dogs is worth more than all of you .
So adopt the next 100 soi dogs you see.
PLEASE DO THAT!?
If you and folks with such bleeding hearts as you claim to have, would do that, then us folks who think there are too many mangy, stray, aggressive mutts would have nothing to complain about.

Some Thai people also fear soi dogs but they will never think about killing them. They belong to the Thai life, same the monkeys, the snakes and the pigeons.
Only strangers complain about soi dogs and snakes and pigeons... Strange, isn't it?
If someone wants better car drivers on better roads, less noise after 10PM, no need to extend your permission of stay every year, no 10 times higher prices in national parks and no soi dogs, that someone should stay in his home country.
Who chooses to live in Thailand should not only take the sun, the cheap prices and the nice life but also accept the dark side of the host country.
Why should any country have a "Dark Side"?
Please, if you can fix things somewhere else, then, please do so.
It's called being a consultant = somebody who looks from the outside at what's happening.
I tried doing it for a couple years in Thailand. It went over like a Led Zepplin, just not as good as the band.

What you are saying, is the equivalent of me saying that 4,000+ shootings last year in Chicago...Who cares? It's just the way it is, so we should never address that issue.
Get rid of the mangy mutts!

Hey. Seagal. How did you kill them? You bit them to death? Or what ?
Not sure about Seagul, but I often wear work boots in Thailand. Flip-flops/Roman sandals ain't worth a hoot.
Never managed to kill one, but I HAVE caught at least 5 or 6 in a full-on charge at me right in their throat.
I gave them a punt like the game winning shot at the Super Bowl or World Cup.
I get as aggressive w/ them as they get at me.....And all I'm doing is walking by!
All in a day's work in Thailand.

Every major town have organisations that are involved in stray dog care, get involved (even if only with money) instead of shouting from the sideline, which will change nothing.
Give me a .22 rifle & I'll shoot from the sideline.
I like animals same as my 11 year old daughter, but there comes a time when a culling is appropriate.
That time was about 50 years ago in Thailand.
How many soi dogs do you see on the streets of London or Munich or New York?
I'm in Florida right now & not a soi dog in sight.
My 84 year old Aunt has 3 dogs, two of which I'd shoot & bury without blinking an eye.
The third mutt is cool though. She doesn't bark unless it's imprtant & she keeps the varmints (squirrels, rats, moles, cats, possums etc at bay).
I like cats too, but even better, I like a dog that will hunt.

Wow! You amaze me!
How do you get informed. Nah, for people not thinking at all, it´s just not easy.
For the people that thinks and plan their trip, there are news to read before go. Just not buy a ticket and think you know everything.
Other sources is this forum, social media and friends that went before.
Hope you get it now.When I first arrived in 1999, there was naught but brochures.
You are correct though, in that today, a simple Google search will show you most anything you might be curious about.

I have walked through packs of dogs, stepped over tens of dogs in 711 doors and have never been attacked. They smell fear and attack only those they know fear them. The only time I was nearly attacked by an animal in Thailand was by a monkey at a temple. I made the mistake of making eye contact with a dominant male and he came for me. Fortunately he stopped his charge when I lowered my eyes. The sollution is for individuals to sponsor muting of stray dogs, because if you wait for government you will never see the end of stray dogs. If every foreigner sponsors the muting of 1 dog a year (less than B 2000) we will have very few strays left after 5 years. Every major town have organisations that are involved in stray dog care, get involved (even if only with money) instead of shouting from the sideline, which will change nothing.
Imagine your 8 or 10 year old daughter going for an ice cream at 7-11?
She won't have the Clint Eastwood eye you have.
One snapped at me next to a community swimming pool once in Pattaya....all I did was walk by...and they let him lay in front of the bar!
Needless to say they had a tough time selling snacks & drinks there & just couldn't figure out why?
Barmaids/"waitresses" constantly on Farcebook, leaving empty/finished food plates all over = a bazillion flies, evil dog at the bar.
Yes they went out of business.

I think everyone who is opposed to culling Soi Dogs should adopt at least 50 or 100.
Feed them, pay for their medical care....open arms....It'd be just like Europe.
