Rimmer Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Stray dogs rounded up in Jomtien PATTAYA:Pattaya municipal officers and local veterinarians rounded up stray dogs in Jomtien Beach to administer rabies shots. The city hall police, led by Somchai Inruang, and vets on March 20 captured “a good number” of wild dogs for the vaccinations after Chonburi was declared a “red zone” for rabies outbreaks. While Pattaya has a large population of stray dogs across the city, Jomtien has the most due to local feeding them. However, a number of tourists complained that they were scared of the wild canines due to their potential to have rabies. Authorities said they will continue to make field trips to gather and vaccinate dogs. -- © Copyright Pattaya Mail 2018-03-30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume they dont want to run the risk of getting bitten. Knock em out, give them the vaccine and wander away. Shame they didn't neuter them at the same time, so the problem of Soi dogs naturally dies away in time. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Last time I saw dogs being darted by blowpipes it wasn't to knock them out to vaccinate them. One shot, one kill. This was in Thailand (Phitsanulok) about 10-15 years ago. Not saying that is what is happening here, just that it has happened before. The people with the blowpipes were I believe Cambodians and it was a major cull in certain areas. Don't believe it doesn't happen because it is a Buddhist country because it does. Seems a bit expensive knocking them out, vaccinating them and then releasing them again. Anyone seen the vaccinated dogs afterwards?

The dogs are acquired when small and adorable, then dumped when they get bigger, becoming the new wave of soi wanderers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at Ban Amphur the other day, there were only two dogs, last year had 75 dogs at the car park, they seem to be doing something positive about it. Whether they just rounded them up to innoculate them or get rid completely, only time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean they then let the go again??? It is not just rabies, these dogs are a danger, I have seen them attack motor cyclists, no point in giving them a rabies shoot unless they are going to be homed. Or better still I understand there are places in Thailand where they eat dog meat, could ship them there. Purr... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsve Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 And do they mark the dogs that have got the vaccine in any way? Or they just go out a and give the same dogs vaccine day after day and miss the other half? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
