Start put annual tax on dogs heavily fine owners who dont pay dog tax this will really shrink the problem. All agressive dogs with or without owner can be killed too I can't see too many Thai dog owners paying a stupid dog tax and lots of falangs getting fined for not having it. How is that supposed to solve the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Media1 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I was running on the back along na Jomtien 5 years ago past the temple on shore line. 5 dogs started the pursuit. 1 instigator luckily a large tree stalk was handy. I became the agressor dogs left. They believe it's all there's. Temples feed these beasts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton Rd Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 8 hours ago, xylophone said: As I and many others have said, there is a feral/soi dog problem here which needs to be addressed. It is not rocket science and this place needs a clean up in this area, which could be easily initiated with a small amount of money and new by-laws relating to dog ownership. Take this from one who has been "attacked" by one. This situation is easily rectified. It is not easily rectified as the Thais don't see it as a real problem, are two main reasons for this, Buddhism and another the other one that I think we are all aware of.

vinegarbase Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 The real reason I am so afraid of Thai dogs roaming the street is because I know if a dog attacks me I will kill it instantly, that's my rule, you bite me you die. As a result I am sure I will get blamed by the 'Buddhist' Thai's for killing a dog and somehow make me the bad guy. That is the real danger in this backwards place.

oldrunner Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Everyone who travels Thai beaches or SOIs for exercise should carry a sword and administer lethal justice on the spot. How many people are attacked by feral cats, anyone have experience? I get scratched and occasionally bitten by my cat, typical female of the species.

David Walden Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 11 hours ago, YetAnother said: packs of stray dogs on a popular beach...; these are the kinds of stories that affect tourism and thailand's reputation, not the usual drivel cited by so many thai officials who havent the slightest clue what thailand's international reputation is Each day almost every day I walk 6 to 8 km along Cha-am Beach. Almost every day on my walk I am set upon by at least one of the many stray dogs who belong to no one and roam around Cha-am at will perhaps 300 or 400 or more. Some of these dogs would like to bite and savage me given half a chance. I alway carry a large umbrella not for the rain but to help me fight off the dogs who will attack often and I am a dog lover but not of these dogs. I'm 76 y/o now and still good at frighting these dogs had lots of practice? I also carry 3 large rocks in my pocket and often uses them by throwing them at the dogs that attack, that is often!!! They always scatter when I confront them. This is quite a normal situation in many location in Thailand. The locals seem to think it's funny and get some pleasure from seeing farangs defending themselves from these dogs. "if you feed them they will not attack you," they say "maybe?" And they are wondering why Western tourist numbers are dropping, Cha-am is presently in tourist crises. The rule is if you are a 16 y/o girl tourist or anyone don't go walking alone along the beach front anywhere. In Thailand Dogs are more important then humans and seem to be protected by the Monks, don't go for walks on your own but if you do get ready to fight. If you fight off a savage dog and hurt it there maybe a price to pay. This situation is very common in all Thailand...and really you must not forget that!!!

So those would then be put too sleep. Soon as Thais need to pay for a yearly dog tax then no longer they want dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon537687643 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Gotta love the “less popular religion” in Thailand that doesn’t believe all dogs are precious.

Nothing beats an early morning walk along a beautiful beach. I’ve had a previous experience in Samui but personally was not bitten but a lady in the Hotel did and tbh the Hotel didn’t give a <deleted>. I returned to the same resort a year on and there were hardly any Soi Dogs to be seen so I guessing they have had some sort of cull. I still carry a large stick in case and am co Stanton looking over my shoulder which kind of spoils the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Walden Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 13 hours ago, White Christmas13 said: one dog mauled a 4 year old boy in Perth today dog destroyed same day Yes, if and when it is likely that the owners of the dog that has bitten someone be found the courts will often fine that owner up to $10,000. In Busselton (200km south of Perth West Aus) 2 years ago we had 2 cases where owners were fined the full $10,000 fine for allowing their dogs bite people. They were then subject to civil action. Big dogs biting people in Aus can cost everything you have (and more). Your dog maybe put down also. If your dog is found just on your verge outside your house by a Council Ranger running free it will cost you about $1,000 to get it back plus $70 boarding fee for each day it is unclaimed from the pound. After 10 days it is put down if no one wants it. Usually after 10 days anyone can legally claim it "if" they pay the fine and boarding costs and about $400 medical check up by a Vet...don't see any dogs running free around my home town in Australia now days...none. Much the same in most Western Countries. Not Thailand. They could catch them and gift them to Vietnam, they see them as good tucker. (Aussie slang word for food). They really love them.

So why is it that the Thai powers that be , who must be aware of the dangers that soi dogs bring ( rabies & attacks ) , choose to ignore the problem ? Is it just apathy or part of the Buddhist belief ? There was once a dog catcher who would come to our soi with many dogs in a cage on the back of a pick up but that was last seen 4 years ago . I was told that he would take his catch to Cambodia . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just going by what was reported and that did not make any sense and, therefore, the article is not accurate. There may well have been a huge element of exaggeration or fabrication. Or do you think that what was reported was consistent? There are, as is usual, slight inconsistencies in the language used, but it’s clear (to me anyway) what occurred so I don’t feel the need to play Quincy.

mikebell Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Thailand will always be a 3rd World country whilst it treats its tourists and citizens as dog food. There's no will to do anything about it: rogue taxi drivers/owner less soi dogs can be cured within a month if there was a functioning police force.
