wildewillie89 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) I asked about such a case. Legally, if Tessaban consider it a nuisance, they can remove the dogs if they are soi, actually even if they are owned the dogs then fall into their responsibility as it moves into nuisance law. However, I doubt many officers will care about a pretty standard issue. What you can do, is get signatures to make them care so to speak. So if everyone in the immediate area is sick of it as well and all sign, it will force the Tessaban to act (as the Mayor doesn't want to potentially lose all those votes). Although, whereas in the past the dog was sent to a vet and put to sleep, some do gooders forced the laws to be changed. So now many Tessabans sack the dog and dump it in another Tessaban creating further issues re population control.

We had barking dogs next door and it kept them away and on the other side of our neighbor's house! Perfect. I got it back home. But I'm sure you can find them here now.

The Chocolate flavored kind, they love it, Murine eye drops on some meat works as well. They will crap stinky water for a week - so I was told by an US Army Vet. I hate dog owners that don't take care of their dogs, and tach them when to bark and not to bark.. Edited October 10, 2017 by TunnelRat69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rori ban khun fang Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 In Vietnam, Laos, the Philippines they love BBQ dog. In my garden we have and hold BBQ parties. Maybe an idea to have one yourself. Invite the neighbourhood but ask them to bring Beverages as you take care of the meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I'd spend a few baht getting posters made that explain 'Rabies' and how soi dogs are infected. Create a crisis among all the soi so that every one sees the menace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is much harder to get rid of dogs in the last few years as they toughened up all the laws. The Mrs new portfolio deals with these things, amongst many other things, so she has to go to the relevant department conferences each year and those sorts of methods are illegal. Actually, they have tightened the law so much that really all officials can do is put problem dogs in sacks and give them to another area and hope they don't make their way back (unless a health risk). Which is also illegal but easier to hide. Some animal do gooders successfully campaigned a while back to stop the trucks and other means - not thinking about future ramifications.

autanic Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I think cruelty to animals is abhorrent. If you really want to make a difference, then you need to be pro-active. Listen carefully, Dogs are very territorial and these Soi Dogs are more so than your average pooch. You need to capture a dog without causing distress to the animal. So no chasing it around the estate with a lead in your hand and a stick in the other. Once the animal has been capture please take it to the vet and get it up to date with its jabs and have it either neutered or spayed, this will ensure the sire line dies with that animal. If the animals can't reproduce then they will simply grow old and die off. End of problem and you have helped make the world a better place. Repeat until there are no more strays in the area.

While that sounds great and all that I don't think anyone wants to wait 5 to 10 years for the dogs to pass on. I have been fortunate where I live that owners fence their dogs. However they do bark. People's behavior here with dogs and cats is same as in the states. Many get a puppy and when older ignore it. So it sits in the yard and barks all the time. In my time here I find most feral soi dogs are not an issue. Sure they roam and crap/piss everywhere but they don't bark much. It's usually the pets of owners that are the problem.

LannaGuy Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I love animals but feral soi dogs are a 'pest' along with pigeons, rats and cockroaches. They carry tics, fleas and all sorts of disease and they have a poor 'standard of living'. The obvious thing is to catch, neuter and if cannot be re-homed...euthanise. Dog feels nothing just goes to sleep - thank God for Nembutal (the peaceful pill). All of this could be avoided if Thais (mostly) had responsibility for their dogs and really believed in 'karma' as it is THEIR actions which have led to this epidemic of soi muts. Can't see it changing and what is one to do if confronted by pack of territorial dogs? What pees me orf more is the old Thai ladies who feed these muts as some sort of 'kindness' when, in fact, they contribute greatly to the problem.
