Getting tough: Bangkok governor says time is up for soi dogs

Recommended Posts

All that will happen is that the dog feeders will just put collars on the stray dogs..This effectively prevents the dog catchers of rounding them up..This is done in Darkside Pattaya where many packs of dogs look well fed whilst living where there are no houses although some now have collars ..I regularly see 3 motorbikers and 2 cars that

go daily and feed these pests

..export to Vietnam?

Or China. That’s actually a good idea, sell each dog for 500 baht, and let’s say there are around 200,000 In bkk, that will be 100,000,000 baht, those money could be used to buy some road sweepers so the road and be a bit cleaner, and have garbage bin every 200m is needed also.

in bangkok ladkrabang they are everywhere

the convenient resort hotel the staff encourage the soi dogs to hang around

i think some of the staff prefer the soi dogs to the farang customers

you cannot even walk outside your hotel without being growled at which the staff find very amusing

i will never stay in that hotel again!!!

Shame. Soi dogs make Thailand unique.   Human have no respect to animal  

What?

 

If something is bad that that is OK as it makes the place 'unique'?

 

So do you not want them clear up all the tonnes of plastic waste floating in the Gulf of Thailand, stop burning the forests, stop having massive road deaths, stop massive corruption, poverty, bad education, etc etc..... as they make Thailand unique?

Aswin said that BMA staff will be trained in dog catching techniques so that the public will not have to wait so long for action when they make complaints about strays. 

Interesting that "Aswin" is a brand of sticky rat-catching trays.......

At least an admission of the problem if nothing else.

What you need Sir is a cull on a massive scale   ,,,,,, look it up in the dictionary

While we are at it, can we cull boom-boom truck owners and drivers, and noisy motocy racers.....to name but a few. Oh, and politicians.

Sorting out the dog problem makes sense. 

How they choose to deal with it is up for debate.

I agree, sorting it out makes sense. That's not what they're doing, though, they're just moving the problem to somewhere else. "Up country" is about to have a Soi dog apocalypse on their hands.

Officials in 50 districts are being trained in catching techniques and strays will be carted off up country after screening

Carted-off to cause havoc in another province!  ****in marvelous!  Out of sight, out of mind!

 

I can't walk out of my village without 20/30 soi dogs eyeing-me-up for their next meal!  How many people have to get bitten/die before somebody in authority actually gives a shit!

Then they will be taken to a facility in Thapthan district of Uthai Thani - several provinces north away from Bangkok - to a dog pound there that can cater for 8,000 animals

I think the people there live nearby will not be happy 

but I don't believe anything will change
