Popular Post evadgib Posted March 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) At my local Tesco on Sunday I had to walk past a pack of resident soi dogs slumbering in the car park in order to reach my car which was down a ramp on the lower level. When I passed them they barely stirred, but as soon as I walked down the ramp they leapt up an went ballistic. I immediately turned & walked back up the ramp while looking straight at the alpha male to let everyone know that I was having none of it. Had I not done so or chosen to run it is fair to assume that I would have been bitten as the nearest animals were mighty close... Feral dogs & cats are a health hazard and should be destroyed!

Wilsonandson Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Quote Location: 7-11 beside Donmuang Railway Station, opposite to Don Muang Airport, // animal type: dog // appearance: white Circulation of the body. // Symptoms: vomiting, drooling, lethargy, slow response. A suspected case report from 7th March. I went to my local 7/11 today, thankfully the 3 stray dogs I had to step over didn't have rabies. When will it sink in to peoples heads that rabies is a deadly disease! Get rid of those strays outside the 7/11 they are a health hazard! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buffalo in Buri Ram found on Friday last week was confirmed yesterday to have died from rabies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The manic Posted March 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2018 On 3/15/2018 at 9:24 PM, Stupooey said: After scrolling through post after post proclaiming that "something must be done", it was a relief to reach no. 139 to find someone who was actually doing something to tackle the problem. Unfortunately the capture, vaccinate, neuter, release solution does not appeal to the "flog 'em, hang 'em, shoot 'em" TV brigade, as subsequent comments on this post have all been scathing. My experience tells me otherwise. Our village has a relatively minor soi dog problem, which we have gone a small way to alleviating by adopting eight stray puppies and having them vaccinated and neutered. Cycling round the area has shown that the strays tend to ignore us - it is the dogs who think we have invaded their territory by cycling past their houses that tend to be aggressive. However, a nearby town did have a stray dog problem. On enquiring, we found out that a local lady was running a capture, vaccinate, neuter, release programme in conjunction with a local vet, constrained only by lack of funds. We have therefore helped her financially and also with food to give the dogs in her care. We also discovered that a local organisation had an excess of funds which they wanted to donate to a good cause. Having seen how the programme operated, and noticing the positive effect it was having on the local dog population, they were persuaded to lend their support. This type of action certainly works at a local level. Maybe if the almost 200 posters who have advocated a more radical, but probably unworkable, solution were to actually take some action instead of just blustering, then it would go some way to solving the problem. They still bite people. They still savage children. The dogs get sick and, riddled with sores, wounds, abscesses, parasites etc. Killing animal, when appropriate,has always been part of human responsibility and duty of care. The silly, anthropomorphic sentimentality of some posters is endangering us all and in particular small children. Not one single dog is worth the life of a child or any human for that matter. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A civilized society would never allow dogs to breed to the point that there were ANY unwanted dogs to be put in pounds. Pounds, IMO are a sign of a society that doesn't care about animals. Many strays were puppies that were given as a gift and were unwanted when they got big. That should never be allowed. If someone doesn't want a pet, they should have to give it away, sell it or have it put down themselves. Pounds are not only for unwanted dogs but for those that escape custody. Pounds have NOTHING to do with dogs breeding. Learn about what Battersea dogs home does before calling UK an uncivilised country which it isn't when it comes to animals. Many dogs are gifted to Battersea if they become unwanted or unable to be cared for and then, hopefully, found new homes. Thailand just lets them loose on the street because there are no POUNDS to take them too. Pounds would make for a better and more civilised society. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluedoc Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 When are the people governing Thailand going to wake up. There are bad things going on in Thailand. Huge corruption ie. vaping/cigarette companies. Vaping is far more healthier than smoking except in the pocket of the man that makes the decision. Rabies is a serious problem. Stray dogs, call them soi or whatever you want are a major spread of rabies, I’m sorry for the soi dog charities, but they need to wise up. It is causing death to thai people and a threat to tourism.

In countries like the UK the "dog problem" involves tiny numbers compared to Thailand so operations like Battersea can be successful. In Bangkok alone you'll need to impound 750,000 dogs. the total figure for the UK is over100,000 and the pounds etc are however at "breaking point". so Thailand with no proper infrastructure or policies is quite unable to cope. the other problem is that removing dogs from packs enables other dogs to move in to take their place and this results in the spreading of rabies.

bluedoc Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 It’s stupid to impound them. Don’t impound, catch them as humanely as possible. And dispatch them as humanely as possible. But get rid. They shit anywhere, on streets, on grass on the beach, young children play on the beach and inadvertently get ill because of dogs. Cull all dogs on the loose, with or without collar.

Unlikely - 4 litters a year maybe, but the dog will probably die after 3 years. however if you look at the extended family that results, it can expand to over 65,000 in 6 years.... As you point out though, dogs breed fast and unless you simultaneously kill the entire population dogs from other areas just replace the culled animals and the population continues to grow and the spread ofdiseases like rabies increases. however dogs won't live or breed in areas where there is no food.
