They're not getting rid of them, they're moving them up country so it's not their problem anymore. Bangkokians already consider people up country to have the same social standing as dogs, so why not? 1

So who's going to look after Millions of soi dogs? For how long? Then let them go and it starts all over again. There's only One way to fix the problem and this ain't It everyone knows that. It's just a lot of Bullshit talk and nothing is going to Reduce the soi dog population if they don't exterminate them. Shit Why Bother Nothing is going to be done. 1 2
toenail Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Thais who think they’re doing “good merit” by feeding the neighborhood soi dog food scraps need to realize ( be educated) that it is also their responsibility to take these “neighborhood pets” to the vet. 1
dallen52 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 So what happened to the 340 baht registration fee for all dogs and cats... U sure that there isn't a waiting oriental market for these sanitized and vaccinated products?

Oh...okay. Then how about getting rid (moving or despatching or transporting etc.) them out of Bangkok?

The owners in many cases ( if around) appear like they couldn't care less if they ripped you apart. 22 on my soi. And that's just the 3 houses facing me. Without the loose rabble that come on the sniff at nighttime. Why not ship the dogs and owners up country? They have similar mentality and attack instincts. 1 1

manchega Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Don't they usually just give these things to temples so the monks can keep to their vows, its probably morally corrupt as well, but keeps them off the street

Get rid of them all in one fell swoop.... ... of course, no harm will come to the dogs, thats just un-Buddhist.... until out of sight out of mind, of course... but by then it will be too late. There will be arguments of inhumane treatment, but they are animals not humans, they are pests, they bite... this will be better in the long term. It is unfortunate that a 'cull' has become necessary but a history of inaction has left this legacy... What makes you think that human beings are more important than animals ? 1 1

fakename Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 This idea is never going to get off the ground. Not only expensive, but is there a dog pound anywhere in the world that could hold hundreds of thousands of dogs? As with all the other great ideas here, this will only work for two days, then they will come up with another idea, then another!
bubba Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 17 hours ago, iforget said: Plain stupidity yet again. There are an estimated 640,000 street dogs in Bangkok. Lock up 8,000 and all you are doing is donating extra food (garbage) to the remaining 560,000. Well fed dogs breed faster than starving dogs. Bangkok govt would do better to sort out the garbage stinking up the streets of Bangkok. This would help to control population growth of street dogs, feral cats and rats. But for population reduction, sterilisation and vaccination take time but they are the ONLY effective remedy. Anything else is a pointless waste of effort, manpower and funds. As for impounding the dogs, has no one learned any lessons from earlier this year when 3,000+ dogs were dumped in a pound in Nakhon Phanom? In a matter of weeks around 2,300 were dead from starvation, disease and injuries in fights. This is humane? No. It's not. Even if you loathe street dogs, you have to understand that kneejerk slaughter/impounding WILL NOT WORK. In a matter of days, weeks or months strays will be back on your street. They'll just be different strays. Tell the Bangkok authorities to be patient and put serious effort behind sterilsation and vaccination. Seriously? So where are the resources and what would the timetable be for spaying/neutering 640,000 dogs? Let's just say there were resources for spaying/neutering 100 dogs/day, which is quite a large number requiring many full-time vets as well as facilities together with systems to track and presumably transport the dogs back to where they came from. That would require more than 17 years to complete and during that time, more would be born each day than could be spay/neutered. What a a ridiculous suggestion. 2
gerritkaew Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Best news in years !! I hope people who lives in villages can also catsh them and bring them to a shelter, daed or alive..
