Soi Dog’s ‘Snap for Stray’ underway

By The Thaiger

 

 

Last Saturday Soi Dog Foundation in Mai Khao arranged an event to launch its first ever photo contest ‘Snap for Stray’ which aims to show the beauty of all soi dogs through the lens of the photographers.

 

The event featured a talk with famous dog blogger, Antony ‘Guy’ Kawin Thoong, who is the owner and admin of the page ‘Captain Quint’s Family’, followed by a tour around the Gill Dalley Sanctuary.

 

The launching event of Snap for Stray opened for both registered contestants and walk-in contestants as well as observers. The contestants were able to book their preferred dogs, which have been checked by the Soi Dog’s Adoption team to be friendly, active and easy to handle. Apart from the dogs, they could also schedule their date and time for the photography session, where they will be accompanied by Soi Dog staff to make sure that the photo shoot runs smoothly.

I will have the one on the sofa but he looks angry?

Really! What´s next? Should we all put them on pillars and pray to them?

Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder!

I often wonder why when I see dogs roaming the streets in Thailand.

 

Cancerous, mangy, busted twisted legs, vaginal prolapse, scars, dwarfism, lice ticks and fleas, maybe rabies too. Yes please send me the calendar of these beautiful creatures.

Love how they do feeding rounds and place the food right next to the road, especially on the blind corners, so much forethought.?

My soi mutt is 20 years old this year.  He does his business on sewer grates and is quiet most of the time.  If I did not travel so much, I would adopt more. 

Are they for real? wasting time , get rid of Soi dogs the Right way Exterminate them all and make any Dog Owner Register their Dog/s and Vaccinate them.

I don't understand why the pictures are not of actual Soi Dogs in there natural environment.
