If you kick a soi dog, someone will get in your face for kicking 'their' dog. If you drive down the soi and kill a soi dog, someone will call the cops because you killed 'their' dog. But if your dog or worse, your kid gets bitten by a soi dog, then suddenly that dog doesn't belong to anyone. So we reckoned they should just go around shooting these soi dogs and wait for the 'owners' to 'fess up. If you knock one over it suddenly becomes a cruft$ champion.

evadgib Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Eradicate, neuter, vaccinate & monitor in that order. If they introduced a tail bounty to coincide with school holidays the problem would be solved by the middle of May. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hupaponics Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Is pepper spray legal in Thailand? For personal safety I consider to have this to spray a barking dog that getting to close. Problem is is that the dog can not wash his eyes. How long time do you think the dog will be in agony? If no one is interested to clean up the streets, one have to protect himself.

You are hundreds of times more likely to contract lethal dengue or malaria than you will of being exposed to rabies in the next year. Do you wrap yourself in a mosquito net and douse yourself with insect repellent? You are more likely to be exposed to an HIV, or Hepatitis carrier than you will be to rabies. Do you avoid contact with all humans? Why then are you gripped with panic? Why aren't you demanding the mass slaughter of TB carriers? Did you know that TB can be lethal and that there are more people with TB in Thailand than there have been cases of rabies in dogs? Foreign drivers cause more crashes and deaths on the road than rabies has killed. Should we be slaughtering all foreign drivers? There is no logic in the demands of the foreigners for the mass slaughter of dogs and cats. Is is mass panic caused by ignorance and a cringeworthy poor education. These threads have shown that foreigners are in no position to criticize the intelligence of Thais, nor their education. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sir Dude Posted March 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2018 Soi Dog Foundation are nothing other than a bunch of unhelpful do-gooders that frankly are not welcome and fail to realise that it is a huge public health program. Thailand has a massive dog problem and it is long overdue to be sorted out...maybe less children attacked, less people disabled from motor-cycle accidents because of strays in the road etc. etc. etc. Any dog without a collar...bang, any dog snarling and on the street...bang, any dog without an owner...bang. Time to be indifferent about this one as it has got way out of control. I can't even go for a walk outside my estate due to the number of feral dogs just roaming around...total BS. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evadgib Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) The suggestion of vinegar or pepper spray is a red herring in relation to rabid feral vermin.

It's a dim light at the end of the tunnel as far as the eradication of the menace that are soidogs,I despise the dogs and their mass killing can't come soon enough.I would be ok with mass sterilization and let them slowly die out.cats are not a bother to me and other mammals are not a big problem in jomtien or pattaya.I have just returned from a long walk with three border collies and met a load of other dogs all healthy friend and loved, wearing collars and put on a lead if they are difficult around other dogs as is one of the ones that I walk,I did meet one little black dog that had a leg missing and was muzzled and he kept trying to attack my dogs who ignored him,it was very funny he was a cross between Hannibal Lecter and the knight from Monty python and the holy grail who kept fighting as he had his limbs hacked of. It's sad but all the stray dogs should be dealt with. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannot Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 17 hours ago, Genmai said: I think there may be confusion on your part as to what actually constitutes an animal lover. I can tell you that wantonly throwing out scraps of food to packs of rabid animals with total disregard for whatever consequences might befall other members of society is NOT what an animal lover does. The overwhelming majority of Thais subscribe to a responsibility-free sanuk happy-happy-fun-time culture that has no place in the 21st century. The out-of-control rabies and soi dog epidemic is just one of the many MANY symptoms of that cultural quirk. The level of mental maturity generally improves as you go higher up the socio-economic ladder (and in my experience improves drastically as soon as Chinese ancestry is a factor). I'm a selective animal lover. I hate dogs but I love most cats. In my area there are a few stray cats and we have been caring for the friendlier ones whom we like (the not so nice ones get told to piss off with a bucket of water). The friendlier ones used to look like mangy bones in rags. Now they are clean, silky smooth and look like they can win awards. We regularly take them to the vet to get vaccines, de-worming, check ups, etc. They eat high quality nutritionally balanced cat food, not the fake fish pellet crap from China (that smells like Doritos) mixed with stale rice that the Thais insist on feeding them here. We also train them into socializing properly with the human residents - if the cats do something out of line they get a smack on the ass and eventually turn into well-behaved animals that are a pleasure to have around the house. Are they still considered to be stray cats? Yes. Are their lives immeasurably improved by responsible animal ownership on our part? Yes. Are they a dangerous nuisance to anyone? No. Every time I go to the nearby 7/11 I am horrified at the sight of the stray dog that the Thai locals 'care' for. The thing looks like something out of The Walking Dead, rotting from the inside out and with most of its fur gone. For the last 2 years it has been wasting away, leaking various fluids onto the steps outside the 7/11 door. I don't know how it has survived this long but it is a sorry sight to see. I highly doubt that animal has ever seen the inside of a vet's office. I have yet to meet a Thai whom I can consider to be a real animal lover. To be an animal lover one has to assume full responsibility for the animal which they care for. That involves fixing them up medically, getting all the vaccinations, reinforcing positive behaviours while punishing negative behaviours and (most importantly) making sure that the animal is not a dangerous nuisance to society. If someone isn't ready to make that level of commitment then they have no business taking care of strays or any animal whatsoever. I don't care how much the Thais go on and on about how wonderful and compassionate and caring and friendly their bullshit culture is - I'm sorry but if today you feed a rabid dog (out of so-called "compassion") and tomorrow that dog bites a child then there absolutely is a degree of blame which you have to face. At the very very least if those same so-called "animal lovers" can afford to spend money on all the frivolous crap in their lives (iphones, makeup, fancy bikes, smokes, alcohol, hookers, etc) they can cough up a few hundred baht for vaccinations. There is no excuse. Gawd you feed the cats, hows the local bird population doing now then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AboutThaim Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 17 hours ago, JOC said: Just what we needed....A vegan joining the choir...... Yes. I've often wondered what these vegan people want. If we all stopped eating meat what would they suggest we do with the animals that farmers have bred for food? Would they expect the farmers to carry on feeding their animals until they died of old age? What about the offspring of these animals or would they expect farmers to pay to have them neutered? The world is overpopulated with people? It would soon be overpopulated with animals just like Thailand is overpopulated with dogs. When I see a vegan or greenie come up with any solution to any of their rants...well, just won't happen. I'm sure they would rather cull humans than animals that humans have bred (aka given life to) and provided for. And, yes, to make a profit in most cases.

People are watching. You will be prosecuted and most likely incur a criminal record leading to your deportation. More likely you will poison someone's companion animal and suffer retribution such as a beating or a bullet in the head. It has happened before.
