Video: Farang to the rescue after soi dog takes a beating from motorcycle taxi guy

 

video screenshot

 

A westerner in Chonburi was filmed taking pity on a soi dog after a motorcycle taxi rider was shown attacking it with a stick outside a convenience store.

 

In a sentimental video accompanied by instrumental music produced by Thai Rath Michael James Benz was filmed stepping in to save

"Jao John".

 

And the black mutt certainly seemed to have taken a liking to his savior as it liked his ankle.

 

Mr Benz was wearing a T-shirt that proclaimed: List of people I like: 1. Dogs.

 

Nothing else was listed.

 

The animal was shown being loaded up onto Mr Benz's conveyance that appeared to be a motorcycle with side car.

 

This time a more kindly motorcycle taxi guy was helping cradle the animal.

 

Thai Rath said "John" was heading for a new life.

 

His name was taken from the first syllable for the Thai word for stray.

 

More than 300,000 people have viewed the tear jerking video.

The dog has a collar on. Maybe it already has an owner. He could get problems for stealing it if the owner sees that video.

A chance to make a quick buck in compensation.

Another sick puppy. I'm not talking about the dog! 

[stanleycoin]

This must be fake news.

We all know it take 3 motor cycle taxi guys to beat anything up.

Is that why the clip was cut short !!!!!!!!!!!

Dear, farang! Dogs are not listed as people. It´s an animal. Actually it goes under the family of mammals.
 

On the other hand, I can see him eating on the dog biscuits, so a warning to all out there. Don´t eat dog food, you can end up like the man in the video!

[johng]

I used to love eating the dog biscuits when I was a kid..the dog didn't mind my mum did ?

fortunately  I didn't end up like the man in the video!

    Also, humans belong to mammals, because they give birth to babies.

poor dogs? they're dogs. it's not like they have bank accounts.

[BEVUP]

Staged 

How amazing it was that a Farang happened to be there wearing a brand new shirt, whilst carrying a bag of dog biscuits 

from home, as they were in a clear plastic bag ( it's not as though he rushed in the 7/11 to buy them in pitty )

Quite often I see them sleeping inside the store..so I go to the cashier and ask

"how much for a kilogram of dog" that sometimes gets the mutt shooed out for a while. ?

Really, is this the new definition of what a mammal is?

Someone should inform the biologists that they have it all wrong.

 

Which group of animals do the 'egg laying' Duck Billed Platypus fit into, are these now re-classified as non flying birds or warm blooded reptiles?

And that was relevant how. Did you just list dogs as humans or people?

Dear so called people, some people act more like animals and some animals more like people. "The more people I meet the more I like my dog", seems quite appropriate at times like this!

Yeah, sure! You like dogs better than people. That´s perfectly ok. I just hope that you ain´t getting so stupid that you put on a shirt that is trying to state that dogs are people.

If they are, or are not, more like people is irrelevant. That deos not make them people.

[ronaldo0]

The guy is called Michael baines I think. He works with local municipality in the area where he lives and owns a restaurant. He helps rescue and try to find homes for street dogs. 

This dog was well known in the area for living where it was and was fed and looked after by locals. Obviously some bitter taxi guy got jealous and decided he didn't like seeing the dog get more attention than him so hit it. It was filmed and the guy is getting a charge made against him for hitting the dog under the animal act with the video as evidence.

Mrs Antonymous loves hers and we wear them regularly when out walking with dogs. We are not stupid.

 

Anyone who takes objection to the wording lacks a sense of humour as well as humanity.

 

You can order yours (his and hers) from the website and support a worthy cause.

Where is Tim sharky when we need him ? Did the police explained him that it's not good to complain them on video ?

I was under the impression that he is taking the dog OFF the street. If so, how can he be adding to the problem?

 

 

He takes a few off the street but by no means all, read his blog and you will see that.

Okey! Then there is only one other solution. That would be difficulty to read and understand what has just been read.

Just to be clear, I am not the man with the website. Just wholeheartedly support what he does...and bought the t-shirts.
